Bitter Pill
Oh yes, a bitter pill that I had to swallow today. Once in the literal sense, namely to drive away the headaches triggered by the above fragrance, and the other rather metaphorically, because I would have liked to enjoy the Fendi 2004, which has such wonderful scent notes :-(
It just wasn't meant to be between us. Right from the start after applying the fragrance, my eyebrows raise in irritation, rather crumpled than delighted, you know what I mean...
Once the alcohol has evaporated, a quite strong and very bitter top note spreads on my skin, it must be the listed neroli, sparkling says Fendi in its advertising, sparkling in the sense of aggressively biting I would sign immediately.
Just like with Tom Ford's White Patchouli, Chanel's Beige, and Pure Gold by Montale, this piercing note triggers headaches for me. What a pity.
Next, iris, gardenia, and tiare are supposed to make their appearance, but even an hour later, there is no sign of them, I hope that this (for me unbearable) note will finally fade away, but it does not.
The fragrance simply becomes less intense and slowly dissipates over the next 2 hours.
From the base of sandalwood, vanilla, and amber, I sense no trace.
It is just the way it is, you can't love everyone, which has its good side, otherwise, exploding wish lists would grow beyond measure;-)
Just one request to you. I find it very unfortunate that I, due to my personal perception, could not do justice to this fragrance, which is surely beautiful for others, with my assessment. Since my comment is the only one so far, I would like to ask one of the Fendi 2004 lovers to write a positive review.
Otherwise, my report might prevent someone else from finding their great fragrance love, and that would be a shame.

You poor thing. Sometimes you do everything for the perfume lovers. No worries, your comment definitely won't scare anyone off, quite the opposite ;-))
