Spektrum

Colorful plastic flowers as a lid, I was skeptical when I tested it...But the jasmine goes down well with me, putting all thoughts of dull, chaste daisies to the back of my mind. There's also a green note plus a hint of clean sweat. And then something that reminds me of the smell of a cat's paws. The floral-fresh jasmine and some rainwater aquatics keep everything on the clean side, however, I find it easy to wear and am somewhat fond of this fragrance.

Shortly after spraying it on, a delicious citrus-fruit mix with a hint of orange and a vanilla-sweet undertone. Then the floral heart notes quickly emerge and the chewy candy turns into a sophisticated, feminine women's perfume. However, after a while, the underlining sweetness (vanilla, patchouli, amber works well) also has a slightly scratchy, synthetic quality. I suspect this is mainly due to the amber note. The perfume also has a fresh-aquatic side to it, which I'm not sure about, it makes this fragrance cleaner, a hint of soap or fresh laundry, something like that usually doesn't appeal to me. However, the floral-sweet notes also win me over to this perfume. It will stay in my collection for now.

I buy Bulgarian rose absolute (in alcohol dilution, as it remains stable for longer) from Farfalla every now and then. I have also tried Turkish rose absolute (from Primavera). The Bulgarian one is a little sweeter and smells more like honey.
I can definitely recognize real rose absolute immediately after spraying on "Vedette". There is a good amount of it in there. There is also a kind of dark pepper in the air. (it's allspice, in the list of top notes, bay allspice has somehow become bay rum)
The allspice gives the opening some power and edge, but the intoxicating roses quickly gain the upper hand again (after about an hour I no longer smell any allspice).
After about 2 hours, the fragrance becomes somewhat cooler, more watery, fresher, cleaner, and the absolute runs out of steam and the synthetic peony takes over. But it does not become soapy.
I can't find anything "grubby" in it at any time.
I can't smell any of the specified base notes, the roses just gradually fade. Therefore, it is not a heavy fragrance, if you prefer to have roses around you all day (but it doesn't last that long), you can wear it without hesitation even in everyday life.

I had discovered it at shin height at Müller. He is still available there, by the way. Thought me, maybe inspired by Miss Dior, because the Flacon looks a little like that. Only sprayed on the test strip, since no more body parts free, after all, you come first past all brand fragrances and only in the end to the cheap.
He had so nothing cheap about it, somehow fine, tingling and even slightly green amber powder there. For about 12 € simply times taken, although heavy clunky flacons do not meet my taste, even if Svarovski crystals are stuck on it...
At home then extensively tested on the skin, briefly been disappointed: This is yes a Si copy. With Si I could never do anything, too much centered balanced, just do not exaggerate anything, one has thought there probably.
This perfume here, however, is a new interpretation of the theme: the fruit top note is much clearer, tangy, sweet and sour currant, which remains in the course of the fragrance also almost to the end, only slowly weakening. Then the rose in the heart is very beautiful and also has a high-quality effect on me - no absolute, but sweet and quite nature-identical it lovingly opens its arms for me. The best part of the blend doesn't wait either, because, unlike Si, a strong sweet vanilla comes in quite early, which also lasts a long time on the skin, so 8h plus. Sure this vanilla is not the very highest quality, but pleasantly powdery-flattering it provides well-being.
For me, this was a fragrance for home, after work, to relieve stress and build security, a wonderful couch or fall asleep fragrance. Not necessarily sexy, not elegant, but flattering feminine and cuddly, with something stimulating beginning. Throughout the summer I was also generally very fixated on fruity scents, since that was a find that hit the mark exactly.
Currently, I reach again to other fragrances, but fruit time comes guaranteed again, I have there always so phases ...

Penetrating citrus and herbal-green freshness at the beginning, good idea with the myrtle, it is somewhat similar to eucalyptus and lets you breathe well in the stressful workday. Then, for further relaxation, a creamy dessert is served with it. The sweetness remains rather background, elegant and light.
Unfortunately, the base then acts on me somehow oldschool, or I associate older gentlemen. Perhaps because I have already perceived this perfume on such? With such associations, you never know exactly where they come from...maybe the citrus-cedar mixture is also such a classic aftershave thing. Tested it on my own wrist and on paper. Conclusion: less gourmand scent and a bit more classic than I thought.
