Gelis

I sprayed on "Gris Charnelle" yesterday morning and walked around as a vegetable for the rest of the day with an overhang of celery. It wasn't until late evening, no actually at night just before midnight, that I unexpectedly got a breeze of a fruity floral and slightly powdery scent to my nose.

According to experience, this transformation into a then still pleasant or at least more pleasant fragrance goes faster in the following days, the nose apparently flits increasingly faster past the undesirable scents. But here what comes next is nice but still not so convincing for me that I want to spend more days with "Gris Charnelle".

Explicitly I would like to point out the durability: The thought to want to wear another fragrance in the evening, if you have sprayed GC in the morning, you should push aside.

Gris starts with me tart, a little scratchy and somehow cool. Slowly a light cream creeps up from behind. Without fragrance pyramid I would have guessed musk. But this way I suspect that amber plays a role here. And later, coolness turns to light warmth and spice. I can't think of floral at all. If I had to name colors for gris, I'd say gris starts with gray and runs out amber.

Gris is understated, elegant, goes with a pantsuit rather than a dress in my association. Lasts about 8 hours and is unisex wearable for my nose.

I can not really get excited about Gris

1.
Miss Dior 2017 has definitely nothing at all in common with the "Miss Dior (Eau de Toilette Originale) tested by me recently except the names.

2.
I noticed again how much I prefer lemon and/or mandarin in the top note than the omnipresent bergamot. And so I like the start of MD 2017, where the rose already makes itself felt in the background, very well.

3.
After 1 - 1 1/2 hours, my nose reports irritated, I already know the fragrance. Right, it reminds me of "La Vie est Belle L'Éclat L'Eau de Parfum" very fruity floral and sweet - red fruit jelly was then my association. Then with MD 2017, it's more of a fruit tea "red fruit jelly", is lighter overall. This fragrance moment also does not last sooo long, as the comparison fragrance of Lancome on my skin never ending. In other fragrances, I definitely like fruity-floral-sweet. What makes the difference, I have not yet found out.

4.
The base then doesn't quite replace the fruity-floral-sweet part, but it does capture it, adding woody and spicy notes. Something that the base of the LVEB L'Èclat does not succeed.

5.
The charisma of MD2017 is for me in the upper middle field as well as the durability with 7 - 8 hours.

Conclusion: goes so. Does not beat me into flight. But I definitely do not have to have.

Short comment:

Starts on the skin as if patchouli and plum were coked together in the pot. Since someone loved his daughter but not very, I think to myself. A perfumer had told me, Ms. Goutal has dedicated this fragrance to her daughter Camille. After fifteen minutes, I return to the "spray room" and .... Yikes! What is that?! The room smells delicately of juicy fruity plum with a bit of earth attached. That pleases me then, nevertheless, better.

Over time, the two approach each other and result in a mixture for me, but then I can not do much with. It is at the end, as if one had pushed the pot yet in time from the hotplate. Iris, violets and heliotrope must have disappeared so quickly that I didn't even get a hint of them

I'll say it right away: "Tag-Her Prestige Edition really pleases me in its floral unexcitedness, a floral fragrance for the winter.

The heart note is present from the start to the gently fading end with me. Whether it is orchid..., I had not yet a fragrant orchid under the nose ... In any case, it is a flower.

It is gently - I'll call it darkly spicy - powdered by the cinnamon. This takes her the possibly existing radiance, but also the possibility soapy and or pungent rumzubiestern. What flowers in general yes both quite can.

Vanilla and sandalwood then some cream and sweetness and a slightly woody note to it. Whereby I have really recognized the woody note only once, I have to bring the nose at the right time in the direction of the wrist.

The shelf life is good to very good, up to 10 hours can be that already. The sillage is medium strong. It starts with an 8 or 9 and then settles at a good 5 to 6. Say, you probably have to stand right next to me to perceive the fragrance, which currently happens not so often.

I think this is a successful winter-floral fragrance: flowery and warming
