Rose-PatchOudh Chypre, classic

My very first impression was: "Not another one of those meaningless floral waters for people and markets that only like perfumes without scent but with fabric softener!"
But that would have been very far off, because within a few seconds a classic rose chypre emerges. The patchouli counterpoint is modernized with a bit of wood and minimal oud synthetic.
Even the fabric softener fades away after about 1 hour. Paris-Paris then develops somewhat in the direction of unisex. What remains is a very classic, elegant, and mature fragrance that I would rather wear in the fall. With a little suit and pearl necklace for an appointment at the notary.

The adventurous gentleman can also give it a try, but he will probably be happier with "Paris - Édimbourg | Chanel."
Overall solidly made, but definitely nothing new. You can have it in your collection to cover the rose chypre flank. But you don't have to, especially since there is a lot of good stuff in this segment at more acceptable prices.
This interpretation of the city of love is rather strict and not particularly cheerful or even frivolous. It's a bit of a shame...

I think this will probably replace my Florabotanica when it runs out.
Gray and rough and wonderful, that's exactly how "my" Paris is. Nothing is sweet or cheesy in this city; the scent seems to fit perfectly.

a bit bland, I guess, for us old perfume ladies :)

I have a notary appointment coming up. Before that, I'll stop by the perfume shop and spray a little behind my ears ;-)

It captivated me from the very first moment. And the longer I wear it, the more I like it.
I find it very feminine without being cheesy.

Now I'm a bit worried about the sharing refill... it doesn't sound that exciting :-)
