Vive le Tour!
The greatest of the stage races,
Burning hearts a million times over.
Tourmalet, Champs-Élysée
and before that, the Galibier.
Alps or Pyrenees
Mountains, forests, villages, lakes.
On the pedals power full,
Stage finish, 2000 watts.
Snow-covered alpine grass,
long distances, a farce.
Allez, Allez in the peloton
and in front' "Attaque de Pierre Rolland!"
Heroes of many nations
are again fighting for the crown,
now climb in the cradle step
up the pass, a hell of a ride.
Expensive frames made of carbon,
not light enough, time is lost'.
At the end the winner wears yellow,
a stone falls from his heart.

Nut cake with vanilla cream
120 g butter
220 g sugar
4 eggs
150 g flour
130 g nuts (walnuts, hazelnuts or almonds finely ground)
60 ml milk or water
1 pck. baking powder
1 pinch of salt
100 g almonds slivers roasted
100 g whipped cream and a handful of iris flowers for decoration
For the cream:
1 pck. vanilla pudding
40 g sugar
200 g cream
1 pck. cream stiffener
400 ml. Milk
1 piece of vanilla bean
So, first the milk with the sugar...
Oh, oops! This is yes Parfumo and not Chefkoch.de! Since I have probably mistaken, how embarrassing...
Well, I do not need to wonder, because this fragrance makes me strong Christmas baking feelings arise. In my opinion, a gourmand through and through.
After the initial tangerine, the scent transforms into an impossibly powdery, creamy vanilla-iris blend that is later joined, barely perceptibly, by some leather. This combination is so delicious that my wrist developed an almost insurmountable attraction to my nose after spraying it on. Warning: Makes addicted to regular consumption, not cool Valentino!
Well, all kidding aside, for someone who likes sweet scents, Uomo Intense must be the non plus ultra. I was rather averse to this division of perfumes until recently, but this one has converted me. It doesn't seem at all sticky or penetrating like most other gourmands, and that's despite having above average longevity and sillage. Rather subtle, upscale and a little luxurious, which is probably thanks to the iris. Perfect for going out or in the leisure.
I have hereby found my winter scent and now enjoy my nut cake with vanilla cream. By the way, you can find the complete recipe for this at this address: http://www.monika-triebenbacher.de/2015/12/nuss-torte-mit-vanillecreme/

No scent to write fairy tales about...
but a rock-solid everyday scent that floats fully with the current of time.
Actually, I am someone who likes to write stories about fragrances and let them take you on a journey, but this one just doesn't work. The scent is about as straight as a broomstick and when reading the scents you feel as if you have just taken half a box of Hoggar™ Night.
Many are now shouting "Boring!", and they are right, because they are perfume lovers with a "exquisite SCREENMACK", who probably get drunk with Andy Tauer every day. They say he's copied "How can you find something like that? Ew! Yuck! No way! 1 star!"
In reality, however, things look different. Most people don't care about the rarity or the uniqueness of a fragrance, but just want to smell good for half a day and Explorer is perfect for that.
Fruity-fresh with some smoke and vetiver for the character, super shelf life and Sillage.
Your friends like it
Your parents like it
Your dog likes him
and Chantal from the secretariat likes him ;)
only you don't like it because your ego won't let you

I get seasick.
No, really. I'm on a large container ship in the middle of the Indian Ocean, leaning against the railing, it's midday in midsummer. We have only loaded watermelons. With the rough swell last night, some fruits have taken damage. Their juice is now dripping out of the hundreds of containers behind me and turns into a thick syrup in the sultry summer heat.
I look down the steel side of the ship and stare far below me into the passing ocean. Dark turquoise, cloudy and mysterious he looks at me. A crusty layer of salt, algae and all kinds of seaweed has formed on the edge of the ship. The musty-marbled scent of this mixture paired with the juicy melon-soaked sea breeze rises in my nose. The situation is somehow romantic, but also somehow oppressive.
Full of power the foamy waves travel along the ship and make it sway. My stomach is getting a little queasy. I probably shouldn't stay so far away from the edge of the ship. I want to go ashore again.

Armani's Italian Garden Art
Eau d'Arômes got my attention first and foremost because of its beautiful bottle. So simple and yet so elegant. Especially the deep orange has done it to me. One likes to have something like that standing right at the front of the chest of drawers!
The fragrance is more for warm days, but could also be worn in winter, especially because there is something spicy about it besides the juicy, ripe tangerine. And that's what makes him interesting. Not only does it bore with the 0815 standard citric, which offers countless other summer scents, but it also has other ingredients that make it appear warmer and a little darker without losing its freshness.
Whenever I smell Eau d'Arômes I have to think of a small, shady path in an overgrown Italian park, at the end of which stands a gnarled, old pine tree, rough rocks and the Mediterranean in the background. I can't say why I have exactly this picture in my mind, but I just can't get it out of my head. Well, I think this mediterranean scenery fits very well to the fragrance
Unfortunately, the fragrance has a very unpleasant, heady acidity in the early stages, which I attribute to ginger. Fortunately, this note disappears after an hour and a half to two hours and it continues pleasantly.
By far the biggest shortcoming of this fragrance is the weak sillage, after 3 hours you have to reach about 10 cm to smell anything at all. Actually very, very bad for such a beautifully composed fragrance. Giorgio, that was almost a bull's-eye!
