Dr. Jekyll and Ms. Hyde
Today for the first time Dries van Noten tried.
What can I say? I'm torn between two sides. The scent starts with sour milk, smells almost like vomit from babies. However, a wonderfully sweet vanilla pod swings subliminally.
On the one hand I am really repelled by this "baby puke" on the other hand very attracted by this delicious vanilla. The first few minutes I have to really hold back, not to go wash off the scent...
Whoever endures like me will be rewarded, this extreme acid milk smell fades with time more and more into the background. Later this note is only noticeable when I sniff directly at my wrist.
Throughout the whole fragrance process I clearly perceive a really great vanilla. not artificial and not too sweet either. still generous but not too overloaded. Those who like vanilla should give Dries van Noten a chance.
Even if the fragrance starts with a really slanted top note, it gets better and better over time. The vanilla is accompanied by a beautifully balanced spiciness. I can't smell it, but it's still really tasty, somehow an oriental vanilla cream.
After some time, the creamy sandalwood loosens up the scent a bit and the sweetness also takes a back seat.
With two sprayers I fogged the whole living room. The initial ***smell, however, is only perceived quite closely. The radiation mainly smells vanilla. So don't worry ;)
The durability with a good 8 hours is great. Now it can only be perceived very closely, but I wear the scents primarily for myself and not for the environment.
I am still torn back and forth and will probably only be able to give my final result after several tests.
Something really different, even if it starts in the corner, Dries van Noten has something :)
Conclusion: If you like unusual things and like to experience vanilla in a different way, you've come to the right place.
