I'll carry you anywhere....
About the fragrances of LV I have not only positive can write. There are just always such and such.... But the Sur la Route I found from the beginning great, delicious, wonderful. The fragrance is not really new. Maybe even quite profane, simple.
As the TV chef would say at such moments: simple food always tastes especially good, if only the ingredients are of the highest quality! That could apply here too.
Sur la Route I have now for some time and it has also taken some time until he came so really good with me. What makes him so special for me?
I'll start at the back: the bottle is simple but beautifully shaped and I love the rather heavy cap that reliably closes magnetically. Great made. And of course the possibility to refill the empty bottle. Sustainable thought. Beautiful!
I guess the whole packaging kerfuffle around it is just part of this luxury brand. I do not need it, but ok, is just so
Now to the fragrance:
The beginning is quite citrusy, quite clearly hit citronate and bergamot through. But does not remain so for long. Quite quickly comes the grass note, which I find very nice, it makes the fragrance somehow calm. And he is thus no purely typical citrus fragrance but in detail already more than what you know so in summer fragrances.
Summer fragrance? Is he for me anyway not 100%. I even find that S.l.R. can be sluggish almost 365 days. Times a few really cold days excluded. Since it must be then but a little more Bums.
Very light pepper (if it were too much pepper, I would not like it either), nutmeg and not least the light musk note make it the universal fragrance. Very elegant, but still wearable in leisure to everything. Quiet but always present, adult but not stale.
If I had to compare it with a car: the Range Rover among the fragrances. I can drive up to the opera with it and offroaden the next Saturday, he does everything with and still looks damn good. OK price-wise, both are also placed in the upper league. But all in all I think it's worth investing here! It's just all very well tuned and I imagine that everything is also mixed quite high quality.
In my short statement I described a scene in Italy. Still fits today. But I would say the Sur la Route is a globetrotter. No matter where you are, the Sur la Route always fits. Whether on the sunny Amalfi coast, in sultry China or in cool Scandinavia
Thus, I will probably continue to wear him very very much. No matter where and when and how often. Empty will be filled. For sure.

In search of the perfect......
Shelter Island has been with me for quite a while. I have always liked him but sometimes it just needs something to experience the (really) good sides of fragrances or better to smell.
The last few days were blessed with changeable spring weather. Sometimes too cold, sometimes too quickly fiercely warm. Windy and wet dry. It's been everything.
I have, as soon as it has temperatures above 15 degrees, no longer want heavy, sweet, burdensome fragrances. The back then in the closet quickly to the back and the front places take all the bergamot, neroli and other light freshness representatives. You know that certainly ......
But just in such a "today so, tomorrow completely different" weather I am then undecided whether the light midsummer fragrance is enough.
In principle, already out of desperation, I have therefore reached again and again to the Shelter Island. But from desperation became more and more a kind of affection, finding that also fits today the Bond, which already works so great yesterday and has brought me the whole day a nice light breeze around the nose.
Shelter island is for me a perfect balance of fresh aquatic notes, beautiful woods that don't weigh too heavy and a lily that fits in soooo perfectly, almost slightly rose-like.
It is for me no Mediterranean Aquate but rather a robust Atlantic or North Sea breeze, which was captured here. Just not softened but with a strong wind that brings me the salty water to the coast and whose spray sticks in the nose.
It is the blooming coastal area all around with forests and flowers, which combines with the coming from the sea to a finely tuned air-scent mixture and immediately transports me mentally to this place. Sitting on the cliff overlooking the open sea and rustling trees behind me.
And it is this light but still perceptible Oud portion, which makes the fragrance just also for temperatures below 25 degrees for many weeks in the year so great usable.
Shelter Island will certainly never be a mainstream fragrance that gives the basis for umpteen imitators. But that's what I love about fragrances like this. Also times to be different and to be different. And yet wearable and not too much niche.
In short: in my search for the perfect "between seasons" scent, I got stuck with Shelter Island. I will use it certainly still far into the summer often and then also to the autumn, when the golden October brings once again beautiful sunny days.
Who is looking for an independent Aquaten with great endurance, should definitely stop here and test. Maybe you will then find yourself on the cliff and dream into the day again
