Spiced fruit and floral oriental, incredibly beautiful and complex

If one were to go purely based on the notes list, you might call AL02 a floriental. But to my nose, despite the florals listed in the heart - jasmine, rose, and so on - this is a spicy, dark fruit oriental that sits halfway between the piney mulled wine of Bois de Paradis (Parfums Delrae) and the plummy, perfumey amber of Coco (Chanel).

The opening makes me feel drunk with pleasure, combining the hallucinogenic aromas of a pan of plums, pears, apricots, and raisins simmering in a tannin-heavy red wine with the dusty, bark-y flavor of cinnamon sticks and cloves. It would almost be a gourmand except for the resinous, dusty incense and woody notes shifting beneath the stewed fruits. AL02 is also not at all sweet. It has that interesting dichotomy that dried figs or prunes have, a sort of intense jamminess or stickiness combined with a bitter, leathery edge that makes it possible to eat more than one of them at a time without feeling sick.

A nice surprise sits in wait for me in the base, although it takes hours to get there - a creamy, almost smoky combination of vanilla and incense, with what feels to me like a touch of ambergris. With traces of mulled wine and dried fruit still lingering over the oriental base, AL02 feels like a perfume from the past, by which I mean solid in its structure, rich, and well made from every angle. In fact, it's almost classical in nature, something that took me by surprise in a line that I had assumed was all Iso E Super and beardy intellectuals sitting around in chic bars dipping their hipster beards into their small-batch beer. Turns out that the problem was all with me and my assumptions.

The Hotzenplotz Revelation

Children's book enthusiast and police station apprentice Prof. Dr. whatever Meggi had, in light of the many unanswered questions, simply linked himself to the story of the robber Hotzenplotz and was now sitting next to Constable Dimpfelmoser in his office. Both were going through the documents and evidence for what felt like the twelfth time. The only certainty was that the robber had stolen grandmother's coffee grinder. Everything else was - so far - pure speculation.

Hotzenplotz claimed he had absolutely wanted a coffee grinder that plays a song when you crank it. But why had he later made Seppel grind the coffee in his robber's cave instead of doing it himself? Obviously a lie. And why had Kasperl and Seppel been so eager to retrieve the coffee grinder immediately, yes, to catch the robber right away, instead of leaving it to the authorities?

The great and wicked wizard Petrosilius Zwackelmann had stated during the castle search that he was only interested in theoretical magic and fried potatoes. But that wasn't true: Upon entering the study, the two investigators had felt an unsettling sensation and, by comparing the dimensions of the room with the hallway and the nearby guest toilet, quickly discovered that there must be a secret chamber in between.

At least, that’s how it would read in the official police report. In reality, the professor had slipped on a puddle of toad slime and, in falling, had knocked the constable headfirst through a portrait of Zwackelmann's great-aunt. It had looked amusing, how the policeman had been stuck up to his neck in the décolletage of the elderly lady. Moreover, the picture had turned out to be a secret door to a storage room. Inside, it had been filled with fruit. Mandarins, peaches, lemons, but above all: plums upon plums. And spices - the room had also smelled of cinnamon with a hint of vanilla. Why was the wizard hiding that? What experiments was he conducting there and with what goal?

And why had Kasperl, cleverly disguised as Seppel, searched the wizard's castle after learning about the Hotzenplotz-Zwackelmann connection? Why had he crawled through the mossy forest at night? He had claimed he needed to procure fairy herb to free the fairy Amaryllis from her captivity. Such a ridiculous story hadn't been heard in a long time. Fairy herb… Pah! Well, a fairy was present, that couldn't be denied. However, this fairy was in turn an opaque figure. Named Amaryllis and suspiciously smelling of rose, that is very… well… indeed: suspicious. She claimed she had been holed up in Zwackelmann's cellar for seven years. Seven years! Absurd. There hadn’t even been a shoe cabinet down there.

And why, at the end of the story, did neither Kasperl nor Seppel marry the beautiful fairy, as would befit a proper fairy tale? Instead, they simply sat down in grandmother's good parlor and…

Of course! It had all been about grandmother's plum cake with whipped cream from the very beginning! And cinnamon and crumbs - for although the sources on the latter were sparse, it was beyond question that Otfried Preussler, being a native Bohemian, knew exactly what a proper plum cake should contain.

That was it: Hotzenplotz had wanted to soften grandmother up with the robbery and then blackmail her into baking him her cake. Zwackelmann had been after the recipe because all his alchemical experiments had apparently yielded no success. And the boys? Quite simply! They must have realized immediately that grandmother would not bake a plum cake with whipped cream (and cinnamon and crumbs) until she got her coffee grinder back - and that’s exactly how it had turned out. As for the fairy: Of course, she had been an accomplice of Zwackelmann, who had switched sides at the last moment and had submerged as a toad in the cellar.

The chain of evidence for the plum cake conspiracy was seamless and impressive. Dimpfelmoser's ridiculous assumption that it could have been a compote conspiracy was off the coffee table. Once again, a mysterious case had been solved.

And now it was time to return to the so-called reality.

"Make it broader, with tons of heavy shoulders...."

Anyone who knows the musical Victor/Victoria will recognize the quote from my title. When I sprayed the fragrance yesterday early evening, my first reaction was: WOW

This perfume is absolutely delicious, but also an absolute heavyweight! If you prefer olfactory subtlety, you should stop reading here!

Although I would never wear al02, I must say: this is one of the best women's perfumes I have had the pleasure of testing lately!

For my taste, everything is just right here!

The intensity and longevity are amazing, and those who love sillage will be fully satisfied. A half spray was enough to envelop me in this elegant-sinful scent.

The top note doesn't start too fresh, but rather delicately fruity. Peach and plum are skillfully softened by the citrus notes. The spices from the heart note are already shimmering through softly, announcing the oriental character of the perfume.

The heart note truly lives up to the film quote. Here, it's all about grand poses! In the musical, there is a song (The Jazz hot) that reflects the mood this perfume creates for me. The supposed drag artist (Julie Andrews) performs the first act with a lascivious jazz song. She plays with eroticism without drifting into cheapness, but also with a hint of irony! That's how I would describe the spicy floral character of the heart note! Multifaceted, mysterious, and layered, all with a wink!

The base then takes on the calming role. Spices, earthy, smoky, and balsamic notes blend skillfully with the sweet vanilla, finely rounding off the oriental scent.

In contrast to Victor/Victoria, the perfume maintains its feminine identity. Despite the abundance of fragrance components and the lush scent body, I experienced neither headaches nor a suffocating feeling. The label of perfume artwork truly applies here.

However, one thing I find a bit unfortunate (or maybe not). They could have given this artwork a fitting name. I personally find the type designation a bit too sober here!

Igraine, thank you for the enchanting erotic scent!

Bohemian Apple Strudel

Oh, how beautifully it always smelled when apple strudel was baked at our home. Apples were not in short supply in the former Czechoslovakia, so there were often apple strudels in autumn, winter, and spring.

The fresh dough, made from butter, eggs, flour, sugar, vanilla, grated lemon zest, and milk, the grated apples mixed with cinnamon sugar, almonds, and rum-soaked raisins.

The dough was rolled out with a rolling pin into a large flat sheet, then the apple-cinnamon-sugar-raisin mixture was spread on top, and everything was rolled up into a thick roll, with the ends tucked in to prevent any leakage. Finally, the strudel was brushed with egg yolk before baking.

This wonderful scent that the prepared apple strudel then emitted reminds me of al02 (silly name).

The sillage is good and quite fruity-cinnamon heavy, and the scent lasts a long time. It is a beautiful and pleasant fragrance, yet I wouldn’t want to smell like apple strudel, neither unbaked nor baked...

A thousand thanks for this wonderful memory, dear Luminosa.

The Color Golden Brown

Not only does the liquid have this color, it also smells like it. Rich, fine, and opulent. But those expecting a honey-sweet fragrance are mistaken. For spicy notes take the lead!
What initially sneaks in with a cake-like quality and reminds one of the scent when entering a pastry shop during peach and plum season transforms within minutes into an almost sandy clove-cinnamon scent with hints of rose and jasmine.
Subtly, all sorts of woody, smoky, and earthy-balsamic scents are waiting for their special deployment.
These also come into play, but they will always be framed by the sandy spice notes until the end of the fragrance (which lasts a very long time). The impression is, as already described at the beginning, a slightly rough golden-brown tone, in which bright and red crystals shimmer.
Only when one smells very closely can one still detect a remnant of the first impression in the distance: A hint of ripe, aromatic plums and peaches that shines through in the spicy early and the woody-grassy-earthy-smoky late autumn of the fragrance.
This fragrance masterpiece is a small challenge for the nose, as many notes create a whole that still retains many characteristics of its parts.
With respect to the perfumers who have cleverly thought around corners and edges...
