Funny nose?
Another comment on "Trésor", is it necessary? That's debatable, but I'd love to know what you think about my experience with this fragrance. It is a current one, not a vintage scent. Unlike many others here, I was not influenced by the 90s or anyone else. So I approached "Trésor" with an open mind.
Sprayed on as discreetly as possible, I perceive neither apricot nor peach blossom in the top note, no fruit at all. And also no sweetness. Rather something green, which I simply attribute to the (green?) Rose petals. But there's more, something tart, almost unpleasant. Are the lilies of the valley already coming through? I actually like them ... After a few minutes, I detect a subtle haze of rose that seems to hover over the other notes. Maybe the rose petals are not green after all ...
The heart notes are dominated by the tart green with rose accent, although it slowly diminishes and gives the floral notes a chance. The lily of the valley is joined by heliotrope, which makes the fragrance a bit more lovely. Sweet it is still not, but minimally powdery-soft and with a touch of cool vanilla, which fits well with the flowers.
The base note belongs to the cool vanilla, the tart green is now finally largely gone, the flowers can still be guessed. Company, but very shy, the vanilla gets from a musk note, something woody I smell not explicitly. Remains a discreet, cool vanilla note.
And now I ask myself: what's wrong with my nose? Or with my skin? I perceive the fragrance quite differently and find that a bit of a shame, because it is described here so beautifully and lovingly. To be honest, I don't like it very much. Now you might say: "Oh Mona, if you had tested it before". I have, dear ones, twice on a strip of paper. On the skin, however, not, I find with winter coat and scarf not so practical, otherwise the clothes smells the same. On paper it smelled similar, but not unpleasant, I thought it was interesting and fancy enough to buy this scent, I had a hankering for it. That's why I gave it several chances on my wrist.
But now it's sitting there, looking at each other a little sadly. I will probably give him away. The durability is pretty good, the next morning I still perceived the cool vanilla, and the sillage was also not bad. For my nose, however, it's not worth fighting through the rather unpleasant green to end up with a base note that's not particularly impressive.

Forever Boring, Never Classic?
Like all fragrances of Mexx, which I have so far sniffed, this has no great depth. Although a fragrance qualitatively and priced does not play at the highest level, it can smell good within this framework. And that does "Forever Classic Never Boring for Her".
The start is made by fruits, which are also indicated in the fragrance pyramid: juicy pear, fresh peach, fine tangerine. The black currant I do not smell out; but I can well imagine that it subliminally prevents the fragrance smells too sweet. He seems fruity-tangy and a bit fresh.
Quite quickly, the effervescence subsides somewhat, the fragrance becomes increasingly calm and gentle, minimally creamy, and you notice the floral notes. They are not penetrating, almost enigmatic, no colorful bouquet. The freshness still remains, but fades steadily.
So far, until the fragrance is only slightly woody, very quiet, the floral notes are only to be guessed. Fine sandalwood and soothing musk I smell, the chocolate not. But that is not further regrettable, for me, the fragrance also gets along without.
"Forever Classic Never Boring for Her" is a feminine fragrance, close to the body, not intrusive and therefore suitable for everyday use. Less benevolently, you could also say he is inconsequential. It's easy to find another one like it. I could even understand that. I'm not overwhelmed, but I also have no reason to gripe. After all, I knew what I was getting into with Mexx.
Once you have decided on the fragrance, you should put the bottle in your handbag for a long day, because after two to three hours the fragrance is gone. Already after one hour, he smells much weaker. However, the 15 ml bottle I have doesn't take up much space. The tester holds 30 ml, I didn't find this size on sale. Does not matter, I am satisfied with my small, pretty fragrance bottle
