Innocent

A mimosa perfume will be most likely innocent, smooth and light. Acca Kappa's one fulfills al requirement, so it is allowed to enter the Pantheon of Light Flowers and sit down on its (her) well deserved place on the shelves. A creamy, highlander freshness floods from the bottle, that really makes spring in your room even in the middle of the winter, however it fits really only to spring, so I do not wear it in cold weather, that would be a sad thing. This childish and gentle scent gets dynamism from citruses without disrupting the breach of the peace. MIMOSA is quite similar to MIMOSA POUR MOI, but L'Artisan's creature is colder. MIMOSA does not change much, durability is average, sillage depends on mood and the part of body - it likes more to be near to the body, and less on wrists. For receiving fragrance-translated smiles, the best place is the elbow, then you will feel it daylong.

Yes, I am one!!!

Mimosa. If being mimosa-like means being so delicate, so graceful, and so charmingly sunny, yes… then I want to be it! Um… sometimes at least.
A fine silky scent, emotional, a little fairy-like and lovely. Not helplessly girlish and pale in character, but noble and self-assured, almost a bit proud. Very, very beautiful.
It starts with a familiar and irritating note that I do not expect in perfume at all: cut flower stems.
This smell in the flower shop. There, you do not smell roses, irises, gardenias, no, you smell their freshly cut stems. Somewhat floral, but mainly green. Very juicy, a bit prickly. This impression confuses only briefly; quite quickly, through this flower shop scent, comes the one flower that will take the unrivaled leading role in this bouquet: the mimosa.
My scent memory of mimosa was initially quite thin, but as I slowly began to smell it more and more, I recognized it clearly. How does mimosa smell? Greenish, sweet, rounded, very sunny, uplifting, warm.
Christina von Braun writes (in "Stille Post"): "A scent that inevitably evokes a longing for which I have no words."
This mimosa now spreads out in wonderful fullness. And just as it reaches its fullest bloom and radiates a very delicately warm yellow, it is joined by almond. A completely natural almond. Not roasted, salted, sugared, caramelized, no… directly from the tree, freshly lifted from its shell. Even such a young, for our taste quite virgin almond has something green about it. Just like the accompanying, gentle green of the mimosa, the almond green works as well. This is the point where both notes meet and from which they take their departure. Both times into a silky sweetness: with the mimosa it is floral, with the almond it is nutty.
To these two leading, defining notes of mimosa and almond, nothing else is added. They merge after some oscillation into a single scent impression, each retaining its own character. This is supported by warm-sweet sandalwood, which brings an earthiness that underscores the caressing and exceptionally friendly nature of both notes.
The longevity for an EdC is remarkably good.

Mimosas fold their leaves upon touch. Hence their English name "Touch-me-not" and the German usage in the sense of sensitive, wimpy, super-sensitive. However, this beautiful scent has nothing of the little plant "Don’t-touch-me." It does not conceal its delicacy and sunniness but invites irresistible skin closeness.

On Saturday evening, I took a bath....

...and afterwards I was allowed to watch the charts or disco in my pajamas before it was off to bed. Then you would sit there, clean to the core, moisturized to the tips of your hair, and feel a bit older because you were allowed to stay up longer.

Mimosa awakens this memory in me, as it smells very clean and like skin care. It is unobtrusive, pleasantly floral, and fluffy soft.

The namesake has been incorporated here in a tamed version, and additional lovely scent sisters have been placed by her side.

I wouldn't necessarily wear Mimosa as a fragrance, but I would really like it as a shower gel or body lotion.

Gentle Revolution

Mimosa flowers are truly special blooms, and I like them very much. When you walk in the south in spring under the blooming trees, you are enveloped by this scent and almost intoxicated. Very strong, very present, and sweet, you almost feel like a bee drawn to the sweetness of these small, yellow, fluffy flowers.

However, I have always steered clear of mimosa fragrances until now. The Mimosa from Yves Rocher, which is very close to the real mimosa scent, I had to give away because it was too much for me. I can only smell the tree as long as I walk underneath it. But I had that scent on me all day, and it regularly made me feel nauseous.

When Eternity offered me the Acca Kappa Mimosa, saying that I would surely like it, I did not hesitate. I trust her, and she recognized it 100% correctly. This scent is a mimosa scent for me.

The fresh opening is extremely brief, and the bergamot as well as the citrus fruits have not the slightest chance to present their own scent. They have to settle for a hint of freshness, which they also keep quite short. The mimosa immediately takes the lead.

However, after just a few minutes, heliotrope and almond join in, turning the fragrance into a cozy, comforting, addictive composition. I smell a slight hint of tea. Freshly brewed, wonderful Darjeeling with its comforting aroma.

As the sandalwood comes in, the scent has already fully developed on the skin. The sandalwood then takes a bit of the sweetness away and makes it even cozier. I couldn't stop sniffing it. Beautiful.

However, it is a very close, very intimate scent. Not a room-filler like the Mimosa from Yves Rocher, but a warm, soft, romantic cuddle scent. Lovely in spring and lovely in summer, but absolutely wonderful in autumn and winter - as I said, perfect for cuddling.

The longevity is quite remarkable despite its softness. Even after 8 hours, the scent is still perceptible on the skin. Faint and light, but still so beautiful.

Green Waste Acceptance Point

Grass! A Demeter? Waiting and hoping for the base. Still grass. No, lawn. But an English lawn. Nicely trimmed and worked on the edges and corners with nail scissors. The flowers on it must be plastic; I can't smell them. Well-kept front gardens à la Desperate Housewives, where one diva always wants to be more beautiful, better, oh yes, and richer than the other.
Just as polished and groomed comes Mimosa. No development in the eternal green. One-dimensional and simple doesn’t always have to be bad, but after Muschio Bianco, I really expected more from an Acca Kappa.
I feel like I just mowed down 10 football stadiums with a hand lawn mower.

This is a high summer and don’t-touch-me scent.

Still, a thousand thanks to Louce for the sweet bottle, unfortunately a shot into the green waste acceptance point. :(
