The paladin of fragrances

I don't know what space smells like because I'm not an astronaut, but if there's one thing I learned in class back then, it's that space can't smell like anything because there are no molecules and fragrances in space that affect the sense of smell.

So this is not about fragrance gradients, sillage, radiance, etc. Whereby Apollonia has a moderate radiance and also lasts "quite ok". But to be honest, that doesn't interest me one bit!
Why? When I smell the fragrance, it is the coolest fragrance in my collection. It smells so clean, although it can't really do that, because can "absolute cold" smell so incredibly clean?
To me, the fragrance just smells "cool", in my nose the "coolest" fragrance in my collection. That's why the name "Apollonia" fits the name of the fragrance like a glove. As if a rocket takes off when you spray it on.

When I close my eyes, space smells like this fragrance to me. Extremely cold, immaculately clean, with a hint of creamy, almost buttery iris.

For me, this fragrance is a "satellite" that hovers above everything, knowing full well that there are more independent fragrances in the world. It watches over all the other fragrances like a guardian and ensures that everyone is safe and secure.

This is exactly what Apollonia is to me, the "guardian" looking down from above in the universe. It looks down on how other fragrances develop on earth, but at the same time it is not a perfect fragrance. It can never develop the perfection of other fragrances that other fragrances can develop through all the influences on earth, because it is simply inferior to simple fragrances.

It is not innovative. It is simply simple in itself... but it is simply perfect...
