Green Lemon with Fittamihnbolln

Take a seat, Mr. Jeheimrat! Nice to see you have once again ventured into the old coriander ...
How is your esteemed well-being? Now that's something one likes to hear ...
And the esteemed Mrs. Jemahlte? Well, at home everything is healthy and we also have nice weather ...
As always? Fashionable? Shave to your liking ...?
But of course, but right away ... with coriander you will be served properly!
So, I will now carry out the usual procedure. First, the barber's apron ... there, once more around the neck ... fits.
Mr. Jeheimrat is wearing an extraordinary jacket today, linen, right? With silk ... it suits you remarkably well! So with that white shirt and the Panama hat ... you don't see men dressing like gentlemen anymore. And if they do, they usually splash some inappropriate sweet stuff all over their neck and face, Mr. Jeheimrat knows what I mean.
How do you like ...?
No, I can't start with that at all. I get goosebumps when some little man walks across the street and I still catch the sweet cloud of his perfume. That bothers me immensely. And then this stuff is also terribly long-lasting! It just won't wash off! If you shake hands with such a person, you also get his sugary brew on yours, and nothing helps except scrubbing with soap and waiting until the smell finally fades away ...
What do you mean, Mr. Jeheimrat?
Right, I must admit you are absolutely correct. There is a difference between a subtly sweet scent and a loudly sweet one.
So, now please bend your noble head forward ... just so, I want to get behind your ears too.
Yes, thoroughness is important.
Where was I ...?
Ah yes, the difference between subtly sweet and loudly sweet. You see, I recently read something by a person who shares his thoughts about perfumes. It was quite interesting, but unfortunately not as informative as I would have liked. I mean, it's nice when he writes about his associations when he smells a fragrance. But I really wanted to know how and what ... Yes, exactly! I completely agree with you, Mr. Jeheimrat. The most important thing about such a fragrance is what is in it and how it smells.
I did mention this to the gentleman. He was a bit taken aback. Fiddelwürts or something similar he called himself. Odd name, isn't it? But then he kindly said that I should try it myself to see how it smells. And after we chatted for a while, he said that he would delete his comment now so that I could instead share my professional opinion as a connoisseur. I found that quite noble!
I then looked up what all is in this fragrance. It was a very brief statement - tropical fruits. You can imagine anything or nothing under that, am I right?
Now I wanted to know exactly and had the gentleman send me a sample. So from the perfume, of course, not from the gentleman personally ...
How do you like it, Mr. Jeheimrat?
But of course, I absolutely wanted to sniff it to see if I only have strange images of Italian cities in my head when I try it ... No, I can assure you, coriander always keeps both feet on the ground.
So I applied the stuff with gusto on myself and was really curious.
I thought the goo should be quite nice, especially with the summer temperatures.
And what should I say - just like that it started with a green lemon. It's sour, even if no one really knows why.
Just a little joke, Mr. Jeheimrat ... So, now please don't answer, otherwise, I'll paint you with shaving foam in your mouth, and we both wouldn't want that.
You see, I'm already done. And now I'll go under your chin ...
Where was I?
Ah yes, sour lemon in green. I simply can't imagine it in yellow ... On top of that, there's something selected fresh, which is a bit cooler and harmonizes quite nicely with the lemon. I think it's lime ... But nothing can be found about the exact ingredients, not even on the Internet!
I have to figure it out myself again ... At first, I didn't sniff anything tropical.
No pineapple, no mango, and you know what? That is very sympathetic to me. I don't want to smell like a fruit basket full of sweet balls.
No, this fragrance remains pleasantly fresh and a bit dry for quite a while. So not juicy, but pleasantly sour, subtly but with good perceptibility, if you know what I mean. And underneath lies a dry note that tickles a bit far back in the throat ... Wonderful!
I see, Mr. Jeheimrat understands exactly what I want to express.
The whole thing is pleasantly fresh, without hitting you like a lemon lemonade. No, lemon cake doesn't fit either ... I can't find a comparison right off the bat. It's simply fresh, but not cold, pleasantly citrusy, but not sweet. And it definitely isn't. Just dry, but without being woody.
All this woodiness in perfumes lately can be a bit much, if you allow me, Mr. Jeheimrat. Too much is too much ...
Where was I?
Ah yes, woodiness. I had the suspicion that the green lemon and the lime would soon also be joined by neroli. Not so overwhelming, but still present. It rounds the fragrance, makes it cozy, somehow noble. I do like neroli!
Yesss, I can assure you - it stays like this for now. And then, when you least expect it, it happens. I would have never guessed. I was quite baffled! After a while of maybe two hours, a few of those Fittamihnbolettes passed by and caused a bit of a stir.
That makes a splash!
No, that's the beauty of it. This fragrance doesn't become sweeter because of that. Instead, it becomes really sprightly and cool. Quite fresh, as if they just picked this stuff from the tree. And the green lemon and the old lime and the neroli, they just stay there and don't go away. Even the dryness is still sniffable, and above that lies the whole freshness of the Fittamihnkens. That's really nifty!

Well, I agree with you, Mr. Jeheimrat. Yes, there is a little touch of melancholy. But that's the case with almost all citrus perfumes, that they don't last too long. Here with this fragrance, however, they still last at least five hours, and they do so firmly. I think that's enough ...
What do you mean ...? Ah yes, of course.
Lakwa is what they called it, Lakwa the Cologne. It's by a certain Riekardo Piatschentsa. And to avoid any confusion, they added that this stuff is called Pure Cashmere ... strange, because it has nothing to do with cashmere ...
No, you can't confuse them, I give you my word on that. It has a completely unique note. You can clearly sniff it out from many other lemon perfumes. Thanks to the Fittamihnbolln, which are stirred in there.

I just happen to have this fragrance here, which the kind gentleman generously let me have ...
Would you like to ...?
What am I even asking! I know the particularly good taste of Mr. Jeheimrat ...
So, I'll pour a bit on your neck and behind your ear ...

Well ...?
Do you like it?
I thought so!

Most heartfelt thanks, Mr. Jeheimrat!
Please honor me again soon!
And greetings to the esteemed Mrs. Jemahlte!

I've been wondering for a while now if Mr. Jeheimrat actually goes to Korianke for the haircut and shave - or is it more for the scent, ;-)...

Is the Korianke actually a pure Schäntelmänn barber? Otherwise, I'll go ahead and make an appointment there.

Well, if I may make a remark - anyone who likes "Italian Citrus" won't overlook the Piatschentsa either! I give you my word on that, as sure as my name is Korianke!

If you want to look at me like that, then it sounds a bit like a hassle to me. Not this time, my dear Korianke, don’t take it the wrong way, and say hi to the Vaehrte and also to the old Fiedelwörs. Oh, and yes: I totally agree with you on the woodiness!

As a Swiss (and therefore a dialect speaker), I'm thrilled with your coriander comments.

I think it might be a bit too lemony for me.

Well, Meester Korianke doesn't hold back, not even with such amusing writers like this quirky Fiddelwürts :-D. You've brought a smile to my face again, thank you!

*Fiedelwürts*, I'm cracking up :))) And that Lakwa is just another thing where "unfortunately we can't find any offers right now" is written.
Gotta ask Korianke again :))

@mydarkflower: Yes, I ran out of characters, but I fixed it by cutting down on several paragraphs. I hope the readability doesn't suffer from it...
