Pure Amazement!
I am actually surprised that this fragrance seems to have hardly any owners here in the forum!
Especially since several perfumes have already appeared here that are so-called fragrance twins of "Tobacco Vanille / Tom Ford," or are perceived as such.
I was not familiar with this brand either until I found it online and thus got to know this wonderful scent.
At first, I was a bit skeptical, but then curiosity took hold of me and I reached for this unknown fragrance treasure "blindly."
And behold, the enthusiasm is great! :)
Since "Tobacco Vanille" is my signature scent and I love it dearly, I still wanted a more affordable alternative to this precious elixir.

This "fragrance twin" is simply dreamy and also very affordable at just under 9 euros for 150 ml of Eau de Parfum :)
For the upcoming autumn and also for winter, it is wonderfully wearable, and that for women and men of all everyday groups.

After application, this "pearl of the Orient" is hardly alcoholic, immediately exuding a mixed scent of tobacco and other notes.
The tobacco is slightly herbal and smoky-warm, a bit sweet, and has a scent of gingerbread; I clearly recognize clove with its typically peppery gingerbread scent!
Powdery vanilla (not Bourbon vanilla) joins in immediately, and in the background, I perceive subtly fruity notes..
Overall, it is a blend of the typical scent of "Tobacco Vanille," but also a mix of "Wild Tobacco" by Illuminum, which is clearly recognizable to me.
"Tabac & Vanille" does not really develop, meaning it does not have much of a progression.
After application, all mentioned fragrance notes are present quite quickly and change little until the base note.

Another plus point is the longevity!
It is quite good when you consider the price-performance ratio.
The perfume lasts on the skin for 5-8 hours.
On clothing, it lasts a bit longer, or in the hair!
The sillage is moderate to strong.
I also find the bottle very good, as it is an aluminum bottle and the liquid is well protected from light.
Thus, the risk of "tipping" the fragrance is somewhat mitigated..

I know that there are quite a few "Tobacco Vanille" lovers here in the forum, so I can only encourage you to test this perfume!
I think many here would love this "oriental pearl."

A good unisex companion for hot summer days!
I think this fragrance doesn’t really need much of an introduction.
Still, I would like to write a brief comment about this classic from Clarins!
The brand Clarins stands for high-quality cosmetics and has established itself in the jungle of cosmetic brands for a long time.
Eau Dynamisante is, for me personally, a great companion for hot summer days, and absolutely unisex for all ages.
This little water refreshes you immediately, feels good, and has a revitalizing effect; it is also skin-caring and has quite good longevity.

After the initial application, a very fresh scent unfolds with notes of orange peel, lemon, and also spicy notes like coriander and a hint of cumin.
For me, cumin is not particularly noticeable, not even later on!
Quite quickly after the first impression, a rather intense rosemary joins in.
This herb has a wonderful spicy-citrusy scent aroma and proves to be a perfect match with the carnation!
The citrus notes like orange and lemon decrease in intensity after 20 minutes, and patchouli makes its grand entrance.
This is not particularly earthy, nor musty in smell, nor narcotic or intense, rather warm and balsamic.
Eau Dynamisante proves to be a well-coordinated water overall, and for me, it is simply indispensable in summer with its often hot days!
I also really like that this classic does not emit a sharp alcohol smell or contain any unnatural/sharp-scented notes.
That is not always a given with this type of fragrance waters!
It is a well-coordinated water that fully expresses its naturalness.

The longevity is quite good; I perceive the scent for 3-4 hours.
The sillage is naturally less noticeable..

This Clarins classic is always worth a test for both genders!

A budget-friendly version of Angel!
During a spontaneous visit to a shopping mall, I came across the Miss Fenjal fragrances and tested them on a whim!
I must shamefully admit that I didn't even know that Fenjal also produces fragrances.
So, shame on me;-)
Anyway, when I stumbled upon "Endless Sky" during my testing, I immediately noticed the similarity to Angel by Thierry Mugler.
I liked the scent, and for 6.50 euros, I found this Fenjal candidate quite appealing, so in the meantime, this "Miss" has joined my collection.
When I smell this fragrance, the name "Endless Sky" evokes thoughts of a cold and clear winter evening filled with silence, along with the beautiful sky in all its glory, which makes one realize how insignificant we humans actually are on God's earth.. The scent of the "endless sky" has a comforting quality, bursting with warm caramel, floral accords, and in the base note, it carries the typical scent of the classic blue Fenjal bath oil.
I think this Eau de Toilette has something special:))

Anyone looking for a reasonably priced version of "Angel" by Thierry Mugler should definitely test this fragrance, as it smells quite good and resembles "Angel" quite a bit, especially regarding the caramel scent combined with patchouli and vanilla!

"Miss Fenjal Endless Sky" does not undergo a typical development for me!
After application, there is no unpleasant alcohol note to be detected.
The fruity and floral notes quickly unite, blending simultaneously with patchouli, powdery vanilla, and maltol.
I find that these last three scent notes stand out the most as the fragrance develops.
The maltol note gives the fragrance a rather intense and warm caramel scent, which, when combined with patchouli and vanilla, creates a harmonious, gourmand aura.
Overall, this little potion has a warm, comforting scent, especially during the base note phase.
I can hardly perceive black currant, and pineapple is only subtly present in the top-heart note.

During the base note phase, "Endless Sky" becomes quite creamy and warm, with a light to moderate sweetness, while also emitting the typical scent of Fenjal bath oil, albeit only slightly, but clearly perceptible to me.

I must say that I perceive this "Miss Fenjal" as somewhat synthetic, but I do not see this as a flaw, as "Angel" is known to have synthetic scent facets in its development.

The longevity is quite good; the scent veil lingers on the skin for 5-6 hours.
The sillage is to be rated as moderate.

It would definitely have become a good classic from 4711 if the scent weren't limited. Really a shame!
I think the traditional brand 4711 doesn't need an introduction, as the famous classic 4711 Eau de Cologne is known and loved worldwide for centuries. And rightly so!

Remix Cologne Edition (2018) would certainly have had the potential to become a classic if it weren't a limited edition that will probably soon be unavailable. Really a shame!
This refreshing water is, for me, a highlight of the brand in an olfactory sense, as it has such a beautiful cheerful, buoyant scent character, is wonderfully citrus-fresh, and also has slightly floral notes.
It can practically be worn by anyone and for any occasion.
Whether it's a young girl, a young woman, or even the more mature generation.
This jewel has completely convinced me, and when I wear it, my mood always lifts and a feeling of well-being sets in.
For spring and summer, Remix Cologne is the perfect scent attire, and I have already received several compliments for it..

After application, Remix Cologne exudes a citrus freshness that is quite revitalizing.
Herb-citrusy bergamot immediately combines with a hint of green tea, which, however, is not very prominent, and juicy lemon, making me think of sparkling lemon water right away.
After a few minutes, I perceive floral facets, namely gardenia in very small amounts and neroli.
Neroli is quite strong throughout the entire scent progression. Blood orange?
I rather smell orange, which is also juicy and sparkling, and quickly merges with all the scent notes.
I can't perceive the base note very well, possibly cedar, which is green and has a subtle typical light pencil note. But not in a negative sense! And a bit of musk, but I believe it's more white musk, as it is not herbaceous, soft, and hardly noticeable to me..
Overall, this wonderful cologne from 4711 does not undergo any significant scent development in the classical sense.
One scent note after another quickly makes its presence known here and clings quite well for an Eau de Cologne.

I know some waters from 4711 that have rather poor longevity and do not have such a buoyant, cheerful scent aura! And that's why this water is an absolute highlight for me among the citrus-dominated colognes.
Let's see what the brand has to offer in the future; I'm really curious!

The scent is very good.
The longevity is rather average, but since it is a cologne, 3-4 hours of longevity is good.
The sillage is weak.
I like the design of the bottle with its lettering.

Definitely worth a test!

Still one of the best classics from Jil for me!
It must be over 20 years since I first tested "Sun" through my sister.
At that time, the fragrance was very present in all fashion magazines, and I was already captivated by the white bottle that reminded me of porcelain with the orange lettering "Sun."
Back then, this fragrance stood out to me with its simple design and clear statement, namely "Sun" (Sun).
To this day, this well-known classic is a fixed part of my collection and will likely remain so.
This Eau de Toilette is personally one of the last great classics from Jil Sander that, to my knowledge, has not changed since then.
At least, I haven't noticed any changes in the scent.

It is a tribute to summer, the warm summer sun, the lightness of a beautiful summer day.
Whether at the beach looking out at the lake or simply sitting in a lovely flower garden where the mild air of a summer day is filled with flowers from our homeland.
Still, and this is what I find so appealing about Sun, is that this perfume, as it also has oriental-spicy notes in its development, can be worn just as well in autumn and winter!
I even think that "Sun" suits some men well, even if the scent is quite sweet at the beginning... But that's just a side note!

After application, "Sun" initially exudes some citrus notes that quickly give way to the sweet, somewhat intoxicating scents of flowers like carnation and vanilla-powdery heliotrope.
Both flowers are the predominantly perceivable scent notes of the heart note along with a clear citrus-wine-scented rose.
After a few minutes, the spicy scent notes like tonka bean follow quickly; it is sweet and has a rather intense scent of marzipan, remaining prominently present until the base note.
Amber and benzoin quickly unite with the notes of the heart note, giving the fragrance balsamic-warm facets, while lightly herbaceous musks and styrax provide animalic-smoky aromas.
The base note, with all its ingredients, clearly plays the main role here and makes this elixir what it is... A complex floral-spicy oriental with a sensual aura that is not without reason still one of the best and most popular classics of the Jil Sander brand!

I hardly know a fragrance that has such a recognizability and evokes a true magic in me.
It reminds me of past times of my youth and especially of summer with all the beautiful things it has to offer!

It's actually a pity to see that the ratings here have dropped a bit... I just find this fragrance fantastic and admit to being a fan of this perfume!

The longevity is good at 5-8 hours.
The sillage is moderately elevated.
And the design of the bottle is very good due to its simple appearance and aura!
