Spring green cut at the barber's
So many good associations that went through my head in the reviews and statements:
What About Adam Eau de Toilette , green plum, "I smell summer",
From the Garden, green hedge, etc.
Everything I want in a spring-early summer fragrance at the moment.
After a very sweet, spicy gourmand winter, I am currently drawn away into the green, into the freshness of a clear summer day in meadows and forests.
So just make a blind purchase and hope!
Yes? Yes! Yes, different than expected, but soooo good.
Fresh green from the tomato leaf, unsweet plum, bergamot, basil, geranium flash out again and again and somehow make the fragrance tingle. Like the refreshing foam care at my barber (not the sticky woody monotony) no, my barber uses a fresh foam for skin care at the end.
This is how I feel with the scent: jogging through green, damp meadows in the morning, then a cool shower, groomed at the barber's and freshly dressed and ready for action.
Fresh, clear green, floral-citrusy speckles, simply and clearly balanced, far removed from toilet stone or room deodorant.

greetings from the 90s
Along with a new fragrance from the souk, I got a sample of
Gotique Island.
Many thanks for this to the great Souk partner.
A quick look, two short statements and average ratings.
So I sprayed it on myself:
The opening is fruity sweet canned fruit, no fruit stands out, everything is somehow rounded off with hints of the base or perhaps also the "solar notes". After around 20 minutes, the base of spicy patchouli comes in. Thank goodness without much vanilla. Nothing more happens. Solid, consistent fragrance progression.
A sweet fruit cocktail with a spicy patchouli base lingers for a good 8 hours.
The 80s-90s comparison fits well here.
To summarize: Solid fragrance from the last century. Anyone who misses these fragrances should find a worthy replacement here for little money.
An all-rounder all year round, not annoying, not in the foreground.
You can do it for the money, but you don't have to.
I don't have to.

Sacred green-smoky spice island
Somewhere on a spice island born by fire from the ocean, notorious for the best vanilla, you are standing in an old hut made of dusty wood. Wisps of spicy cardamom and powdery vanilla glisten in the air. In front of sacred idols, a fire of resinous holy wood burns and roasts dark cocoa beans.
The fragrance begins with an incredibly good green cardamom, with vanilla and spices slowly coming to the fore in the background.
Chocolate is interwoven rather unsweetly. The sweetness comes more from a powdery vanilla and velvety, non-spicy cinnamon with the most unflowery jasmine scent ever.
Everything is combined with a warm woody incense that is nobly sacred, but not strictly Catholic.
A great companion for the darker months of the year. It can be worn everywhere except for sports. Unfortunately, it is a little weak on the chest for long days.
Unisex gourmand with green cardamom. Silage and durability a little too high for the price.
Nevertheless delicious and smooth.

Maybach's family coach
I find it difficult to find a suitable entry point.
Somehow the question arises here: can we expect complexity from the fragrances listed? Admittedly, very few labels and perfumers give us a complete insight into their formulas, but the substances listed do arouse fantasies and associations.
Let's take
L'orpheline with two listed fragrances: Wow what a statement in clarity and yet almost defiant multilayeredness.
So yes: I expect a mature fragrance in such an intensively promoted fragrance and especially in this price range.
Plum can oscillate between sweet and fruity to spicy and intense. Fragrance notes between plum liqueur and sakura create olfactory landscapes.
Oud is such a diverse and fascinating ingredient, it fills spaces, fantasies and emotional worlds, it creates worlds between hot desert, raw sheep's tweed and animalistic richness.
What did I expect?
I was expecting something warm and sweet or fruity and woody.
Perhaps also maturing liqueur and perfumed raw wool.
What did I get:
A cloud of oud interwoven with floral, volatile plum.
Unfortunately, that's all I got.
Longevity is good average, sillage could definitely be more voluminous.
A fairly simple and wearable fragrance for spring and breezy summer days. An oud fragrance that is not offensive and is also suitable for "inexperienced" noses.
The glamor and exclusivity of a Maybach?
No.
Mid-range car suitable for everyday use:
Yes.

A little oud, a little warmth, a little little
My first encounter with a fragrance from "The House of Oud"
A dark evening, cool wind, I go for the first mulled wine of the year with the new
Golden Powder.
The perfect occasion for this fragrance.
No, this first fragrance date was not a success.
Friday, meeting friends for high tea, ok, we'll just try it again. Again, it was not convincing. What's going on here? Highly acclaimed and the pyramid pleases too.
Now it's Saturday lunchtime and he gets an intimate date for two in the reading chair: ok, I'll give it up.
To elaborate on the headline:
Yes a little oud, yes a little wood, yes a little sweetness, yes a few spices and a little powder.
But unfortunately, always "a little" is simply -too little- in the end
It lacks depth, it lacks power, it lacks volume and it lacks golden powder.
S/H bad for the brand and the bottle can't save it.
We will unfortunately go our separate ways. There are enough alternatives with this, actually great, fragrance pyramid.
For someone who is really, really careful with oud: yes, give it a try.
No more golden egg :-)
