Mrs. Zitrones and Mr. Leder's passionate dance

Half a year ago, I got to know this wonderful fragrance through a sharing. I was looking for a beautiful leather fragrance that wasn't too masculine.

When I first tested it, I was somehow disappointed. My first impression was of juicy, sun-soaked lemon, gently underlaid with tea and light flowers. The leather quietly joins in and grounds the bright lemons. A wonderful dialog begins between the light notes and the darker notes, which is always beautifully balanced and very harmonious.
The leather in this fragrance is not a light, tame suede. It is a little darker, you get the feeling that a little sexiness flashes through from time to time, but it never takes over or becomes too dark and dirty.

These contrasts and tensions between the clean-girl lemons and the femme fatale leather are a real joy. Invigorating, playful, neat and beautiful.

So why has it only just sparked between us?

At the beginning of the year, I had a huge appetite for fresh, citrusy fragrances and looked through all my small bottlings again and there it was again!
Sprayed it on and I thought: Wow this incredibly beautiful lemon that has absolutely no cleaner vibes, which usually bothers me with many citrusy scents. Then I noticed the leather much more intensely than when I first tested it when I was looking for a leather fragrance.

I also really like Wūlóng Chá Extrait de Parfum when it comes to lemon tea fragrances, but what I like so much about this one is that the leather creates a tension, the fragrance is not just well-behaved but has a little edge that makes it very special.

I think the fragrance is an absolute success, the bottle is a dream. On my skin, the fragrance lasts for 8 hours without any problems, on my clothes for over 24 hours. The sillage is very pleasant, not room-filling, not skin-deep. I was told that the fragrance is very pleasant at a normal conversation distance.

A very clear candidate for purchase at a fair price.

I see the fragrance on both men and women, with no gender bias. The fragrance is already man and woman in itself, leather and lemon.
I don't know whether the fragrance suits very young people, but I find it suitable from the age of 25 to the open end.
Due to its great balance, it suits me in every season. And it also works very well in the cold, I don't have any ashtray associations, as someone mentioned here.

Thank you for reading!
