the Janus-faced
I, too, am not sure where the journey goes with "Miraj": it contains virginal freshness and sensual sweetness.
It will certainly be exciting to see how we both will experience each other in the future.
Dark green, as if lacquered foliage of lemon and orange groves invites the first fragrance experience: tangy, wonderful lemon - I think of the limoneries on Lake Garda and the Amalfi Coast - welcomes wonderfully ripe and round in flavor.
Nothing is sour, nothing scratchy, nothing biting - lemon aroma as only long sunny days and cool southern nights can produce: simply dreamlike!
The orange, which joins harmoniously and softly, has also been allowed to experience this magnificent backdrop until its full maturity. So is its fragrance: slightly sweet, tenderly embracing - like a delicate lace fabric that lightly envelops. More flatters than protects!
Both together opens the view over the great citrus plantations of Sicily, to the snow-capped Etna, which again seems to hover over the landscape.
This entrée draws the magnificent picture, just by the two fragrances.
Vanilla and almond are then stirred in sensitively and generously: this fragrant melange, which now arises, does not clump - it is all around supple, creamy and deeply touching the senses.
The slightly more tart, greener lime adds a few splashes of juice; the large cauldron in which this magic fragrance is created is a bit reminiscent of a little bowl from which the remaining crème dessert may still be licked out. The temptation is great!
However, a little innocence is still in this fragrance composition - it is still waiting for its full maturity.
A renewed vanilla push, refined with a good portion of dark rum (vanilla and rum - an irresistible mixture!) and another good squeeze of lemon lets the seduction awaken.
The just a little fresh virgin scent, begins to loll and now reaches a warm, deeply erotic sensuality.
"Miraj" leads from the lemon orange sorbet directly into the slightly drunken heaven of temptation.
And that in soft golden-brown waves that seductively caress.
The course of the fragrance thus pleases several hours, from the young tangy being to the completion it can take; but the above-average full-bodied durability supports this fragrance in its pupation: the cheerful caterpillar becomes a seductive butterfly!
Here again I realize that my skepticism citrus aromas towards, once again out of place.
That I have become over the years a pronounced vanilla rum lover, can now no longer be concealed.
But if, as here with "Miraj" both are so wonderfully combined and come to such balanced beauty, then I'm just thrilled.
Still I am not sure which of the two sides of this fragrance I like best. Or is it what ultimately results from everything?
As a Gemini-born I keep it once again with Mr. Geheimrat Goethe: "So I stagger from desire to pleasure and in the pleasure I verschmacht' after desire!"
