Hibiscus MahaJád Maison Crivelli 2021

Two years ago in late summer, I broke up with my boyfriend of many years. The break-up was hard, painful, but unavoidable. No alternative, as they say. The reasons are irrelevant here.
It was a terrible time for everyone involved. I was in a bad way and only got better very slowly. I wasn't used to living alone at all and had to reorient myself completely. Suddenly deciding everything on my own was just as difficult as reconnecting with old friendships. And then, to make matters worse, Christmas and the New Year were just around the corner. In the meantime, I had regained some control over my mental life and decided to attend a big New Year's Eve party all by myself, which takes place every year in our town's theater. Although I still didn't feel like celebrating, I put on my short dance dress, painted my lips red and set off with a little trepidation. I was pretty sure that I would be back home shortly after midnight. But I had paid, so I had to go. And what fragrance was I wearing? Exactly, Hibiscus Mahajad by Maison Crivelli, because for me it exudes exuberance and joie de vivre, which is exactly what I was missing at that moment...
What can I say - contrary to expectations, it turned out to be a great evening. I had a great time, danced until four in the morning and received lots of compliments. It may sound clichéd, but that New Year's Eve reawakened all my lost spirits. I suddenly felt strong and beautiful and had this wonderful scent in my nose, which is exactly that: strong and beautiful. Pure joie de vivre. It is certainly less suitable for many other occasions, I agree. Too flashy, too flowery, too intense, too whatever... But on this evening, it felt just right for me. Merging perfectly with my newly awakened courage to face life. Just like in the song "I will survive" by Gloria Gaynor.
I don't wear it very often, but every time I do, I'm reminded of that New Year's Eve, which was a kind of "rebirth" for me and showed me that it always goes on, even if you don't believe it at first.
Hibiscus Mahajad accompanied me in a wonderful way. He couldn't have done me a bigger favor..
