Britannia Roja Parfums 2016

"Dear customer,
we congratulate you on choosing the product 'Britannia' from the house of Roja and wish you wonderful hours with this fascinating fragrance, which seeks its equal in its uniqueness.
We look forward to any complaints with calmness."

If the person to whom I owe my sample had written an instruction leaflet - it could have read like this. Must. Should. Oh, what do I know.
Curiosity led me to Britannia, completely suppressing reason, which timidly kept raising its hand and saying: "It's powder! Powder! You don't like it! A POWDER SCENT! Pooowder! To spray! Spray powder, basically! You can skip it! Just stop!" it sighed.
Nothing. Bring it on!

When Britannia arrived here, of course, I had to immediately unscrew the atomizer and hold the vial to my nose. If you slip while doing this, you end up with the vial on or almost in your nose, thus getting a first impression.
And what was that? Powder? In here? Nope! A strong, stiff laundry breeze, the white giant must live here!
But wait.... The stuff quickly changed its state. Yes, now the tip of my nose felt snow-white. For real.
No time now, wash the nose, examine it more closely tomorrow.
The next day, the conscious test. Powder? Really now?
Well then...
I like the white giant, especially because the laundry flutters so airy and joyfully on the kilometer-long line.
So it is here too. Clean! Powdery? Yes, but not so dry and dusty that you choke.
More like I’m sitting in a huge tub filled with finely perfumed luxury body powder (outdoors!) and happily letting the powder trickle through my fingers. A sandbox for the crazy, basically. And depending on how deep I dig, sometimes cocoa (powder) or even vanilla (powder) - not the sweet one! - or just a bit more floral powder comes up and trickles through my fingers. Sometimes, towards the end, it gets really warm! Warm powder? What a world...
I’m having a blast! For hours!

With this POWDER perfume. Well. What can you do. It doesn't dry out my skin and brings joy. That's enough for me!
THIS is how I like powder. Fact.

PS: Thank you, Grumpy ;-)
