She dares (...but not too much)

This one is a very particular fragrance. First of all, the name : it's a play on words (J'ose, French verb for I dare and José -Eisenberg)
The packaging shows a girl with a very masculin cigar and then the elegant and squared bottle reveals a unique scent: aromatic-citrusy at the opening, but warm at the base (on my skin i smelled mainly the cedarwood) , with a noticeable Mocha note at the heart.
It could be a masculin or unisex scent and maybe for this reason the woman who wears this fragrance dares and shows her alternative and unconventional character.
But this woman knows very well the play of seduction and she dares...but not too much. So, the sillage of this fragrance isn't so strong like you could expect. Maybe this is damage, in comparison to the high price,
Anyway, it remains a unique fragrance to wear when you want to run the game!

Fresh, aromatic and soothing

The opening is a beautiful, aromatic blast of lavender and mint. It is almost spa-like and very soothing.

As it dries down, the coffee, tonka-bean, and vanilla make their presence known. The combination is a comforting, fresh, floral, and slightly gourmand.

I can't decide if it smells more like a lavender latte or a mint mocha. It's refreshing and soothing at the same time. It's like sipping coffee after a nice long massage and you can still smell the aromatherapy oils on you. I would wear this anywhere and everywhere. This is so beautiful!

Not great but interesting

Not so well-known, this is an aromatic take on the lavender-coffee combo. It is marketed to women but I don't find it feminine at all, quite unisex actually. I'm interested in everything that has coffee without the sweetness and this is it. Overall, this has a "designer" feel to it. It doesn't have much depth so it won't scare off the masses. With a touch of hay and cigarettes, I'd say it's quite interesting.

From mint, mocha & courage

"J'ose" is a phenomenon for me.

I met him a few days ago, when I entered a perfumery with the vague search criteria "unisex, unusual, suitable for everyday use".
What was hiding behind these blurry key points, however, was much more complex: Actually, I was looking for a fragrance that makes courage. The kind of courage that helps you make unconventional decisions. And yes, I believe that a fragrance can help you do that. Because he reminds you throughout the day every now and then quietly that you have given yourself a promise.

Usually I browse in perfumeries rather alone, because I can then quietly trace what a fragrance triggers in me. But on this day, a consultant greeted me so nicely and unobtrusively that I gave her my almost hopelessly superficial criteria. She - an older woman with very short blond hair, eye-catching glasses, and a sympathetic, ironic smile - eyed me briefly and led me to the shelf of Eisenberg Paris fragrances. A house that I had not known at all until then. She picked up a simple bottle, which somehow seemed elegant because of its minimalist design - and said: "One of my favorites. J'ose - that means: I dare!"

Our eyes met very briefly before I sniffed the strip of paper she held out to me. A wonderful scent. Fresh yet warm, unusual, light, complex - and somehow familiar.

Objectively speaking - if you can say that about fragrances at all - J'ose is certainly not a "WOW" fragrance that screams loudly for attention or catapults you mentally into a certain situation. But it has an oscillating charisma that is anything but ordinary while being firmly anchored in the present. Probably this dazzling effect comes from an unusual combination of fragrance notes: mint and mocha, lavender and vanilla, warm amber and cool moss. I was fascinated.

Unfortunately, the scent did not last very long on my skin: after about 4 hours, I smelled it only very lightly. On my favorite cashmere scarf, which the sympathetic saleswoman had generously sprayed, he made it but cozy. And so for days, a whiff of "J'ose" rises again and again in my nose.

And this breath then whispers audibly: "Come on, you promised yourself: Dare something!"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Addendum:
Following the tip of a friend, I found a great layering combination that significantly extends the shelf life of "J'ose" and even gives the fragrance on my skin an additional, very pleasant facet.
From now on, I spray on "Molecule 02" as a base before the great daring companion from Eisenberg Paris comes into play. So he accompanies me over at least 6 hours well perceptible, then another 2 as warm-cuddly Skinscent.

One of my favorite scents

One of my favourite scents among the "department store scents". If only it weren't for its incredibly poor shelf life. To deliver such a bad performance for the price is almost an impertinence.

I had already acquired Eisenberg J'Ose several times. However, last year I decided not to buy it anymore. Almost 60€ for 30 ml and such a miserable performance.

On my skin, as well as on the skin of several friends and acquaintances, the scent disappears within half an hour at most!

I have nothing to criticize about the low sillage. Some manufacturers deliberately keep their fragrances mild
I hope that the durability will be improved. Until then, I'm most likely not ready to buy the scent again
