Schnüfflerin

This is the first niche fragrance I've ever smelled and yet I'm only dedicating a review to it today.

As I am the only one on Parfumo who owns this fragrance, I wanted to keep this secret tip to myself for a long time. I only shared it with special people because I wanted to avoid any possible hype. Back then I only wore one fragrance, today I love the variety and above all I love sharing the joy of fragrances with you.

"Femme Fougere | Comporta" did something to me that rarely happens: When it came under my nose, I bought it straight away. So classy and so special. A slightly powdery veil on the skin that presents a juicy pear. If the "old money" trend had a fragrance, this would be it. Enough understatement to be worn by a business woman, but special enough to stand out positively. The fragrance is bright and cheerful, but refined enough to always remain stylish and sophisticated. A perfect fragrance for spring and summer.

What a funny mix-up. First lilac, then rose. The fragrance was just about to mutate into a fabric softener, but then caramel comes around the corner. So can the cupcake become a gourmand after all? There are repeated flashes of ozonic notes that completely prevent this from happening. The little cupcake is rather fresh than sweet. Actually a sin on the palate, olfactory patchouli appears here. As I'm not a big patch fan, I view this with some suspicion. It's not even the chocolaty version, but rather the earthy one. So the bottle design is a real mess. Not only is it a visual disaster, it also creates completely false expectations. Gourmand girls like me are disappointed and the fresh florals among us may miss out.

Vanilla sex. A perfume whose name plays on the idea of having normal, standard sex. Of course I had to test it. Slightly put off by the reviews, but still curious, I made my way to KaDeWe. Meandering around the Tom Ford stand. Anyone who's been there knows that it's one of the most unpleasant stands in the store. The consultants are difficult to say the least. Finally plucked up the courage, a pfffft and in 7th heaven. A dream of a vanilla fragrance. I was immediately blown away. How sexy can a vanilla smell? Not at all well-behaved, but rather slightly dirty. The almond gives the fragrance a wicked touch and the scent lasts. For a Tom Ford, it even lasts extremely well. I have to keep sniffing my arm like a madwoman. I feel like an addict and it was clear that I had to get a bottle. If it wasn't for the price. Yes, yes, the fragrance is expensive. But by now I've already gone through my 5th bottle. It's simply unbelievably delicious, even if it's not edible. "Vanilla Sex | Tom Ford" is an absolute compliment magnet for me. For my boyfriend, the fragrance is "sex in a bottle". For me, it's one of my absolute favorite fragrances and it would have been such a shame if I had missed it because of this Tom Ford bashing. I can only advise everyone to give the fragrance a chance at least once.

Christmas is just around the corner. Mrs. Lebkuchen wants to make herself chic. At first she wants to try it with soap like the humans, but then she realizes that it would completely ruin her enjoyment. But she has just had cardamom again! She decides to take a bath in white chocolate. She dives in with relish. And a warm gourmand bliss surrounds her. A beautiful vanilla streams through her hair. Satisfied, she steps out of the bath and powders herself with the finest Christmas spices. The party can come. She is eagerly awaited by her human friends. Mrs. Gingerbread wants to provide pleasure, but the humans don't have the heart for it. She is so wonderful and delicious, but the last of her kind. Nowhere can you find this treasure again.

Lira looks in the mirror. Something is wrong. She feels different. Somehow she no longer feels like herself. At first glance, everything seems the same. But suddenly she realizes that she can't see her lilac strands, which actually adorn her vanilla blonde hair. She powders her face and notices that her skin is somehow softer, everything looks softer, but her vanilla-colored hair is more voluminous. Lira is amazed... How can you look identical at first glance when the details are so different? Even her cravings are different: instead of lemon cake, she now wants caramel pastries. Lira begins to doubt her identity. She usually likes it feminine but edgy, but now she likes pure harmony in her appearance. That's not her. No, she is no longer Lira. From now on she is Lana.
