Tender Wild
Inspired by the pyramid and the bottle, and aided by a bargain price, DW found its way to my home.
It starts off a bit heavily floral, not oppressively so, rather melancholic. I find that the gardenia takes the lead and doesn’t let go of the petals. Meanwhile, a few other notes are allowed to come closer to the scepter to catch a whiff of the reign. In a side-by-side test on skin and fabric, the scent remained nearly identical for me. On fabric, it is a bit fresher in the progression, otherwise the same. Jasmine sambac adds even more depth to the opening note than it already has. Musk provides a soft cushion. Then the woody notes reveal themselves to me. DW takes a small and very special turn with them. This makes the scent, in this constellation, feel very special and unusual, even though there are many similar floral fragrances. The small twist is the crux that distinguishes it from them. After a few minutes, the scent becomes warmer, sweeter, and cozier, but still with a hint of melancholy. It is by no means bothersome; rather, it adds depth and sensuality. The name may be misleading, as I would not compare DW to anything wild or untamed. I would rather call it quirky. In the most positive sense. For me, DW leans towards a classic and somewhat more elegant fragrance. At best, sporty-elegant. I would place it in the warmer temperatures of spring to autumn. In winter, it seems to fade and doesn’t quite fit with the notes. There are far more typical fragrances for that. Of course, the bottle is a true feast for the eyes with its cheekily tilted "headpiece."
Dali, the stylish tame wild one, a gem for the bath and soul.
