Scent

Also (even) for pacifists!

Recently, a scent mail with the sender "Angellise" fluttered into my mailbox. Besides my wish sample'Nirwana' gabĀ“s another encore, which I didn't pay any attention to at first -'Veteran', what a silly name for a perfume!
I don't like the military - I don't like marching in line. Rather, I want to go through life as my own commander (Who doesn't want that?). I would like to be able to say NO without the consequence of "superiority". There have been enough debates in my life, but that doesn't belong here.
I'll just let the veteran speak. Let's see what he has to say.

Right in the first seconds after spraying on I notice that this veteran is no louder. So there is no (ex)skewer to drill his subordinates to obedience. After a few minutes I feel a light cool water note, or a green Irish tweed note with this "sea-price DNA", which remains in the background for the entire course.
And while I'm still wondering if he might have served in the Navy, I notice that the name'Veteran' goes perfectly with this fragrance. And there's another thing that strikes me: This'veteran' has shaken my stereotype thinking.
He's not cool, he's calm. He stands above things without the slightest arrogance. Who now believes he is boring or meaningless is enormously wrong. He's still able to run a company! With diplomacy, idealism, serenity and humanity he deserves recognition and respect!

Satisfied I sit down in the living room and make myself comfortable. My wife wonders what I sprayed myself with. In terms of taste, we rarely reach a common denominator with fragrances. But this also impressed her. Hmmm delicious, she says - there's sandalwood in there. Okay?! ... i hadn't noticed yet. I hadn't read anything about the scent yet.
Cypress, lemon and a lot of alcohol gave it to the greeting that was certain. Then there was the "sea prisene-DNA" and then there was lavender. Finally, we had vanilla (which bothers me a little, because it's sweet), some tobacco and amber. Now I was curious to see what is written in the perfume dictionary and whether my nose passed the test.

Well, at least, apart from tobacco, all self-sniffed ingredients (+ my wife's sandalwood) were present. The sea prisene-DNA, which only flares up in the background, is an (individual?) perception about whose ingredients I know nothing.
But I'm surprised I didn't notice the bitter orange and the good portion of pepper. After reading them, they were clearly in my nose.

All in all, Veteran is a respectable, serious and mature character head. And I had the honour (thanks to Angelliese!) to write the first comment.

At ease! ;-)
