Baiser Fou Cartier 2017

Since my statement, I have had multiple opportunities to test Cartier's "Baiser Fou": on skin and on the strip. The last scent strip is still next to me.
It has really been worth trying it more than once.

I am always surprised that such artificially appearing flowers like orchids even have a scent. Even more so, I am astonished that this one is quite rich and floral. So it is here.
Although I still don't know if it really smells like ripe watermelons or rather cucumber; in any case, the freshness that enlivens the somewhat powdery, deep orchid scent makes that knowledge secondary.
I also smell summery fruits; however, I can't pinpoint them exactly. (Never should you ask me!)
But I believe: they are of the kind that I would also love to eat. And that makes them good!
Probably "Baiser Fou" thus gets its subtly fruity sweetness.

So it is a fragrance that carries the temptations of summer within it: fresh and floral with a powdery touch that clings relatively long and thus indulges.
All these fine delicacies are contained in a puristic flacon that fits very well in the hand: it invites you to touch it!

I like this scent, but I am still not entirely sure if I am the type of woman that was thought of when creating "Baiser Fou."
But that doesn't matter at all: I still feel a great sympathy for this "crazy kiss."

Conclusion: After all, you can't take every good kisser home!
