Vanilla pure
I am now outing myself as a wearer of this super cheap discount perfume. I was standing in this Spanish supermarket, sniffing the Monogotas scents just out of curiosity. Then a wave of vanilla hit me - sweet, gourmand, creamy and absolutely delicious! To this day, I am intrigued by this lovely scent that will be synthetic but has a longevity of up to 12 hours. It is a pure fragrance with no other nuances. I therefore particularly like to use it to layer with the Weleda Jardin de Vie Rose. I particularly like this combination and it is suitable for warmer days, even though the pure vanilla scent is more suitable for winter.
It reminds me of a cross between a bakery and a pudding. A cheap alternative for all those who love vanilla and would like something to layer. On the next Spain vacation so once to Mercadona please..

Joop! My Love
I tried Joop! Homme as a teenager and thought it was great. Back then, I only wore men's fragrances on the sly because I thought that as a woman, you weren't "allowed" to (thankfully, that's different today). Yesterday I tried the scent again and thought I was going to fall off my stool after first smelling it: a headache note of an overbearingly sweet and pungent potpourri that made me dread it. Could my memory have deceived me so?
After a few moments, the alcohol, which was probably responsible for the pungent accord, was gone. What remained was an enchanting blend, of which I perceived a floral tone with vanilla, patchouli and tonka bean. Now I remember why I loved Joop! Homme so much. My nose is not yet trained to the point where I can smell out individual components perfectly, but this unity of sweetness, light spice and something dark did it for me. The perfume lasts a very long time, which I especially love. I could notice it on my skin for about eight hours or even longer. For me, this is a wonderful fragrance that I find suitable for both genders. I find the sillage to be stronger than body-appealing, but not too overbearing.
For me, a great fragrance for going out in the evening, it can also be nice in everyday life. For work I would find him too intense
