The "play it safe" smell
The first thing you can perceive is a fine and not too strong sweetish fruity note, which brings a fine juniper berry-like trait and I tip to the use of gooseberry.
At the same time, the gooseberry I suspect is accompanied by another fruity sweetish nuance, which reminds me of a still somewhat unripe peach, but I'm not quite sure, because my brain is always saying "Peach! - No - tangerine! roars!" :-)
These two notes are enveloped by a clear citric, but not sour, subtly herbaceous note, which comes from bergamot in combination with lemon.
At the same time, a certain, almost ethereal, light woodsy, discreet wooden nuance plays out its charm, which ensures that the top note radiates a small hint of sauna infusion and I suspect here the use of cypress and pine wood.
A little later the fragrance has become a little softer without losing its fresh appearance.
Finely sweet, but at the same time Mediterranean herbaceous nuances of lavender combine with a beautiful fresh aromatic, slightly sweetish herbaceous note of rosemary and are transformed from a delicate sweet floral note of rose geranium into a pleasant so-called "evergreen" with which you can never go wrong, in other words: this is the "Ick geh' ma' lieber uff Nummer - Sicher Duft!
Very delicate, almost fragile and on my skin almost only in direct proximity to the skin, a very beautiful iris plays its powdery aspects to complement the skin.
"And I rather expected "almost nothing at all" from such a nearly 7€ fragrance, but nothing at all, really! :-)
In the last 3 hours, the light transparent wooden note, which is already perceptible in the heart note, has now completely built up and combines with a very fine earthy, very delicately sweet nuance and I suspected the use of Iso-E-Super and patchouli, but this is not Iso-Super, but according to the fragrance pyramid Ambroxan.
These two notes are accompanied by an even more fragile nuance of labdanum, which I was only able to identify with the help of coffee beans, but which gives a certain soft and caressing impression, I think.
The entire base is, and my nose thinks I'm already a little more confident, enclosed by the finest creamy wooden masculine and at the same time smart looking sandalwood and cedar wood and provides a nice smooth finish.
Unfortunately I could not perceive musk and tonka bean, but I can well imagine that these two fragrance components were used to complete the picture.
Altogether the fragrance lasts 7 hours on my skin.
The Sillage is conceived from the beginning of 3 hours to a very well perceptible half arm length, before it is reduced in leisurely steps until the fragrance is finished.
