Hedonist Viktoria Minya 2013

The discovery of the year 2013 HEDONIST, Golden Beauty

This perfume leaves me speechless…at least for now! :=)
What a shiver..of golden honey, of sun rays, a glass of rum with ice, the finest pipe tobacco.

Yes, all the listed notes are present, but it would be dull to simply mention them..

The overall impression is incredibly positive, warm, sensual, caressing, gourmand, intense. Creamy, seductive, like a day on a Hawaiian beach.

The scent is very complex, many layers unfold slowly. One is, so to speak, swimming on layers of various flowers, fruits, honey, and vanilla.

The peach and orange blossom are very dominant in the top note, but they are quickly immersed in bright yellow honey, vanilla pods, and thick, viscous rum.

Then the tobacco note, such a fine (unlit) fresh tobacco, not too intense, gentle and distant.

A delight for the senses, pure radiant joy of life. The joy of being itself. To stand by one's longing (addiction) :=)

This composition outshines everything I have ever smelled in this direction - Tobacco Vanille? Rough and simplistic in comparison.. The combination of the notes ensures that, I have found nothing like it..

Ah, I could rave about this scent for hours. Clearly THE discovery of 2013 so far for me..even though I am from the rose-iris-white flower faction!!!

The price is of course initially daunting: 139,- for 45ml of this little potion…well, I have no regrets, really hedonistic, right? :=)

-The bottle is also a dream, as is the packaging (although I am generally very little interested in bottles)

Lovers of Frapin's beautiful cognac scents should definitely test HEDONIST, the rum note here is fabulous!!
