This is an elixir of good humor.
You can feel the mastery of Olivier Cresp and Marie Salamagne, who created Black Opium for Yves Saint Laurent.

The complementary, complex and deep aroma reveals itself little by little.
It is amazing that iris, patchouli and vanilla - three components - make such a complex sound and development. The pyramid is simple. Or perhaps all genius is simple? But such a long-lasting and sonorous perfume cannot consist of just three components!

I am interested.
In the composition indicated on the perfume packaging:

Linalool (lavender, mint, ylang-ylang, bergamot...),
Limonene (lemon),
Geraniol (rose, lavender, mint),
Alpha-isomethil-ionone (iris-purple-powdery),
Citronellol (apple with citrus fruits)
Coumarin (spicy-hay-like scent),
Isoeugenol (clove with woody and floral notes),
Eugenol (sweet, spicy aroma of clove buds with woody and slightly floral undertones. Denser and richer than iso-eugenol),
etc.
That's all except the basic perfume composition.

Therefore, the composition given on the website is of course very approximate. The imagination and life experience of each individual helps them to complete their fragrance.
Velvety patchouli, subtle vanilla, noble irises, berries...

Or perhaps it is not necessary to analyze the aroma in notes?
I simply enjoy it.

A beautiful, calm, shimmering aroma with good longevity and a sweet, powdery sillage.
This is an elixir of good humor. Suitable for the evening and at home. I want to be busy! Beautiful in any weather, but especially beautiful in fall. A fall-winter relaxer, especially in rainy weather.

The bottle is an enchanting drop, as if made from a piece of amber, like a vial for magic potions!

Judging by the price increase, the perfume has been discontinued or will be discontinued. Write who has reliable sources.

A snooze
I had this in my collection, but it was so bland that I sold it before I managed to post my review. It's been almost a year.
[Review]

Three notes. Patchouli, vanilla and orris. I am looking forward to an earthy, rich vanilla with an elegant powdery and smooth base. What I get is a scent like any other designer fragrance you grab from the shelf; boring. It reminds me of so many fragrances that it makes it blatantly without a personality, void of any interest aspects.

After dry down, the fragrance becomes a little dirty and herbal, like that of black tea. I don't detect any vanilla, but maybe just a little creaminess from the orris. This is an aged fragrance that doesn't suit its release date, 2015. I wouldn't be surprised if Elizabeth Arden or Estée Lauder had something similar.

[...]

That's it, that is all that I had written.

Baking in the magic forest
I'm not a reieselustig, but a side trip to Iceland I would like to dare to walk in the footsteps of the elves and trolls.

I'm sure the soft Bois Sensuel will show me the way to the tempting forest bakery, where the gnomes eagerly bake magic cookies.

A vigilant shrew monitors her do -and d´sie adds a handful of stardust to the wooden bowls here and there.

A chubby troll eats a cookie - turns ad hoc into an attractive prince a la Tom Hiddleston - and gallops on his snow-white grey horse towards an enchanted castle in the fog.

I taste the biscuits, too, and I'm as beautiful as Snow White.

My fiery black horse outstrips the Beau - because I want to be in front of him on the fairytale castle, and receive him with my endless hair and wrap him up.

Patchouli and vanilla will bewitch Tom - and the iris will make him willless.

What a beautiful birthday !

Beautiful cuddle and winter scent
I discovered this perfume through my mother and got to know it. She knew that I love vanilla fragrances and ordered me a bottle because it was on offer. She bought it for me because I passed my exam and got a good report card. When I got this perfume I was very happy about it and opened it and sprayed it on my scarf and very lightly on my wrist. On my scarf you could perceive it better and stronger it smelled very creamy, smoky and vanilla. On my skin it smelled very spicy at the beginning after about 2-3 minutes, then one smelled the vanilla which was very present and pleasant. Patchoulie I took the time then also more clearly on my skin. I took Iris I then completely, completely easily perceived which one smelled only with light body contact. For me this fragrance is very successful and also very good! It also brings a bit of Christmas atmosphere which makes this fragrance even more pleasant and beautiful:). In winter I wear it very often because it is well suited. I also used it once in summer because I missed it very much and on warmth this scent reacts very strongly not in the negative sense but in the positive (for me anyway) it is more present and it sticks then also very on the skin and it holds better. I got many compliments for this perfume because it spreads good mood. My last words about this fragrance I think men can wear this fragrance very well because it is not so feminine. What do you think of that?
