Kickilotta

What a perfume !!!
For the first test, sprayed on a test strip, I smelled medicinal mouthwash ... um ... could that be? I sniffed further and a spicy fresh cherry emerged ... nice, but the mouthwash, I don't know.

The next day, the skin test. Still a hint of mouthwash ( oh no! ) However, as I continued to wear the fragrance, I realized that what I had perceived as mouthwash directly on my wrist sprayed a great minty freshness around me as sillage. Wonderful!
The "cherry liqueur" then joined in and I could really feel the fragrance. As the day progressed, a beautiful creaminess developed that radiated warmth and enveloped me. That was the first time I thought: this is like home! And that thought now hits me every time I wear this fragrance.

I have fragrances that carry me through the day, that make me taller, more attractive and more self-confident. I have a fragrance that used to walk next to me annoyingly like a nagging toddler when I wore it. And now I have a fragrance that makes me feel at home no matter where I am.

Definitely a very special, special fragrance, but in my opinion, not necessarily just for special occasions. I also don't find it particularly oriental. Longevity and sillage are very good, the bottle is to die for.

First of all: I like this fragrance!
It really opens like a bomb, an insane pear bomb. Fresh and juicy, it explodes on the nose, but then quickly fades away again.
In the middle section of the fragrance, a flower meadow follows, with a rather prominent note that - I admit - might remind you of a fabric softener. For me, it smells primarily floral and fresh and is perfectly okay for my nose.
And then ... a wonderfully creamy magnolia fragrance that lasts quite decently.
Longevity and sillage are okay for me, even if I find the fragrance as a whole and especially in the drydown rather skin-deep.
The remaining bottle from the sharing can therefore move in with me and will add a whole new nuance to my collection.

I was disappointed that this beautiful bottle would not be moving in with me.
It's a creamy fragrance that has nothing at all to do with coconut, Rafaelo or Bounty for me. To me, it smells like milk with a hint of vanilla. I wouldn't dare describe it as sour milk, but it really disgusts me after wearing it for a while.
The assumption has already been made here that the matured fragrance could smell significantly different to the freshly opened one. As I bought a sample in the souk that had certainly matured a little, my impression would support this theory.
So the 'white animal' and I are unfortunately not going to be buddies, despite its beautiful bottle and lovely name, which somehow also totally appealed to me.

I love, love, love him !!! And everything about him.
The fragrance is classy and elegant, but not over the top and suitable for everyday wear at any time. I love the fact that it was created in the 1950s and also that it was a tribute to Grace Kelly. Princess Gracia Patricia I love the bottle because it is just as beautiful, classy and timeless as the perfume.

I had to tell everyone around me this story. A little difficult with my 19-year-old son, because: "Who is Grace Kelly?" Puhhhhh. In his opinion, the bottle could have come from Harry Potter. Also good, yes, I can live with that. It wouldn't contain a poisonous or destructive potion, but definitely a healing or somehow enlightening, uplifting one.
For me, of course, the bottle still sits on a beautifully turned dressing table in an elegant woman's bedroom. Right next to the silver hairbrush and jewelry box.
Longevity and sillage could be better, but I can forgive it for that any minute. I just spray it again and enjoy the wonderful bottle again

Well ... I had imagined it differently. If I had bought it blind - as I had initially thought - I wouldn't have been disappointed, just surprised.
I had imagined it to be more gourmand and Christmassy, but well then.

The first thing I notice is a strong (too strong for me) wave of cadamom on a cloud of cinnamon. I don't like cardamom on my skin at all. Luckily for me, the wave didn't last long and what remained was the bergamot with a bit of spiciness ... whatever that might be ... maybe just my weird nose? I personally don't smell clove at all ... what luck. It becomes wonderfully soft in the dry down.

For me, this fragrance is warm, comforting, balanced, rounded, but not boring. I like it when fragrances develop on the skin. Longevity and sillage are good. Price / performance ... Xerjoff hold.
It's definitely on my wish list, and thanks to my wonderful 5ml souk, I can bridge the time until I buy it wonderfully
