Interesting wood
Wonderwood begins illuminatingly balsamic, striking - invigorating, aromatic - spicy and subtly citric - herbaceous.
I would like to express my sincere thanks to our perfume "reni379" and our perfume "Zirkeltanz" for the sample.
The first thing you can perceive is an intense balsamic note, which gives the top note, something very pleasantly illuminating, and is due to Somali incense.
At the same time, the incense is enveloped by a distinctive and also invigorating note and comes from Madagascar - pepper.
There is also a fine aromatic, very slightly spicy nuance, which underpins the pepper in a beautiful way and comes from nutmeg.
In the background, a slightly citrusy and also herbaceous note of bergamot can be perceived, which ensures that the top note does not appear dull but retains its "light aura".
This constellation is perceptible on my skin for 20 minutes before the heart note unfolds.
Now a very intense woody note can be perceived, which also brings a certain softness and is due to the cedar wood.
At the same time there is a fine smoky-sweetish, very subtle earthy nuance of guaiac wood, which gives the fragrance a pleasant tangibility.
These two notes are surrounded by a warming balsamic note, which gives the heart note a pleasant smoothness and comes from cashmeran.
There is also a fine greenish, subtly herbaceous nuance of caraway, which gives the fragrance that certain roundness.
The entire heart note is accompanied by a "pictorial" impression, which I attribute to the cristalons here.
The heart note is perceptible on my skin for 3.5 hours before the base asserts itself.
In the base a discreet flowery "aura" can be perceived, which has something "bright" about it and comes from Javanol.
At the same time, a fine creamy, subtly spicy nuance can be perceived, which melts with the Javanol to form a whole that provides something cuddly and comes from the sandalwood.
Never persistent, always "flashing" from time to time, there is a fine, smooth, reddish brown woody nuance, which also brings a distant leathery touch, which wonderfully underlines the interesting character of Wonderwood and this can certainly come from the Oud.
In the very background, the fine astringency of the vetiver rounds off the base wonderfully.
Altogether the fragrance lasts 7 hours on my skin.
The Sillage is designed to be clearly perceived at one arm's length for the first hour and then settles down so that you are clearly perceived at a quarter of an arm's length and this is maintained for 2 hours before it is reduced in slow steps until the fragrance finally fades away completely.

Grandma's cupboard
Cashmere Musk begins with a very familiar smell, which I absolutely do not like.
Some of you will certainly know the cheap liquid detergents and fabric softeners that can be found in any supermarket.
These remedies contain a certain musk compound that comes out when you wear washed clothes and sweat a little
A very clear, discreetly sweet and creamy note, slightly reminiscent of freshly washed laundry, is the first thing you notice, which even stings my nose a little bit and seems incredibly old-fashioned, when you really think that the dear grandma has just opened her old cupboard from the 18th century, which is filled with too many lavender bags.
1.5 hours later, the musk has shifted into the background, giving way to a warming, very subtle sweetish woody note.
I did not identify this note as an oud, but rather as a creamy, spicy sandalwood scent, which is accompanied by soft, woody cedar wood and a very minimal hint of vanilla.
In total the fragrance lasts 6 hours on my skin.
For the first 30 minutes the Sillage is designed to be clearly perceived at half an arm's length and then settles down so that you can be clearly perceived at a quarter of an arm's length and this is maintained for 3 hours before the fragrance becomes suddenly skin-tight.

Vintage VS. Current Formulation
The vintage version begins intensely tart - spicy, Mediterranean - herbaceous, but also subtly green.
The current version begins refreshingly Mediterranean - herbaceous, but also subtly spicy.
From the vintage - miniature - collection of our perfume "Zirkeltanz" I was allowed to choose some fragrances, where Cool Water was also among them and I would like to express my sincere thanks for that.
The first thing you can perceive in the vintage version is an intense tart and also very spicy note, which sets a strong and distinctive accent and is due to the coriander.
At the same time, this note is underlined by a Mediterranean, slightly herbaceous nuance and ensures that the striking aspect is enhanced a little more and comes from lavender.
In the background, a subtle greenish note rounds off the top note wonderfully and is responsible for the fact that the top note does not appear heavy but very pleasant and this is due to the rosemary, mint and green notes, which I unfortunately cannot name exactly.
In the current version, the first thing you can perceive is a light, already somewhat aquatic Mediterranean, subtly herbaceous note, which gives the top note something maritime and is due to the lavender.
This note is refreshed greenish and is responsible for the fact that the aquatic - maritime aura is pleasantly potentiated and comes from mint.
In the background a slight spiciness can be detected, which gives the top note a certain substance and comes from the coriander.
Unfortunately I could not perceive the green notes and the rosemary in the current version, but I can well imagine that these notes were used as support.
The top note of the vintage version is perceptible on my skin for 25 minutes before the heart note unfolds.
The top note of the current version is perceptible on my skin for 15 minutes before the heart note unfolds.
Now the vintage version has a fine creamy and also spicy note, which gives the fragrance that certain something and is owed to the sandalwood.
This note is accompanied by a fine floral note of the rose geranium and ensures that the fragrance acquires something "light" without diminishing its substance.
And yet, there is also a sweet floral note that is responsible for the heart note being lifted a little into the air and comes from jasmine.
In the far background there is a discreet sparkling floral note, which rounds off the heart note wonderfully and comes from Neroli.
In the current version, the first thing I notice is the creamy, flowery note of the rose geranium, which is underscored by the slightly spicy sandalwood.
Also, in the current version, the jasmine has been used as an "air lifter", although in the current version it appears stronger.
So you could say that the heart note of the vintage version focuses on sandalwood and the current version on rose geranium and jasmine.
Unfortunately, I could not notice Neroli in the current version, but I can well imagine that it was only used as support.
The heart note of both versions lasts 4 hours on my skin before the base asserts itself.
Both fragrances "meet" in my opinion in the base, because for me there is no difference, but a very discreet.
The vintage version has a very bright, mossy characteristic, which can only come from oak moss and gives the fragrance something pleasantly "masculine - soft", which appears a little "less" in the current version, but which can really only be detected with the help of coffee beans for odour neutralization.
Both versions have a "dense, filling" aura, which ensures that the fragrance does not drift off into the trivial and is due to the tobacco.
At the same time, the oak moss is accompanied by a very gentle, almost fragile wooden note, which is responsible for the fact that the scent is simply pleasant and is due to the cedar wood.
These 3 notes are enveloped by an enveloping, soft, sweet-spicy nuance, which provides a beautiful tangible depth and comes from amber
Around the whole base hovers a very clear, very discreetly sweet fragrance, which is not at all reminiscent of freshly washed laundry, but rather I have the feeling that the note of musk, the remaining notes support and let it fade away pleasantly.
If I had to compare the Vintage version with the Current Formulation in percent, I think we have a difference of 35%, which for me proves once again that a reformulation can succeed quite well and also acceptably.
Altogether the Vintage version lasts 7 hours on my skin.
Altogether the current version lasts 6 hours on my skin.
The Sillage in the Vintage version is designed from the outset to be clearly perceived at three-quarters of an arm's length, and this is maintained for 3.5 hours before it is minimized in quiet steps until the fragrance finally fades away completely.
The Sillage in the current version is designed from the start to be perceived quite well at half an arm's length and this is maintained for 3 hours before it is reduced in leisurely steps until the fragrance finally fades away completely.
My evaluation, classification and statement refer to the current version, of course.
