The dream of all dreams

"Weren't you here yesterday?"
The sales clerk asked me this after my 12th or so visit to the same perfumery.
Unsuspectingly, I shook my head, although at the same time I admired her ability to recognize people.
Tobacco Vanilla had done it to me - although I had smelled this fragrance so many times before, I just couldn't try it enough times.

"What exactly are you looking for?"
"I'm just looking around," I replied, hoping she would finally leave me alone.
How many times I had tried to get hold of a small bottle - each time without success.
Hopeless again today because of the woman who had recognized me.
So I walked out of the perfumery in a huff - if things went on like this, I would soon know the woman's working hours by heart.

Christmas was just around the corner and, as requested, I received a voucher for this perfumery. My eyes shone when I saw the card.
What did I want to buy with it? That was clear to everyone.
170.- the amount on the card - perfect for 30ml

9. January
I wasted no time and set off early in the morning (I knew the route by heart by now).
When I arrived, I saw the same woman at the counter again (it was obvious that she had to be there again).
As she was about to come back with her "I know you" line, I said with great pleasure: "Would you like 30ml of Tobacco Vanilla?"
She stared at me for a long time - maybe a minute, but it felt like an hour.
Why? Because maybe she couldn't believe that a 17-year-old really wanted to "buy" something and not just "hang around".
She couldn't really believe it until I pulled out the voucher.

You probably can't believe it... but yes: she even gave me small bottles of other TF fragrances!
I happily left the store
"The nice lady won't be seeing me that often in the near future", I thought to myself.

And now to the fragrance:
Tobacco Vanilla is a unique combination of vanilla and tobacco.
To be honest, I don't like the first few minutes at all. It only develops into a sweet but spicy fragrance in the dry-down.
My personal favorite from TF.
Definitely a recommendation for cold winter days!
But now that spring and summer are approaching - not so much.
Sillage and durability are excellent.

Conclusion:
Should not be missing in any good winter collection!
High price, but also good performance.

Thank you very much for your attention! (was a good exercise for me to improve my essay writing)
