scented New Year's Eve gala
This fragrance is a real child of his family: the secret that Guerlain puts into his classic fragrances immediately enchants, no matter how it is composed.
(By the way, secrets should be respected and not questioned!)
Thus this "Prima Ballerina" immediately pirouettes herself into the heart of the receptive perfume lover; an enchanting scented dolly enters the stage and awaits applause!
"Prima Ballerina Le Bolshoi" spreads the almost forgotten flair of a large magnificent staircase and a red-white-golden auditorium: the charm of the Moscow theatre of the same name.
The ladies' evening gowns rustle promisingly; the gentlemen are once again only "accompanying penguins":
the old magic of these "temples of the muses" still works!
The air is heavy with chattering people and precious scents: noble champagne bubbles in the glasses and the laughter of many a charming woman is also sparkling.
The parquet, the boxes and the tiers slowly fill up; the still distracted audience takes its places: they greet each other, they look at each other. (Mirror, mirror in hand: who is the most beautiful one tonight?)
It is always advisable to sit a little further back: not only because of the better view of the stage (and of possible hustle and bustle in the auditorium)!
No, further ahead the tapp-tapp-tapp of the lead caps in the tips of the satin shoes on the wooden floor is too clearly audible; it slightly impairs even the most dreamlike ballet performance, underpinning a powerful orchestra.

Guerlain's "Prima Ballerina" loves to make a big entrance: she comes as Fairy Dragée in the "Nutcracker", as Odette/Odile in the fairytale "Swan Lake" or as Princess Aurora in the enchanted "Sleeping Beauty", accompanied by Tchaikovsky's incomparable ballet music, mostly still dancing in the footsteps of the choreography by Marius Petipa!
The classical attitude is her world, into which she so gladly takes us!
This fragrance creature soon whirls all its precious ingredients around: the fresh citrus aromas and the resinous, somewhat stubborn pine needles are generously surrounded by full-bloomed jasmine, the one with the large white petals and golden faces, and erotic crackling vanilla.
The special sweetness of the tonka bean does not frighten me here; it puts special highlights in this vibrating and yet so elegant floating and gliding.
Thus a round dance of dancing scent spirits is created!
"Prima Ballerina Le Bolshoi" is creamy white, pink and lilac; girlish and yet knowing, glamorous and enticing.
A touch of stage make-up and indescribable magic complete a fascinating scented cape.

I like it, this feathery something that so beguilingly nestles up against me, embraces me and warms me Does it perhaps suspect that I prefer the Kirov/Mariinski Ballet Company from St. Petersburg to their Moscow location? Is that why you want me to be seduced?
"Oh, come on, you beauty: Just try it! Tonight everything is allowed!"

So Guerlain's "Prima Ballerina" is exactly the right companion for today's New Year's Eve, the "Beautiful Mask" of a special kind.
Caution: She is not affectionate, not faithful, but rather even a little volatile.
But today something ends, even if perhaps in Viennese waltz time or in many exuberant pirouettes!

Whether this turn of the year is accompanied by the "Beautiful Blue Danube" or the "Fireworks Music":
I would like to take this opportunity to wish you a healthy and happy new year, which I hope will bring us all together here again!
I would also like to thank you for faithfully reading and answering my comments and especially for the affection that has been shown to me so richly over the past weeks.

However hard the "Kopfli" may be tomorrow ("Champagne is to blame ..."!):
It's gonna be okay!
For this year I say goodbye with all the best wishes and a big hug!
Not exactly from the big stage, but coming from the heart!
