A declaration of love for Eau Absolue
I used to stop whenever I walked past a jasmine bush to sniff it and sink into the perfection of its scent for a while with my eyes closed.
Jasmine has for me something comforting familiar.
Today I worked a lot, I'm through. I need something nice now.
You, my Eau Absolue. I need you now.
Your lotus rises from my wrist, now and then also reach me green notes of freesia, which, however, already says goodbye after a few moments, before one had perceived it properly.
Ah, Eau Absolue...you are so soft floral-soft...
I once had a jasmine bush in my shared room when I went on an exchange to England for my studies. My room smelled of jasmine all the time, day and night of this beguilingly beautiful white scent, which in real is not at all sultry or sweet, but soft, delicate and also contains green notes. That's exactly how you change now, Eau Absolue, after about 10 minutes - you smell like my little jasmine bush from back in the day...
A drop of honey to it and yet you seem to me at no time sweet, but always balanced, "soft" I would describe you best, you are soft as flowing fabric, so cool and smooth, which one wants to touch again and again to evoke this special feeling again and again.
Your warm vanilla bed slowly becomes noticeable, I can still smell your lotus far into the heart note. I like that, this spicy, floral but somehow something peculiar of the lotus.
I used to find you mostly sensual, your tuberose took my breath away and my mind, I suddenly felt like a Victorian girl who had been warned not to get spontaneous orgasms when smelling the tuberose oil.... but by now I know you, Eau Absolue. And by now I just find you clean, round, pleasant. You are less "sex", more "cuddling". Comforting.
You also contain tart woody notes that blend beautifully with the lotus-tuberose-jasmine-vanilla blend.
You are a fragrance for the evening, a fragrance for the night just like your night-blooming jasmine and night hyacinth (the tuberose), but you can also be a fragrance for the morning. Only in the bright sunlight you do not feel comfortable.
Edit:
I wrote this comment about two years ago. Since my nose was still perfume-inexperienced and liked especially what was pleasing and modern. Sweet fragrances, youthful fragrances and indolic white bloomers.
Since then I have worn Eau Absolue little, it is simply a fragrance that requires at least an evening ball. Add to that the fact that my boyfriend is asthmatic and reacts to most fragrances (though he liked this one).
In the course of sorting out the fragrance has fallen back into my hands and I sprayed him to test him once again.
I perceive him now completely different! This is really amazing.
Pappsüß, with a hint of bubble gum. Still there are beguiling white flowers, but accompanied by a whole load of sugar and synthetics.
The scent is still good, round, tuberose.
But, wow, no longer mine.
I also believe that it has also changed somewhat in the storage time, because - I remember - when I sniffed it for the first time back then in the duty free from the London airport, a gentle cloud of incredibly soft jasmine enveloped me, indolic, inviting to dreams, wonderful, that I had to spontaneously close my eyes. The color champagne, delicate flowing silk as a fragrance.
That's how I want to remember him.
