First blue, then wow!
So this is my very first comment at Parfumo. I was prompted to do so by the fact that my bottling of Lignum Vitae had just been emptied. And now I urgently and quickly have to order a bottle. Because without it I don't want to be any more...
Angefixtended by the great marketing I ordered a bottling three weeks ago, came along with another fragrance order. Gloomy is totally my thing. And I think the names of the Beauforts are already pretty great. So which one did I want to test most of all? It's difficult because the ham flavors in the descriptions put me off. I'm an old vegetarian. My choice fell on this candidate, sounded very interesting So now that I was in possession of my bottling, I sprayed it on my arm the evening before going to bed. I was disappointed at first. At first it only smelled like the blue shower gel already mentioned in the statements. So not a candidate to buy.
But since I also like to use up my bottlings (or at least try to), he was worn two days later.
And look, it was worth it. Now I could distinguish the scents, smelled citric, slightly aquatic and unsweet, dark cookie. An odd combination, but it works really well.
The third time it was worn it really clicked.
This fragrance is exceptional, but very wearable, even in everyday life. It wraps me in a cocoon all day long, but never becomes annoying, gives warmth and self-confidence Yesterday I got an inquiry from an acquaintance, who has actually never asked me about a perfume before: "But you're wearing a great fragrance. Extravagant, but I really like it. What is it?"
By that time it had long been clear to me that he would have to move into my collection. And not only to look pretty there, but as a favorite candidate that will be worn all the time.
It's a pity there's so little talk about him. A really good smell. Fits in every season, just smells good and is qualitatively really a highlight. Just had to draw attention to him now. So, stop tapping the keys now, because I'm going to order my Lignum Vitae. I am happy to have discovered it And learned something new. It is often worthwhile to have a second and third nose. Especially when you are rather inexperienced, like me.
So please test. It's worth it

Gourmand of the extra class
After a sympathetic and extremely competent consultation at the Duftkunsthandlung Köln I took this Beaufort home yesterday. Nose & brain get to discover a lot of exciting things here. The vanilla note is not too intrusive, the cake dough not too sweet and the development into the salty is refreshing

Aura filter
Opening: Lemon Sponge cake, lemon curd, lemon zest, vanilla, egg yolks, nutmeg and almonds. Fragrances changes after 10-15 minutes, from Montale style gourmand cake bomb to a classy fougere, to an animalic based fragrance.
Definitely worth trying, absolutely beautiful, long lasting compliments getter. This perfume should be worn once one wants to make a good impression, this is a highly comforting fragrance. Like an Instagram filter, but not for your face, but your entire aura will become warmer, sunlit, welcoming and nice.

Intermediate season!
Well, when do I carry you, my dear?! Summer? In winter? In the spring? In the fall?
This scent changes for me in the seasons!
He's a gourmand! Dignity speaks for winter!
It's salty! Would speak for the summer!
It's a little heavy..., that's how spring falls out!
Is autumn staying?
It doesn't really matter! A great fragrance that lives up to its promise. It really reminds of specula biscuits by the sea. But in winter you sit thickly wrapped up by the sea and eat the delicious Christmas biscuits? Dunno!
Nevertheless, thumbs up for this extraordinary fragrance!!!
I'll just wear it whenever I want & let season be season, season;)

Test!!!:))

Lemon bars and the wharf
I was hesitant to try this because I loathe most lemon. Nearly all lemon scents smell like cheap toilet bowl cleaners to me. Lignum Vitae is now a favorite. People have said it doesn't last long, but for me I get a good 8 hours or more. It's a perfect transition from warm to cool Fall weather. The lemon note smells gooey like a lemon bar with a biscuit crust. I also get this brief and sweet buttery biscuit note. Then I start to get sea wharf notes here and there. I do pick up on the sand note, but the lemon bar note lasts 8 hours or more. I imagine they named it Lignum Vitae because it was a wood used for ship parts and it has a perfume smell to it. It feels like a pirate scent.

Butter biscuits and lemon cream cake on a salty mossy-woody fougere base, settles down as soft musky-woody, slightly gourmand and animalic.

This is a changing scent... From a pure gourmand which remember lemon cookies til an animalic fragance which makes me think of kouros...

Starts off with a very aromatic and oily citrus note.
Turns into a slightly sweet, dry cookie-like scent
