Poisson Absolú
I probably belong to those who have a very unusual skin chemistry, and usually, this works to my advantage because even the most inconspicuous scents can turn into true proud swans on my skin, and no one would recognize them. But this time, it went thoroughly wrong, or rather, into the fish scales.
Inspired by an acquaintance for whom this creation smells truly enchanting, I boldly ordered a small bottle of it online. Until now, my personal scent sense has never let me down with perfumes that could suit me....
But there’s always a first time for everything.
I almost feel sorry to present this perfume as so one-dimensional as it unfolds on me, but it starts on my skin with a "tiny hint" of fruity sweetness (the fig aroma), which then quickly makes its exit, leaving room for fish smell.
Fish in the top note, fish in the heart note, and fish in the base note.
However, since I don’t give up easily, I tested this little water for a few days, and it was also worn during my university outings. After a classmate whispered to me today that I might want to eat a little less fish during the week, I did something I have never done with a perfume before. I stopped by my acquaintance's place - where it evidently unfolds wonderfully - and passed it on to her. Unwanted (gift) scents may still exist in my home as a kind of bathroom decor, and from time to time, I test them again to see if my perception has changed, but with Womanity, that was unfortunately not justifiable, despite the generally decor-friendly bottle.
What a pity. It just wasn’t meant to be.
