Gossip from yesterday... or the exception to the rule?
How many times have I already written that I give a wide berth to new editions of the fragrance favourites of my youth, because I don't want to have my memories ruined?
All talk of yesterday Well camouflaged in a completely new outfit, the new edition of Magic Noire has smuggled itself onto my wrist in our small town miller. Don't ask me how this could have happened to me, because the prayer wheel that is supposed to protect my favorites from times long gone and the memories in my brain connected with them is still rotating reliably Actually
And then this bitch sneaks onto my wrist and the tangy dark scent sneaks straight into my brain and I immediately see the old bottle in front of me (which I already hated at the time), in my parents' bathroom at times when I wasn't even a teenager. Pure time travel. I wasn't old enough for this fragrance, my mother didn't even have to tell me. Maybe that's what saves me the scent into today - I didn't wear it myself, unlike the scents that were "hip" when I was a real teenager like Opium and Poison and with which I had my own experiences separated from my parents' house.
Did I recognize him?
It feels more like a rich slap in the face - for forgetting that scent that even the name didn't truncate me...
I have earned this slap in the face, because Magie Noire proves to me at least that there are new editions that manage to recall images and feelings in my brain that I no longer have in my conscious memory.
That was almost a year ago. After the hot summer 2019 it was the end of September so far that I took a sprayed strip home with me where it disappeared in the nirvana between sofa and wall and scented the living room for 2 days before we did some major cleaning and fished it out in the usual "black hole" between felt thousands of cat toys. He was then allowed to continue to smell elsewhere, and indeed, 13 days after spraying (!!!!) I still noted that the strip still smells fantastic.
In my own notes I still tell myself at that time that there are modern, new fragrances and I shouldn't stop there, especially since I really had a lot of exclusive fragrances to test at that time. But I started to doubt, especially since many "exclusive" fragrances really disappointed me and I hadn't found this dark-bitter edge yet.
The next skin test was inevitable. And again, Magic Noire completely picked me up. Now no longer as a memory scent, but rather as an oriental with edge and that little bit of animalism that makes a scent really erotic. What all the specimens and bottlings I had tested in the meantime in this direction could not fulfill - but maybe I was on the wrong track in my search?
Now is the time. A 10ml filling arrived and I can hardly keep my hands off it, although the filling was more of a "surcharge"
In order to turn this purely emotional personal description of the situation into a reasonably decent comment, I would like to say:
Yes, this is a "Wummser" old school with high complexity, maybe even a typical example of an oriental chypre (this is rather for chypre fans to judge), the animalics are soft but charming, everything very well balanced.
Durability is great, I can't judge Sillage.
Also for the current version I recommend a low dosage - could still spray a ticking too much eroticism at the workplace.
Conclusion: Great fragrance, also in the new edition. Please dispense discreetly - otherwise it will be weird or cheap.
