90- 60- 90, tailor-made..
I hold firm: for the style of fashion as well as the label that the fragrance represents, it is 100% successful for me. Keeping in mind the creations of Dries van
Noten along with his shows, with the music in my ears, this fragrance fits perfectly.
A worn, unobtrusive style full of softly gentle tones, which is accentuated by color splashes, silver-golden patterns, or soft, changing embroideries
on fabrics of all kinds. Naturally left as is, from delicate to coarsely structured linen, silk, wool, hemp, fine weaves as well as robust knits.
Refined cuts appear very simple, overlaps, geometrically often striking, and yet everything looks harmonious, soft-flowing. High-quality with a touch of casually elegant sloppiness, sensual, nothing too much, too loud. Even the bottle fits perfectly.
A very short, very lively spicy-citrus opening, with an immediately slightly bitter hint, as if lemon balm explodes under my nose.
This fresh crispness transports a certain melancholic weight, a seriousness, and carries this feeling into the
heart note with me. The very short fireworks develop on my skin within 10 minutes from zesty to softly powdery, almost dusty sandalwood,
accompanied by a distinct note of saffron, along with nutmeg/clove, the gourmand oriental quickly hits the mark. All in all, the fragrance comes across as very androgynous at this stage. From the almost proud dryness springs, in any case, a portion of soft, unsweetened jasmine, which takes a bit of the
roughness from the fragrance, makes it softer, creamier, but does not transport anything blooming, rather it appears very static.
Dry jasmine tea, a sip of vanilla milk heated just over the point, and butter cookies (sulfurol was used, which according to a clever list smells: meaty, nutty, yeasty, and bready),
best from Tuc, and not the sweet ones!! In the base, a slightly bitter-dry Peru balsam mixes in. After an hour of dry down
the fragrance turns once again towards musk, it no longer smells of vanilla, nor of cookies and organic ;) it becomes a bit too much Cashmeran next to the sandalwood, and that feels somewhat artificial to me. But, I have worn the fragrance now for the fourth time, I fear an empty sample :)) so I think, from my skepticism, love will grow. I am already slightly addicted, this fragrance
evokes trust, it slowly feels its way in :)
The longevity is good.
Sillage initially mediocre, becoming very close to the skin.
Sophisticated, aloof, calm, warm, cozy, and very special!!
I am eagerly waiting for the next fragrance in the series, about and from
people who inspire Frederic Malle!

I was very amused when Frederic Malle shyly smiled and replied:…it's good
when Dries mentioned that his favorite fragrance as a teenager was Yatagan!:D
Frederic got to scent himself with Eau Sauvage, as his mother worked for Dior.
Poor boys ;)

Habe den Duft gerade auf dem Handgelenk und ob mir die Milch-Keks-Note gefällt, bin ich mir noch nicht sicher...hat aber was heimeliges
aber ab der Herznote, wird er Dir zu trocken-rauchig!
