Lucky Find

I received this sample as a kind gift from a Parfumo member, and it is once again a rare hit in the dark black. A heartfelt thank you to Fischlandmen!

Already upon spraying, I am greeted by such a lovely freshness that my attention is heightened to the finest degree. I immediately delve into the ingredients to see what this light coolness brings to my nose and skin. Familiar ingredients are also included; above all, I can smell eucalyptus and white thyme. The eucalyptus is likely responsible for the refreshing aspect - nothing citrusy this time, yet still so fresh, this is a completely new experience for me. The scent also has a certain spiciness; it is not only cool but simultaneously warm, which I attribute to the musk and thyme. It is an aroma that instantly captivates me; what happens is what I always seek yet so rarely find: I am irresistibly drawn to this scent, a hit in the dark black and a lucky find. Experiencing this so surprisingly in a moment when I expect nothing special is a special joy and has sweetened my week. Such experiences are the reason I am interested in fragrances. It is the search for the ultimate royal scent - but as long as one is alive, one constantly changes, and this will always be replaced by a new royal scent.
However, this summer wonder is going on my wish list. Until then, I am satisfied with the sample.

A unisex fragrance that I can easily imagine on both genders. Regarding the bottle, I must say that this is once again one that I really like. Slightly tilted diagonally, it irritates form-wise just a bit, and the blue hue of the glass base matches perfectly with the cool scent.

I also see a similarity to "Aria di Mare"!

It really is beautiful :-) I find it relatively feminine, as it develops a certain soft, floral sweetness on me. And I see it as a scent twin to "Aria di Mare" ;-). Enthusiasm trophy!
