Vedette Dita von Teese 2023

I first became aware of Dita von Teese as a "friend of...". Later as "the one in the giant martini glass". I came across her in the perfume world when I was looking for a fragrance that smelled like lipstick. This was exactly when her new perfumes came onto the market. Coincidence or fate? As there were no reliable reviews yet, I went to the nearest Rossmann to test the fragrances. Unfortunately, the stores hadn't heard about the release. An employee told me that the last time she had heard of a fragrance by this artist was 10 years ago. However, some of the fragrances were already sold out on the website.

I thought to myself that you can't usually go wrong with a rose fragrance. Why else would you give your loved ones a rose with as many petals as possible? For many, the rose is also the most beautiful flower. So I ordered blindly.

I looked at the slender and beautiful reddish bottle in my hand. The black tassel felt wonderfully silky. Then I couldn't stand it any longer and carefully sprayed the fragrance on myself.

But instead of landing in a bed of rose petals, I felt like I was holding my nose deep in a barrel of rainwater. In the height of summer. At least there were still a few fresh rose petals floating on the surface of the smelly broth. A real shame but this fragrance is simply not for me.
