Pink sugar from Persia
The brand Asabi was apparently founded in Persia (Iran) and has a very appealing opulent oriental website.
Everything revolves around love and the tragic story of two lovers - how could one not be curious about the two fragrances in the portfolio so far?
And after Kilian names Love as the fragrance twin for Asabi No.3, the circle somehow closes. The price segment is similarly high.
After a sample of it fluttered into my house, of course it had to be tried out.

I find the top note to be very violently sweet and heavy.
Marshmallows sprout like mushrooms on a fluffy meadow of cotton candy, through which a stream of rosewater syrup flows.
I immediately think of Pink Sugar, who knocked me out with a similarly sweet hardcore gourmet note.
Although I only sprayed Asabi No.3 once, it stays in my nose for hours
Desperately I try to filter out a flower scent, but in vain. Everything sinks, drowning in heavy pink sweetness. After all, my husband perceives smoke aroma, which can only come from the scent and does not reveal itself to me. Is there a marshmallow burnt on there?
Fortunately, at some point the intensity decreases and the fragrance becomes a little closer to the skin. So I can bear him at least until the end.
Surely it is qualitatively not to be compared with Pink Sugar, but for me both fragrances belong to the same category and it is still not mine. That's why he gets the same rating from me.

I can imagine that he is a true revelation for sweet tooth and lovers of "fairground scents", so please do not be put off by my subjective perception and evaluation.

Yes, it's love
The most interesting acquaintances are usually made by chance or through other people. I would never have met Corallo without a generous perfume

At the first sniff of the sprayer he pricked me in the nose and I thought "no, this one is not for me". But since I undauntedly make physical contact with every scent where the spark doesn't fly immediately, he also got a second chance, and he took me by storm.
Suddenly it is beautifully powdery, dry and also a bit spicy. I immediately think of yellowed paper, museums of natural history, costumes, heavy curtains, velvet-covered rows of seats and that very special dusty theatrical smell of our time-honoured state stage. It has a note that I also find and love in Dior Homme Intense. Iris clearly dominates the character, but I also smell violets that are not listed at all, a delicate herbal spice and fine vanilla in the base. Nostalgic without being old and with a great potential for longing.
For me a fragrance that soothes and calms, that envelops me and brings the past and future into harmony. An all-you-can-eat scent

The durability is good, the Sillage I find moderate and unobtrusive. I will enjoy the special moments with him until the bottling is finished. I'm not yet ready to take him in with me, because many things seem much more valuable from a distance than when you always have them around you and I want to extend this sweet desire to the limit, because it also fits the character of Corallo very well. Once again, many thanks to the noble donor!
