It Rumbles in the Box

It rumbles in the box,
it goes boom!
As long as we love each other,
our bed sways in the clouds.
As long as we still have each other,
the stars shine above us.

And everything is so simple,
when we have each other.
Everything is so beautifully warm.
Painted with orange and red colors.
We feel so clumsy and young.
Holding the sun in our arms.
The sand under our heels.
And the good thoughts in our heads!

And at night -
it rumbles in the box.
It goes boom!
As long as we love each other,
our bed sways in the clouds.
As long as we still have each other,
the stars shine above us.

And so we let the worries,
glide across the dreary land.
We let ourselves be carried by the water into the endless ocean.
Like light feathers, we sway with nature.
Everything is so beautifully warm.
Painted with orange and red colors.
We feel so clumsy and young.
Holding the sun in our arms.
The sand under our heels.
And the good thoughts in our heads!

So in a way - drawn from an old Balkan song -
Trouble in Heaven is a fragrance that feels young and lively.
A summer scent that is sweet and lightly warm, spicy.
Initially with a hint of earthy tones - damp, warm - like the sand where you hold your feet, even when the sun is just about to disappear.
Above it, a lovely sweetness that becomes deeper over time. Multifaceted lemon and mandarin notes. A glass of Hugo - a bit of strawberry punch - sun-kissed skin - wrapped in white sheets, through which a warm wind blows. Softly resinous at the edges - "patchouli-heavy" at the end - rich tonka bean. Everything melts into a girl who really knows how to have a blast on vacation.

I would place longevity and sillage in the upper midfield.
Personally, I find it really not bad, it reminds me a bit of Addict by Dior, albeit in a much milder form. The eroticism and the dark/sweet depth are clearly missing here. It could be much better and I would like it even more if there were a real boom - that pulls the carpet out from under my feet. But as it is - it's something for the lukewarm summer nights, where you have fun but don't take everything too seriously!

But I am taken with the bottles - shaped a bit differently and beautiful colors.
They lift the spirits!

It rumbles in the box,
it goes boom! :)

What a carefree, colorful fantasy... enjoyed reading it. Youth trophy! I think I’ll go test Addict again. My grandma had it, and as a young girl, I didn't like it. Maybe today?

I don't think the scent would convince me, but what a wonderfully light-hearted comment!
