Chypre Godet 1908

The observation after the new Chypre from Godet was that it actually isn't a Chypre.
Well, how about this one?
I would say it has significantly more signs of a Chypre, but primarily this is a balsamic dream.
Yes, I smell aldehydes, with a slight freshness, not too citrusy, more like bergamot.
And there are also flowers, probably the rose, but others as well.
A slight soapiness, but minimal.
Quickly, a light creaminess comes into play.
While the new version has a slightly masculine touch, this one is initially very feminine and elegant.
Subtly powdery.
It becomes a bit darker and balsamic.
Now it is also well wearable for men.
The dark and balsamic notes become more intense.
Definitely benzoin, or something similar, amber is likely involved too.
It's wonderful.
It has an incredible depth and in this depth is a hint of freshness.
Maybe the moss?
All in all, a soft, balsamic dream.
I find the current one nice, but this one is 1000 times more beautiful.
It is much fuller, deeper, and has so much more presence.
It was a blind purchase and for me, a total hit.
