s'Mores
The peat fire burns comfortably, the smoky smell greets me as I enter the room. It's dark outside.
We've just come back to the cottage from a long walk.
I have slipped the wellies off my cold feet and am pleased that the feeling is returning to my toes.
There's a plate of marshmallows and butter cookies on the wooden table, with a bar of dark chocolate next to it.
With my fingers still clammy, I put a marshmallow on a skewer and stand close to the open fire. I hold the marshmallow over the flame.
My cheeks get warm from the heat of the fire.
The sugar caramelizes, a sweet scent spreads.
Blimey, now I've missed it. My marshmallow has turned quite dark in one place, the caramel now smells slightly burnt.
I quickly spread the now soft, creamy, roasted mixture onto a butter cookie and place a piece of chocolate on top.
Quickly into my mouth while it's still warm. I taste brown caramel and a little vanilla.
Relaxed, I sink into the armchair.
"Replica - By the Fireplace | Maison Margiela" is a fragrance for cold late fall and winter nights.
The smoky note is very pronounced, perhaps too strong for some, but I find it very beautiful and somehow cozy.

A walk through the bazaar
Oh - candied citrus. I buy myself a handful. Snacking, I go on, from one stand to the next.
When I pass the spice dealer, I notice that my fruits are already eaten up. Too bad, I would have tolerated more. Should I go back?
But the bouquet of scents here distracts me - everything mixes, nutmeg and clove, is there also cinnamon? The saffron threads glow red, I expect to perceive their dry, sweet-bitter smell, but they keep (unfortunately) too much in the background.
I stroll on, at the next stand incense is sold, incense and oud, balsamic scents rise to my nose.
Then I remember: I wanted to buy another small suede bag. I look around, but too bad, the dealer has already packed his goods and dismantled the stand.
Magnificently Dubai is a gentle, quiet fragrance - in contrast to other Orientals very suitable for everyday use. Perhaps this is the Western influence in Dubai, modern and quite cosmopolitan. An Orient-Occident blend, so to speak.
It is not too sweet, not too heavy and also goes in the office.
In any case, unisex.
The shelf life is good, with me around 6 hours.
En really good fragrance for a small price!
