Pour Elle Annayake 2000

Wonderful! I found about 20 ml of this fragrance (used, in the original Monolith 100 ml bottle) for 2 euros at a flea market. And I am consistently pleasantly surprised by "Annayake pour Elle". It smells wonderfully fresh and resinous with a strong cypress note. The flowers in the heart of the perfume transport me to a spring morning at Fuji. (I once saw a film with Fritz Wepper and a Japanese girl, where the two formed a friendship). Beautiful landscape images were shown in it. A large lake, from whose shore one can gaze at Fujiama. Pine forests all around. In the base of the fragrance, but also already latent beforehand, this landscape has been translated into olfactory images in "Annayake pour Elle". And it lasts with me for many hours (sprayed in the morning, you can reapply at noon, and it lasts until the evening). Good, but not overwhelming sillage. I don’t know any other fragrance that resembles it. And: I can smell the natural origin of the ingredients. Nothing in this Eau de Parfum smells "artificial" or synthetic. Its uniqueness may not appeal to every nose, but it impresses me with its ability to transport me to a forest by the lake near Fujiama, allowing me to enjoy it.
