Unbelievable, so old and not tilted

January was, this year.
I'm looking for a nice vintage spring scent. Thought I'd stop by Parfumo's.

And, the benevolent comments on Diorissimo made me curious. THE quasi personified one in lily of the valley in diorissimo can only be a statement for the spring.

Lucky you got a vintage gift box on ebay, EDP plus EDT for 29,90. Of course in confidence and hope that it has not tilted.
Lucky again, incredible, soooo old and it duuuftet magical.

Bottles and outer carton let assume that it concerns even a 50 er years expenditure. Dusty and unspectacular in design. You could almost assume it shouldn't be too glamorous, rather modest. Just adjusted to the barren and hardscrabble post-war years.
But, as you know, it depends on the content. The outer carton and flat design would not have motivated me to buy personally.

The scent is simply wonderful. And apart from that, once again it is amazing how long a good perfume lasts if it is stored well.
As already expected with a lily of the valley, which stands quite dominant in the foreground. Of course you have to like that.
A little green I sniff, a little lilac. The other contents given, my nose is too untrained for that. But as an overall conclusion I perceive a bouquet of flowers with a very natural scent for me personally.

Contrary to some other users here, I don't feel Diorissimo only as a "young women fragrance", but also as a fresh, youthful woman in the middle of life, who radiates esprit, charm and girlish liveliness.
Because at least my nose does not only perceive the "sweet" lily of the valley, but also something warm, creamy and balsamic, which accompanies the lily of the valley beside the green constantly subliminally and brings diorissimo also elegance.

A beautiful, really spring representative fragrance, with which I, although not more girls or very young women, feel very comfortable.

Durability, despite the age of my versions, is super.
Sillage I find pleasant, therefore also in the working life well wearable.

I have fallen in love and am already looking forward to spring 2020, when Diorissimo can be used again. Of course in the hope that my two specimens will survive at least this winter, well stored.
