Glass church on the meadows

Bold but fresh,
dusky but summery,
smoky but herbal.

I met this wonder at the legendary Nose boutique in Paris. I had never encountered Miller et Bertaux fragrances before, but Study #23 took my breath away and insisted on coming with me.

I was very fascinated by incense scents at that moment and it is definitely one of the most remarkable specimens in this field. But I soon realized that to wear a bomb with such persistence, I should only go to outdoor events :)

The incense opens with fennel - what a powerful presence! Aldehydic freshness and immortelle honeyed herbalism take thoughts to a church with transparent walls in the middle of a meadow. A strong hippie vibe, tree huggers in colorful clothes and incense stuck in their hair dancing in this meadow.

But the woody base and patchouli tickle the nose and keep your feet on the ground.

This is not an easy scent, contradictory in its strength. I was planning to give up on him, but now that I'm writing this review, I've fallen in love with him again :) A strong artistic and bold stance.

Please take me with you again to this glass church in a meadow with flowers!

Wondrous floral

When I had Study 23 some time ago times as a sample said to me the fragrance, but somehow wanted so right no enthusiasm arise.

Now we were on vacation in the perfumery Babassu in The Hague at the cash register because I wanted to pay my second fragrance purchase on the day, when my husband called me with the words "Wait again please" to him.

He stood before me with shining eyes, held me the back of the hand under the nose with the question: "Do you find the also as great as me"?
I had no choice but to answer the question with yes.

When I took the bottle then in the hand I thought, I had already tested?!

I wondered then but about my evaluation, because Study 23 has actually everything I like in the program. In addition, the fragrance smelled somehow better than the day I tested the at home.

Bought we have then thus two fragrances.

But now to the fragrance!

The main role plays here clearly a rather bright and for my sensation slightly soapy incense note. The aldehydes indicated in the pyramid make sense and they come to bear clearly at the beginning. The fennel is only subtly to be guessed and he contributes, if at all, a discreetly bitter nuance, which gives the whole a slight edge.

The top note lasts quite a long time before the accompanying notes of incense begin to change.
I don't really perceive smoked wood and immortelle. However, the fragrance gets not only for me a difficult to determine floral coloration.
At first I thought I was imagining it, but my colleague, who actually doesn't like incense that much, asked me about the scent and said she thought the floral note in it was great.

Then in the base, the woody notes take over from the wondrous floral note. Now the incense smells subtly woody and soft.

The durability is good on my skin. The fragrance lasts a whole working day through. The sillage is thereby pleasant, if I may believe the statement of my colleague.

Sometimes it makes sense to give a fragrance a second test chance.
