Simple but interesting

The dear @DieKoenigin has left me a huge bundle of samples and bottles. I probably need months to test it all. Thank you very much! Among them was also this fragrance.

Who knows me, knows that I find citrus fragrances usually boring. Here, however, it behaves completely different. Already at the first spray my nose meant "interesting!". There was something else resonating besides the lemon - which, by the way, is very well done and not at all synthetic to me. At first, I wasn't clear what until my nose called out "black tea!". So I looked at the scent notes, and lo and behold, Ceylon tea. I'll neglect the wood for now, because I can't really smell that out. But this combination of sweet and sour lemon and tea I find quite exciting. Sure, tea drinkers know that. But as a fragrance it is something special again. Ceylon tea is also said to have an aftertaste reminiscent of citrus fruits. In this respect, this would be the optimal "Marriage" of these two fragrances (Marriage refers in the jewelry trade a newly manufactured piece from two pieces of jewelry, which is coherent in itself as a single piece).

The sillage is, at least worn on clothes, ok, although not outstanding.
