Lillipur Tiziana Terenzi 2013

I have been registered with "Parfumo" for almost three months now and can't decide which fragrance to write my first comment about. Should I choose something special? Or my "go-to"?

For almost three days, I have had a sample of "Lillipur" (Thank you, MrWhite!). And suddenly I have a new fragrance category. There are special scents; there are "go-tos." And then there is "Lillipur."

I can't quite determine the fragrance notes yet, so I'll try to express my impressions.

I spray "Lillipur" on - and I AM "Lillipur." There is nothing foreign about it, nothing that isn't "me." At first, I smell something fresh, almost aquatic - is it wormwood? After about 20 minutes, that note dissipates, and the scent becomes smokier, spicier, "tobacco-like." I don't notice cinnamon. (And so the fragrance continues to live on my wrist, almost the entire workday long.)

But all of this doesn't matter at all, because I am no longer an external observer. I am in the scent, like in a cocoon, where time flows slower and the world becomes calmer. "Shire," said FLUidENTITY a few comments later. I can only agree with that. One feels pure satisfaction. One looks at the world with calmness - and the world looks back benevolently.

You don't wear "Lillipur." To wear something means to put it on. However, "Lillipur" is never put on; it doesn't emphasize personality, it is a part of it. Reaching for "Lillipur" in the morning is as natural as getting dressed or having a cup of tea. It simply belongs to my day to inhale "Lillipur."

With some fragrances, I used to feel like I didn't need any others, as they seemed so perfect and fitting to me. Not so with "Lillipur"; it is not a fragrance, it is a state.

"How are you?" "Thank you, I am Lillipur!"
