In the Yoga Studio
I have tried this one twice and must say, it transports me directly to the yoga studio, located in the North Sea dunes, the white curtains moving with the wind, a few clouds in the sky but the sun shining around 22 degrees...

To me, the scent feels very calm, thus soothing/pleasant.
I smell eucalyptus from beginning to end, although it becomes more subtle over time.

What I don't like about yoga is the final exercise where you often lie on the ground, close your eyes, and feel your breath - I feel strange at that point but if it smelled like THIS, I would be so relaxed that I wouldn't question the "feeling the breath" anymore and would just go along with it, precisely because of this calming effect... I hope there is at least one person who can somewhat relate to this comment.

I like this scent, but not as a perfume - as a room fragrance in the form of a candle, for example, it would be wonderful and I would probably buy it.

Milky Smoky Musk for Everyday Use.
On the tester, I initially perceived it as a milky musk. On the skin, it became smoky-spicy after maybe 10 minutes (is it the sandalwood?) - but a bit of creaminess remains.
Although I find it pleasant, I would prefer to smell this unisex fragrance on a man as an everyday scent rather than wearing it myself.

I was hopeful
Creamy dark chocolate praline with caramelized (hazelnut) bits on pear coulis. Maybe add a Frangelico to that? Do you want to eat it? Yes! Do you want to smell like that? YES! Does Alibi smell like that? Unfortunately not. (Sorry)

Alibi starts off slightly fruity with mandarin, ripe but still has 1 or 2 green leaves hanging from the stem. This fades into the background after about 10 minutes and then it becomes... I really had to think about what I was smelling and would describe it as an animalic scent with salt or sweat. Could this be the musk that is supposed to come at the end? I've read several times that some users enjoy the scent of sweat in perfumes; I do not belong to that faction. Only towards the end do I catch the scent of warm vanilla (orchid) praline - then it's nice just like the first 10 minutes, but unfortunately I don't like what comes in between.

I ordered a small decant because I was hopeful that this perfume could come close to my personal, dream vision of an autumn/winter scent described above - I need to keep searching. P.S. Suggestions for chocolate praline/pear scents are welcome; if THE RIGHT ONE is included, I'll treat you to a pack of cookies... or pralines?

Makes wonderfully addictive
I'm sitting on the train from Hamburg to Frankfurt and someone sits down next to me... and immediately starts a conversation, his name is Zarko and he’s wearing this cool pink hat with a little feather on it. We talk about everything under the sun and after every little pause, we come up with a new topic that we still need to discuss. A wonderful coincidence! After 3 hours, my seatmate takes a short nap, maybe 30 minutes, and we continue chatting until we reach Frankfurt... I wish this encounter would never end and invite Zarko to come to my hotel with me, and he agrees! We take a train and stroll leisurely to the hotel. I let him in, go to the bathroom for a moment... and he’s gone, just left the little feather behind.

Pink molecule starts sweet and fizzy (fizzy in the sense of carbonation, not citrus)... Champagne with apricot might be the closest description. It doesn’t become berry-like for me, but at some point, a light creaminess comes in that I really love. Much more doesn’t happen on my skin with this fragrance, and I think that’s a good thing!
I'm very satisfied with the longevity - my wrist was resting on my lap and I could smell the fragrance for at least 5 hours through my mask. After washing my hands, it was 90% gone.

Raspberry + Vanilla + Cotton Candy + Cupcake
= super penetrating! I smelled like a horde of teenage girls, so be careful on the skin it smells different than on the paper strip - and it has quite a good sillage, I took the train and EVERYONE smelled me even though I would have preferred not to smell. So again, BE CAREFUL WITH THIS GIRL, SHE'S THROWING CUPCAKES! :D
