Vampire!
This fragrance by Ms. Johnen is the vampire among her scents! She describes it as a web from which no one can escape! For me, it is pure sensory ecstasy. The scent expresses the beauty and eroticism of a woman, whose desires with all sensory pleasures no man can resist! She resembles a vampire, sucking and bringing eternal life, the youthfulness that will never end, a deep longing for bliss and full of sweetness and grace that poisons you. Addictive in pursuit of endless satisfaction! Reclining on black velvet and full of promises!

OK, this fragrance is addictive, it seduces, it creates desire, it’s pure head cinema! It scores with the vanilla and erotic notes of cardamom, vanilla orchid, and tonka bean. This fragrance is very warm and vanilla-like, but it is not sweet.

Unfortunately, I may have whetted your appetite, but it is currently no longer in production; I hope it will be released again!

Black Velvet (that's the name I still have for it) is a blend of Addict and Trouble. Sensually sexy, dangerous, and (unfortunately) discontinued.
