I naturally ask myself again - whether it makes sense to write a comment about a perfume that has been taken off the market, which potential interested parties can hardly get their hands on anymore.
But what the heck ….. I have to get this off my chest now!... :)
It is a perfume - of course - of older provenance - but this fact - after repeated sniffing - makes me forget the quarter century it has on its rounded back, due to the truly pleasant feeling it provides.
And it could just as well be a green scent of today's taste.
The daily paths I take lead me and my dog again and again over lush green meadows, past beautiful gardens, through large shady city parks, and through bright forests this summer.
One can almost grasp this wonderful nature - breathe it in. When everything around you is truly in the bloom of its life - or rather at the zenith of its beauty - -
The green summer foliage presents itself in all its shades - -
the full flower heads of summer in the gardens want to display themselves in competing vanity. During one of these walks, I wore Tendre Poison.
Either nature enhances and completes the sensation of the perfume or my "delicate poison" intensifies the perception of nature - -
For I walked through a green land of longing - -
While initially I was overwhelmed by the flowers from the gardens bordering the meadows - the green of the nearby forest becomes increasingly clear - -
A gentle wind softly brushes through the dense canopy above me, making the rays of the sun dance on the forest path …..
the green-cool breeze is surrounded again and again by slightly sweet-floral wafts -
Along the forest path mainly shaded by beeches, a small brook flows and accompanies us with its babbling on our way. It weaves a hint of aquatic freshness into the floral-green mood.
The feeling of fresh-green purity in a still cool morning flower garden with its richly nuanced floral abundance would be an adequate interpretation of this beautiful old creation.
And it was in this small forest edge area that we wandered through that I truly became aware of the associations that the delicate green-floral scent carries within it.
If it is a poison, then a pleasurable one - much like a good wine, from whose enjoyment one can also reach this lightly floating step - -
I cannot determine which gender would suit it best. - For me, despite the official recommendation for the more feminine species among us - it is a unisex perfume - which has a subtle sillage, yet a good medium longevity.
A green-floral scent, almost appearing distinguished, with a minimal soapy-fresh note, that not only attracts the flying admirers of nature ……… :))
What a lovely comment I just discovered! I don't know the scent, but I'm sure I would like it. It's a shame it's no longer available, and thank you for this wonderful description!
I just read your beautiful comment about this gorgeous fragrance. I recently got to know it myself and I'm thrilled. It's such a shame that some scents have been taken off the market. I really enjoyed following your sensitive and romantic thoughts!
It definitely makes sense to comment on discontinued fragrances. I actually want to do that more, but then I end up saving my rarities and commenting on the ones I wear more often. Tendre Poison is a wonderful scent that I still appreciate in my collection. It's green and delicately floral.
It's so fascinating how you can create or capture moods in pictures, and you've done the same here with words! The wonder at the beauty of nature goes hand in hand with the fascination for this amazing perfume. It was unjustly discontinued, just like Midnight Poison, because I know many who really miss these scents! Kudos for your beautiful fragrance impressions. :-)
I wanted to get to know it just because of the bottle. Then I read that it's a scent twin to Cabotine. And suddenly the bottle didn't seem that nice anymore; I found Cabotine terrible :o)
Yes, it's nice to read a comment that "had to come out" and sparks curiosity. It's not like you can't find the bottle at all. Thanks for the description!
Very well described - I can smell it again right now :-) . It used to be the only one of the Poisons that I liked. I should really go through all of them again to see if that's still the case... You get a green trophy for that :-) !
I can still smell it.
You get a green trophy for that :-) !
