Berlin turns nice people into crazy junkies

Almost a year and a half ago, an acquaintance recommended a perfume to me that he liked very much. Somehow I got curious, so I left
Berlin Ku'damm, Karstadt
"Excuse me, I can't find that perfume, do you have it?"
"Hmm, ne I don't know, maybe ask Douglas."

Berlin Ku'damm, Douglas, 10min later
"Excuse me, I can't find that perfume, do you have it?"
"Hmm, ne that I have never seen before, maybe ask in the KaDeWe."

Berlin Ku'damm, KaDeWe, 15min later
"Excuse me, I can't find that perfume, do you happen to have it?"
"Hmm, Kurkdjian... please follow me."

And from then on, a whole new world opened up in my life. I was limited to Douglas at that time and had no idea that there were still so many different perfumes out there.

So I follow the guy through the KaDeWe, I feel really strange, into a small corner under the escalator (at that time MFK did not have its own stand there). Show the photo again to a lady there, who sprays it on a test strip and gives it to me (I didn't know until then that perfumes can be so exclusive that you don't have to do it yourself).
"Ah, good Amyris. It's this scent here."

Okay, enough has been said here about the fragrance, for me it was fresh-sweetish, smelled good, somehow also familiar. For me today, it's floral-powdery with a hint of creaminess. Of course nothing exciting, but my darling in spring and very suitable for everyday use.

Nevertheless, I wanted to share with you my experience with this fragrance, my entry into the niche, from complete ignorance to the beginning of a long journey that became a real passion. It started with Amyris homme.

At that time it was a shock to see that a perfume can actually cost 130€. But since it was still clearly visible on the test strip after a week, I thought I'd get it for Christmas, that's something special And that was a good decision, because what followed was completely new and incredibly interesting for me.

"Excuse me, are you looking for something in particular?"
"Thanks, I was just trying out some new ones here, but I already found them."
