The soapy soapyness
When wearing this I feel clean. So clean… newly washed. It actually smells like a bar of soap. The soap bars from my childhood. The white ones that everybody used. That foamed immensely when you added water. To me, back then, it was a kind of therapy. I could stand for a long time in front of the bathroom sink, with the water running - back then no one thought about the Earth running out of clean water ever - and just play with the foam. Washing my hands and feeling the foam cover them. After doing this, the hands always felt very dry. But that did not matter. The smell of the soap of my hands lasted for hours.
Eau Emotionelle has an extraordinary soapy note. I do smell the flowers, gardenia and rose, but from the beginning to the end it is mostly soap. Not bad at all. The pink pepper adds a spicy edge to it, which makes it a bit more interesting - a bit more like a perfume. That suits the scent.
Bodo Sperlein is the designer behind the original Agent Provocateur bottle, the adorable hand grenade. This one comes with a black lace ribbon tied to the split and a lace pattern on the bottle, which is a lovely baby pink colour. I find it a mix between tasteful and fun. It is definitely a bottle that stands out and recommendable for the shelf if anyone asks.
This fragrance, though, is no room rocker. It is wearable at all times and for all occasions. Discreet and feminine. Maybe that is also why it is not a scent I wear a lot. I find it nice and it brings back good memories. But it is not scent I would go and buy again. I guess the one I have will last long.
