'ello from the other side ...
Great, now I'd like a French version of 'Hello' ... that's what I get when my cerebellum turns Adèle into Adele before my first coffee. Certainly sounds great - can someone please cover it or commission it? But back to Fronkreisch. Adèle came to me as an addition to the wonderful Rose Shiso. What I've been able to test from the house so far has been very harmonious and pleasing, so I had high hopes that no Puderisi dust would leave me breathing.
Off to the fin with the lady and nanu, you know that one, don't you? After a few minutes of confusion and frantically trying to remember the scent, I came to two conclusions:
1) Adèle's iris in the green combination smells so much like lavender
2) at least on my skin I get a 1a fragrance twin to Bel Étage !
This is a surprise, but a very pleasant one. The base of the two fragrance pyramids differs minimally on paper and I set off to start the comparison test. Yes, okay, in a really direct comparison, Adèle is slightly greener, but the pseudo-lavender iris is dominant. Anyone hoping for a lot of tomato green à la Eau de Campagne or From the Garden will be disappointed.
There's no need to be afraid of the oak moss in the base, and it's by no means chypry (does that word even exist?).
It's "only" an eau fraiche, which is unfortunately very noticeable in terms of longevity - after an hour I had to stick my nose to my skin to find it again. Score one for the Cloon Keen, which easily lasts the whole day on me. I admit, I haven't quite understood the concept of such low-dose products at such a low price. I think it would be nice if my perfume at least survived the journey from home to the office and didn't just disappear into the early evening.
In contrast to Rose, which can only be purchased via the Marie Jeanne website, Adèle is easily available in German perfumeries. The fragrance is currently only available in 100ml and comes in the usual simple, heavy dark green glass bottle that sits comfortably in the hand. I find it unisex wearable, with a slight 60:40 prediction for the ladies.
