Vegetarian Bolognese?
What a blend for a perfume! I absolutely had to try this! If it’s not good, at least I’ve gained an experience. I love tomatoes and fennel. I enjoy the scent of tomato leaves and the taste of rather sour tomatoes. Poppy is also interesting, although one cannot know if the flowers are meant or the seeds like in poppy seed cake. You have to boil the poppy before you can use it in cake batter, which gives it a very unique scent.
I sprayed a generous amount on my wrists from the sample, that was two days ago in the afternoon. Indeed, a scent of tomato herb wafted into my nose. An herbal, bitter, and earthy smell, wonderful! And also the poppy, it seems to be the seeds, poppy flowers don’t have such a scent, comes to the fore. A woody note joins the poppy. Then the fennel comes in. And right away I thought that my husband could cook the vegetarian Bolognese sauce from the Swiss cookbook again. That’s a dish he enjoys making. However, it does include celery. But that’s not too far off from bulb fennel for my taste, and one could also use fennel bulbs, so I thought. A delicious scent.
Then I remembered the giant fennel plants we used to have in the front yard. They were perennial and really grew up to about 5 m tall. With many large umbels. In summer, a true paradise for insects, and in winter, due to the seeds, for the birds. I had sown giant fennel because I had seen in a botanical garden that not only bees but hoverflies and parasitic wasps, many types of bumblebees, wild bees, etc., were having a huge feast there; it was quite lively.
It was the same with us. All summer long, an insect orgy in the front yard. There were constantly hundreds of insect flying objects. And of course, birds came because it was a kind of buffet for them too; so many intoxicated insects were easy prey for the feathered ones. Fascinating stuff.
Next year, I’ll have at least one such giant plant here on the terrace. I’ve already noted down to buy the seeds.
But now Sigilli - Claudiae. What do I do with that? It becomes even more woody. At the very end, one perceives a hint of a rose. But it somehow remains a herbal vegetable smell like Minestra in Tuscany or a bit like French ratatouille. Just missing oregano and rosemary... Fortunately, the musk doesn’t play a role in my perception, patchouli makes it a bit woody.
As I write this, I’m really getting a craving for such a vegetable dish. It will be quenched right away with a delicious glass of Kraneburger, freshly tapped from the faucet.
This perfume has only triggered cravings for me. Then there’s the “inspiration” for an insect paradise bush. It’s somehow all about food, isn’t it?
Maybe someone else will also try this scent - uh - smell.
I love the scent!!! It’s appetite-inducing. But if I imagine how that would work in the office? Everyone would think I just came from the kitchen. Or at a conference. Concert, theater, and going out, rock concert, jazz? A great vernissage, for example? No, right? Somehow, that all doesn’t work.
It would work if you only went to a restaurant for food. But then you actually want to enjoy the food and the wine.
I’ll try Sigilli - Claudiae again on another occasion. Because when I sniff at the sprayer now, it’s actually a good scent, bitter and not so soupy, rather promising. But I won’t wear it as a bedtime scent. Now I need a contrasting fragrance.
I just see below in the classification that “Chypre” has also been mentioned for this scent. So I really don’t understand that at all! I also don’t understand some other things in that pie chart.
Addendum, this morning, 10:18 AM, Nov. 2012:
My husband absolutely wanted to try this appetizing perfume. But only on one wrist. He finds it exceptionally beautiful and balanced; this blend of autumnal potato herb fires with strong lavender. And indeed, a pleasant lavender scent wafts through our entire apartment, slightly soapy. Revitalizing on such a gray November morning, indeed. For my husband, Claudiae has a very strong lavender sillage. He says he would have no problem wearing it for festive occasions.
You can see how differently skin reacts to scents. I rated it 100% because it’s a quality perfume of the finest kind and original to boot. Just because I have strange scent perceptions doesn’t mean I have to classify it as inferior.
