Platinum Égoiste by Chanel - old love never rusts or "so fresh & so clean"
...because love has no chance of rusting here!

Platinum is a precious metal that impresses with its outstanding corrosion resistance and has always resisted any attempts at rusting or melting. Against all odds, so to speak - precious, mysterious, gray-white and absolutely robust. This also makes the "Platinum Égoïste (Eau de Toilette) | Chanel" a timeless classic men's fragrance that will not be fazed by anything.

It is captivatingly clear and knows exactly what it wants. It opens incredibly fresh, citrusy and slightly floral/green. Almost metallic and thus lives up to its name.

Later, "Platinum Égoïste (Eau de Toilette) | Chanel" becomes woodier and spicier through the use of vetiver and galbanum. The oakmoss also becomes more prominent as the fragrance progresses and the fougère accord can be smelled.

But it remains one thing throughout: fresh and clear, like its color and perhaps also a little sexy... Or as Outkast would say in their song: "Don't you think I'm so sexy, I'm just so fresh, so clean - so fresh and so clean!"

But where does my old love for the Platinum Egosite come from?
During my studies, it must have been 2010, my then flatmate and good buddy - best wishes to you, Chris! - fell under the spell of "Platinum Égoïste (Eau de Toilette) | Chanel". "Alder, the scent is absolutely amazing and the girls are totally into it!" Chris comes from the Baden region

And so it came about that we regularly sprayed ourselves with "Platinum Égoïste (Eau de Toilette) | Chanel". Later, we moved into our first own bottle (which was still incredibly expensive for me at the time) and the compliments started pouring in. Ah yes, good ol' memories...

That's why this old love first found a regular place in my bathroom cabinet and is now an integral part of my perfume collection in my perfume cabinet.

The longevity is absolutely good for a freshie, only the sillage could be a little stronger. But none of this detracts from my (old) love of "Platinum Égoïste (Eau de Toilette) | Chanel". Because it was, is and remains a really great and special fragrance!

With this in mind:
Thank you very much for your attention - I have the honor,
your Pfleddinho

Masculin Pluriel by MFK - a modern master of his craft
With compartment is meant here the fougère accord. Modern because the "masculin Pluriel | Maison Francis Kurkdjian" gets along without the classic oak moss, which originally distinguishes this wonderful accord.

It represents a (if not the) modern implementation of the Fougère and reminds mainly because of its strong concise lavender note of a classic barbershop fragrance. The "masculin Pluriel | Maison Francis Kurkdjian" is a feel-good fragrance, which never screams directly in the face to impose its fragrance molecules. He is rather fresh held - now not citrus summer fresh in the sense of classic Freshies, but rather slightly spicy and a bit green.

The fragrance is not heavy or even oppressive, but wraps the wearer in a beautiful, soft, protective and light cocoon. Schongleich makes a certain sovereignty and security spread...

From the cocoon - initially still strongly characterized by lavender, which is rounded off by the freshness of grapefruit in the top note - a great fragrance develops. The lavender is omnipresent and is increasingly supported by the cedar and vetiver in the further course of the fragrance. The leather is also always active in the background and never completely hides. From the interplay of these components (cedar, vetiver, lavender, leather) a wonderful butterfly emerges, which flies confidently out into the big wide world - protected by his "cocoon", the Masculin Pluriel.

The "masculin Pluriel | Maison Francis Kurkdjian" embodies a fragrance, which is liked everywhere and nowhere to be found.
A timeless and at the same time modern companion, which almost always goes, I can imagine him but especially in the office / business very well and like to wear him there.
Equally well you could wear it to meditate or read a good book at the cold time of year in front of the Sweden stove.

Durability and sillage are fine and for an eau de toilette really in the good range.
Also the price is - for a MFK - for me still ok.
The fragrance is finally very elegant, precisely tuned and extremely high quality.

In this sense:
Many thanks for your attention - have the honor,
your Pfleddinho
