Classique Pin-Up Jean Paul Gaultier 2020

Since I dared my jump into the rabbit hole of fragrance arts 3 years ago, I was allowed to discover a lot. For a long time, all fragrances smelled the same to me - no matter what I sniffed in the standard perfumeries, everything was quasi La Vie est Belle L'Eau de Parfum for me. Thanks to Parfumo, and the great samples and sharings here, completely new worlds opened up.

I tried me through umpteen brands, niche - from Amouage to XerJoff- and Indie, extreeem expensive fragrances and extreeeem hard to get fragrances (hello "box | Slumberhouse" ). Fell in love countless times, saw new horizons and fragrances that I have never smelled.
Nevertheless, I never found the ONE fragrance that captivated me so much that I only want to smell him.

Then, quite unexpectedly, after a question about possible relatives of Mon Précieux Nectar, was recommended to me in the forum Classique Pin-Up. Ok, why not order - after all, I had already bought quite other price categories blind. I liked the Guerlain, this one should last longer. The reviews are ok. Why not test - sell in the souk if necessary.

When it arrived, the bottle was already seeehr kitschy and the lemon ginger note to start a bit strange. But at the same time "merk-würdig". Everything that came after was terrific!!!! An adult marshmallow hint with pleasant vanilla and feminine soft orange blossom envelops me. Carried by ambergris, my favorite scent note, which I perceive here only in a way that makes me subliminally addicted without being animalic or intrusive. Still, it's not mundane or standard. He could be qualitatively definitely niche.

Pin Up is ME! Soft, friendly, sweet without being tacky, cuddly warm, but completely without kitsch! Not intrusive, just wonderfully fluffy without being childish. A pure feminine dream. And that, where he is so not at all hyped.

He holds with me all day and is perceptible, but never intrusive. A fine sillage he has, but completely within the framework. Perfect! An Immergeher, which works on the job just as when cuddling. I just want to smell SO.

So it happened that after a 3-year fragrance journey, Ms. Silverwheel chose a banal designer flanker as her signature scent. And that, after she has never tolerated JPG fragrances and has long sworn off the subject of "signature" due to the variety of fragrances ("why should you wear only ONE fragrance?? How boring!")

Sometimes it does not need a rational answer to the question. Since you wear the fragrance simply in 2 months as often as other "favorite fragrances" in 2 years. Sometimes a fragrance simply finds you and takes you in Beschlag. You no longer ask yourself what you want to wear in the morning, you spray automatically. And cradle yourself in the fluffy bliss of your great fragrance love. Ok, from time to time I still go "foreign", but I always come back in the evening at the latest. ;-)

I am curious how long this great love lasts. One thing she deserves but in any case: its own review!!! So herewith Pin-Up is warmly recommended to all who like soft, feminine-cuddly, compatible and yet extraordinary fragrances - especially now in autumn. I think in any case, we will still have a lot of fun together.
