Karleidoscope Karl Lagerfeld 2011

Who doesn't know it? Being surrounded by a scent that is so gentle and really holds back with its revelation? Yet it presents itself beautifully and smoothly...

Karleidoscope is such a fragrance. A scent that wraps itself around the wearer, threading fine, barely noticeable sun rays through the skin. Today I am wearing a white dress that feels just as delicate on my skin as Karleidoscope. The wind flows through the dress, allowing me to be gently caressed by the freshly washed cotton fabric. A fine neroli scent caresses my nose, delights it, and I can't help but smile. My lips are subtly covered with a lipstick. I appear natural, and Karleidoscope makes that naturalness even more perfect. The scent is quiet. As quiet as my head today. I have switched to neutral. No hamster is running laps on its wheel. No worries. I am completely carefree today, filled with inner joy.

I’m relaxed, casually enjoying the day in the garden, sipping my first Hugo, and letting the sun shine on me. Wonderful! My friend is coming soon, and we’re going to spend some time in nature. My companion comes in the form of a TZ, as it fades away from the skin after a good three and a half hours. But I don’t mind, at that price! I’ll reapply a few times. The fine neroli scent really sets me up well for the day, and the fragrance has a glassy quality. Clear like a freshly washed wine glass. Subtle, fresh, and infused with a hint of coolness. Yes, that’s Karl. A white line runs through the black nothingness. I like that!

However, the coolness doesn’t last long, as it then develops in a highly sensitive manner. Finely powdered, underscored by a bitter note. Everything is very quiet and reserved. Then a little highlight emerges. Flowers. Also light again, not overwhelming. You can sense the violets. They slowly embrace the wearer and let them shine. Youthful is dear Karleidoscope.

Definitely suitable for the warm season. Surely excellent to wear on a walk in the woods or on the beach. It brings beautiful sun rays to my skin and into my inner self. Even the hamster in my head is lying in the corner, dozing away.

I let the images of the forest glide through my mind. The rays surround me, the leaves brush against my ears, and I sink into myself. It is gentle. Yes, very gentle. But very, very enjoyable.
