Always finish reading before you want to beat me upset... argh! :D
Hi there, smelly people! How's it going? It's warm weather and will probably become hotter and hotter, pah, I always find it so exhausting. So the shorter and shorter skirts and shorts of the girls are at least a little consolation, especially if you can still see a hint of "ass-butt", waah!
And yeah, you know I'm a pervert, we've been through that, several times even. I guess I'll only change when I have a girlfriend and I'll be less drooling and less staring around... so NEVER! Mu ha ha ha ha ha ha... *sigh*... :(((( Boah... even fooling around is exhausting in this heat. And yet I'm testing a scent here now, which I'm not sure if it's not exhausting in the warm weather. It's about Candour by Humiecki & Graef, which is a nice fragrance brand in itself (especially with great scents like Eau Radieuse), but this one was rated below average.
Candour, which means "openness", is meant to radiate the solidarity and honest understanding of two people. It is about the familiarity of these people who have known each other for a long time, but who once parted ways and accidentally meet again. And they notice that all this familiarity is still there despite the recent life stories of the other person and that there is still a lot of sympathy between them.
A nice story as I find, which reminds me that I haven't seen a good friend for a year now,... sigh* But sometime,... it will be again, I will see her, we will have fun, a lot of laughs and afterwards I will grumble and complain that she is sweet and beautiful, but of course she is already taken and I would like to have something like her (aaaaaaargh, damn "Friendzone" :DDD Wait, I'm going to scream again: Aaaaaaaargh :DDD) :DD
So... you'll probably hear a lot of me bitching and moaning around here, hey hey hey *sigh*
But good, I'm going to get to the scent now!
Here's something that frankly bothers me more. Milk! I find that milk is a rather strange fragrance in perfumes in general and it just doesn't fit in enough fragrances for me! Okay, first of all I have to admit that I don't like milk as a fragrance very much, and I even find the smell of boiling milk quite repulsive. And unfortunately the scent of milk here seems to me like a mix of cool and boiling milk and apart from the fact that I don't like such scents as I said, I also think that this just doesn't fit to the rather fresh green notes here. And as if this wasn't enough (even if the milk note wears off a little bit later on), (green) cardamom smells pretty awful to me here too, actually even worse than milk, as the milk note gets weaker and weaker as the scent progresses, but the cardamom gets more and more biting.
So it doesn't help if you can perceive sweet and normally also quite nice smelling scents like almond and vanilla in the background, because they remain too much in the background or are covered by cardamom (at least if this unpleasant, biting scent should come from cardamom).
In the end, the smell just doesn't get any better for me. The cardamom/milk mixture simply destroys the scent for me and is so badly smelling that after many hours I am very happy that I have finally "got the scent behind me". Sure, I could have washed it off beforehand, but then I wouldn't have experienced the basis to tell you about it. Well... shall I tell you again about all the things I do for you? So please forgive my little anecdote about "ass attachments" on short shorts and stuff like that :DDD
The bottle! The bottle is rectangular, narrow and rather simple. On the front side you can see a narrow stripe representing the label. It is closed with a cylindrical cap (made of wood?). Nice, but a bit simple, which purists will surely like very much.
With fragrances or scents, as here in this perfume, it is different. Those are scents (in this case milk or boiling milk, combined with biting and pungent cardamom), which I find extremely repulsive and where I just want to run away. With scents like this, I keep asking myself who might like them at all, but well, tastes are different (the one friend mentioned in the introduction likes milky scents *gulp*), but honestly: No! I think that most of this fragrance smells really awful...
If I had a date sometime (no matter how unlikely it is now... :D), and the girl would absolutely want to wear this scent, then... well... I would leave (or????), even though I have been complaining about being permanently single for years. But I think you understand how little I really liked this scent here, if I say something like that, right? :D
Booah,... test it for me (as I said, tastes are different), but I would rather recommend autumn for a test, where the biting scent is not intensified by sunlight and you can't breathe anymore :D
Well,... uuuh, scary that somehow many people seem to like it, when I look at some of the comments here... you guys are stupid... :D he he he, little joke :D
That's it, I'm glad that the scent is gradually fading away. And I wish you a nice evening, see you next time :)

But good, I'm going to get to the scent now!
The smell:
The fragrance begins with a variety of scents, most of which are green and tart. I smell sage, lavender and some ginger, plus some "biting" scents like cardamom (here, as I said, more biting than sweet-spicy). Here's something that frankly bothers me more. Milk! I find that milk is a rather strange fragrance in perfumes in general and it just doesn't fit in enough fragrances for me! Okay, first of all I have to admit that I don't like milk as a fragrance very much, and I even find the smell of boiling milk quite repulsive. And unfortunately the scent of milk here seems to me like a mix of cool and boiling milk and apart from the fact that I don't like such scents as I said, I also think that this just doesn't fit to the rather fresh green notes here.

So please forgive my little anecdote about "ass attachments" on short shorts and stuff like that :DDD
The Sillage and the durability:
The sillage is normal average, i.e. neither close to the body nor room filling violent. So it will be quite normal to smell it for a while. The shelf life is almost eternal, over twelve to fourteen hours the scent lasts...The bottle! The bottle is rectangular, narrow and rather simple. On the front side you can see a narrow stripe representing the label. It is closed with a cylindrical cap (made of wood?). Nice, but a bit simple, which purists will surely like very much.
Conclusion:
Boooah! No, no, I really didn't like this smell. For me it is one of those scents that I find really repulsive, because I just don't like some scents. And yes, I mean really off-putting. For example, if it was strong oud or something like that, then I would only have said that I'm not a big fan of oud, because with well-done scents the oud doesn't bother me so much. Maybe I would feel a bit pity that the fragrance then contains oud, but I wouldn't really be disgusted. With fragrances or scents, as here in this perfume, it is different. Those are scents (in this case milk or boiling milk, combined with biting and pungent cardamom), which I find extremely repulsive and where I just want to run away. With scents like this, I keep asking myself who might like them at all, but well, tastes are different (the one friend mentioned in the introduction likes milky scents *gulp*), but honestly: No!
