...in the pockets of my jacket, I just found a forgotten five-euro note. Already thinking about a delicious tortilla, I put the bill in my handbag and enter DM to buy my little cat something tasty (it’s not great, but better than him eating nothing...).
As it must happen, when I grab a basket: right at the entrance, the perfumes are lurking!!! Huh, I’ve already tried most of them and don’t want them. Why didn’t I look away? There’s such a pretty little box with flowers on it calling “Take me with you!”. Mh, trying is not possible! Due to Corona, there are no sample vials. Quickly pulled out my phone and checked on Parfumo; the fragrance pyramid fits and hey, the package costs under five bucks. That’s exactly what you just found in your jacket pocket. So, this thing is coming with me.
Once home, I immediately try it out - no, the cat had already eaten in the morning - so there’s nothing for now!
That I’m not lifting a giant bottle out of the box was clear, with 30 ml. But it’s nice, reminding me of a partial lunar eclipse when the shadow of the sun only partially covers the moon.
So I spray a little bit on my skin and am pleasantly surprised! I had expected a softly floral scent. But here I smell a really sweet top note - more peach than mandarin, which stays subtly in the background. After the top note fades, the sweetness remains, and I can faintly perceive the jasmine. Rose and tuberose form a unity, while I can’t really detect lily of the valley. Instead, I already have a faint hint of old pencils, that must be the cedarwood. This powdery-floral-woody scent lingers for a while, until after hours it concludes with just a woody-creamy note.
Overall, Amazing Dahlia can last four to five hours on me. The sillage is not overwhelming but stays rather close to the body. The right perfume for the office.
That being inexpensive doesn’t always mean cheap (and I find cheap-smelling perfumes unbearable) is proven by Amazing Dahlia. Quite nice, nothing special, but at work, I don’t want to be distracted nor distract others, and for that, it’s just right!
P.S.: For all cat rights activists: Bones doesn’t live alone, he has three ladies by his side and they are all being raw-fed! And even if they play football with the vials from time to time, each of them is my darling!
I need to smell this, I've never sniffed them before.
