Life is what happens while you're making other plans....
There you are. I meet you curiously, without expectation and without prejudice. You are my first ATH - what I do not yet know at this moment: You will not remain alone.

I had read your fragrance application, what you can do and are - with that I really wanted to get to know you - Match! Chocolate. Tonka bean, damask rose, musk, patchouli - and more. Oooh! All that sounds like an interesting character.

So there it was: My head cinema for our first date ... When you then met me, with a confident smile and a lightness and freshness, I was first completely surprised. So I had not imagined you now! But somewhat mischievously you winked at me with a ray of sunshine. Where does the lemony-orange come from, which gives you a sun-like aura at the beginning, I thought to myself? Yes, quite nice, you can probably wear it, was my second thought. Then I did not know yet that it was already too late for me, too late to turn around and leave you lying.
No, actually I wanted to know my expectations fulfilled, - I smelled therefore more intensely on you and then also on me, my clothes - again and again - hm, at the beginning there was perhaps not quite the depth that I had expected? Something slightly synthetic perhaps? A critical look on my part. But you skillfully played for time - and in the drydown you came closer and closer to me, my critical bulwark melted away.

You nestled elegantly into this summer day and against me. I kept catching myself wanting to breathe you in, almost sucking you in with every breath. For after the fresh-cheeky smiling opening, your benevolent warmth ensnared me. More and more I perceived the rose on you, wanted to let myself fall ... into this warmth, your confidence, your cuddliness. At the same time you do not seem intrusive to me at all. Maybe it is light chocolate, which mixes softly with the rose.

Whether others will find that you fit me? What my circle of friends will say, if you velvet-rosy will accompany me from now on - boah. No idea. Maybe some are irritated. Maybe you don't look quite as masculine as I expected. I don't care what anyone says. It is what it is, as Erich Fried said. I like you, you do me unexpectedly good. Period.

Yes, "Oxytocin" - the name suits you, I think somewhat absently. - Come let's just cuddle dreamily in the sun for a bit before I have to get back to the real world.

My first review... was supposed to go to another (favorite) perfume. But life often turns out differently than you planned. Now you are my first review. You have earned it. Chapeau!

Thanks to Milhouse for the souk! Satisfied that I have chosen a slightly larger bottling - so Oxytocin can stay a little longer - and will probably be re-bought. Now I'm excited to see more ATH`s.

A full, strong marmalade rose bathed in a thick amber kerosene oil - later a warmer sweet amber oil. The whole thing is opulent, powerful.

I love this one so much. The more I wear it the more I enjoy it. It is soft, sweet, very slightly spicy, beautiful.

Initially spicy-floral, this warm and creamy/sweet oriental-spicy Gourmand, slowly settles to a gentle earthy-woody base. 100% Unisex!
