Potion Blue Cadet Dsquared² 2013

Dear noses,

I have noticed that this fragrance is still
uncharted territory, which I would like to plow for
you with my Bulbus Ifaktorius.

Recently at the fragrance bar, I just wanted to get an impression
of what spring smells like this year. All sorts of wafts from the brand:
"been there, done that" shook my nose's paw, even though I
definitely told the lady behind the counter, "Only the good stuff."

The "blue cadet" failed to impress me at first glance,
just like many other fragrances. But this one at least got to take
a place on my right wrist, resting there and did not end up like the others,
as a white paper strip, with a flag of anonymous alcoholics,
in the graveyard of nameless scents.

Disappointed by this year's spring fragrance happy hour, I made my
escape. But the further I moved away from the fragrance station
of trust, the better my right hand suddenly smelled.

I decided not to put the counter-evidence to the test, fearing my dorsum manus
might just as quickly lose its appeal again if I returned to
the source.

It smelled so heavenly and I didn't want to miss my scent mark for anything
in this world. The thought of "heavenly" gave me a déjà-vu.

In any case, I now know where the saying: "talk to the
hand!" comes from. Some sort of Terminator probably couldn't let go of his paws
after a heavy fragrance high, just like I did that evening.

But to return to the heavenly déjà-vu: At a close
distance, the so-called "tissue-filling distance," this fragrance develops into
"Heaven" by Chopard. And from a slightly greater distance,
one perceives a less intrusive, more elegant version of
Lagerfeld "Man".

Both are fragrances that are no longer produced and that I really
liked. This blend is contained in a bottle that could just as well
serve as a container for a stain-remover water.

This makes the fragrance perhaps less attractive for last-minute gifts; the
likelihood that a third party on the street smells just as heavenly might decrease.
In this regard, the ugly face in the form of the top note, which initially led me
around by the nose, is also very helpful.
