So it's time for me to write a comment...
I've been circling around the scent for a long time.
It was nothing that I thought would fit my taste! I thought...
And now I can't live without it!
Not just me! My surroundings too!
My affair with the black devil started quite innocently...
A spritz on the wrist at Douglas... That’s when it grabbed me!
Like a drug! Nose constantly back to the wrist!
I waited to write this comment until I was sure of what I could say about it...

At home: Can you wear that chocolate scent today? It smells so pleasant!
At work: Someone here is wearing a damn good perfume today!
Surroundings: Who smells so good here? So aphrodisiac? So pleasant?
Compliments don’t come often.
People don’t dare to admit what they are thinking about the scent.....
How do I perceive it? As a wearer: chocolatey, vanillic, a bit sweet, with a slight citrusy, green freshness.
The scent gives me personally confidence, security but also provocative cheekiness..
It changes my perception of the world.
Makes me more self-assured, bolder, more daring!
The black devil doesn’t suit every woman!
If a woman embraces it, she will be rewarded!
But she also has to be able to handle the consequences: many looks...many sniffing noses...constant presence!
It’s not a wallflower scent...just: Here I am! Scent. Without compromises!
Expects the wearer to have a corresponding wardrobe!

Longevity is grand. My skin smells for 10+ hours! Clothes for days!

Sillage: I perceive it as close to the body, smelling only lightly, unobtrusively!
Completely different in the surroundings....about 1.5 meters (tested after 4 hours...):-)
Preference: cooler seasons.


I believe that with this devil, skin chemistry is extremely important! This is the prerequisite for a successful interaction! This also explains some negative perceptions and comments.
Black Orchid chooses its wearer!

As for me, I am addicted to the scent!
I’ve tried wearing other fragrances in between...unsuccessfully!
My beloved scents suddenly seemed so imperfect to me...

Help, I am lost!
I have signed a pact with the devil!
At least for the cool season!:-)

Magnolia sensuelle is my latest discovery..
After years of consuming Coco Mademoiselle, it was time to try something new... The problem is, it's difficult to find something new that is just as good....(sillage and longevity).
I had never paid attention to the brand Bvlgari until now...until now!
In December, I browsed through the new releases and there it was...a potential purchase candidate :-)
According to the listing, everything I love...
The dry spell was long until I could finally test it...but the wait was worth it.
For me, it is a citrusy-woody-powdery all-rounder.
It is a somewhat more private scent...indeed sensual :-)
You have to come a bit closer...but then everyone asks what you smell like.
People perceive it as fresh, deliciously lemony, and incredibly pleasant.
It also reminds me of Allure Blanche by Chanel that my husband owns, but without being soapy.
Vanilla in this fragrance is also not sweet, which I find fantastic.
I have the feeling that the industry is launching sweeter fragrances all the time... At some point, we will choke on sugar shock :-)!
Not every woman has to smell sweet like the wearers of La Vie Est Belle...nor should the entire space take up an obnoxious amount of room..!
It can also be done with still, cooler elegance and a bit more privacy.
The scent also has good sillage (about 1m), lasts on the skin for a long time (about 8 hours for me), and becomes more intimate over time. (My perception)
In clothing, it is still noticeable after 3 days!
There is also development in the scent progression: Initially citrusy-woody (about 1-2 hours), then citrusy-creamy-powdery-vanilla for about 6 hours.
All in all, a great companion for women who know what they want!
