Secret de Weil Weil 2011

that unfortunately is all too fleeting! I indulged in it blindly after having been pregnant with this composition for quite a while. What attracted me was the fragrance pyramid, and I finally dared to try it....today it arrived, and I was as happy as a child under the Christmas tree just before the gift-giving. The scent opens lightly vanilla-soft, almost creamy, which is beautiful on the skin. The pepper immediately comes to the fore, but gently and a bit timidly, almost shy....wonderfully lovely for the olfactory bulb. Then a beautiful bouquet of flowers unfolds, but not overloaded or strict....luckily, the roses hold back well, as I'm not fond of rose scents; I can catch a tiny whiff of lily, but only briefly....at this point, the fragrance also becomes a bit spicier, more complex, the powdery aspect dissipates, and it gains depth and intensity, which I find very pleasant. It remains quite close to the skin and discreet the whole time, never intrusive or unpleasant....ladylike comes to mind, although I would never describe myself as a lady ;-) the scent has something noble, it radiates freshness and purity, but without appearing stuffy or prim, it has nothing to do with freshly washed laundry....
The longer I perceive it on my wrist, the more I enjoy it. The base almost caresses me with a brilliant mix of a hint of bitterness (that's the cedar and vetiver), which lingers for a long time. The only downside is probably the relatively poor longevity; I reapplied after 2 hours, but with great joy! The 30ml bottle probably won't last too long with me....I love it, the mysterious one from Weil!
