quite eccentric!
A narrow entrance right next to the Memorial Church, almost filled by a large staircase: above, an entire floor of music - "City Music" was the name of it all.
But on the ground floor, right next to and under the stairs: a treasure chest of scents!
Even back then, there was a 25% discount, which was quite a lot even in the DM days.
A charming saleswoman who knew her customers and was always happy to order what they wanted or at least try to.
That's how I came to own my elegant leather case with the refillable crystal bottle of "Panthère" de Cartier.
One day, when I was once again busy on Kurfürstendamm, she called out: "Come here, I have something that you will surely like!"
Of course, my curiosity drove me in; what would she offer me this time?
On the glass sales counter stood a matte black package with golden lettering "V'E Versace". Hmm, looks quite elegant!
This little gem of cardboard released a bottle: the first impression reminded me of a failed attempt by a Bauhaus student! Interesting, but ...
A spray - breathless amazement on my part!
I was good and proper yesterday! Give me this truly eccentric scent!
What made this fragrance, which the truly glamorous Gianni Versace brought to market, so extraordinary, so breathtaking?
Yes, it was floral: from the early hyacinth and daffodil, the somewhat dampening bergamot, to the reigning queens of the floral kingdom: iris, jasmine, and rose - each one majestic and passionate.
Orange blossoms bring calm to this lively, bustling floral painting - that is very good!
A little pause, good for catching my breath, until ylang-ylang intervenes with a truly golden sound as a temporary highlight!
Now the scent shines almost ethereally; a circling of golden suns begins!
A full-bodied base, mysterious and erotic, each individual component. Frankincense adds the famous dot on the i - as always a bit scratchy and rebellious!
A rollercoaster ride with many golden lights that make you feel light and just a little bit reckless.
A golden Art Nouveau goddess with flowing scent veils in a quirky Bauhaus bottle - wow!
And once again: Wow!
The longevity was simply enormous: Versace's "V'E" took possession of me and didn't let go so quickly!
It was pure madness!
I don't know the new variant. And after the experiences I had back then with the original madness, I probably don't want to get to know it either.
It would be a shame to darken this golden light of a fragrance that my memory paints for me.
Because it can't get any more beautiful: not a rare unique piece, but: très raffisante!
