And there it is again - the magic of yore
This perfume is like the ghost of old times.
Back when it came out, it was far too expensive for us as schoolgirls to buy the perfume. But there were Christmas and birthdays, so a friend of mine gave me the cream erosion of the fragrance and the matching shower gel. How much I loved this fragrance, and with the fragrance on me I met my husband at that time. Not that I knew that anymore - but more about that later.
Suddenly the Üffes was no longer the "perfume dealer of my trust", because I moved to the big wide world, and in our new home there was a Douglas - and years of Üffes abstinence began.
It was only a few years ago that I began to test perfumes from this house again. For a long time, I was sneaking around Comme une evidence - and I was afraid that I might really like the fragrance from my youth. I rejected many other fragrances from my youth and labeled them as a youthful sin - and yet chance would have it that a free bottle did hop into my shopping cart. I knew that if my nose, trained in oriental fragrances, didn't like it, I could give it away again. And I was so excited - I didn't want to destroy the beautiful memory that sometimes bursts like a soap bubble when I buy a new one. And yet I felt the need to wear this fragrance again.
Yesterday came the latest delivery, and there was nothing I was looking forward to more than this perfume. The bottle looked much nicer than I remembered, it's good to hold, but it's not a masterpiece. At that price - whatever
I sprayed - and instantly saw images from my youth around me again. And immediately I was again shocked and in love with this smell, which is so floral, so fresh, that I thought it was not mine at all. And yet - the straight-lined scent remains and plays around you without being obtrusive.
It didn't take me five minutes when I ran to my husband in the garden, held my throat in front of his nose and said: "Smell!"
He sniffed and said: "You smell like when we first met, so innocent!"
Now our first meeting was over 16 years ago and I did not know which perfume I was wearing. But he smelled it and knew: That was it
Before we drove into the city today for a stroll, a splash was not to be missed - and I still perceive this delicate scent.
In contrast to my other hummers, the scent is like a finely woven veil, handmade lace made of fine silk threads. It has character, although I would never classify it as chypre - it is floral without a pungent rose sticking out. There is something creamy about him without being boring. While I don't like many of the components, I love this interplay of impressions and am happy to have a fragrance that I can wear great in the summer but also imagine to be good in the winter.
It's like the relationship with my best friend: We also lost sight of each other for a decade and a half, and bam - we found each other again and our friendship has been stronger than ever for years, even with 900km between us. Comme une evidence is the perfume to it, and because she likes rose scents so much, this scent will end up in her package for Christmas.
And so the circle is complete - a perfume that is called as a matter of course has naturally re-entered my life. And unlike some, he's come to stay..
