Narciso Narciso Rodriguez 2014 Eau de Parfum
1
The Most Normal Perfume in the World
Years ago, when I wasn't really into collecting and comparing perfumes, I smelled Narciso Rodriguez Narciso in the white bottle at Macy's and found it so very interesting and unique. Weird and artistic even. A sort of lactonic gardenia. I never forgot it after all this time, even after it has long disappeared from the department store shelves. So it entered my decant list to try almost 10 years later.
My husband and I did a comparison paper test of 16 random scents and it came out as my number 6 choice. His one word summary was it is "soapy, similar to Tubéreuse Nue". Upon wearing it, I realized this isn't so unique. It is pleasant but nothing mind blowing. Perhaps in 2014. But it reminds me of something I would wear to the bank. If I had to pick one example of a typical "perfume" to share with an alien species, it would be Narciso Rodriguez Narciso. The most normal perfume in the world.
