Waiting and drinking tea

It was the famous fluke.
The perfume was not on my wishlist, nor was it on my watch list, I haven't even heard of it.
With weekly stroll by perfumeries, actually on the search for a rose smell (not again...!), I discovered it then. There was no test bottle, no test test sample and the saleswoman had no idea. Unfortunately there were no comments at Parfumo, not even statements.
Do what? Blind buy! But this time a well done one.
The fragrance starts with a strong black tea note, which remains present until the end. Directly after that comes the rose. This is a tea rose ( oh no, what a coincidence! :-)), more precisely, tea peony. It is pale pinkish orange, already half withered, slightly sweetish scent, with a subtle citrus note. Immediately afterwards, the currants come into play and the fragrance almost threatens to wilt. But it does not happen. The scent remains, on the edge, but unchanged. With time it becomes woody, the black tea note appears softer, rounded. Rose stays also until the end, but this is no longer a flower, but only loose rose petals.
It's a fragrance to get down, to relax. It calms the mind and brightens the spirit Very helpful, especially in these times;-)
