Is a lilac purple?
Hello fragrance maniacs, welcome to my latest fragrance commentary. Today it's about Lillà Lillà by L'Erbolario, a brand that is not soo expensive and has so some quite nice fragrances in the assortment and thus always worth a look.
Soo, yes my title. Is a lilac purple? Yes, I was almost sure of that, but had to look it up due to my pathetically poor flower knowledge. And with that, I had to see what lilacs even look like again... if I hadn't known that what I was seeing in the pictures were just lilacs, I would have outright said lavender to it... God I really am so bad at flowers. Spring is coming soon, maybe I should go out with a nature book and try to identify flowers... I mean, we still have the miserable Corona crisis and there are just less opportunities to do things, so why not expand your flower knowledge, that would be THE opportunity? ... pah... let's see if I do it at all... he he... probably not, as usual, so I'll stay stupid forever *sigh* :D
But well, let's get to the scent!
Only a little later, the fragrance becomes warmer and sweet-spicy. One smells jasmine, lilac (and more flowers) and now also tonka, the fruity fragrance notes are now weaker.
To the base, vanilla is added, which makes the fragrance more powdery and sweet. The spicy disappears again towards the end, but it smells in the background again a little more fruity. At the end, the fragrance is delicately floral-sweet. The vanilla-amber mix in the later base also smells very nice. A really great fragrance!
I'm sorry that I can't really identify the other floral scents that emanate, especially in the background behind the lilac here, because as I said, I'm a total sucker for florals. If I were ever on a date, I could probably only ask for roses in a flower shop because I couldn't think of any other flower... hmm... what else is there? Thistle maybe??? :D
Well, that's about it again. Hope you are all well and have a nice evening, see you :)

The scent:
Lilla Lilla starts with floral notes, which I first guess are lilacs. Because they have a slightly sweetish and slightly dry scent, which comes across to me just from fragrances with lilacs familiar and where I hope I'm not wrong. In addition, there are fruity scents like peach, and I would have even guessed plum. Only a little later, the fragrance becomes warmer and sweet-spicy. One smells jasmine, lilac (and more flowers) and now also tonka, the fruity fragrance notes are now weaker.
To the base, vanilla is added, which makes the fragrance more powdery and sweet. The spicy disappears again towards the end, but it smells in the background again a little more fruity. At the end, the fragrance is delicately floral-sweet. The vanilla-amber mix in the later base also smells very nice. A really great fragrance!
The sillage and the durability:
The sillage is okay, not so strong, but also not very weak. So is a while smellable from close range. The durability I found also not bad, so eight hours he was already good on the skin smellable. The flacon:
The bottle is wine-red and cylindrical. On it stands in golden letters the name and the brand of the fragrance. In addition, there is a gold-bronze, but matte and cylindrical lid. Is all very simple, but looks good. Conclusion:
So, the fragrance turned out quite nice. It's nice, not overbearing and although it might seem a little opulent (at the beginning), I would describe it as an all-rounder that is wearable not only on cooler days, but especially quite well in spring. What I also liked is that it is not simply floral like many other fragrances smells, but also comes across a little "different", especially in the beginning, a little spicy just. This brings some variety, even if the fragrance itself seems a bit simpler again. In any case, however, it is one of the worth trying fragrances of L'Erbolario and could be used both daily and for going out. I'm sorry that I can't really identify the other floral scents that emanate, especially in the background behind the lilac here, because as I said, I'm a total sucker for florals. If I were ever on a date, I could probably only ask for roses in a flower shop because I couldn't think of any other flower... hmm... what else is there? Thistle maybe??? :D
