Trying makes wise
Since the British knickknack shop opened in the city, I find myself drawn back to this "Villa Kunterbunt" time and again.
There must be a little monkey and a horse somewhere there too.

Above all, there are cosmetics labels from Canada and the USA that I had never heard of before, but which appeal to me.

I pick lipsticks in the most daring colors from the bargain tables, suppressing claustrophobic feelings, as the customer traffic is enormous.

The perfumery department is just as colorful, where unfamiliar scents smile at me.
There are no testers.

I am drawn to a little purple box with the image of a woman's profile, which I categorize into the 60s.

My husband can't help but remark: Purple - the last attempt?
Trying makes wise - I reply calmly and take my trophy to the checkout.
Love Elixir - music to my romantic ears.

In the car, I release the spirit from the bottle, and it envelops me partly romantically, partly classically old school.
The peony, combined with the rose, has a charmingly nostalgic effect, and this connection exudes poetry.
Frankincense whispers mysteries, and sweetly powdery patchouli and soft woods join in.

This must have been how it was in the swinging sixties - as the portrait on the little box suggested.

The local radio plays: Those were the days my friend - by Mary Hopkins, which I find very fitting.

At home, I discover with surprise that this alluring love elixir was created only a few years ago.

For me, it is a perfect retro scent - skillfully out of time, right into my hands.

Oriental Rose Patchouli
"Love Elixier" sounds quite erotic for a perfume name. However, the scent itself is not for me. The "Love" personally stands for "lovable" to me, while the "Elixier" represents a kind of balm. So I cheekily and freely translate the name as "Lovable Balm."
The beautiful peony first transports me to far eastern realms, where entire fields bloom before the "Fudji Mountain."
Then a deep dark red rose emerges, fragrant with spicy-rosy notes, a hint of patchouli is already noticeable. Earthy and dark, velvety and grounding. The foundation on which everything finds its firm place. Woods, initially delicate like fine shavings, grow into freshly cut tree trunks.
It remains "exotic," but now the setting shifts from the Far East to the Orient, where a wonderfully warm, slightly "sacred" note of incense envelops everything.
It is the type of incense that does not symbolize "strict faith," reminiscent of the "swinging incense burners" used in churches, but rather the noble, warm, universal independent scent.
The harmony that this four-part composition radiates would remind one, if it were music, of Bach's chorales. Four different voices, together pure harmony.

The Black Rose
After I was quite taken with 'Eternal Gardenia' by Langé and then recently discovered this one, I couldn't really fight it; I had to get it right away. What’s gone is possibly gone for good. :)

Here, the liquid is a delicate purple, for whatever reason. No matter, I treated it just like its sister, so I generously sprayed it on my skin right away and had to sit down in astonishment. This was really dark and dusty dry! After half a minute, it became a bit lighter and revealed a deep, velvety, juicy dark red. Yeah, the flowers! I don't want to examine which flowers too closely; God can definitely do all flowers, especially roses, better than we humans. That aside, here it is, the almost black rose that I had searched for everywhere and found nowhere. (Alright, everywhere is an exaggeration; the world is big...) Frankincense with deep red flowers, isn't that something for you Goths too? And I also think of Morticia Addams with her pale skin; she must wear this perfume. It would suit men as well.

With good sillage, it also lasts excellently. I never expected such a wonderful and extraordinary scent, even though 'Gardenia' was already nice, just different. It might not be suitable enough for the office. And yes, it’s also not quite right for the really warm summer days.

Rosy peonies with a slightly sour fruity note give a rather synthetic impression. I don't smell any incense here. Youthful mainstream.

For me, it's a retro scent. Pretty housewives of the 60s drinking tea on the terrace. Summer suit in pastel colors + well-kept garden.

Hints of Coco Mademoiselle, synthetic mix, very unoriginal, but wearable since it's in the pleasant mainstream. Name is very misleading.

Something different instead of the overly sweet floral scent..
It has a fresh and powdery vibe. I love it. Can’t wait for spring!

Abstract blackcurrant scent without the juiciness and sparkle of the berries. Linear.

Unfortunately too synthetic for me, I can't really smell the incense. H/S are good.

I like frankincense, but here I only smell a nauseating incense aroma, paired with an overpowering sweetness. Very synthetic.

Floral, bright, and sweet, later a slightly thin patchouli but mostly a lot of synthetic musk - it scratches the throat when sniffing.

Applied in warmth: Jil Sanders "Eve" + a hefty dose of resinous sweetness -- not my taste, but strong and long-lasting.
