Cucumber salad, deodorant spray and sun cream
Piqued my interest several times, never captured my heart. I was curious from the first announcement online. But the notes and comments couldn't get me. I wanted to find out for myself. Ordered a bottling and never dared. Went to the store and tried it on paper. Couldn't convince me. But I wanted this fragrance. With this beautiful theme and this artistic drawing.
Shortly before the blind purchase, I tried the dragonfly again.
The opening is off-putting. It has the same effect as the ubiquitous deodorant sprays that stick to women in particular and I regularly wish that I could smell the odor of sweat instead of this olfactory rape. Somewhere between synthetic lemon juice, sun cream and something indefinable. I look down at my arms in disgust as they emit this infernal agony, hoping that it will get better and imaginatively wiping the scent off all lists. A tear wants to form; I won't let it.
The nightmare fades and becomes more tangible, more bitterly citrusy and transparently aquatic greenish. There's a hint of cucumber salad in the air. I somehow wish the 2019 Dodo (2019) was back. Melancholy.
My thoughts are spinning. What is that? What does it do to me? And how the heck does it get to me?
Little wisps of deodorant spray keep coming into my nose and I want to cry. Everything else is just somehow.
Somehow green, somehow flowery, somehow light, somehow exhausting, somehow quite pleasant. But only somehow. And somehow also to get used to. Thanks to deodorant spray.
And in addition to deodorant, grapefruit and cucumber salad, sun cream also shines through. I get a slight Seahorse vibe but very lightly. The most pleasant part, although quite a disappointment, was still acceptable for me. Creamy rice, watery flowers, green-creamy something or other round off the experience. Yet the reinterpretation of Dragonfly in greener, more intensely watery and less creamy and citrusy notes could be so much more exciting and more zoologist. Impressively off-putting. Hyrax is downright enlightening in comparison.
So, ladies and gentlemen, I was spared what was probably the biggest disappointment of all my blind purchases.
