What am I actually wondering about? After all, it’s a Mugler. And Muglers all have one thing in common, whether you like them or not: they have an extraterrestrial quality.
So does this one. It has something of the fascinating swamps of shapeshifters, merging one with something that seems hardly nameable, having a boundless effect. Am I now one with a strawberry lake that is not made of strawberries, but is just a watery, distant strawberry image, almost from strange swamp strawberries, blurred, intangible, perhaps even consuming?
With my nose on my wrist, something extremely intensely foreign-fruity sets in, so foreign that I wonder how to put it into words and understand why some describe this scent as abhorrent. If I move my nose just a little further away, the shape has transformed: From olive-green swamp strawberries to heavenly light, gold- and pink-colored strawberries of a paradisiacal exoplanet, where everything is always friendly, always balanced, and always characterized by lightness. A place where there is no evil, fresh, buoyant, cheerful, delightful, otherworldly.
Then the same thing happens with figs, just temporally shifted and therefore overlapped by the exoplanet strawberries. The figs initially also grow in the swamp and at the same time ring in the heavens with lasting freshness towards bliss.
For many hours, I now find myself in this, my personal Star Trek episode. With Odo and other shapeshifters, and with Captain Picard and Beverly Crusher on the planet of blissful fruit freshness at the same time.
To stay sane, I have to do two things:
First, I need someone rational to bring me back to the terrain of the Starfleet. So I called Spock.
Secondly, I need a bottle of Womanity Eau Pour Elles. For that, I turned to Ninchen.
I bid farewell with thanks to Odo, Mugler, Captain Picard, Beverly Crusher, Spock, and Ninchen
and say:
Strawberries aren't my favorite fruit, and I really don't like them in fragrances. However, I really like your comment! If you enjoy strawberries in scents, you should definitely give Sådanne by Slumberhouse a try.
The decoration of the bottle definitely looks Klingon, but with the Mugler brand, I would rather think of the Ferengi. I find it original that they call the scent "Womanity ... pour Elles." It clearly signals to me that if I, as a man, try this fragrance, I’ll end up in a wormhole. So, have fun with it. DS9 trophy.
Since I often find myself in different spheres, I really enjoy comments like this. I also love the scent because of the sea water note. Womanity was one of the first to feature this note back then. Stellar trophy!
Well, with this comment, you've outdone yourself... What this Mugler does to you... I'm so glad my second bottle is so warmly received and cherished by you...
And being mentioned in the same breath as Spock fills me with deep pride!
Now I'll let you continue to revel in your watery, distant swamp strawberry lake and leave a blissfully grinning intergalactic trophy here :-) See you soon!
I didn't come across this one back then, and I haven't seen it here on Parfumo either. Probably not really my thing, but you have to give Mugler credit for cultivating a conscious kind of trash that I often really enjoy.
