More in love with shock than for a long time
I've just sold a large part of my collection, but I questioned whether it makes sense to have SO much (and there are people who have significantly more!). Ten fragrances are to remain, only when one is emptied may a new one move in. I'm curious to see how I can keep this up :D
I was rummaging around in my sample box with great interest a little while ago and came across the tester for this fragrance, which I got from Lubner in Hamburg in December. Sprayed it on and off I went on my "adventure".
The fragrance opens with lots and lots of dark oud. An explosion of spices that needs 2-3 minutes to settle. After that, however, the passion fruit quickly emerges in its most beautiful form. In terms of fragrance, it feels like wearing Ombre Nomade while eating a Solero ice cream. The fruity note is beautifully creamy and blends well with the darker notes. Leather and vanilla notes round off this fragrance. After a while, the fragrance loses its "in your face" and aggressive character from the beginning and becomes totally cuddly.
I can't judge the H/S yet, but it should be above average, so you can trust the reviews. Even though I'm already gearing my collection more towards spring/summer, this oud fragrance would still be worth considering. The next cold season is sure to come (or we're right in the middle of it :D).

Vanilla crescents on steroids
I bought the fragrance "spontaneously" at Alsterhaus after returning a gift so I could spend the money on something I really wanted. Smelled a sample and off I went.
The vanilla is above all else. At the beginning, for about the first 15 minutes, it seems quite synthetic, but then it turns into more natural aromas, I mainly smell cookies and croissants, some crumble cake or bee sting. It's wonderful, as vanilla is one of my favorite flavors when it comes to sweets. If you concentrate a little, you can also perceive the coconut relatively well, especially in the drydown.
H/S: Insane. I used four sprays, which was clearly too much, as I received comments directly from my girlfriend and her sister that the perfume was far too strong. so 3 sprays should be absolutely enough. We were at a birthday party with around 40 guests and several people spoke to me positively about the fragrance. There was (unfortunately) smoking in one of the rooms and yet I could still smell the fragrance after around 7 hours when we got home, as if I had just sprayed it on.
The Matière Première fragrance house flew completely under my radar until recently. I've already set my sights on the next one and just bought Falcon Leather, I'm very excited. The Vanilla Powder could become one of my favorites, but its "heaviness" makes it particularly suitable for the colder months of the year. I could also imagine using it in low doses in spring. A clear buy recommendation for anyone who likes sweet fragrances.
