Rosa Alba Annette Neuffer 2015

For a long time I have been looking for perfumes that still satisfy me even after frequent wear and always reveal new facets for me to enjoy.

Because often I had the problem that fragrances, after several times put on, no longer corresponded to my taste or I suddenly perceived fragrances that I did not like at all and I had not noticed before. But this phenomenon will probably know most people here.
This is also the reason why I test each perfume at least four or five times extensively before I am ready to spend a larger sum for it.

Only sometimes, really very rarely I discover a perfume where I am directly sure that I will like the fragrance for a long time later. Examples of this were Widian Black II, Oud save the King and the Rosa Alba loved and praised here by me.

What fascinates me so immensely about this fragrance is the authenticity of the scent notes, the rose smells fantastic and really couldn't have been brought into the composition better.
Meanwhile, it did not turn out too feminine, I always feel good when I ignite this little firework on my skin, it literally tingles in the nose and gives me strength to start the day, certainly through the friendly support of the bergamot and pepper.
Neroli and jasmine kontribuieren to the relaxing yet vitalizing mood of the fragrance. The sandalwood paired with the beeswax grounds the creation and makes it last well. Unfortunately, some perfume lovers do not understand that a fragrance, made exclusively from natural raw materials, can never last as long as an ambroxan club of Dior, brave new world...

Speaking of composition, I find you can feel that Annette composes her artwork like a piece of classical music, it really comes from the heart and not from a computer algorithm that conjures up a chemical bomb, as is the case with almost all the major manufacturers.
De facto, Annette really uses ONLY natural oils and extracts, which is really unique, no one else does that.

I would like to make here no advertisement. However, I was allowed to have the pleasure of looking at her studio when I picked up my Hepster bottle, which I found incredibly interesting and first made me realize how much hard work goes into her work. I was just impressed, each flacon she makes only after order in meticulous handwork.

The prices are really more than reasonable, if you compare them with assembly line goods from Xerjoff or Amouage, to name just two well-known brands (I like some fragrances of these brands, but they are just overpriced beyond measure for what you get offered).
But here you get a pure natural product, which was created with heart and soul and respectful use of natural raw materials.

I bow to this artist, who is still far too unknown in our scene.
But I am convinced that this will soon change and she will be given the attention she deserves for her olfactory works of art.

Thank you for your amazing creations, from the bottom of my heart!
