How a good relationship
Only my second comment on this platform, but a thoughtful one. As already SaSu77 before me aptly said: "Gets better and better"!
I've had Joop Wow! in my closet for a good three years now, wearing it every now and then, but never really paying attention to it. At times, I even found it quite exhausting, because it seemed a bit stiflingly sweet to me. Since I'm now a little more interested in fragrances and not just wear them "so you just smell like something", I also gave Wow! another chance. And it deserved it. Initially, I had to come to terms with the sweetness of the vanilla, which I had already criticized earlier, but after a short while my nose was able to focus on the other notes as well. And this is where the true potential lies dormant: the fragrance is simply super spicy! And then again, the sweetness goes super well with that. Especially in autumn and winter I really like to wear Wow! now. And it definitely allows closeness, which means my environment likes it very much... And that without an acclimatization phase!
As soon as spring knocks I will definitely switch back to fresher, greener scents, but in the current cozy time I'm very happy with Joop. It just fits perfectly into the cold days. And for the money, you definitely can't complain. Only the durability is a little weak with me: After four hours, you have to smell directly on my neck to be able to perceive it. But that's okay

More than just a winter scent
La Havane and I have known each other since the summer, when I happened to burst into the sales training of a Carven employee in the local perfume shop. The training turned spontaneously into a sales talk and I decided on L'Eau Intense as a new summery everyday fragrance and La Havane as a fragrance for special occasions.
The first contact with Havane was already something very special for me: After my nose had already been tormented by the many scent tests, I smelled something special, something protruding for the first time that day. The choice was not difficult for me. The tobacco together with pepper and orange create a heavy but at the same time beguiling spice from the beginning. With the heart note, this heaviness subsides a little - but not much. La Havane almost shows a sweet side. The tobacco is clearly joined by the rose. In contrast to most other comments, which want to feel little or nothing of rose, it is very present in my case. The heart note accompanies you the whole evening until the amber lulls you into a deep sleep (and wakes you up the next morning).

La Havane is a dreamlike scent. Certainly perfect for cold winter evenings, but definitely also suitable for hot, sultry summer evenings in front of a bar with cold cocktails. After all, it carries the DNA of Havana - and there is rarely snow. As a fragrance for special occasions like the one I was introduced to, it is definitely suitable. But it can do more. People want to wear it more often and it allows for that. Sometimes you just sit at home on the couch with a glass of wine. Dreamlike.
