2 sprayers on wrist....

.... nothing more, I was able to spray them today at Bvlgari from the freshly arrived test bottle. And since a few perfumes are already excited about the fragrance, I report my first cautious impressions.

It starts with a blast of iris. Well, just another iris scent, I think, fortunately nothing you have to have. Very dry is this iris, and absolutely unsweet.

Very soon, however, after 30-45 minutes, a warm note is added. Ambra? With Iris? I have never smelt like this before, but it fits somehow and makes the fragrance directly more extraordinary and interesting for me. And also more beautiful. He also gets a touch sweeter, not really sweet, but since I wrote 'absolutely unsweet' earlier, I'd like to mention that. In fact, I suddenly imagine that I am aware of all the fragrances that have been mentioned, although I usually, or at least mostly, do not consider this to be one of my talents. Musk, in any case, is something I perceive a short time later. Only jasmine doesn't show itself to me directly. After 1 hour the fragrance develops a beautiful warmth. All notes perfectly interwoven, so he should stay for me.

But he's not. Gradually, the musk portion becomes more and more important. After 2 hours I feel Nylaia as musk scent with iris. And, yes, something jasmine-like could also be in it, at least a little bit of floral. Since I have the impression that not much will develop now, I simply set the comment.

Like all fragrances from the Le Gemme series that I've tested so far, this one is rather close and discreet, apart from the first few minutes. Personally, it doesn't bother me at all. Is he worth his price? Probably only if you include the bottle, which alone is a kind of piece of jewellery that wants to be paid for.

Additional information on 17.08. after 2nd and 3rd test:
I still find the base the most beautiful, which fortunately shows up very early, after 1 hour at the latest. The iris in the scent is too dry-herb for me, I perceive it especially at the beginning, or when I spray the scent on clothes. On my skin it is fortunately, as soon as the fragrance "sits down", no longer dominant. I also find the musk, which I found too strong in the first test, more discreet and pleasantly interwoven. Benzoe is also responsible for the warmth I feel, which I hadn't mentioned before.
