Berlin, Berlin, we beam to Berlin
"Berlin by Joop is a legend. Not as big as the fragrance deserves, but it is a sorely missed legend. Nationally and internationally. Almost the ladies' equivalent of "Relax". And at the same time (despite great tuberose tableau) not even as "damig" as one might think.
"Berlin" is a powdery tuberose sunshine, which simply makes mood. And to which there are actually no alternatives to this day. A world city fragrance. Elegant, thick, a little dirty. Full of character, full of kick. That presses in the nose, that has mass and class. Too heavy for summer, surprisingly fluffy and un-sweaty for a tuberose nonetheless. Gourmand bass, a Brandenburg Gate of clove vanilla. A fragrance that speaks volumes and has tradition. Love Parade still without a shadow. 90s with thick ovaries. A boost from Berlin, a boom from the capital. It survives the time in the hearts of many people, to whom it came under the nose then as now. Impeccable. Legendary as said rather. Mushy fruit chypre with edge and warmth. The bosom of the homeland.
Flacon: simple Joop, but somehow iconic
Sillage: potent, but no Übertuberose
Durability: 10 hours - Made In Germany
Conclusion: perhaps the best, powderiest tuberose that ever disappeared from the mainstream market. An absolute waste!
