It is a bold wine with a touch of sophistication and a lack of pretension - I believe it could be better … You can immediately taste the blackcurrant
Just as Meg Ryan in "French Kiss" discovers the scents of the wine only on the second try, I experienced something similar with Jicky by Guerlain.
I admit. I was worried whether the first perfume, "établi avec" synthetic fragrance materials, and not just from the previous century, but from the previous millennium could somehow resonate with me in the 21st century. And LAVENDER, described as a heart note in excess. I don’t know. When I stroll from my garage driveway into the garden and let my hand brush over the lavender bushes ... Then the evening is surely not far off and I don’t need to chase away scorpions with it.
The perfume is, well, not affordable for everyone. Unless you are perhaps a regular guest at the Salzburg Festival. Therefore, I settled for the Eau de Parfum. After several attempts, I found the right day and then.
Wow! You can immediately smell the bergamot and lemon. The lavender is covered by jasmine and vanilla, only to give way after a while to amber, incense, and civet. The oriental notes become dominant as the evening progresses. Behind sinful veils glow night-encircled doe eyes that carry the embers of the sunset within them. A souk in Casablanca, a secluded courtyard in a sheikh's house? Full of bougainvillea, orchids, spices, and the scent of an opulent dinner in Lebanon?
Rarely has a fragrance touched me so, so unexpectedly.
I actually wanted to gift the scent to my sweetheart for Valentine's Day. Well. Unexpected things often happen.
I’ll keep it and look for a bouquet of flowers.....
And besides: the plastic cap doesn’t do justice to the ambition of the bottle anyway.
