The Orangery in the Botanical Garden
The opening of Cassis en Feuille is without question a great cinema. When the tangy citrus note meets the tangy freshness of the currant, my olfactory receptors are already in turmoil. The tomato leaf adds sparkling green. I don't know if chlorophyll has an odour of its own, but I imagine it EXACTLY: Green, very green. Refreshing and slightly grassy-bitter. A little like the orangery in the botanical garden. Grandios!
The problem with a grandiose prelude is that it can rarely be maintained. I'm afraid that's the way it is here. What exactly bothers me in the aftermath, I can't quite grasp olfactory. It becomes a little more lovely and possibly more flowery, rosier. This is neither bad nor unpleasant. Nevertheless, it remains for me a clear decline to the prelude. The tingling's getting weaker. What is left behind then looks a little stale and colourless. Only a little later in the course of the fragrance does it become rounder and more harmonious again. The cedar flashes in this phase very beautifully transparent through. The base also reminds me of other Miller Harris perfumes. There seems to be a common basic DNA.
All in all, a very pleasant and successful fragrance, even if the tension from the prelude cannot be completely maintained. The durability was astonishingly solid, but rather very close. By the way, the start is clearly unisex. But when all is said and done, I'd rather place him on ladies. I personally miss a few corners and edges to want to wear it myself regularly.
