Lady Vengeance Juliette Has A Gun 2006

So far, none of Juliette Has A Gun's scents have been able to really convince me. They are well made, but something has always bothered me after a while. I found them always "too"...too synthetic, too raspy, too sweet, too wasauchimmer.

Now the bottle of "Lady Vengeance" is in my hand. They are beautiful, the bottles. And hand-flattering, it is really good in the hand, is raven black, round, heavy. Makes curious about the content.

First surprised me the first spray, because I expect a full, plump Rosenbouqet, with really a lot of Wumms and Trara. But the fragrance is much fresher, more delicate, than I had expected him. This freshness is also quite persistent and makes a really good mood. I really like that.

Gradually, woody, spicy notes can be smelled and later patchouli and vanilla still join. With this, the fragrance can of course score with me, because I love patchouli and vanilla. Together with the fresh rose note, this is a really well done mixture, while it remains harmonious, nothing pushes itself into the foreground. Something soapy it becomes in the course.

The fragrance name "Lady Vengeance" associates for me things that have nothing to do with the fragrance, but that is often so. "Lady Vengeance" is harmless, almost peaceful. And although quite lovely, I still have to think whether I dare to wear the fragrance in summer. The reason is the scent progression and the cloud of fragrance that accompanies one even when dosed carefully. Lady Vengeance is not a fragrance that you have to yourself, it is not quiet, but quite intense.

I read that Lady Vengeance is a modern rose chypre. Well, I don't know...it's actually too sweet for that and also a bit too synthetic for my liking. But as a conclusion, I think "Lady Vengeance" is a successful fragrance. It's well balanced, interesting and long lasting. So far my favorite of Juliette Has A Gun.
