What would a world be like where good is simply good?
Just imagine the following! You don't need much imagination, I promise! Picture a young guy wanting to make his dream come true. He probably takes out loans and puts everything on one card. He briefs a great perfumer about what he wants. He doesn't aim to reinvent the wheel. He delivers solidly. And everything that is evaluated - is just the scent. Wouldn't that be a dream?
And since I am a dreamer, I have maximum respect for the courage to put something like this into action, and I truly wish him success - that's exactly what I do. I evaluate exactly what it's about. Not the person behind the brand - just the scent.
Fovere really doesn't reinvent the wheel. Yes, it has similarities to XXI: Art Deco - Blonde Amber. Yes, it may not be a creative high-flyer. But to call it a dupe - is simply untrue. Fovere may be similar - but it is not the same. It doesn't have that tuberose. It starts off more flattering. It is significantly more affordable. No, it is not a copy. The rum is beautiful. The lavender is not annoying. It is well made.
Sillage & longevity are really maximally solid for me. I think Carbonnel has done a great job here. The scent has a beautifully resinous warmth. For me, it is the perfect companion for autumn and winter. I can also imagine Fovere very well on cool summer evenings.
In short, in a perfect world - one would consider the scent itself. And it is great. I have just XXI: Art Deco - Blonde Amber on my left arm and Fovere on my right. Yes, both are buddies - but not blood-related.
I really like the scent a lot and I can only wish the young fragrance house the best.
In a perfect world - this will be a success story. Call me naive and rosy-eyed - but in my world, a good perfume - is simply a good perfume.

Auch ich bin überzeugt, dass " noch " ein neuer Nischenduft, gerade bei diesem doch riesigem Angebot immer ein Wagnis sein kann. Der Fovere wird gerade von mir getestet.
Jetzt ist schon festzustellen... ein gelungener Nischenduft mit Alleinstellungsmerkmal und einer gewissen DNA , was bei dem Parfümeur CC aber auch verständlich und nachvollziehbar ist.
LG
