Apparitional

It is October 2021, more than 1.5 turbulent years are behind us, which made us rethink and faced challenges. Especially people like me - students.

For 3 semesters, we sat at home, waiting. We questioned - ourselves, our study choices, politics. Kind of a forgotten species, in my opinion.
But then, at the end of August, the liberating news: we're going back to face-to-face teaching!
Incredibly, after open clubs, packed football stadiums and everlasting discussions about schools, it's finally our turn again. We're getting our lives back. At least in large part.

So I pack my seven things and drive from my parents to my apartment, where I've been hanging out for the past year and a half more than I care to remember. There was nowhere to go.
I pack my backpack, my clothes (no idea what you look like when you go to uni every day??) and of course I think about my perfume. A few weeks ago I participated in my first sharing and I know for sure, there's a little sample of Twilly in my mailbox. I don't know what it smells like and I've never tried it before, but the reviews are enticing.

Monday - the first day of college. Every one of my friends knows I'm the one with the perfume quirk. Of course, I want to live up to the reputation and just put on this fragrance in my euphoria - without having sniffed it before. Besides, I want to appear well-groomed and smelling good in the university.

I'm late, so I run, but already on the first meters I doubt whether it could not have been a mistake. Without knowing the scents, I smell the ginger directly. But in a strange way, not pungent, not fresh, totally powdery, although that doesn't fit ginger for me. I smell a bit like a symbiosis between mom and grandma.
I'm not happy, so I had not imagined the first day fragrance-wise. But it can not be helped, I must now continue otherwise I'm still late for the first lecture.

The sillage is overwhelming in the first hours, I'm a little afraid that my fellow students soon sit away, whether the intense perfume cloud. But with time I like the fragrance better, whether I'm just used to it (because I'm not a big fan of powdery fragrances) or I like it in the meantime - I'm unsure. After 2-3 hours is of the fragrance mainly the described spiciness for me perceptible (sweet I can not recognize), which in turn I like very very much. But hardly have I enjoyed the spice, he is also already gone from my skin.
On the clothes he is still longer perceptible, so that I also now and then a little cloud pokes in the nose. I like what I smell, meanwhile.

In the evening I lie on the couch - quite exhausting so a day at the university, you are no longer accustomed to anything. And it has also been an adjustment, but the remains of Twilly give me security, although I wear it for the first time. It just feels comfortably warm, and yet the spice also gives me a bit of that "bossy" feeling - maybe the right start to the new semester?

It's not going to be my new favorite, and it'll probably stay bottled - but Twilly is an apparition for me. In every respect - a strong start (especially if you like it powdery), a great development, strong sillage and a great feeling that is conveyed to me. For me, a very interesting fragrance!
