To fall asleep. Really now?
I got to know Sir Gallahad a few years ago, but rather by chance. After a perfume order, the accompanying greeting card was sprayed with this scent that enveloped the entire package in a fine floral-powdery veil. The fragrance, which I had not known until then, immediately reminded me of something very pleasant from the past. Something I can't describe, but which captivated me immensely. For me, it is privately beautiful, and I immediately ordered the bottle - which really doesn't happen often for me!
Sir Gallahad by Isabey Paris is very floral and, in my opinion, a spring fragrance. Crocus and gardenia in the opening make it particularly appealing to me, as I usually see these notes only in feminine fragrances. Jasmine, tobacco, and amber make it increasingly creamy and pleasing in the dry down. Longevity and sillage are moderate and perfectly fine for my purposes - which I will elaborate on shortly.
The packaging and the bottle are something different and I like them very much. The glass is heavy and thick, the cap and the glass have a frosted design that I also really appreciate. Creamy, slightly powdery, and especially very floral at the beginning - that is Sir Gallahad for me. It's actually not my usual style.
I hardly wear this fragrance outside, but only for myself at home, and I sleep with Sir Gallahad! There, I've said it :-)
I never thought I would own a sleep fragrance. Here it is now. It has something very comforting and soothing for me. I spray my bedding with it - especially in spring. By now, I also do this in other seasons, just whenever I feel like it.
I can't tell you exactly what fascinates me about this scent. But many who deal with perfume surely know this feeling. Some things are simply not tangible or describable in words. That's how I feel about Sir Gallahad.
