Short chocolate pleasure
Who knows me, knows that I have to do professionally with very different topics than with perfume. But even there you get something olfactory now and then. That's what happened during my very first voluntary internship. At that time, I got one of the much sought-after internships at one of the largest and best-known companies for automation technology in our country and was allowed to work on the text of publications for their worldwide customers. I was very happy when my very sympathetic supervisor told me that I could go out and experience the products in daily practice. And not just anywhere. No. It went to one of the best-known chocolate manufacturers in the whole of Germany.

Sniffing Lait et Chocolat, I was immediately back on the scene. The intense scent of liquid chocolate beams me back times more than 20 years and reminds me of that unforgettable day back then. But I smell not only the chocolate pure, but also other ingredients.
After all, the most diverse varieties are produced and packaged in parallel there on one day. Could that be yogurt chocolate, which is just produced? Or do we have it here ostensibly with the typical combination of milk and cocoa, which is known in particular by an Italian, unfortunately little sustainable manufacturer, but which every factory produces? I can't make out the individual components of this perfume, but the overall impression is skilful, because I'm standing in these hallowed halls just as I did back then, and I know that I can still take some of the coveted, cheaply available broken chocolate home with me in the evening. The scent is very authentic and fun for anyone who enjoys the pleasure of chocolate.

At the same time, Lait et Chocolat never drifts into the buttery despite the milk notes, which I like well, but unfortunately only isolated perfumers succeed. Also a sticking plaster note, the milk fragrances for my nose like to develop times, is absent here.

But now we come to the very big but: the fun is over faster than you can imagine. I have yes very many delicate fragrances and love these also, but here is really already after the shortest time end. My husband can't detect this chocolate dream at all, so it can't just be me. Where Sorriso, which I also love and own, is sometimes a bit too much and too persistent for me, what I get here is simply too little. Otherwise, Lait et Chcolat would definitely have been a candidate for my wish list. But as it is so often the case: The most beautiful moments unfortunately pass far too quickly. Just like the then wonderful day in the chocolate factory.

Many thanks to FioreMarina for the test opportunity.

Milk and chocolate... don't even start counting calories..
Do you sometimes have a bad conscience when you eat large quantities of chocolate? Because normally it always happens the same way: You break off a little bit of the chocolate bar, eat it, and then you can't resist breaking off another little piece and continuing to eat it. This goes on until there is only a miserable rest left, which is of course packed up nicely again, so that you can cry the next day how little of it is left and how much you ate, although you didn't want to...

... and now you have to smile because you have recognized this behavior in you exactly as described above, right? DD

Well, I have to admit that it's actually difficult to resist... but what can you do when you are so weak-willed? :D *sigh*
But it is especially bad if you swear to yourself to do a little more sports the next day and then prefer to lie around lazily in a corner, of course with a cat in your arms, who sleeps so sweetly that you get sleepy at the sight and even doze off a little... :D

But I'll get to the scent!

The smell:
At first the scent smells really like cocoa. But not of ready made cocoa, it smells as if you open the cocoa package and sniff the still dry cocoa powder, while you start drooling, because you know you're about to prepare something delicious (but please don't drool into the package, igittttt!!! :D).
Only little by little a milk note is added, which smells like hot chocolate or even warm/hot cocoa together with the cocoa, which is pretty great!
In addition, vanilla is added, apparently just to increase the sweetness and softness of the fragrance even more, making the scent more powdery, but also a little drier at first.
The milk has a slightly better smell towards the base, with the sweet, chocolaty scents increasing even further.
For myself, however, the milk content is too high in the end. This wouldn't be so bad, but it smells more like hot or boiling milk, which gives off a scent that I don't like that much, but if you don't have any problems with it, you'll find a great, chocolaty scent here, because all in all the scent has become quite tasty!

The Sillage and the durability:
The Sillage is actually quite good for a short while, so that it pleasantly attracts attention. But whereby it also seems as if somebody nearby had prepared some hot cocoa instead of smelling of a scent. Later, the scent is a little weaker, but generally remains in the above average range.
The durability is extremely high, the scent lasts very long, probably until the next morning, but I can't say that for sure, because I took a shower in the evening... on the other hand I could smell the scent on my skin even after the shower... and I do NOT stint with the soap, if that's what you were thinking... hmmm.....

The bottle! The bottle looks high quality, but also a little simple. It's cylindrical and clear, and has a white label on the front with a logo and name on it, and the font looks quite nice. The lid has a cuboid shape and is transparent. As I said, it's quite nice, but also a bit simple.

Hmm... there are many things you could call sweet. Certain emoticons, cats, animals or animal babies in general (did I mention cats? :D), sweet women (no, I don't mean you perfumas, because you are scratchy, aaarrrgh...! DDD), or sweet things to enjoy, like chocolate, cookies, candies, chocolate and even more chocolate... *sigh*

Heh heh he, yes, as expected, the fragrance has become a very sweet-smelling, chocolaty scent, where of course you might ask yourself again how wearable such a fragrance is, since strictly speaking it actually smells like hot chocolate. If you spray it on yourself, it looks great, but maybe you would have spilled cocoa on yourself, which I can well imagine with you. No, I don't want to annoy you by saying that you are clumsy, because I KNOW that you are clumsy!

A dear friend of mine, for example, has the characteristic of spilling everything, but also everything she eats. Cute is then of course that she sometimes looks quickly to the left and right to see if someone has seen it, and yes, I have seen it. Since she spills it all the time, I'm just waiting for her to spill it when we eat together, mu ha ha ha ha ha :D
So it could well be that you could also be clumsy, although I don't know anybody else who would be SO extremely clumsy :DD

Anyway, the fragrance is good to use in autumn and winter, but probably only for your own enjoyment as a kind of relaxing fragrance instead of using it for example when going out, even if you would have to smell delicious with it!

In any case, it's worth a test if you like milk and chocolate!
