Eau de Bau
"If you sweat when you eat and freeze when you work, you've definitely studied ."
"Foam and silicone replace precision here."
Such, or similar, are the sayings on the construction site. The tone is usually rough but cordial and humor is the mortar that holds the chaos together.
As a woman in construction, you can't come across as chickenshit if you want to be taken seriously. Red lipstick and fine threads is like showing your throat.
I always look like Lord Helmet or Bob the Builder with breasts, that's fine.
Only smell I do of course still good, what the guys there not at all notice, because I avoid Silagemonster anyway. Until the day, as I ' Jil Sander 4 ' testete.
In the forum, the Schalkerin had advised me to test him again sparingly, after I had already sorted him out as "too violent".
Okay, sprayed in the air, traipsed through, helmet on and off.
In that homeopathic dose, I didn't even notice him until I got to the site.... " Dude, Mrs. Friesin, they smell but today legga! "Even the Plaudertaschen, which otherwise only'n "Moin" bring out were suddenly on the air and it was jauntily swaggered about perfume, funny.
The week after I was allowed to write 'Jil Sander 4' on slips of paper, because various 'pearls' dufte should be gifted.
In the office, everyone laughs at my 'Eau de Bau' in the desk drawer, but I don't care.
The scent hangs in the construction trailer and my changes are no longer 'forgotten', ha!

'Jil Sander 4' is opulent and feminine.
A classic floral with warming
Spice.
The silage is the hammer and after (economical)
Dosage the fragrance is suitable for women of all ages.
A great development the fragrance actually does not go through, he is from beginning to end
present in its oriental florality.
A reasonably priced classic, with which you can not hide.
For me a pure work fragrance, others say office suitable, this one is buildable.

Achso,by the way " This is not leaking, this is residual moisture."

From grandma to mama to me on the shelf
I smelled this scent on my grandmother for the first time.
I still remember exactly where the bottle was standing in her bathroom, on the shelf above the toilet. But nowadays I almost believe that it was the right perfume for her at that time, because the bottle was super small and we had to be very careful with it and not to take it down!

Because of this necessary caution, No 4 and I had a very special relationship from an early age. Because for me, I have always associated something expensive, noble and special with the fragrance.
So again a very noble smell.

When I got older, I lost sight of it, subconsciously I always thought that it would certainly cost far more than 100 € and thus be out of reach for me anyway.

Then a few years ago, my mother got the eau de parfum from my father for Christmas. She had never used it before and for me, that moment when she unwrapped it was magical, because I thought that this 100ml bottle must be prohibitively expensive, as great as the fragrance is and as careful as we should be as children with grandma's perfume.

When he was standing in my mother's bathroom, I couldn't get around it, however, whenever I got ready to apply a few splashes of No 4. And every time I felt incredibly good.

So now I just had to get it
At that time I wasn't very much into fragrances, but I knew Chanel's No 5 very well and liked it very much myself, as well as Elie Saab Intense, which I wore myself and which reminds me of No 5.

Then and now I must say that as soon as I apply No 4, I have to think directly of an elegant, bright, quick-witted, seductive, intelligent woman.
The scent is of course incredibly heavy and oriental, but it has something that I miss, for example, in Chanels No 5. Something alive.

If Chanels No 5 represents the unattainable lady who drinks her martini in the corner of the casino in an elegant and sexy way and who would never get involved with anyone, Jil Sanders No 4 for me is the lady who is just as elegant and seductive, but who skilfully uses her charms to achieve what she wants, stands at the roulette table with the gentlemen and at the end of the day can also choose whom she wants to take along.
Jil Sander No 4 has initiative for me.

I know that with the descriptions one has only a very vague idea of the fragrance, but I very much hope that these associations can help one or the other.

PS. Although grandma and mom already wore this scent, I would never say that it has associations with a grandma scent for me

Femininity at its finest
One of my "everymen." Just like Giorgio Beverly Hills is a "time machine" fragrance. But here it becomes much more erotic. Jil Sander No 4 has a lot to offer. Apart from a mega-silage it surprises with spices but not in the herbaceous direction. No - here you get warm from sniffing. I think that the colour is a perfect match for the fragrance. Golden, almost amber The younger generation should also give the ingenious attractant a chance. Not everything the "old aunts" wear is oldschool. I constantly get positive feedback from my much younger colleagues at work. As already written in the title line, No.4 is pure femininity and absolute joy of life.

Perfect
I have to say honestly, this is the perfect fragrance for ladies. It always stays in your mind and a lady who wears it attracts attention to herself! And that's exactly what happened to me at work. A colleague walked past me and this elegant scent rose to my nose. I just had to ask her what fragrance it was. The has a durability, which is the bright madness!

Dark weather and daydreams
You can't rely on the weather forecast.
Puhhh ,dark ,cold and wet , instead of bright sunshine , as indicated!
My cat lady joins me, also seeking warmth, she pushes me almost from the
Heating pad , which is this annoying
Sciatica pain.
My mood is on the ground and the grip
in my perfume drawer should supportive
Therapy.
Oh, my beloved JIL!
One of my first perfumes that not only after
Patchouli smelled... but a wonderful bouquet of
Aromas offers.
Well, the '70s...
I spray up and a wonderful experience surrounds me...
Welcome to our flower shop, our gardening shop Glänz..und Tiegel.
Wow,decorated glittering floating glass tables.
A sea of various flowers on you
The fragrance is a fairy tale..tender and bloomy.
Spicy and fancy flashing ingredients
Small elves are in the process of binding wreaths... even with the prettiest flowers in blonde curly hair..
The fragrance is fresh and sweet to vanilla...these are very young elfs...who garland these flowers in winds..
White jasmine and blue violets. .. Carnations, and the most wonderful fragrant roses...
At the next table the somewhat more mature elves, the woods and selected spices distribute and also spice bunches with the finest aromas
Weaving into the floating scent works... also fruits, which jump in the Ringelrein into this work of art, peach and plums ... Spices anise and tarragon
and then by magic...
suitable smell / taste refiners follow like the vain Tonka and the somewhat rough cedar.
Everything finds its place, is arranged back and forth
And the little elves with their cute little curls
Jumping happily along.. stupfen themselves and float through the smell animated laughing also mischief.
Hach, I'm trying to catch one, soool sweet and
these oh so soft little curls...
Ouch... ouch
Bite little elves?
Ohhh man .. my Selene looks at me indignantly, sits on my belly and was probably wrongly verwuschelt by me as an elf ...
I apologized for her. I got her in
Lunch nap probably disturbed .. grins
I trace the beautiful dream...
And judging by the purring of Selene,
She's not angry with me anymore!

My dream magic scent has worked wonders,
my back is also better due to the relaxation.
