Japanese Rituals Tesori d'Oriente

Here comes another comment about the budget fragrance line Tesori d’Oriente. Although the term only refers to the price with this brand, as these scents are quite affordable, there are indeed some really great fragrances among them, especially for you ladies.

Today, I want to tell you something about Japanese Rituals. What kind of ritual could that be? No, this time I don't want to report on a tea ritual, as I've somehow written enough about tea lately here, right?
Now you must say: "No, dear Don Juan, you can write as much about tea as you want!"
So?
Of course, no one says such things... *sigh*
Well, whatever. This scent is not a tea scent anyway, but I will complain again about milk in teas in my next tea scent, mu ha ha ha!

Well, another ritual seems to be the annual celebration of the blooming cherry blossoms, which is much more fitting for this fragrance. Although the scent does not smell like cherry blossoms, it is very floral and exudes a lovely spring atmosphere.

**The Scent:**
The fragrance starts off very fresh, as it begins with citrus notes. You can clearly smell the bergamot, which also slightly reminds you of tea, along with other citrus notes that provide a tingling sensation for a short while.
After a bit, you begin to smell the freesias, but this scent is then overlaid by the sweeter osmanthus (and probably jasmine as well). After just a few minutes, the citrus notes disappear, along with the bergamot's tea-like scent.
The heart note is mainly floral and sweet. There are many floral notes in it, which do not make the scent too stuffy, but rather sweet.
In the base, it continues to smell quite floral and sweet; the cedarwood is a bit weak, musk smells sweet as always, and the patchouli seems to completely fade away.

**The Sillage and Longevity:**
The sillage is okay; the scent can be perceived reasonably well from not too far away. Unfortunately, this projection does not last long, so you should reapply shortly after.
The longevity is not too bad, as the scent lasts more than ten hours. However, it should also be mentioned that after such a long time, the scent becomes a bit too floral-stuffy and thus does not smell as particularly great anymore.

**The Bottle:**
The bottle is metallic and resembles a deodorant can. However, the Tesori d’Oriente bottles usually have nice labels or prints on them. Here, the bottle is black with beautiful red floral motifs, and the label has golden edges. All in all, quite nice.

So, that was another Tesori d’Oriente fragrance. I liked it, although it is a bit too floral for me personally, as always. But it is, after all, a women's fragrance that should suit you ladies better. I also think you will like it even more than I do. Don’t expect anything extraordinary, as the scent can be roughly summarized as floral and sweet, but it is pleasant. And given the affordable price, you really can't go wrong here, unless, of course, you are not a fan of the large number of floral scents.

Otherwise, the fragrance is well-suited for warm days, as it exudes, as mentioned in the introduction, an aura of spring and somehow also slightly reminds of cherry blossom festivals, which are traditionally celebrated in Japan like a ritual.

As I said, Japanese Rituals is a nice spring scent that you might want to check out.
