Soothing Herbal Stems and Roots
Day one:
Today I received the sample of Aura from Aroree, and I want to say a heartfelt thank you once again. I was very much looking forward to this, as I had this fragrance years ago and never quite knew whether to love it or if it was too alternative for me. It somehow carries a particularly green image that I don't just like. Now I want to delve a little deeper into it and wear it for a few days.
First, I have to get used to the raw radiance of natural scents again; I am a bit out of practice as I have primarily surrounded myself with "normal" fragrances in recent weeks. I can clearly smell the essential oils here, typical for Farfalla, along with that unique spiciness associated with it. It smells herbal, incredibly green and bitter, of fibrous stems and crushed leaves, of forest and a bit of resin. Right after spraying, it is very intense, almost a little overwhelming. I also catch a scent of roots in my nose. I need to give it time to see if I want to smell like this. Perhaps I'm just not in the mood today to appreciate this fragrance properly.
After a quarter of an hour, I sniff a bitter acidity. My enthusiasm is limited; although I really like green scents, this one feels a bit too far for me at the moment. I don't smell any chamomile or sweet rose water, just angelica (root?), I assume, and a bit of grass.
Two hours after applying the fragrance, it is only faintly detectable from my wrist. It seems to exhaust itself completely at first and then has no more breath later. However, the little that I still perceive smells very fine: in the same way, but quiet and unobtrusive. It seems to be pleasant and easy to wear.
Day two:
Today is different: the scent feels comforting to me, calming, and does my soul good. It is still rooty, green, and herbal, and after many impressions of a long day, it is just right. It still has an intense top note, and only when that has faded a bit does the fragrance hit my taste. Aura is something completely different from most other perfumes, and today it is just right for me.
About the bottle: Very simple, and without any special refinement. The frosted glass feels nice and cool in the hand, the shape is handy and pleasant to use.

Und immer, wenn ich ihn auflege, muß ich erst mal diesen herrlichen Duft gaaanz tief einatmen!

Ich liebe Aura, allerdings muß ich auch für ihn in Stimmung sein. Ein sehr spezielles Parfum, welches unendlich gut tun und entspannend sein kann. Aber manchmal stört mich auch das krautige, speziell, wenn ich langen normale Parfums benutzt habe.
