Not of this world..
Do green butterflies actually exist? Probably only in the tropics. In any case, I've never seen one in this country. Nevertheless, the first time I heard the name "Green Butterfly" I immediately had a picture in my mind's eye. A large, dark green-golden iridescent butterfly with delicate powdery wings, gently swaying and dancing through the air. An exotic and at the same time rather fairytale-like image that immediately captivated me. I wanted to know what it smelled like, this magical green butterfly...
And I was not disappointed:
It really does smell as green and powdery-sweet of iris, orange blossom and vanilla as I had imagined. At the same time, however, it is infinitely delicate and somehow artificial due to the aldehydes, incomparable to anything else, not of this world. When you wear it, the colors change, sometimes the green, sometimes the powdery-sweet side of the butterfly predominates. It is not easy to grasp, which is why I think the name fits well here for once. A seductive daydream like the green fairy in Viktor Oliva's painting "The Absinthe Drinker", which the fragrance also made me think of.
In addition, "Green Butterfly" has a special effect on me that I have never experienced with any fragrance before: When I wear it, I feel more beautiful. Sounds strange, but it's true. I look in the mirror and think: "I don't need to put on any more make-up today. The scent is enough. It makes all other efforts superfluous".
It's funny what scents can do to you, isn't it?
Sillage and longevity are good. I myself smell it all day without it ever becoming too much. And the price is put into perspective when you consider what you save on powder and lipstick.
I'll be wearing it a lot this spring and summer. Hopefully the magic will stay with me for a long time..

I will survive
Two years ago in late summer, I broke up with my boyfriend of many years. The break-up was hard, painful, but unavoidable. No alternative, as they say. The reasons are irrelevant here.
It was a terrible time for everyone involved. I was in a bad way and only...

India? Japan!
What I'm doing here is actually absolute nonsense. Already clear to me. I'm doing it anyway because the fragrance simply deserves it. It is magical, beguiling and beautiful in its own way. I notice that over and over again when I wear it. Which is rare,...
