Restrained joy - yes. Personenkult - absolutely!

Please play to read the comment "Foreigner - Urgent". (wink)

A little over a year ago I was asked how I liked the fragrance. I liked it well, otherwise I wouldn't have locked it up like a treasure. Two years with the intention to store it, like a great wine.
But I was in a strange mood to rip him open (...) and pulled the shiny package from the shelf. Last Saturday came the day of the days and I opened the transparent film...

I've always thought I was pretty tolerant about perfume. After a few years of perfume affinity, the first men's waters came to me and I wore them as often as the others.
The longer I reflect and think about it, the more I realize that I was not and am not open to masculine fragrances - but that I am actually looking for the man who embodies what these fragrances transport.
(Here I would be very interested whether someone finds himself there.)

An unusually fruity and flowery prelude illuminates the heavy sweetness. Looking at the saffron listed, I may have recognized it. For me, Leather Blend starts more flowery than, as expected, leathery. A mixture of unpleasant cigarette smoke and pleasing cigar smoke accompanies the red-brown flower launch. A little bit of incense triggers the 16-year-old in me. After a good ten minutes, the medium cloud around my forearm gets closer to my body. There she is! The brown leather jacket of the dark-haired, pithy unknown. He masters the balancing act between attractively groomed, pomaded hair, clean shirt and charming different charm, courage to have body hair and a touch of indifference. He's unique through and through. An alpha animal. Peppery appear both his curly chest hair, which self-confidently emerges from the shirt collar (naturally wanted and no oversight), and the present leg note to the sweet leather.
Little anecdote:
Ever been to a leather goods store? Smell the fumes and oil from a vintage car? These are impressions that can trigger a positive feeling and a strong attraction in people throughout their lives.
If I smell Leather Blend, I approach this type of man (at least olfactorily) who can evoke this feeling in me. Big, strong, headstrong, protective, exciting, familiar, ominous charming, humorous, challenging, wild and edgy.

After one hour the following impressions of the fragrance remain:
Warm amber, flowery unisex saffron and weak, sweet leather gently caress my skin. However, only in light to medium strength form. The Sillage is a bit disappointing because Leather Blend is not bad in itself.
Unfortunately, the perfume's performance is not as intense as I like it to be. There remains only hope for the determined man with the sympathetic smile.
