At the Faber-Castell flagship store!

When I was in Frankfurt with my girlfriend before the Corona crisis, we literally sniffed around in the Faber-Castell store on the Zeil. For those who do not know: Faber-Castell is a stationery manufacturer, from pencils to crayons, etc. - which makes the stationery heart beat faster.
Of course it costs a lot more -> It is one of the premium brands.
Since I assume that everyone has been to a stationery store at some point, you know the smell of fresh wooden pencils, this smell of wood and pencil leads (graphite).

That's right, Silver Mountain Water reminded me of that in the heart note. But not the cheap pens that "linger" in the attic in old boxes after school, for example.
But for high-quality, handmade and exclusive pens - which are expensive. Just like this fragrance.
(Additional info: a pencil box with over 150 pencils was exhibited, in cooperation with Karl Lagerfeld. Luxury case for over 2500€ - luxury at its best)

I only had the association with a lurid mountain stream when I sprayed it on, the freshness and purity it contains.
Exactly this purism of pencil boxes, where each colour of the pencils is arranged exactly. In a row. Order. Cleanliness.
Not the dirty and painted and scratched pencil case, where the pens have a bleak existence.

For me, fragrance is again a realization that scents revive encounters, events and places.
In this case the trip to Frankfurt.

But it does not mean that you smell like a walking luxury pencil when you spray it on!
But luxuriously and nobly beautiful!
