autumn roasted chestnuts
roasted chestnuts in the mountains...certainly difficult to wear as a perfume, you have to like the kind of perfume - sweet - I like it very much because it reminds me of old memories of life lived.....ovviamente sono italiana...ho questo profumo da anni....scorte comprese...se cercate il dolcetto di castagna provate il marchio tuttotondo perche questo è diverso dai soliti dolcetti zuccherini....non ho piu voglia di usare il traduttore automatico scusate la sincerità.....da questo profumo non mi posso separare....

love in autumn in a bottle
the best chestnut...light animal smell but no stink...extremely original so not suitable for those who love classic designer perfumes (chanel gucci and others)...smoky earthy sweet...different....I love it..the most beautiful chestnut in the world.... here we are not talking about the usual chestnut/pastry sweet.... a slightly sweet and animalic chestnut but that animalic without the smell obviously...... certainly original and not banal..... you see few of them around so it is difficult to find in perfumeries but when buying online I recommend taking a sample together with the perfume to avoid problems with returns for those who are afraid to try online etc..... the perfume takes you back to the uncontaminated autumn nature between chestnut trees and earth with the smell of chestnut fruit and also the smell of roasted chestnuts.... it reminds me of the mountains of my hometown ...love..

My nose is broken!
My nose is broken...

...how else could I like this scent? The scent pyramid alone is more like a deterrent to me. I like incense only conditionally, raspberries I eat gladly, in the smell they disturb me mostly rather. I'm just getting a little cautious about leather and I can't stand Oud at all!

And when you then read the statements, you'd rather run away screaming than voluntarily let this scent touch your skin.

We're talking about snack stands, ham, bacon and even baby barf.

And what do I smell? For me it smells pleasantly sweet like creamy nut pudding! The single small raspberry lies only as decoration on top. Yeah, it actually smells a little burnt by the incense. But just that bridges the gap for me from dessert scent to portable perfume.

I'd wear it! I'd love to! Even if that means that I might have to spend this day alone... :-)

So if someone has some of this terrible broth left and wants to get rid of it, I would sacrifice myself! ;-)

Quite apart from the fact that the Secret of Love flacons are really my absolute favorite flacons!

There is something vile about this scent, like a medicine cabinet in a nursing home mixed with rotting fruits.

I really wanted to like this one, given the bottle is so nice. But it smells horrible, at least for my tastes. Woody, leathery, smoky, spicy
