At the Bottom of Reality...
…there's simply too little sparkle.
Well, it might not be original to start a comment with such a saying that you can occasionally find on postcards. And it's a bit clichéd, like "I kiss better than I cook." But two things cannot be denied. Sometimes, when you read it, you have to at least smile a little. And yes, that's true! The bottom of reality is sometimes so horrifically gray and sparkles far too little.
Now, I'm not the type who needs a lot of colors. I don't have a favorite color, since black unfortunately isn't a color. That's how it is. But on some days, I too need a pretty dress with flowers. Or at least color in perfume form. And then please make it proper, with sparkle.
Those are the days when, if you go out with friends, you don't sip wine stylishly in a trendy location, but rather enjoy squeaky cocktails at a beach bar - which means: actually too sweet and with colors that couldn't be more vibrant, but just fun - and then take off your high heels to dance in the sand. Regardless of the fact that you’re still wearing a blouse or a fitted dress.
Those are the days when, as a niche perfume lover, you need Monodie. Because Monodie is just fun. It's zesty, fresh, cheerful, fruity, life-affirming, and much more. And somehow also pretty much everything that isn't typically niche. Not cerebral, nor super demanding. Not a scent you can debate about. One you want to wear, one you have to showcase.
A champagne fruit cocktail with mirabelle. I must note - I love mirabelles and that's a note that, in my opinion, is used far too rarely. Carefree fruits at the beginning, then subtle, beautiful flowers that bloom cheerfully. Still far from wilting. And a cozy-sweet base.
Somehow niche within the niche, as there's no attempt to be particularly demanding. Just the simple expectation that it should be fun to wear. Of course, one could philosophize about the connection to music. Monodie is indeed a form of music. But I'll skip that. If you're interested, giyf.
I’d rather repeat myself: Monodie sparkles and shines so beautifully. And it's fun - and it shows me that this is actually what I often seek in a fragrance. Because no matter how beautiful it is, how complex, how exciting - I never feel as good as when I simply spray something that is fun and with which I can have fun. And that makes all the realities, whatever they may be, appear sparkling.
