Soie Malaquais Dries Van Noten 2022

Marie Salamagne got the inspiration for the fragrance after wearing a silk dress in the brand's boutique in Paris, which is also how the fragrance is marketed, the salespeople claim it should feel like silk on the skin. And one thing about the fragrance, it is very feminine and sweet, even in the era of unisex fragrances I would say that the scent appeals more to women. Now I come to the facts and try to describe the fragrance now, this is not a beast mode fragrance it starts almost softly and for my taste rather quietly. It's like my first visit to Angelina (Cafe in Paris) in a beautiful setting in Rue de Rivoli and I try Montblanc for the first time (dessert with chestnut cream) and a hot chocolate! It's just perfect, the ambience is so beautiful and classic and it just smells like cocoa and candy! The fragrance is just as beautifully presented in this gorgeous looking bottle, it's fruity-floral, sweet, fluffy and gourmand! The longevity and silage are good overall! Now even though I like the fragrance and still do after a day when I sniff the tester, I didn't buy the fragrance, I just wasn't at Angelina in Paris but in Berlin Kurfürstendamm! There are many similar perfumes, especially many similar designers, minimal and remotely the fragrance reminds me of Hundred silent ways by Nishane! I was missing a spark of enthusiasm at the end, and it's spring in Berlin! Right now I don't feel like castany and vanilla in fragrances maybe next winter again!
