The Truth About Rosemary's Baby!

Some of you may still remember the subtle horror film by Roman Polanski from 1968.
A young, childless couple moves into an old but beautiful house. As it turns out later, the other residents are all Satanists. Rosemary's husband Guy succumbs to the Satanists. Rosemary is drugged with the help of a mousse au chocolat (which her neighbor prepared) and later that night is impregnated by the devil, under the watchful eyes of the assembled circle of Satanists.
Since she experiences severe pain during her pregnancy, they force her to drink a terrible herbal potion so that the spawn of Satan can thrive in Rosemary's belly.
So, where is the crux of the matter? It lies in madness!
I admit here that I am a customer of a shopping channel. I live in the sticks and sometimes this is a good alternative. Moreover, I vouch for the cosmetic lines of M. Asam and Elizabeth Grant. Look at my photo, I'm 55 do I have wrinkles? Nope!
Well, I thought, why not order a few fragrances from the jewel-adorned and lip-injected peacock Harald Glööckler. Other crazy designers have produced good, bad, and mediocre scents.
Gold is horridly beautiful. A peculiar herbal potion that old Harald probably indulges in more often. Unfortunately, after application, it develops a sharp note that bothers me a lot, yet also fascinates me. I then hung a cross upside down, but that didn't help either.
I must admit, though - having tested many, many fragrances - this scent has something unique and I have never smelled anything like it.
No rose appears!
Rosemary has had her baby taken away and is told it is dead. But she hears it crying. At the black cradle to which she is led, she falls in love with her child through the eyes of the devil. Watch the film, and you will understand how I perceive the scent.
A cold patchouli cellar emerges. Are terrible things happening there, or are just a few toads hibernating? Callas says it, this very occult stuff that permeates the scent is Tanis root!
I am torn, do I find it devilishly good or satanically bad? No, it is not bad. Well, at QVC I have four weeks to let this go through my mind or through my nose. The scent is unusual, to say the least.... See you later alligator.

As a child, the movie gave me many sleepless nights. Whether I need a backlash from a fragrance as a nearly retired person is something I need to think about.

I can still remember the movie very well... If gold smells like that, then you're really brave, and you're saving me the test ;-D
Ugh... creepy satanic cellar... I've got goosebumps.

Well said, Medusa, it's actually not a bad scent, but somehow it feels soulless. Is it due to the overdose of chemicals?

I definitely have to get it now! I tested it last year and didn't think it was bad at all. If I had put in a bit more effort years ago, I would be **Mrs. POMPÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖÖSSSSSSSS** by now!

Asam - the best cream, I have it too, but I have zero interest in this scent without orange and peach. Instead, a devilish trophy.

Love the movie, have seen it countless times. Glööckler and Rosemary's Baby- I would have never thought of that combination *dying laughing*

As long as it doesn't smell like Tanis root in the movie, you can keep it :-)
(I love the movie!)

Once again, an incredibly entertaining comment. Your associations with the movie - who would think of that!!
Do orange and peach come up?
