Welcome to Guess the Reviewer*in, the quiz for young and old perfume lovers! Let's start with the first round, who might be hiding here?
'The olfactory round begins with a salty note that originally evokes the sea, but at the same time does not connote cacophemistic aquatics, paraphrasing them without asserting the traditional notes (calone and co.). A sublime freshness resonates, as if reminiscent of Hesperides, becoming successively more striking, mysterious, because miraculous, not instantly explicable from the notes given. Fresh, cool, but not stygian. Salient is the reciprocity of the notes, which deterministically form constituents...'
Ding! I know him, he has such a beard and no hair on his head... what's his name again...... Qwitza or Jitza or something like that... oh, Menno!
Well, we should already know the name, with a beard and no hair on his head, there are clearly too many people who could fit this description! Let's just move on to the next reviewer, maybe you'll have better luck:
'...light and bright incense, spicy and resinous at the same time. Like light fog over Ses Salines, the dream beach on my beloved Ibiza. But I could also imagine it while running, when after the first 20 kilometers, having just warmed up, I come steeply up the mountain into the forest where the mist catches between the fir trees. I often think of Cašmir, who I fell in love with as a little girl. He has nothing to do with this at all, but I just had to mention him, my chickens love him too...'
Ding! That was difficult, but I think that's Pollita...?
Correct! The Black Forest Pollita! The first 5 euros go straight into the piggy bank! Let's continue right away, who is hiding here:
'Zisch!'
Ding! That's easy, it's the Axiomatic, it always hisses a lot.
Yes, that was probably a bit too simple, but it's nice that we got to the point so quickly. On to the last one in the round:
'...and you see the lanterns in which myrrh glows, casting shadows on house walls, a hint of wood, how the incense resins gradually burn out, only sparks bloom briefly before everything goes out. The myrrh-calyptic riders push on, out of the nave into resinous expanses, whirling up sweet earth...'
Ding! But I know him now, he's got a beard like that and no hair on his head, that's Floyd, the old forest gnome!
And that's right! And if you can now guess which fragrance our reviewers have described, I'll double the prize again!
Such fresh, spicy incense with a slightly aquatic note? That can only be Acqua di Giò Profumo, right?
Certainly not! Acqua di Giò, I can't believe it... take your pig and off you go... all these philistines here... really, I'm not Jörg Dräger here...
--------------------
To summarize briefly (not that our esteemed reviewers haven't already described it perfectly): a wonderfully un-aquatic incense fragrance that is only reminiscent of the sea due to the salty note in the first half hour and retains something fresh and limey throughout (probably from the incense). The base is more resinous, sweeter and warmer with a hint of myrrh. Great, simple and clear (and of course has nothing at all to do with Acqua di Giò Profumo, so you can kind of understand the presenter, even if his reaction was of course not very professional).
