Great classic...
.... with the most striking resemblance to Chanel Number 5 in extrait concentration. But at a fraction of the price. So ladies, who are addicted to the flowery aldehydes, grab the bottle! With so much money saved goes as a bonus then but loose the little black in the Rue Cambon out:)-
As it progresses, Topaze becomes a bit more powdery and dry than the original, perhaps because more inexpensive musk was processed? or because my number 5 extraits are all vintage and therefore somehow rounder than the newer editions? Who knows....
Anyway, a joyful discovery for me, as I'm addicted to exactly this restless classic as described by Parfumo Yatagan. For more modern people, then, Topaze is probably granny horror or horror granny. It makes me blissfully happy!
