The Snickers Shelf at the Checkout

Like many others, I came to Parfumo to get new ideas and inspirations from the world of fragrances. However, it doesn't always require this forum. Sometimes, a knowledgeable, well-run niche perfumery can help discover new brands or scents.
In this case, I stumbled upon a small stand with 30 ml bottles of L‘Essence des Notes at la Schiller in Oldenburg by the checkout. The equivalent of the Snickers shelf at the supermarket checkout, no question about it. And it had the same effect on me, as I immediately bought the wonderfully green citrusy Pampelmousse et Basilic. After I had also purchased and gifted two other scents from this line, I recently got Cardamome er Enbruns.
And once again, I am very satisfied. Like all the fragrances in this line, you get a simple, light, yet special scent in terms of quality that delivers exactly what it promises. A green, somewhat dry spice note is mixed with salty aquatic notes, amber, and musk, rounding it off with a slightly floral base. This is truly excellently constructed, and much more complex than one might initially expect.
However, one cannot expect much in terms of longevity and sillage. Reapplying is a must, but at €39 for 30 ML, it is quite justifiable.
For those who do not have access to the fragrances of L’Essence des Notes, I recommend ordering a discovery set. This house has a lot to offer and is worth discovering. And who can really resist a Snickers in between?
