Endless Surprise

Hello there! You really are a sweet surprise. It’s something special to find this in the perfume department, especially in the men’s section. The bottle may not quite match my personal taste, as it is a bit large and unwieldy, but perhaps that is intentional.

The scent itself is not at all what one would expect when looking at Parfumo. At first glance, one might think it’s a classic men’s fragrance from bygone times, suitable for a somewhat overly perfumed math teacher. But in reality, you are served a delicious gourmand treat here. I say "treat" because it smells to me like an enticing marzipan ball, evoking anticipation for the Christmas market.

I even have the feeling that this fragrance carries a hint of whiskey, as if you’ve been out with friends after a few glasses at the Christmas market. It’s a wonderful scent, not overly complicated or profound, but definitely a great companion for the winter season.

For awkward and/or oversized bottles where applying with one hand is difficult, I do it like this: it works with Pi (I own it too) - I turn the opening of the spray head to the thinner side, and then it works really well. Unfortunately, that doesn’t work with the 100 ml "La Panthère." The Perris Monte Carlo bottles are also quite unwieldy, but it took me a while to come up with this idea. I really like the scent as well. I don’t understand why it’s only listed as masculine.
