The year is already late...

.. and heavenly autumn hosts rush through the dawn, bringing us fog, forgetfulness, and making us aware of transience. It is late in the year! Dreary November approaches. Storms, but also moments of pause. Sunday afternoons on the couch. Fireplace!
Giggling autumn fairies flutter through gray days and sprinkle soapy, lemony frost foam on roofs at night. The most daring of the pointy-eared creatures let beautiful floral vines freeze on car windshields.
Last roses bloom. Buds have frozen in the cold night.
Bats flew in the summer around 10 PM. Now 5 hours earlier. Dusk sets in early and drives away all cheerfulness. Bizarre shadows appear. A person, wandering between light and shadow, hands over an oversized bouquet of roses. He does not accept tips and disappears into the mists of late year.
Only his footsteps can still be heard. He throws mossy leaves on the ground. Fallen November leaves from maple, oak, and co. smell damp. Germany will once again become a mixed forest land, and in a few years we will also have "Indian Summer" here.
The autumnal hosts continue to fly, peering into windows, throwing roses to good people... never-ending story...

I love November, and here the parks and meadows look like "Indian Summer," wonderful! I find maple, oak, and co. amusing; it sounds like a company! ;-)

Well, if I'm already being called an aspirant here, it definitely has to go on the watchlist!

A truly wonderful chypre, and I'm very grateful to dear Lilie for its rediscovery. For me, however, it smells much more radiant and bright with all its cool floral freshness. :-) I've loved it and I'm falling in love all over again!

Nice comment and interesting scent! But I have to disagree with you: November is a lovely month! January is the dreary one!!! ;-)

Oh no, 90% is quite a lot. For so many bizarre shades...

It was my mom's signature scent, I love it! Can you differentiate the new version from the vintage? I don't quite get your creative text. It doesn't really sound like a recommendation, but you gave it a 100 percent rating, so...

But it's a beautiful lily, yet somehow ethereal.

Would this be something for me too? The trophy wanders through the night.
