The good old times...

Shanghai Lily...
This is exactly we expect from a TF fragrance.
A devastating beauty, an absolute masterpiece, an olfactory jewel, no more, no less.
How happy im to own a full bottle of this wonderful nectar !!
After sniffing the juice for the first time, i literally fell on my knees...
I was left speechless !!
I couldn't help but sniff the back of my hand over and over...
That's the old TF that we love, one of those unfortunately discontinued fragrances that gave all the charm to the fabulous Private Blend Collection.
Amber, spicy, floral, sweet, addictive, warm, powdery, chic, sexy, mysterious, smoky, suave, languorous, hot...
Words fail me...
It's as if Noir de Noir and Plum Japonais had merged.
A kind of a thousand old and sweet spices, bouquets of flowers that have reached perfect maturity, coupled with a mystical incense, all forming a magical threesome !!
You almost feel even more beautiful, more confident when you wearing this perfume.
Rather strong in the opening, and with a moderate/powerful sillage, almost eternal longevity and absolutely divine drying, it will therefore be completely useless to spray yourself with it excessively.
From my personal opinion, this perfume represents the perfect balance between seductive mystery and pure innocence.
A real olfactory cocktail, i also really appreciate this vintage, mature, almost old-fashioned side in the good sense of the word.
For me, both masculine and feminine, it will be perfect for the cold months, but not really recommended in summer.
One and only regret however, his discontinuity :(
Conclusion: Shanghai Lily, to be reserved only for REAL perfume lovers.
So only wear this gem on rare occasions.
My note: No need to mention it, it's a 2x5 out of 10
So even for 10 000 bucks, you won't get my bottle of Shanghai Lily :)
