And somehow it's a rose..

Years ago, during a stay in hospital, my roommate, when asked, told me about her fragrance, which was engraved in my memory: L Ombre dans l Eau.
Now I received with a purchase over the Souk a sample.
The first impression: oops, it is fresh and green (almost frightening)! But it doesn't resemble in any way any fragrance that has been one of my favourites so far.
But the screaming green gives way quickly and then something remains that someone here once called "Weleda wild rose aura" And maybe that is exactly what fascinates me about this fragrance. The contrasts, the extraordinary and the quietly in secret blooming rose.
Finally, the ultimate test; the whole office day every now and then carefully patted on the forearm. Should I make an investment in a fragrance that might turn out to be an expensive mistake?
And again - first green and fresh but without the usual eau de cologne or citrus hints. And where I miss the strength and durability, in reality the wild (?) - rose cuddles on my arm and accompanies me through the day Already in the afternoon of this day my decision is made and the joy about the promise of my souk partner to send me the scent as soon as possible reconciles me with all the adversities of the day.
