Night Flight At Schalke
Four years I had to wait for my season ticket. The waiting list was long. And then, finally. Happy and excited I started at about 12 o'clock. Time enough to have a look at everything first. I've been standing in front of the arena so many times, without a chance to get inside. Against the " old " Parkstadion, although very loved, the pure luxury.
No more pulling a garbage bag over your head when it rains. No more running track and lots of beer and food stalls. And- clean restrooms. The arena stands very high and from the Arenaring of the Oberrang a view over half the Ruhr area. Dreamlike beautiful.
Then purely in the block, first with all squires around make known. Someone smelled good here. From time to time what blew over there. Club song sing, then it went off. Unobtrusively I sniffed off my neighbors, huh. Here we go 33. Min. Goal, 0:1 for Kaiserslautern. Shit. Then, 79 min Larsen TOR 1:1, relief and joy. We all lay in each other's arms, there it was again, huh. And then, 83 min TOR Kristajic 2:1 Schalke. We hugged, danced and cheered. Again a great breath came over to me. Behind me the Schalker Jung was it.
Final whistle. Won. When most were already gone, I sat still a bit there and looked over in the Nordkurve, where the fans still celebrated with the team.
Behind me a voice," Kommse gez öfta? " I could smell it again." Kla, hap ne Dauerkate ergattat". "We chatted for a few minutes, then we walked together to the train." "No, in Wanne Eickel." Me too, then we could get together next time." "Sure, but only if you put on that nice smell." "Do you like it?" "Very much. What's it called? "Very, what's it called?" Nightflight. "But don't forget! "
14 days later, behind me it smelled great again. 1-1 against BMG. Schalke was fourth at the end of the season. The first was done.

Nightflight is a great fragrance. Too bad that he was discontinued. Slightly fresh and fruity, pineapple and lemon, great combo. Lavender and juniper, floral spicy.The base subtly woody and ambery, with the top note never quite disappearing. I was impressed by this. Fragrance and carrier. A great stadium fragrance.

Back to the year 1996
It was 1996 and Pollita was in the final stages of her baccalaureate. After her A-levels she wanted to start her studies. She had only recently ended a strenuous relationship that had lasted over two years and was now at the tender age of 19 ready for a new phase in her life. That's when she met him. She had known him for a while, but it was only then that they got to know each other better. He was already 30 and the young chick was warned by everyone in her family and circle of acquaintances that he was too old and that this could not go well. She still has the words of her grandmother in her head: "If you're not married or have a boyfriend by the time you're 30, there's something wrong with them," she told her granddaughter over and over again. Spending time with him just meant fun, happiness, joy. No barriers like before. With him she discovered her joy in football and even today both still cheer on the same team with enthusiasm. Whether in the club, in the football stadium on the fairground - this time with him was characterized by unbelievable much joy and detachment. That's exactly why she fell in love with him. He worked as a DJ in a bar and played her favorite songs, lots of new wave and synth pop, which she loved so much. She was wearing JPG Classique. He Joop Nightflight. Together they often lay under the starry sky and waited together until the sun rose in the morning.

It didn't last more than a year. Family and friends should be right. But they still have contact today and get along very well. Pollita has been happily married for many years. He's still a bachelor. How clever grandma was back then :)

A little anecdote from my life...

I still associate this fragrance with him today and with this wonderful part of my life that I would never want to miss. Too bad he disappeared from the market like so many other beautiful fragrances. Fragrances magically bring all the images and emotions from the past back to life. Maybe that's why I love scents so much?

I don't understand why Nightflight was crushed
Admittedly, I don't understand why Coty had to pulverize Joop! nightflight while Jump!, Go! and whatever their names are still have a right to exist It may be that for some, after the reformulation, he was no longer the biting and room-filling panty-dropper that he was in the 1990s. Nevertheless, even the reformulated version had its raison d'être.

To this day there is no fragrance in my collection that I have been asked about as often as Nightflight. While many of the fragrances in my collection have received comments like "You smell good!", Nightflight is different. There was always direct interest in what a great fragrance it was and where you could buy it. Sorry guys, it doesn't exist anymore.

Had I known that it would be smashed, I would have easily stocked up on 5 to 10 bottles. So I only have two 125ml bottles and one (still from Lancaster) 75ml bottle left, which I guard like the apple of my eye (Are there Dupe alternatives?). And if you look at the high prices on Ebay and Co. for Joop! nightflight, you will see that it has the potential to become a missing classic like Davidoff Relax.

While his older pink brother still exists and enjoys advertising campaigns par excellence to this day, Joop! nightflight had to make ends meet and survive in the shadows until his appointment. I dare to bet that if Coty had raised Nightflight as well as Joop! Homme, many more men would have bought him and Nightflight would have survived.

Now there is simply no fragrance substitute for me that comes close to Joop! I don't want to have anything similar, but rather my blue flanks stamped with stars. A pity

My first
It was 1997 and I just returned from a two-week camping holiday in St- Cyprien, France, at the age of 18, and I had never been so tanned in my life. I looked like a blond Spaniard. It was the first day after my return and I strolled with my then 14-year-old sister through the pedestrian zone of my southwest German hometown.
My sister actually wanted to buy herself a perfume in the drugstore Müller and I intended to rummage through the CD department, which was very well sorted for the time But why I turned into the men's perfume aisle is something I cannot say today. Until now, I never needed to own my own perfume. Why would you do that? I was always allowed to make extensive use of Papas Fahrenheit, 1881, and Derringer.
When I sprayed the bottle of Nightflight after an unsystematic sniffing, I was spellbound by the smell of freshness and summer, it somehow continued my Mediterranean holiday in my mind, although I was standing in a non-air conditioned drugstore in the middle of a middle ugly provincial town.

In order to spend the remaining weeks of the summer holidays (then there were still 13 school years), with a feeling of vacation, freshness and a bit of coolness, I had to have this scent! And even more so in the evenings in the equally unklimatisierten, summerly embroidered discos, long before the smoking ban, I would be the most smelly boy/man...I formed myself at least a ;-)

That was in 1997. 22 years later, living for 12 years in a metropolis in northern Germany and only on a few visits to the "provincial town" each year, I recently discovered a broken Nightflight bottle in a kind of cosmetic shoe box for my wife. Of course it is no longer the original one from 1997, but if you spray it into the air, you won't notice a big difference to the scent of that time.... but every single impression I felt when I discovered the scent comes back up. It's a wet and cold winter. The last camping holiday was 19 years ago, smoky discos and visits there are a thing of the past, but a sniff at the bottle and the time travel starts.

I haven't sprayed the scent on myself since eternal times - I had even forgotten that I own it and I was very happy when I found it again. But I haven't really sprayed it on since and I probably won't. Too much it is interwoven with the old times, there it belongs for me and there it will always stay for me.

For me he had his time (with me) and he was fantastic. But (fragrant) life has progressed and made room for new discoveries and memories.

After 26 years the night flight is over - destination airport reached ?
Another fragrance that is now finally part of the history of fragrance. He's landed. The operating time is over after 26 years and a number of routine maintenance procedures. The gates of the Flight Museum have opened. The lights on the night runway have finally lit up.

I've always skilfully ignored him as a non-fresh-smell fan. He was standing in the department store chains, I ignored him, ignored him. Yes, once I tested him and immediately forgot. Too inconspicuous despite the beautiful blue bottle. Especially because it was cheap and mass-produced. Also did not match my baggage scheme.

So now he is hired and my interest as a non-Fresh-Aquatiker but Vintage Jäger was aroused with a short delay. 433 users own it, so it does have its followers and popularity.

It is not fresh citric but aromatic flowery, fresh sweet. Lavender and pineapple with other flowers and tonka bean play the leading roles. Not a bad smell, but also not the Concorde, the high flyer among the fragrances.

I've built up a bunker supply.
Prices will certainly continue to rise in the foreseeable future.

I wish him not to be forgotten.

Man oh man what an awesome fresh fougere! Similar to Chopard Heaven but a bit more on the green side instead of fresh fruity. Must have!

Smells like a high quality synthetic detergent. Has some kind of cooling effect, works good in warm weather, gorgeous bottle.

Excruciatingly bittersweet, a bomb of creamy lavender, bitterly almond, and roasted tonka. Pineapple overdosed right before Aventus happened
