Taming Cocktails Made Difficult
I am a summer child. I prefer it warm rather than cold. I'd rather have 40 degrees than -10. And yet, our Nordic neighboring countries radiate a certain mystique and fascination that I cannot and do not want to deny. I also know that Moods of Norway is not a discount brand offering cheap goods. They represent their venerable country in anything but a bad way. But "Eau de Cocktail pour Femme" is, to my nose, a medium-sized catastrophe. I like cocktails. It doesn't always have to be something masculine like beer or whiskey. I like the country Norway. I like rose scents. And yet, this cocktail is very hard to get through my olfactory organ. If this is supposed to be one of the moods of Norway, then I am glad I haven't encountered it live yet...
The synthetic spritz reminds me of a mix of children's soda, sangria, and rose sauna. Anything but subtle or sexy. Rather blatant, cheap-looking, and tasteless. Simply not a good scent. And this has as much to do with Norway as a Caipirinha or the Cape of Good Hope. Unfortunately, I quickly lost interest and can even only advise women: better stick to the men's version during a holiday in Norway. If it absolutely has to be a cocktail. I quickly get a headache here and would already send this cocktail back in any bar, even with a good buzz. It reminds me of the disgusting cherries that sometimes hang on top of cocktails or ice cream sundaes. Quite yuck. The Vikings are turning in their icy graves.
Bottle: a fine, not too playful holiday souvenir it could be.
Sillage: fizzy powder at a medium-sized children's birthday party
Longevity: 5-6 hours - a short trip to Oslo.
Conclusion: more than just a holiday souvenir? Unfortunately, not this version. But in general, "Moods of Norway" makes nice scents, even if they could still be a bit more Norwegian, rougher, and more natural. This one, however, is one of the cheaper roses in a long time.
