Chant d'Arômes Guerlain Eau de Toilette

I wrote this review in Word beforehand. To publish it, my daughter had to open the fragrance page and scroll everything in such a way that I couldn’t see the ingredients. The reason:

I don’t want to. =:-I

At the end of February, I had my birthday, and my husband received a list of fragrances that I would be happy with. He chose this one for me and - what could be more contrasting - the Ginger Lover by Azzaro. Grin.

So both were on the dining table in the morning with a bouquet of flowers, a candle, and a stuffed animal. I immediately unboxed the Chant d'Arômes and sprayed it on. I was blown away by this lovely, delicate scent. And it lives up to its name, as generally described: You really can’t pick out any particular flower. They all sing in a harmonious scent choir.

It’s a bit powdery, but not too much.

It’s also not too floral (for me).

It’s silky soft and light, yet still has character.

I felt like a young girl - but also like a sophisticated lady.

How does it do that, I wondered.

I then announced to my husband that I didn’t want to know the ingredients at all for now. Movie quote from Tomb Raider: “My ignorance amuses me!” I said I would check the next day. But I didn’t. Not the day after either. I wore it all weekend.

In the following week, I also didn’t want to destroy the fine magic with mundane, scientific knowledge.

The weekend after, the flowers had wilted, but I wanted to recapture the birthday feeling and wore it several times. I even used a shower gel that matches it, namely “Fiorito” by Bioearth.

That was two weeks ago. While cleaning, I smile lovingly at the bottle (by the way, it doesn’t look like it does here, but resembles more the beehives from the Aqua Allegoria series). I can still perceive the fragrant harmony song and don’t want to know what’s inside.

It can stay like this now.
