Anniversary fragrance
From whom I received this bottling of "Place Rouge" with the very small remainder, I do not even know.
I managed during the cleanup of my bottlings to get reasonably the view (that's not easy with the amount that lies here and will not last long).
I was astonished to discover that I had completely overlooked "Place Rouge" until now: how could this have happened?
This condition is now changing, thereby, however, also empties my small glass atomizer.
Wherever this leftover scent came from, it's worth acknowledging in a comment.
I am currently browsing enthusiastically in the treasures of Guerlain anyway; oh, what more there is to discover.
"Place Rouge" comes from a special edition launched by the house of Guerlain, which also includes "Prima Ballerina Le Boishoi".
(Gladly I still remember that Silversternacht, in which I wrote this fragrant dance of words.)
And of course "Place Rouge" is also a real Guerlain and not only because of the flacon.
Up to the earthy-gourmandigen finale offers itself a nevertheless quite exciting Duftbild dar:
The example of the "electrically charged atmosphere of a thunderstorm" is cleverly chosen.
Orange blossom, perhaps also neroli and bergamot still enjoy the summer warmth and send their fragrances generously; while rosemary is already a little prickly. As if it already anticipates the raindrops that will soon hit them all and leave shiny pearls behind.
Despite their robust outward appearance, rosemary plants, like the herbaceous lavender, are very sensitive and their aroma intensity changes under the influence of the weather.
I could often experience this phenomenon on my balcony, which was "boarded" by these two varieties for many years; unfortunately, this winter everything froze.
But back to "Place Rouge": the dark clouds that gather felt, also make the floral world of this fragrance image attentive: Jasmine and violet exude their own heavy scents even more intensely, the violet vanilla note of heliotrope - chosen here at the heart of the arrangement instead of the sensual vanilla - harmoniously tunes into this duo.
Together with the quartet of entrées already swings a wonderfully coordinated concert of fragrances in the air and surrounds with a very special magic.
Fruity and yet floral in the prelude, "Place Rouge" is already developing into a floral Chypreduft.
But of course there is still an increase ahead, that already requires the fragrance rhythm: white musk must be, expect heliotrope and the fragrance goddess vanilla, which now appears after all!
She brings a small bowl of delicious pralines for all assembled: a little sweetness never hurts!
Before still cinnamon greets with a warm embrace and "Dame Iris" appears with her powder puff - briefly powdered over it. The fragrance creature now wears a cuddly angora jacket!
Patchouli flows leisurely along and also provides a certain erotic tingle, a rich vibration in the fragrance picture, before amber makes its entrance.
Here, too, golden sparks: so finally a floral musk amber fragrance is created - a real Guerlain fragrance creation of the new generation!
Fragrance intensive and long accompanying enchants "Place Rouge".
This fragrance is not exceptional, you do not need to know it or even have it in your collection; but it is interesting to discover what Thierry Wasser composed for this special edition.
My bottling will see me through the day today with its last drops.
I'm looking forward to it: the aforementioned rain we already had, so now comes the fruity-floral scented and so necessary sun warmth on the skin.
No matter whether on the "Red Square" in Moscow or wherever:
He gives sun and a smile!
