At the turn of the year 2019/20, I had the pleasure of staying with a friend in Paris.
She raved to me about the Fragonard fragrance museum and that she was able to take part in a perfumery workshop there and create her very own fragrance.
Wow. I quickly booked a guided tour in German and immersed myself in the wonderful world of fragrances and their mysterious and interesting production.
At the time, I was blown away by the whole atmosphere. It really is worth a visit. Above all, I fell in love with "Étoile" and bought it as an EdT 100ml in a wonderfully beautiful design in blue and gold.
Fragonard's
Étoile Eau de Toilette is for me
initially slightly alcoholic, then fresh, sparkling, citrusy - fruity. The apple comes through and light ginger. I have to sniff it again and again. Because I also think I detect warm, ripe apricots, which are not even listed in the fragrance pyramid.
The nose and emotions sometimes play tricks...
Gradually becomes more floral, softer and more restrained.
Then spicy-sweet at the end with a warming finish.
Lasts a long time on my skin. Can still be detected around 12 hours after use. In general, Fragonard fragrances are not very long-lasting and the H/S is often rated moderately. For the price, however, you can spray more often.
