Beautiful flanker with DNA of the original Rouge
I recently reviewed the original L'Interdit Eau de Parfum Rouge. Here follows one on the flanker Rouge Ultime. According to Parfumo, this fragrance is a limited edition. Quite possible, as most (small) flankers usually disappear over time. Sometimes quite quickly, especially with shelf warmers. A woman should test this one before it disappears again. For me, this Rouge Ultime is the most beautiful in this range. I like all of them extremely well, but for me this is one of the most beautiful women's fragrances I have ever tested. It is a fragrance that is very seductive and will probably also go down really well with men. A perfect evening fragrance in my eyes, with which a woman can score points and also feel good.

The L'Interdit range is simply great. The trademark of this range is, of course, this great tuberose note, which is even more dominant in the other fragrances in this range. In this Rouge Ultime, you get a great, balanced blend of flowers, sweet notes and some pleasant, mild spice. As already mentioned, the tuberose has been toned down a little and is balanced by a mix of jasmine, orange blossom and a little neroli. The tuberose is still in the foreground in this floral mix, but here, as mentioned, it is perfectly balanced and soft. Alongside the tuberose, the cocoa shell is the star of this creation. A soft, sweet cocoa note with a soft, gentle spiciness. This is followed by beautiful dark patchouli, which in my opinion rounds off this dark and mysterious vibe perfectly. A fragrance that captivates and somehow attracts me. This gentle woody note, which becomes stronger towards the base, is simply soft and pleasant. All in all, for me a fragrance with a lot of sex appeal.
Like all fragrances in this series, performance is top. Tuberose fragrances are usually very dominant and here it just fits. Not too penetrating, but clearly perceptible close to the skin and lasts for at least 8 hours. Perfect for evening activities, especially with more elegant outfits. It is also not unbearable in everyday life with casual outfits. However, it is much better in the evening.

For me, one of my absolute ladies' favorites. It's a shame that this is only a limited edition. However, the Original Rouge is just as good and is also worth buying.

L'Interdit Rouge's cuddlier, seductive sister
While L'Interdit Eau de Parfum Rouge comes with tangy blood orange and spicy allspice and makes a sexy hip swing. Becomes L'Interdit Eau de Parfum Rouge Ultime more powdery and cuddly by the contained cocoa, which makes it for me a wonderful Ausgehduft for the fall and winter. The L'Interdit Rouge is more summery for me and the Ultimate is the version to it which is like a cashmere sweater of cocoa and vetiver over jasmine, neroli, orange blossom and tuberose. Which makes it absolutely sexy and seductive. In the evening, the fragrance comes into its own better, since he can properly develop his full presence there.
The sillage and durability is also exactly the same as the L'Interdit Eau de Parfum Rouge and you perceive him easily 7- 8 hours. Who loves the L'Interdit Eau de Parfum Rouge will also love the Ultimate, I'm sure. :)

A great successful upgrade
In the normal blush disturbs me something that the patchouli smells too extreme so that one hardly perceives other components.
Here you can also smell patchouli but finally the other centerpieces also come to light.
The flacons look just great and noble.
The fragrance is very intense and more for the evening or in everyday life if you want to make a statement. For work he is a little drüber and I would advise against.
These fragrances are already very special but great. He smells noble warmer than the rouge and more pleasant as already mentioned above in his patchouli note.

Holy Grail
My interest in perfume slumbered long and deep within me like Smaug in Erebor. One day, as I was lost in thought on my way home, a woman walked past me, closely followed by a large and heavy cloud of vanilla scent. But neither the woman nor the scent itself awakened the dragon, it was rather the thought - no: the longing to be a cloud. Something free, fleeting, invisible and unapproachable...

At the beginning of my journey, I played it safe and bought a few of the most popular designer fragrances on the market, the so-called People Pleasers. Gradually, I got to know the fragrances and became more and more confident about which direction I wanted to go in and which not. At the same time, I tried to remain open to "detours". When I had collected a few bottles that I liked but didn't exactly take my shoes off, I began to wonder if that was all there was to it. I started to hang around in niches, fatally, chasing the dream of the (for me) perfect fragrance. After more than half a year, I was tired of chasing and resignedly began to watch others go shopping.

And then I saw this one perfume haul on YouTube. When a certain YouTuber (if you know, you know) held the red bottle up to the camera, I first thought that I already had two L'Interdits and lost interest. But then he said something that stuck with me: "This smells like Monica Bellucci". Bam. Inception accepted!

There was just one problem. The YouTuber had bought the L'Interdit Rouge, but there was still the Ultime - was it perhaps even "better"? So I watched more videos trying to compare the two versions. It didn't help until I found a short video saying that the Ultime was a bit "rounder" and more suitable for the masses, which brought me back to the beginning of my journey. So I decided to go for the potential People Pleaser.

A few weeks later, I held the L'Interdit Rouge Ultime in my hand and was annoyed. What had I been thinking? Anyway, I decided that if it smelled just a little like the original, it could stay. However, I was more or less setting myself up for disappointment.

I sprayed the fragrance into the crook of my arm, waited a few seconds and held my arm in front of my face. And what can I say...oh my God - OMG! I heard the angels singing.
That typical L'Interdit tuberose together with the cocoa note and - uff, just awesome. I could have cried. The search for the perfect fragrance is over.

Sweet, just sweet
Salve! Read for a long time here comments and statements on fragrances that interest me or compare the fragrance composition. So far I have not written a review, because I often can not sniff out the individual components. Therefore, I have always read here to find commonalities in fragrances that I like or dislike. Now that I've tested the new L'Interdit, I'm writing my first review. Why? Well, this fragrance just blows me away. Not in a positive way, though. I just find it unbearably sweet. Instant headache. The same happens to me with almost all Chanel perfumes and also with Armani Code, for example. And what do these fragrances have in common? Orange blossom/neroli, jasmine and/or tuberose. Then vetiver or tonka bean on top and ready is the headache candidate. A fragrance for young women for whom it can not be sweet and intense enough. Way too much, I had to wash it off immediately and still smelled for a long time, so the durability is as strong as the intensity. I have at home citrus trees, whose flowers smell so wonderful, and find it sooo sad that the perfumes with ingredient "orange blossom or neroli" are always so slayingly violent.

Smells like a handmade soapbar so fragrant and creamy you want to take a bite out of it. Sweet, heavy, a little cheap, but delicious.

Stickier, heavier and less sophisticated than L'Interdit EdP. I lack at least a hint of freshness or lightness here. It's just sweet.
