The chastity belt
I really do love this scent! APOM is the acronym for "A piece of me" and that really applies to me. It is just as the sales person said, it matches women with darker complexions better than Aqua Universalis, which suits blonds. It is as if this scent would melt right into my skin making me feel very comfortable and special. I had no clue what the notes have been and am quite surprised to read that there should only be three dominant notes as listed above. No way,that is not all. There is such a creaminess which must stem from white musk. That musk weakens the orangy flavour. Nothing citric, nothing soapy, nothing old-fashioned. That fragrance appears to my nose only soft, creamy, intimate, subtle but with depth. There is something interesting, something unexplicable in this scent which makes you addictive.
So far, so good, but......... the problem with Apom is, that women are easily fascinated by it wheras men do detest it. The first (male) comment I received on apom was that it would smell like strange American bubble-gum (bazooka?) and that it would be very strong. Other women told me that their men find Apom horrible too, even one called it a urinal cake...tsssss. Alright, I dont have the slightest idea of how a male brain is functioning but I do know that this perfume is an invisible chastity belt. No man would ever hit on a woman wearing APOM I believe :-) So that goes out to all those jealous husbands around the world: here you have your next Valentine's gift. To all the strict and preoccupied daddies: Give Apom to your daughter when you think it is getting serious with the boys :-)
But still I am wondering what that bubble-gum touch could be that was detected on me by a male. And it is true, there are hints, tiny, little hints that it reminds me of rootbeer and the bubble-gum flavour winterfresh. Although I neither do like rootbeer nor winterfresh (I hate it actually), I love APOM. Now, is that contradictory or inconsistent? Yep, it is and that is how a female brain is working- doesn't alwas make sense, but one is for sure, APOM makes sense to us. Cheers sisters! :-)
