Beautiful holidays in mediterranean places
Hey guys, welcome to my new fragrance commentary. Today it's about a brand that I actually only really got to know a few years ago and which I now also find really beautiful. Of course, I have to admit that I had started trying more of this brand, Berdoues that is, just because of one scent. The reason is almost childish... but I'm telling you anyway, because I can't surprise you anymore anyway and you surely expect everything with me, don't you? And no, it's not about boobs or anything this time... sigh... what people always think of me.... :D
Anyway, one thing I'm sure you guys know well about me is NO! Not that I bitch about you ladies all the time. And also not that I'm single. And no, I'm not talking about my hangover, Star Wars or comics (wow, actually you guys know a lot about me...!). No no, you do know that I really like tea scents. That's why I'm still on the hunt for the latest tea scents (or tea scents in general that I don't know yet) and at some point I also saw the tea scent "Assam of India" from Berdoues, which not only had a beautiful and very authentic, if a bit too simple tea scent, but also came in a wonderful bottle on which you could see countless colourful elephants! Isn't that great? Look at the flacon but times, there are loud colorful elephants to see, that looks just great, would I be a woman I would even say sugary sweet to it, well, if you ladies say something like that :DD
Therefore, I just had to try all the other Berdoues fragrances over time and have now arrived at "Croisière: Capri", which also shows a beautiful motif inside the bottle, but more about that in the bottle description. Apart from that, I like citrusy scents, so let's see how this fragrance is and if it's worth keeping in mind especially for next summer.
After a while, the first cedar notes also come through, making the fragrance a little more masculine. In the background, the fragrance has a slightly clean scent, not necessarily soapy, but still somehow nice clean radiating, about like a fresh shower in the summer. Which is probably due to the cedarwood, and maybe just makes me think so, since I often use a cedar scented shower gel when showering. And on the whole, it was again, because this fragrance is also simple and simple fancy, but just smells pretty nice.
Therefore, you smell here also actually only oranges and cedar, but for that everything quite authentic and nicely done (that is, without the fragrance later more synthetic or stuffy), so that you can smell quite pleasant even on murderously hot summer days, both for themselves and for others in the vicinity around you. If you're looking for simple, nice summer or holiday scents, you might want to bookmark this scent and give it a try next summer. All you have to like are citrusy scents. What most but apparently do not like, because you are all beknackt, yes ha ha ha, I just do not manage to write a Kommi without immediately insulting everyone here, a miracle that I still have subscribers here... :D
Oh yes, I wrote that the fragrance would seem a bit more masculine because of the cedar, but that's not so extreme now, so I would still stick with the unisex statement, especially since the fragrance as described also starts to smell a bit softer in the base.
So then, that's it again and yes, have a nice evening, see you :)

Apart from that, I like citrusy scents, so let's see how this fragrance is and if it's worth keeping in mind especially for next summer.
The fragrance:
The scent starts off with very nice orange notes and tart lemons, making it very fresh. The oranges smell, in my opinion, both of the pulp and a little of the slightly bitter-smelling peel. The orange is the more intense scent, by the way, as the lemons turned out weaker. But that does not matter, because the oranges also smell citrusy and sour and the fragrance thus comes across very fresh. After a while, the first cedar notes also come through, making the fragrance a little more masculine. In the background, the fragrance has a slightly clean scent, not necessarily soapy, but still somehow nice clean radiating, about like a fresh shower in the summer. Which is probably due to the cedarwood, and maybe just makes me think so, since I often use a cedar scented shower gel when showering. And on the whole, it was again, because this fragrance is also simple and simple fancy, but just smells pretty nice.
The sillage and the durability:
The sillage is unfortunately rather weak, although at least because of the cedar wood it does not fade too quickly. Therefore, the durability is also at least mediocre and the fragrance thus does not fade like pure citrus fragrances already after less than two hours, but remains already so four, maybe even five hours on the skin. The flacon:
The bottle is rectangular, high and has rounded edges. On the inner bottle wall, a beautiful motif of a Mediterranean-looking resort was attached, which looks very nice and also makes you think of a nice holiday, which is very appropriate for the fragrance. I like the bottle very much. Conclusion:
Okay, so I liked the fragrance a lot, but I also have to say first that you shouldn't expect anything complex or extraordinary here. Most Berdoues fragrances are anyway quite simple fragrances with few fragrance notes and usually radiate what you also expect under their fragrance names. Therefore, you smell here also actually only oranges and cedar, but for that everything quite authentic and nicely done (that is, without the fragrance later more synthetic or stuffy), so that you can smell quite pleasant even on murderously hot summer days, both for themselves and for others in the vicinity around you. If you're looking for simple, nice summer or holiday scents, you might want to bookmark this scent and give it a try next summer. All you have to like are citrusy scents.
