How beautiful can astringency be

When I sprayed Floral Lilac I can hardly believe my nose. Because this astringency that comes towards me is marked by an attractive note that I have not experienced for a long time. Quite different from the fresh scents. Very different from the powdery scents. Completely different from the classics, which are usually on the fragrance shelves
After some research, I found out that the astringency and bitterness comes from the lilac in the fragrance. Without really being able to explain it, this fragrance exudes a sense of nostalgia without seeming old. The jasmine plays only a minor role, but adds a touch of creaminess in this flower garden and adds its mustard
Lilac in particular is said to help against muscle tension in aromatherapy, which explains why I feel so infinitely relaxed. Relaxed and hypnotized in a positive way at the same time.

Even if he was considered feminine here, I wouldn't do that. For me, it is wearable by both men and women and can therefore indeed be declared unisex.

At the end I only hear this cotton note. Not powdery, not fresh, but attractive
I would simply classify him as cultivated, nostalgic and incomparable. Even if the durability is not enormous, its effect is definitely.

... and I can only ask one last time: How attractive and beautiful can astringency be?

I actually like lilacs very much, but here I found them rather musty than tart. Sweet, i.e. vanilla, candyfloss, caramel or something like that, I don't notice it either (flowers are not sweet, but flowery, otherwise you can save the classification "flowery-sweet", that would be doubled...). The musty one here probably comes from a certain musk that I don't like. So I suggest: "flowery musty" :P

Dear Flirty, that sounds unexpectedly interesting again .... where cologne is written on it, I usually steer clear of it, but you made this variation interesting for me with your well-formulated and inspiring comment...add it to my watch list! Best regards

Tart scents are unbeatable for me in summer.

Interesting the different scent perceptions...I found it extremely sweet, so I gave it to my daughter. Lilac goblets!

... interesting comment ... when I think of lilac, I think of dull powdery sweetness ... to answer your question without knowing the scent : I sometimes find Herbes quite attractive ...

I like lilacs very much, but I only know them sweetly. Now I'm really curious how bitter lilac smells and I'll keep an eye out for the cologne.

I wouldn't have put him on the narrowest possible choice for a test right now, but maybe I should change that.

Lilacs make you think of women. Sounds interesting.

Even if your description sounds good, I'll leave this variant alone, because I rarely like the scent of lilac.

I like lilacs, too. However, some 4711 Colognes have a musk that bothers me. I'll test it sometime.

Excellent and very interesting comment, I would actually always have associated lilacs with sweetish. Lilac trophy for you...

Very nicely described and made curious! For me, lilac also has a lot to do with childhood, e.g., picked by myself as a Mother's Day gift. Relaxed lilac goblet for you!

The fragrance is described as floral-sweet. In its composition I do not find a single nuance that I would describe as tart. Lilac dominates. I love it very much, but it does not smell bitter, but rather flowery-sweet. It's funny...

...and I don't think he's cute at all, and I don't think he's like any other lilac scent.

i also find it quite unexpectedly great, and this special note is dark, very soft and unsweet-chocolaty for me.

Lilac and tart? Exciting. I've only ever known lilacs to be rather sweet. Nice comment!
