Hmm... a cotton candy would do well now...! :D
Once again I am here... and I hope you will enjoy another comment. I should insult all those who are rolling their eyes again... but we have Christmas (or at least almost) and there I am a bit more peaceful, he he he.
Today I come to a carnival fragrance, which fits well to the festive mood, because you can smell such sweet scents at Christmas markets, too, even if it should be another kind of sweetness than cotton candy (e.g. more candied stuff), what you smell at the Christmas market then. No matter, market is market and both kinds are a lot of fun, whereby I prefer the Christmas markets (of course... :D)! :))
Soo... as already indicated I now come to a fair scent from the replica series of Maison Margiela. The replicas are perfumes designed to reproduce the scents of different moments and situations in life that are perceived during these moments. Therefore these fragrances usually carry names like Beach Walk, Lazy Sunday Morning or By the Fireplace. And this one is called Funfair Evening, where you have to remember that you are at a nice fair and have a lot of fun,... or get angry again, spend 100 Euro on tickets and only got an eraser with them :D
Only then, little by little, can I perceive some of the other fragrances. The first scent that emerges from the scent cloud is unfortunately a scent that you personally don't like so much: aniseed. I think anise always has a slightly pungent aroma that is simply not pleasant. Fortunately, it is not so strong here, but still it can be smelled for a while at the beginning. Then you can smell light neroli, which is much more pleasant and makes the fragrance a little heavier.
From the flowers you can smell the tuberoses more, because you can smell a more sweet scent. The musk also provides a further sweetness, which you can smell even better than the candyfloss sweetness or the tuberose. With the roses I have difficulties here, and no, this is exceptionally not because of my often alarmingly bad flower knowledge (because roses I can at least normally always recognize well! :D), but because they are simply weak or all the sweet smells overlay the roses.
Towards the base it still smells as usual, so the scent is sweet (now also caramel), powdery and soft, the anise is (fortunately) mostly gone and the sweet and powdery scents are now gradually coming more and more from the vanilla, which of course is again right at the end the main scent. A beautiful fragrance!
Also the shelf life has landed with about six or seven hours in the middle range, which I still find quite okay.
Hmm... the whole sugary-sweet (but beautiful, not sticky and crushing) scent reminded me of cotton candy all the time. I mean, of course, the scent is supposed to reflect a fair visit in a portable olfactory way, but I wouldn't have thought that's why the water would run into my mouth like that... cotton candy... boah, I don't even remember the last time I fed cotton candy! All I know is it was really delicious! D
And since we're at tasty: Yes, I think the scent must be very tasty for you ladies. And hey, I hadn't written anything like this in a long time, had I? Then I'm sure I can use the other word again: Biteable! Yes, the scent makes you biteable too... hmmm.... which is certainly so delicious :)))
Therefore, it is definitely a test value. Because it smells super and is for me above all a great smell to go out or an evening smell, which should always have a nice effect. I would actually use it more on cooler days in autumn or winter, but I think it goes well on warmer days as it is not so heavy. Yep, give him a test!
Well then, I wish you now a nice evening and see you soon :)

The fragrance:
Somehow I still can't perceive any of the scents listed in the top note here. Because first I smell a gigantic fragrance cloud full of cotton candy notes, which admittedly smell really tasty and sweet. Only then, little by little, can I perceive some of the other fragrances. The first scent that emerges from the scent cloud is unfortunately a scent that you personally don't like so much: aniseed. I think anise always has a slightly pungent aroma that is simply not pleasant. Fortunately, it is not so strong here, but still it can be smelled for a while at the beginning. Then you can smell light neroli, which is much more pleasant and makes the fragrance a little heavier.
From the flowers you can smell the tuberoses more, because you can smell a more sweet scent. The musk also provides a further sweetness, which you can smell even better than the candyfloss sweetness or the tuberose. With the roses I have difficulties here, and no, this is exceptionally not because of my often alarmingly bad flower knowledge (because roses I can at least normally always recognize well! :D), but because they are simply weak or all the sweet smells overlay the roses.

A beautiful fragrance!
The Sillage and the shelf life:
The Sillage is quite strong in the beginning because of the many sweet notes, but the scent is generally rather mediocre, perhaps a little stronger than mediocre. So you don't have to get quite so close, which is good, because you can still smell the scent reasonably good on one if it should run past you. But it's still not a firecracker. Also the shelf life has landed with about six or seven hours in the middle range, which I still find quite okay.
The bottle:
The bottle is cylindrical, clear and filled with light blue scented liquid. On the front there is a large label, which gives the impression that it has been typewritten. And in addition to names, there is also other information such as fragrance direction, bottling location or fragrance type. The neck has been wrapped by a rope or rope and looks somehow marine, and there is no lid. A simple but quite interesting bottle. Hmm... the whole sugary-sweet (but beautiful, not sticky and crushing) scent reminded me of cotton candy all the time. I mean, of course, the scent is supposed to reflect a fair visit in a portable olfactory way, but I wouldn't have thought that's why the water would run into my mouth like that... cotton candy... boah, I don't even remember the last time I fed cotton candy!
