Hmm… just the term chocolate sauce sounds somehow great, right? And of course, also very calorie-rich… aah you probably know how wonderful those chocolate fountains are, under which you hold bananas and strawberries, yum yum :DD
But I should probably get to the fragrance description before you all start drooling just because your mouth is watering :D
The scent:
At first, I smell aldehydes, like those found in various fragrances such as Chanel No. 5. But right at the beginning, you are almost overwhelmed by a rather intense anise note, but only almost, as this note calms down a bit, especially with the patchouli, which subtly comes in and gradually unfolds more and more. The patchouli and the anise have a strange, but not unpleasant interplay, which you can't necessarily smell every day in a fragrance. Additionally, there is a sweetness (although not listed in the fragrance pyramid) that reminds one of chocolate or cocoa, giving the scent a certain similarity to Guerlain's L’Instant pour Homme, only more floral (probably due to the hawthorn).
In the heart note, there are also powdery notes,… yes, that's true. It may not smell like iris or anything, but the scent is indeed soft and powdery, and it smells good.
Towards the base, the anise fades more and more, so that the fragrance loses its special note, but still smells good (and if someone doesn't like anise, they can breathe a sigh of relief, as this note is only detectable in the background later on). The patchouli (now well detectable with the sandalwood in the base) dominates here, as might be expected from the name of the fragrance; the scent remains somewhat floral with a well-perceptible sweetness that still has a slightly chocolatey aroma, but also hints of amber. I couldn't detect any musk, though. A bit later, the sweet notes unfortunately become noticeably weaker, so that you almost only smell patchouli.
The sillage and longevity:
The sillage is below average and therefore only detectable from close up. You shouldn't expect a scent cloud here.
The longevity is okay, as it lasts about seven to eight hours.
The bottle:
Even though the bottles are usually just rectangular and tall, the bottles from Réminiscence are often beautifully designed. Here you see an "artful" dark splash that looks like a rising (scent) cloud. The neck of the bottle is chrome-plated, and the cap is rectangular and white. Simple in itself, but such small motifs on the bottle can have a quite enhancing effect.
The scent starts off quite interesting and different because of the anise. I would describe it as special since you don't always get to smell something like this, and some people (especially if they don't like anise) might find the beginning a bit challenging. However, over time, the scent calms down and loses this special note, which is not a real loss, as it then smells beautifully chocolatey as described.
The scent is generally soft for a patchouli fragrance, yet this note is quite dominant, so you really have to like patchouli in fragrances, as especially towards the end, the scent only smells of patchouli after it has lost all its sweet notes (and it even comes off a bit stuffy).
The scent is not too heavy and could therefore be used as an all-rounder. And rather as a daytime fragrance instead of for going out, but as always, everyone has to decide that for themselves; I'm just sharing my opinion here :D
The scent is not bad, so patchouli lovers might want to check this one out.
