Cuddle Fragrance
This morning, a package arrived from a lovely perfumer with many exciting samples and decants of fragrances that I had on my wishlist or had never heard of before. This includes the brand Stendhal and this perfume.
From the very first scent molecules that reached my nose, I was immediately captivated. From that moment on, I couldn't get enough of this dreamily beautiful fragrance.
I feel like a fairy gliding through a sea of delicately scented flowers, first the cherry blossoms, then the rose, mixed with heliotrope, beneath me a river of vanilla and musk.
I find this fragrance to be very feminine, sensual, sexy, and breathtakingly beautiful. Due to the vanilla and musk, it exudes a cozy warmth and comfort. Perfect for this time of year when the weather outside is cold and dreary, and perhaps a fire is burning in the fireplace while you cuddle together on the sofa, simply enjoying each other's company and experiencing a wonderful moment of happiness.
The longevity is enormous, and I am grateful to have the opportunity to test this fantastic fragrance, and I have already added it to my wishlist.

Lady Fragrance
After being completely enchanted by "Ambre Sublime" from Stendhal, which has of course long since found a place in my collection, I was curious to see what else Stendhal has to offer.

So here we have "Elixir Blanc". The opening is relatively fresh, with the delicious cherry blossom and angelica primarily filling my nose. The pink pepper tickles a bit, but it doesn't disturb.
Slowly, Madame Rose and iris join in. The rose is a very refined lady, somewhat reserved, yet still present. The iris quickly gives the fragrance a pleasantly powdery touch, which it retains even after hours.
Then the base notes spread out quickly, primarily sandalwood, vanilla, and musk. However, they do not overpower the rose; rather, they lay beneath it to support its noble scent.
I only notice the cedar at the very end, but its woodiness is not as pronounced as in some other fragrances.
What remains? A super elegant mix of rose, vanilla, musk, and woods. I know that perfumes cannot be "delicious," but I can't think of a better adjective for this one.

All in all, I find this more than balanced fragrance to be very elegant and feminine.
It is cozy, subtly sexy, clean, not sweet, rather close to the skin and unobtrusive.
In terms of quality, I would classify it as top-tier; its longevity is astonishing (the few drops from last night I could still faintly smell this morning after waking up), and I perceive the bottle as a true reflection of the fragrance: exclusivity inside and out.

Since the white elixir is a bit too feminine for me, I will (admittedly with a heavy heart) not use it for myself.

So I will have 10ml left over ;-))

Swiss Army knife scent:
Whether theater, office, dance, or bed -
always fine, elegant, and always neat.
A delicate femininity enhancer.

A fragrance like a gentle hug, sweet cherry blossom on a creamy-powdery white bed, a scent for cozy days and nights!

Another chapter from fairy, elf, and other magical scents. Delicately powdery-floral white comfort cuddle cloud à la L'Instant Magic.

Very subtle cream-snuggle scent, delicately floral. I can confirm the elf and fairy association, but for adult dreamers :)

Citrusy, woody - light - spicy-sweet-gourmand-creamy (heliotrope-vanilla) slight acidity = a bit metallic: pleasant scent

Reminds me of powdered sugar from unicorn land. Light pink, playful, sweet but not cheesy! Wonderful for cuddling at home :)

Sweet-woody powder scent with a light floral note. The wood note intensifies during the dry down. Much nicer than, for example, the wood in SheWood.

A bit more than nice, but it doesn't blow me away either.

Sweet-woody, slightly floral and powdery. Barely lasts on me and very delicate.
