Very helpful Review
Enough of this now
Why are such experimental scents offered as perfumes? ", 28 Le Cherche Midi", Belle, you expressed it delicately: you "can't access it." Neither can I!
I only smell a disgusted corner where someone stands in an old leather jacket, just come in from the rain, it's warm outside, it stinks of cigarettes, cigarette-smoked leather, and spilled sticky soft drinks without any fruity aroma. And it gives me heartburn! Unfortunately, I can't give it a 0%, not even with a new operating system. Milk, jasmine, pear? They are not present. And that's a good thing.
Fleur de Sel? I am a fan of Fleur de Sel, from Murray River, Australia, pink; Salinas des Carmen, gray-pink Fuerte; Fleur de Sel Camarque, gray, Fleur de Sel de Guerande, depending on the place pink to gray, I have tried many. Tomato without 'Fleur de Sel' is almost impossible for me.
But I can't smell anything there, only taste. It is never as salty as rock salt, and the crystals are crisp, very fine to paper-thin. The feeling on the tongue and in the mouth as it melts is the delicious part. C'est tout!
Is the precious salt perhaps supposed to act as a catalyst?
No idea, and I won't worry about it any further.
There are other such cigarette smells from ELdO, for example. I don't need to have them all. Not this one either!
Addendum: When you layer this scent with "Domol Laundry Freshener" (cheap Febrèze), then 28 neutralizes to something slightly sour-sweet, almost floral. And you can wash it off easily.

Secretions is a dream compared to this one, as well as Skin on Skin by L'Artisan! I think I'm going to test something really "old-fashioned" soon. It might end up being better than all these "experiments"... ;)

If even more people rate it poorly, it'll end up in the flops even before Sécretions... ;)

And on top of that gunpowder - sounds "interesting" at first - like herring with Smarties.

There's a corner like that at my workplace too. Still, I'm curious to see what it's like, since I do like most of the ELdO's. :)
