My Last Will - Idylle

Trouble in Heaven is now the last scent from the Louboutin test series for me, and the one that appeals to me the most spontaneously; I immediately recognize my favorites, patchouli and iris. I feel a bit reminded of Armani's Iris Celadon with this combination, although I find that Armani was bolder and incorporated a nice twist into his fragrance - from a dry, dusty, austere start to a soft, fluffy finish. Louboutin doesn't dare to do that; the scent feels polished. As with his other two fragrances, the scent impression remains consistent from the beginning and changes little over time. Here, a soft, chocolatey patchouli takes center stage, powdery and fluffy underlined by iris, which at times gives it the impression of dry, dusty cocoa powder, refined with a bit of cinnamon. A warm, powdery, spicy cloud. So far, so good. According to the advertisement, this scent is supposed to be mysterious and provocative, for a confident woman with a penchant for dangerous liaisons.
Today, however, this woman seems to have simply had enough of nightlife; she is wearing her black silk lingerie (out of habit) but has thrown on her comfortable home terry suit over it and is knitting winter socks on the sofa. The little cat at her feet is purring. That may be heavenly and idyllic, but where is the trouble, the provocative element?
The bottle color in dark purple with a chocolate brown touch fits well; the scent also feels rather dark, soft, and warm, somewhat spicy, yet very smooth and a bit boring without any edges or corners. Over time, it even becomes more floral-sweet and feminine, with that touch of many modern evening fragrances for women. However, for stressed night hunters who simply want to spend a cozy evening at home, as a place of calm, a relaxing scent, perhaps even a balm for the soul, it is certainly suitable. Although I believe there are cheaper alternatives out there. From the big designer's eye-catching footwear, I would have expected more innovation.

Haha...just great! 'Cravache' really depends on what you wear underneath - it changes your entire posture and presence.

Well, the advertising is spot on. The terry cloth suit is dangerous for the romance :-)

...so it's getting removed from the watchlist right away! It seems to confirm once again, "Shoemaker, stick to your last!"
