...so boring...

*Cue up The Price Is Right losing horn*

I received a mini of this and immediately put it on this morning, after I had already sprayed a subtle amount of Les Nuits d'Hadrien. I thought the conditions for which to wear either citrus scent were perfect; it's about 90°F right now. I was reminded of my former love of all things hesperidic. There was a time I would have loved to possess a bottle of Sel d'Azur. That love was modified and shaped by perfumes like LNd'H and Eau des Merveilles. Sel d'Azur is boring.

Is Sel d'Azur bad? Absolutely not. I'm wavering between 'like' and 'ok'. It hasn't changed in the last four hours. It smells like tart citrus with a woody base. It hasn't budged one bit and I do not think that's a bad thing. However, I've been exposed to other, more complex hesperides and, sadly, I'm no longer enchanted by this. I'm certainly not enchanted at their asking price ($55 for 1 oz).

Maybe I'll grow to enjoy this mini. Chances are good, though, I'll forget about it and eventually pass it along to someone who will love it more.

Wish it had more oomph

With Nouveau Genre and Sable Fauve in my collection, I am excited to try other fragrances from Yves Rocher.
They have changed a lot since I tried them first many years ago.
Sel d'Azur has a fresh marine opening with citrus at the top. Soon the fragrance loses its airiness and becomes a citrus aromatic. Which citrus? Do not ask me, Sel d'Azur is one of those fragrances where the notes are undefinable.
According to Fragrantica, the top note is grapefruit, at the middle is Virginian cedar and at the base, Haitian vetiver. Do I smell cedar in particular? No. Maybe vetiver? No, not really. The fragrance is just an accord of freshness, citrus, slight aromatic and woody notes.

I sprayed some more and now I get the grapefruit, but it is fleeting. Sel d'Azur alludes to summer, it really is a fresh and beachy scent, I just wish it had more power. The longevity is poor and the sillage very intimate.

If I could be very critical, I would wish for a more juicy grapefruit and a more prominent vetiver or cedar, one or the other would suit me fine, I just need a fragrance to be more charismatic than this.

Do not get me wrong, it is nice, but it's lack of charm is what makes this fragrance nothing more than "nice".

Oceanic feelings

While "tasting" the new Rocher fragrances I got stuck interested in sel.

Of course you can't smell salt - but I still had the idea of being close to the sea.
At the sea I also mean to enjoy the salty air.

And Sel d`Azur has an aquatic effect on me and the citric notes make it very refreshing.
The Vetiver adds something sweet and grounded at the same time.

A successful combination - reminiscent of a walk on the beach.

The scent leads me to the deserted beaches of Calabria - because it also conveys vastness and peace.

Just sit in the sand, look at the sea - and believe between two heartbeats - now peace reigns

Nordic freshness

When the summer was at full throttle again in mid-September, we were finally allowed to go to the far north again, more precisely to St. Peter-Ording. Our May holiday had fallen victim to the Touri Sperre of the federal state and so we enjoyed every day the more at the sea. We have loved the place for decades.

Now I have a favourite spot with the Westerhever Lighthouse in front of me. That's the one with the two little houses next to it. Salt marshes in front and a small harbour. In autumn there is always a beguiling scent of beach asters blowing over there, which mixes with the spice of the herbs of the salt marshes and the smell of the fresh sea. Tender and a little bit tart, not as beguiling as the rape in May. In addition, the vastness and a great deal of distance to people and in the middle of nature.

Again here, at the post office an offer from Yves Rocher . Actually, I haven't had it lately with Uncle Yves descendants. Too much I miss some things that made the company great for me. But that is another matter. I stumbled upon the offer of Sel d`Azur and the pyramid agreed with me. That could be something for me. If not, it could be for my daughter. Ordered and the package arrived.

With mixed feelings I tested the blind purchase and this time I was very pleasantly surprised. The beginning was citric and fresh, but not like Spüli. Then flowery and tart notes were added and with the freshness of the beginning just beautiful. A little salt was added and eyes closed: I was back at my favorite place on vacation. Even after about 3 hours, which is a rarity at YR lately, the scent was still there. It was very delicate, like when you leave the sea.

This time a very successful fragrance, which I find a little too fresh for autumn and winter to wear. But with it I can put myself in my favourite place in the far north at any time.

Lemony-fresh? Lemony-fresh!

Oh God, how long have I been looking for a lemony scent! So someone who still smells like lemon after an hour! I honestly said I gave up hope after a lot of "I got him now!"... "Don't sigh, sigh". Then don't! Don't be. There are more important things in life. Y R I had actually already sworn off. Promises too much without keeping it. Not natural cosmetics, pfff. But in Munich, in the pedestrian zone is just such a tiny Yves Roches. And it was just my last working day before my vacation. In my opinion, the most beautiful day in working life: the last working day before holidays. Two weeks vacation ahead of me. High spirits. And there I am again into the Y R. Just quick to the scents. Had a feeling... Well, there they are, the scents. And for each fragrance, a brief description. "Flowery", "Oriental", etc. and just at Sel D `Azur: "lemony fresh". Hmm. All right, then. First on the test strip. Wow, it's really lemony! All right, I dare. Spray it on your wrist. And I have to say, I really like it! I can still smell lemon after 1 hour and even after 2 hours. She's getting softer, possibly soapier? But not bad. I'd say it's suitable for everyday use. Or even suitable for holidays? after some time something joins the lemon. Maybe the Virginia cedars? Or the Haitian vetiever? I might. I can't tell you because I don't know what those scents are. But I like them. I bought it then and would like to apply it on my city trip to Hamburg. He's so unobtrusive. So fresh. Then I was only curious how the remainders of the perfume on my jacket would smell the next day. Cause I don't like it when there's a stale smell the next day. But no, the "blue salt" can also score here. Only a slight pleasant touch remains. So in summary, I can say it's a fresh lemony everyday scent. No more, no less. He's hardly changing. Just kind of softening up. With pleasant silage. "Lemony-fresh"! On to Hamburg, with Y R in the luggage!!!
