Le ballon masqué-Der Maskenball
The masquerade was well underway. Drunken and loudly laughing guests as far as the eye could see. Vulgar, decadent, and ordinary became the scene. It was time to leave. Now and immediately would be best. I could feel the champagne.
But then I saw her. She stood at the other end of the hall on a staircase, observing the
illustrious goings-on just like I was. She wore a long black dress with a back cutout that went down to her lower back. Her face was adorned with a golden fox mask. She seemed to have seen me and walked towards me.

The masses seemed to part, and even the violins sounded different than before as she approached me. She walked around me and whispered into my ear from behind, 'Come'!
The scent she exuded overwhelmed my senses. She trailed it behind her as we walked through endless corridors and hallways of the palazzo.
Until we stood before a black door whose knob was a golden mouth. She unlocked the door with a golden key that she pulled from her tightly pinned black hair. As her hair fell loose, it cascaded over her bare back.
The intoxicating smell emanating from her intensified even more.
Her entire room was bathed in candlelight and adorned with bouquets of roses.

We undressed down to our masks, and the fire shot through our loins.
Wild and unrestrained. Uninhibited and passionately we made love.
Surrounded by the dark rose scent that mingled with the smoky aroma of amber candles.
Her body smelled of vanilla and musk at the most intimate parts, writhing on the sheets full of lust and desire. The bed made of roses and sandalwood to which she bound me, riding me through the night. The patchouli oil with which we indulged, glistening like golden saliva on our bodies.

I will never forget the scent of that night, never and ever.
Nor the scratch that looked like a D on my shoulder.

Conclusion
I don’t want to say anything more about it today... some impressions should be left as beautifully perfect as they are.

This scent is it!

Not everything that glitters is gold ..
In this case, however, it really is.
Dali's Dabolus 1 Intense is worth its weight in gold and a true masterpiece that drives more arrows through my heart with every touch. Cupid is laughing to himself. Because Dali makes me float in love on clouds. In short: I am thrilled. A brief statement simply wasn't enough.

This perfume has little to do with the original Dali EdP from 1983. But it does share some similarities with the Fabulous 1 EdP. The Intense takes a completely different direction. There aren't many flowers. Just gently touched by rose water. It is more of a wonderful sweetness that blends with smoke and animalistic notes. Even the beginning suggests it is heading in a sweet direction.

But nothing feels intrusive, and it is a pleasant sweetness. So, it's not something that burrows into the lungs and sticks to the skin like honey. A light smoke envelops everything. What I like is that the smoke lingers noticeably in the scent for a long time. First cold and foggy, but then becoming denser and warmer. Shredded vanilla, carried by the hot desert wind, falls into the fragrance. It twirls with passion. I have to indulge myself and savor the scent from my joints. Woody, warm tones enter - resinous, they wrap around my heart. It shines and draws me in.

In the past few days, I have been complimented on the scent five times. "God - you smell amazing!" The fragrance becomes warmer - the smoke has everything firmly wrapped in a cloak, in its grip. It gives off pleasant, animalistic tones when it reaches its peak. It has something a bit dirty about it from then on. The sweetness drops into the cellar but rises again like a dangerous vapor. My mouth waters, and I bite my lips hard. It rocks! It makes the libido vibrate and heat up, even without a sauna. Heated, one tiptoes through the day, and it accompanies you late into the night. Until the dream, where you gently sink in. Happy and content. The sillage is also not to be underestimated. Even in the last breaths of this fragrance, there is always a pleasant hint of smoke, sweetness, and an animalistic tick on the skin that spirals upwards. Coarse sand rising. I always like to insert that thought. Additionally. Of course, all brightly illuminated by the sun. So, a class of its own from the house of Salvador Dali. However, this fragrance is not available everywhere, and certainly not something you can smell everywhere. That is appealing and awakens the - want sensor in the brain. I have already found it and will definitely acquire this golden piece.

Jackpot!

One Like All? All Like Derda?
... Yes and no!

Of course, even with closed eyes, a stuffed nose, and hands tied behind the back, it is still recognizable as Dali. Clearly, it resembles the structure of the women's Ur-Dali, as behind the golden lip lies the golden nose of Alberto Morillas, and anyone who looks at his creations quickly discovers that the handsome Alberto is not a big fan of delicate, intricate, and chaste fragrances.

The Gold Edition was created to celebrate the 1983 fragrance and was reformulated in 2011 for this purpose, and:
it has been perfectly achieved!

It is not just a reheated coffee in a new pot!

The Fab 1 is more intense, rounder, sharper, clearer, more compact, heavier, spicier, smokier, nobler - in short: bombastic!
There is no glass here.
Here, gold prevails. Heavy, luminous, pure gold.

Alberto Morillas, the passionate Spaniard, once said in an interview:
"No fragrance makes a woman sexy who isn't already."

For this sentence and for the fragrance, he deserves a Golden Order!

Sensually alluring seducer with an impressive evolution and a vibrantly erotic, very physical amber-sandalwood base.

Slightly sweet, subtly smoky-animalic, and increasingly powdery-ambered, mystical and very mysterious! Love at first sniff :))

A refined, slightly animalistic scent that is simply damn well made. Combined with the bottle, it becomes a collector's item.

When gold speaks, the world falls silent. - Latin proverb.
A misty veil of smoke that envelops sweet and animalic notes.

Great! Sensual, smoky, resinous-sweet with a hint of rose. Longevity and sillage are top-notch. Would fit well in my collection.
