Let me be your lemon tart
So, I actually just made a pilgrimage to the central drugstore in Munich to finally spend my voucher and treat myself to the "Via del Corso, Roma" from Bottega del Profumo, as I couldn't get it out of my head since testing it a few weeks ago.
And as it often goes in perfumeries, my gaze wandered over the selection and landed on the fragrances from Officine del Profumo.
Oh, "Zaahra," I've been wanting to test that for a while, especially since the description mentions something about powdery (just right for a powder fragrance junkie like me), and the statements sounded good too. So, let's put it on the skin. Hmm, my first impression: lemon tart to spray! I don't really like to eat it, but as a scent, not bad at all.
I can't quite perceive the sweet lemon, mandarin, and bergamot; they remain present in combination with the vanilla; for me, even a tad too present, as the lemon is quite overpowering.
Vanilla, almond, and tonka bean really have to work hard to keep up with the lemon, but they manage to do so better as the fragrance develops. Then it becomes wonderfully airy-light-creamy-powdery!
Conclusion: For me, there could have been a bit less lemon!
Second conclusion: I simply had to take both fragrances home, as I couldn't decide - as so often ;-) - !
What made the decision much easier for me: the Officine del Profumo fragrances are available in 30 ml, 50 ml, or 100 ml bottles. They also look good, with elegant packaging in a pretty box.
