Eau de Icon

Cher is an icon. If you look at her impressive career, which now stretches over almost 6 decades, there is nothing to shake about it.

I still remember very well how I first became aware of her. It was the year 1998 and their super hit 'Believe' completely captivated me! In November 1999 the first concert followed in Frankfurt... I, sweet 12 years and 39 degrees fever, had a really hard time that day convincing my parents that we would NOT sell our cards to the neighbors!

Thank Goddess Cher I was heard and it was still a successful evening. At that time I wouldn't have believed that I would see Cher on stage again 20 years later... This time in Mannheim. But I would have believed even less that it would not change optically at all in the 20 years! ^^

When my passion for perfume began to flourish, it was almost impossible not to stumble over Chers first fragrance 'Uninhibited' at some point. Since this was launched before my birth and shortly after my birth it was discontinued again, it had to be a 10ml Splash, which I had blindly bought at a still relatively humane price.

Uninhibited' is the keyword which now leads me to 'Eau de Couture'...
Eau de Couture is like Uninhibited 2.0. Or 'Uninhibited Reloaded'. Both fragrances are almost confusingly similar, even though 'Eau de Couture' is a noticeably more modern, more contemporary variation.

The scent is powdery. Woody, balsamic. The almost spicy aldehydes, which dominated 'Uninhibited', have been pimped up here with dry vanilla. This in turn makes the scent for me personally more pleasant, warmer, more wearable.
The flowery notes take us back in time to a time when opulent, madam scents were still on the agenda.

Eau de couture is not a fragrance I would wear every day. He doesn't even represent my usual loot pattern. Yet he has something that fascinates and attracts me - just like Cher in 1998.
The scent looks noble. You might call it almost sophisticated. He's over the top, a kind of attitude towards life
(By the way, the bottle looks much more appealing and more valuable in reality than the original images suggested.)

In conclusion, one might think that despite everything a certain disappointment has spread: 'Eau de Couture' a fragrance twin of 'Uninhibited'? How boring and unimaginative...
Think! It is this very fact that gives the feeling that Cher has remained true to herself, her preferences and her nature all these years. Eau de Couture' is the Cher of the Year 2019, a modern yet timeless diva who knows what she wants and who she is.

Do YOU believe in a life after Cher? Personally, I can't imagine any!
