Beautiful Lilac Dream
Here, dear Dita has created a truly special fragrance. Beautiful, natural lilac notes cuddle with musk and heliotrope. The scent is delicate and very feminine. At first, the lilac dominates and merges with the skin into a powdery, creamy scent cloud. A very good and affordable fragrance in a lovely nostalgic bottle. A dream for every lilac fan.

Give the Slut Lilac Soap!
England, in the late forties or early fifties.
The burlesque dancer comes home from work. She smells of cigarette and cigar smoke - of expensive cigars, because the establishment where she performs is upscale. Her audience consists of gentlemen from the upper echelons of society: well-known actors, nobility, yesterday she even spotted a minister in the crowd. The scent of the bar, still clinging to her, mingles with a hint of her perfume. It is a wicked yet noble perfume. After all, she is not a whore, but an artist, and a well-paid one at that! Rumor has it that even a member of the royal family once spent a lot of money to see her perform. Is that true? Only she knows.
She takes a bath, using expensive bath salts, and scrubs the scent of the bar off her skin with her lilac soap. It is an expensive soap that a lover from Paris brought her. She washes her face, and a hint of her powder mixes with the scent of the bath foam and the luxurious soap. She steps out of the bath, dries herself with a thick, soft bath towel, and wraps herself in her morning robe made of precious silk.

This is how this fragrance smells to me: freshly washed, like expensive lilac soap, nostalgic. Not of this time, like a perfume from the first half of the 20th century or even from the 19th century. If someone were to give me this perfume to smell and say it was a well-preserved vintage scent from 1950, I would believe it immediately!
It is a ladylike, elegant, clean scent, though not entirely innocent. I find that the wicked femme fatale note from the other Dita perfumes is also present here, even if it hides behind a thick piece of noble soap. The fragrance is very feminine and smells much more expensive than it actually was. If it were placed in the bottle of a certain niche brand and given an appropriate name, I am sure it would be praised to the heavens here. It has certainly convinced me completely - and that, despite the fact that I could usually be hunted down with lilac perfume! Lilac perfume has, until now, seemed to me something for grandmothers and old maids of bygone times.

I use this fragrance whenever I actually don’t want to wear perfume but just want to smell fresh and like precious soap. It instantly clears the head, lifts the mood - and it can even have something magical: It catapults you straight back to the fifties, the twenties, or even the Victorian era - a little imagination required.

Favorite Color - yes, Favorite Fragrance? - no
I love the color purple in all its shades. For this reason alone, the fragrance made it onto my "want list".
Yesterday at DM, the fragrance was on the shelf - unfortunately without a tester. But I am known for blind purchases, and at that price, you can't go wrong.
I had also bought the last fragrance from Dita, "Rouge", blind and was not disappointed.

Well, long story short - this fragrance is one of my mispurchases.

I like lilac scents - Pur Désir de Fleurs Lilas by Yves Rocher or After my own Heart by Ineke are great lilac fragrances. Light lilac fragrances.

But FleurTeese starts off immediately after spraying as a lilac bomb, the emphasis here is on 'bomb', and instead of "flying away" over time, meaning becoming softer, the fragrance actually increases in intensity. I don't know if it's really the lilac that overwhelms me here or if it's more the lily.

Last night, I only applied one spray to my left forearm, and this morning I could still perceive the fragrance strongly.

Sure, I have one or two powerhouses in my collection when it comes to fragrance intensity, but it also depends on the ingredients that play together or push themselves to the forefront.

Who knows if I will like this fragrance one day, but it will remain in my collection solely because of the beautiful bottle.

That was my first thought: 1 A body lotion. Or fancy face cream. Or nice hand cream. In any case, thick, rich white cream.
Clean, pure, floral, well-groomed, rich, enveloping, protective, radiant.
For me: no overt floral scent. Definitely not old-fashioned. I am amazed: something this clean from Miss von Teese? No burlesque in sight, instead a white, fresh, gentle purity, with a few delicate flowers floating here and there. But far from a bouquet. Or rather, if it is a bouquet, then each individual flower is drenched in this white cream. The lily is un-lily-like, the lilac barely recognizable, and the iris only contributes to these fresh-white-creamy moments instead of the usual powdery notes.
The impact is surprisingly strong: Madison Soirée is an equal volume reference, while I found the Bond far too soapy and strict. FleurTeese, on the other hand, is much softer and smoother, yet still boasts excellent longevity and sillage.
A creamy gem for the super slim wallet. And of course, for the clean animal list.

An Old Country Garden
Dita is a highly complicated person, that much is clear. The jazz club appearance in black, the grand opera performance in rouge, and now? When Dita relaxes, she has an old country garden, down-to-earth, that’s where she comes from.

The opening is citrusy fresh, not as musty as bergamot can sometimes be, and it keeps the sweet Arabian jasmine in check along with the lily. A pleasant start, like drawing back curtains and letting in the sun. From the very beginning, the base notes can be sensed; the cedarwood smells freshly cut, sandalwood and musk announce themselves in the finest powder. These are not wood shavings.

It quickly becomes clear that it is a lilac scent, which fully comes into its own after a few minutes, pleasantly supported by borage, it must be garden borage, with its subtle spicy sharpness, powdery iris, simply soothing and calming.

The top note fades after the cheerful appearance in about 30 minutes. The lilac remains elegantly in the background but sets the tone without being forward. Heliotrope and the base keep the rhythm, very soft and flowing; even the somewhat smoky cedar blends in and now appears aged and finely cut. Iris and musk make everything shine in clean, pale violet powder and give the fragrance its diffuse radiance, just as if dust particles were dancing in the half-shadow when they are hit by a sunbeam.

This association comes to my mind. It’s as if one were sitting in the half-shadow and looking through half-closed eyelids into a sunlit garden. Occasionally, one catches a small breeze that brushes past all kinds of flowers and hedges without ever being able to pinpoint them exactly. The scent spreads just like that; it breathes, sometimes a distinct lilac scent wafts by, followed by musk like freshly washed laundry in the sun. A woodpile next door, a bit herbal, but never sweet and overwhelming.

A very mature and settled fragrance. It reminded me of something from my childhood with the first spray, though I can't name it. For me, an absolutely successful nostalgic scent that I will definitely wear often.

And you tease me, please release me, you lilac monster in synthetic mode. Besides a very biting floral imitation, I can hardly smell anything.

Floral, soapy are the right keywords. Subtly dosed but very elegant. Like the silk scarf tied around the curlers.

Unfortunately no longer available, but I liked it a lot. Creamy lilac, soft and elegant. The little crystal bottle was a real eye-catcher.
