I always find that fragrances with a milk accord appeal to me incredibly. The first one was
Trade Routes Collection - Paithani, which I saw in a Penhaligon's news paper that my friend had sent me from London. I read the notes and was curious to see how such a milk accord would develop. She told me the scent wasn't that special. At some point, though, I was back on site, testing my way through the local store... at home, I smelled a scent extremely out that I had sprayed on myself, but had no idea which one it might have been. We eventually determined that it had to be the Paithani, which she said didn't smell good on anyone. But on me, it developed fantastically. I had a similar experience with
Casamorati - Italica, which was flooded with negative reviews in the beginning. On me he develops class.
So it happened that I found this Duftpröbchen in a fragrance letter that I received. I read the notes and became curious.
Already with the first spraying on the paper I noticed that he is special.
First you get a wonderful soft fruitiness from pear and peach, both not necessarily my favorite fruits in fragrances, but here they are wonderful together.
When the musk mixes with ambroxan and vanilla, it literally results in a scent explosion in the fine soft way. It feels like floating on clouds. I believe that this fragrance can also have a wonderful calming effect on days where you can't find peace because of nervousness. Or even to fall asleep. As if one is stroked with cotton balls. Through the milk accord, the fragrance then gets a nice sweet but also gourmand touch. You also notice the fruity notes for a very long time together with the heart note, which is why you get a milkshake vibe. I really like it wonderfully.
The base of cedarwood (one of my favorite woody notes, besides my idolized Atlas cedar of course) and tonka bean make it no less appealing to me. The woody accord keeps it from being too sweet and the tonka bean highlights the gourmand part of the scent beautifully. I also didn't think the performance of this fragrance would be so solid. It is not a room filler but I perceive it sufficiently.
For me, the color of the fragrance is white and it feels fluffy. It surrounds me with a slightly hazy aura. Like a soft focus for everyday life. Quasi the side effect free antidepressant.
