The smell of the past
Rarely, indeed really very rarely, has a fragrance "picked up" and taken me as much as Pani Walewska - Classic. But I was completely unprepared. I had only been looking for a clean detergent scent - again. And somebody here had recommended this nice little blue bottle. Since it doesn't cost the earth, I had bought it blind in the bay.

The little bottle is one thing above all else - old-fashioned. This dark blue one with the golden tin lid - it doesn't look cheap, nor noble - it looks like a bottle from a long time ago.

Classic is a clean scent. Somehow it smells like a mixture of grandma's perfume, laundry washed with strong-smelling detergent and soap. This scent takes me back to childhood days. When I was often at my grandparents' house on weekends - my mother was working. My grandparents were still of the old breed - in the afternoons the "lunch hour" was still held. Of course I was there too. Grandma always had the bed freshly covered - with light-coloured sheets, washed with this much too strong detergent and dried in the fresh air. And when putting on the sheets they also took on a little bit of my granny's scent. And even if you weren't tired at all, this homely scent mixture made you pleasantly dimly tired...

I can't smell any notes for this fragrance. For me, it's just the fragrance of my past
Durability is about 3 h with strong Sillage - and up to 8 h very close.

Bouquet surpris from Warsaw
There it is, the little old-fashioned bottle, on the neck the tiny silhouette of a rococo lady, the splendour of curls high piled up, the décolleté lavishly rushing. I wonder what the perfume smells like The manufacturer promises rose, jasmine and lily of the valley - that sounds conventional, perhaps even old-fashioned or worse: boring. But far from it!

As expected, the fragrance opens with a floral note and a little powdery at the same time. Instead of lily of the valley, it clearly smells like hyacinth, fortunately not at all bulky-wummy. This fine fragrance blends pipe bush jasmine and some bitter lime. The rose creates only a soft, oily ground.

Soon a multitude of flowers will be added. Something dark sweet indicates tulip, freesia contributes something fresh green, and the nectar-like, unsweet with a bitter impact, smells like hawthorn, robinia and wisteria. Something powdery is also present, either iris or heliotrope, but without the almond note. It is a distinctive flower mixture, so it is not as usual as the sparse data would have us believe.

And it gets even more interesting. After half an hour, the powderiness passes and the flowers are complemented by herbaceous green notes, perhaps myrtle and galbanum. And there is something very special, perhaps a hint of elderflower? Jasmine comes to the fore and gives the fragrance a light soapiness.

After another half hour, astonishing delicate spicy tones emerge, possibly calamus and galangal with a dash of nasturtium, later perhaps some light vetiver and light patchouli. The perfume becomes more discreet and envelops for many hours with a wonderful green-floral aura, which is cool and warm at the same time.

Who would have thought! Of course Pani Waleska is not a modern fragrance, but it is not at least old-fashioned and certainly not boring: an extraordinary flower chypre with interesting development, on top of that at a reasonable price. Give me that Nothing easier than that: you don't even have to travel to Warsaw, three times W is enough.

Pani Walewska: The Polish Classic
I have a great respect for "Pani Walewska", since a Polish friend of mine gave me this perfume a few years ago for my birthday. Strong floral notes with carnation and jasmine supported by radiant aldehydes and vetyver merge into the characteristic smell immediately recognisable as the great "Madame Waleska". I guess there is some oakmoss in the base, which adds to the effect of a "powerhouse scent". I was a bit scared of "Pani Walewska" when I tried it for the first time, it detonated like a soapy flower-bomb, but after the initial shock and after several testings I found it surprisingly wearable. This is not a "nice" perfume, but a vivid green floral with great lasting power. Additional body-products, creams&lotions etc. all smell of "Pani Walewska"; the entire range is very affordable. "Idealny na kazda okazje".

Good old classic. Aldehydic floral chypre with white flowers, freesia and muguet. Soapy and clean. Cheap but good quality.
