Balance-Act

Well. Here I am. A few hours ago, I let this fragrance touch my skin. Skin and Mari are confused. Mari's skin is not used to niche fragrances. Mari's skin is pondering... As long as it does, my nose approaches the scene. It has to do this repeatedly anyway, because the scent is very pleasant and I don't want to miss any part of its evolution.

Right after spraying, a very spicy, heavy note greeted me. Herbal and seconds later also fruity. I spontaneously thought of incense, but a second later I detected thyme. I could also perceive the angelica root, but I couldn't identify the rest listed here. However, the thought of "long drink" crossed my mind. The top note quickly blends with the heart of the fragrance, as a very pleasant and subtle leather note soon makes its presence known.

The scent quickly becomes balsamic - both for the nose and for the still confused skin. A pleasant feeling spreads. The notes of the base note come creeping in, but still noticeably, and underscore the fragrance experience. The vanilla is very subtle, really just a hint. Exactly the right amount to add a touch of sweetness to the fragrance without overshadowing the fruity spice and the bitter beauty of the scent. A wonderful creaminess spreads.

Phew. Mari is completely baffled.

What fascinates me about this fragrance: it is (in my nose) perfectly balanced. Each fragrance note knows its place and only dances there, not taking away the position of the others. A perfectly balanced scent. Wearable for both men and women. Ah - I am delighted!

One thing bothers me: it is not pink...

Mari, with the right glasses, it will turn pink. ;=) A vase to sober the senses and the skin.

Nice girly description. For that, there's the pink glitter trophy with pom-poms.
