My newest favorite...
I'll say it straight away: I love him. On the one hand it starts fresh (and almost spicy) with bergamot, at the same time its wonderful creaminess shines through, which characterizes the character of this fragrance throughout. A creaminess I had never known before. Neither soapy, nor too sweet, nor too powdery (although "too powdery" does not exist). Just just right. It is an unbelievably feminine and elegant fragrance... Thank God, the tubereuse holds back in a form in which it contributes its best qualities moderately to the Gesamtkunstwerk. I also mean to smell heliotrope. The drydown is pleasantly warm, as someone has already written here, not a classic chypre, because neither oakmoss nor patchouli dare to come out. What a stronger presence of these notes would have done with the overall scent is hard to say, would perhaps have contributed to a somewhat greater tension. But the way he is, I like wearing him very much. Signature scent potential!
