Tutù Gritti 2019 Extrait de Parfum

A fragrance that picks me up. The opening in particular reminds me of the delicious, sweet fruity chewing gum balls from the vending machines from my childhood. Tutu develops into a slightly powdery, soft, delicately rosy, subtly vanilla-like floral fragrance with "grown-up" depth. To my nose, the amber accord, which flashes through after about 20 minutes, achieves the latter. If it weren't for this somewhat dark depth, Tutu would actually be too girly for me. For an extrait, the fragrance doesn't smell particularly strong and radiates rather discreetly. I therefore use it liberally. It is playful, very feminine, flirty, but still mature and classy. I own a lot of floral perfumes, but none of them smell like Tutu. The fragrance doesn't undergo any striking or exciting development, but that doesn't bother me at all in its case. Somehow it makes me feel young and that is a nice feeling for me. The fact that the sweet components lose some of their weight in the drydown is very appealing to me. Tutu touches my soul and my mind in a pleasant, soothing way - what more could I want.
