Not exactly what it would like to represent

It's Sunday morning and I receive a phone call from a girl friend of mine who suggests we have breakfast together at the Biffi bar in the Galleria in Milan, I accept and after getting dressed I go to the appointment. I arrive early and order an espresso, but they bring me an American coffee. The aroma that is released is what you smell as soon as you spray Gallerie di Milano Fragranze. It's not a very intense type of coffee, in fact it seems diluted, but at least it's not sweet. After complaining to the waiter, I look around and perceive the scent of violets in the air and perhaps also the fresh, green scent of davana, coming from the vases that decorate the outside of the bar. A few minutes later my friend shows up, the smell of leather from her jacket reaches my nostrils before she can say hello. She sits next to me and I immediately recognize her iris-based scent, which mixes with the leather scent of her jacket. For the moment I have positive feelings with these perfumes around, but at a certain point, I feel that the friend is greeting a person sitting not far away, and that she approaches to introduce herself. It is my friend's aunt who saturates the air with the trail of her fragrance of which I pick up the notes of sandalwood and amber. The presence of her aunt lasted for a long time, so much so that my friend, annoyed by that perfume, sprayed herself with a patchouly essence, which I can barely smell because she is overwhelmed by the sweet notes I have mentioned before. At this point I get up and go where I can taste something that reflects my tastes. This composition, according to its creator, represents a glimpse of the Milan Gallery. I don't think he does it well.
