My teacher

While cleaning out, I discovered a sample of Twilly that had been sitting unnoticed in the closet for several years and after a quick test on a strip of paper, immediately put it with the samples I was going to give away or throw away. I found it super unpleasant, pungent and had to wrinkle my nose. So should smell at most a very old well-groomed woman, but not me in my early 30s...

Coincidentally, I saw that day a video on Youtube, in which this fragrance was praised by a woman my age. I was shocked and did further research on Youtube to see if she was the only one describing Twilly as pleasant and confident. In fact, several perfume youtubers review it extremely positively as a signature scent or an expensive smelling perfume, etc. And I just thought to myself: so if they all like this awful scent, their videos won't do me any good anymore, because their tastes don't seem at all similar to mine.

To confirm my opinion and be able to throw away the test strip with the "granny scent", I sniffed the test strip again after my "Twilly research" and wondered if I was holding the wrong strip, because this scent had nothing to do with what I smelled right after spraying it on. He smelled powdery pleasant and special.

The next day, I sprayed on Twilly and drove to work. The top note I still felt old and unfashionable. During the car ride, however, a scent kept getting up my nose that gave me a comforting feeling and that was indeed Twilly!!! I couldn't believe I had almost thrown this scent away.

Never did I think I could fall in love with a perfume whose top notes I find awful. However, Twilly has taught me that I need to give some fragrances more time to get to know their true selves and appreciate them. By now, I like it so much that I don't even mind the opening of the fragrance experience anymore. Unfortunately, I find the sillage quite weak, I wish people around me could notice more of this elegance. But since I always had to think of and sniff Twilly, despite several new ersoukten bottlings, I have enriched my life with a bottle of Twilly.

I am now open to loves on second sniff. Thank you Twilly.
