Requiem Of Lost Memories Jean Poivre

... on my boat, which I have anchored between the islands off Pula, I let the sun shine on my chest and the salty aquatic breeze coming from the sea caresses it. Next to me stands a cold lemon tea with a few slices of lemon. I’m having a nice, quiet day.

Upon applying this fragrance, the first thing that hits the nose is a citrusy aquatic note. Here, a delicate salty accord comes in from behind (even though it’s not listed in the fragrance pyramid). This is followed by a bitter note and a slight spiciness from the pepper. The perfume is rounded off with woody accords and a creamy freshness from the neroli and musk.

The longevity and sillage are good.

This is a lovely fragrance that can be worn well from spring through summer to autumn. I see this perfume as an all-rounder that can be worn for any occasion.

Anyone who enjoys wearing a light aquatic fresh slightly salty fragrance should turn to the Dutch, who have once again created a fantastic scent.

There are days when you like to be inspired by the Parfumo Assistant when choosing your fragrance of the day. A useful gadget, especially when you can include all your samples. Last Monday, I was recommended, among others, Requim Of A Lost Memory.

It generally fits quite well for summer, but unfortunately, the scent is just not for me. The first association regarding color in combination with the olfactory impression from the spray nozzle leans towards glass cleaner. When sprayed, you can at least perceive the citrus notes more clearly, particularly in the first seconds a pleasant bitter orange, which shortly thereafter comes across as quite aggressive and then synthetic.

Also, what one would describe as aquatic leaves rather an unnatural undertone. And unfortunately, it continues like this. The individual components cannot be easily separated, which does not have to be a flaw, but above all, there is a spirit of rather inexpensive ingredients. No wonder that the term "drugstore scent" is already mentioned in a statement, as I felt the same way about ROLM.

In principle, nothing really objectionable, but with a price of over €150 for 100ml, the bottle, no matter how attractive it is here, just doesn’t make up for the boringly generic scent.
What a shame for the more or less lost day - I would have preferred to spray something else instead.
