Paradoxical vanilla!
I didn't know what to do with Les Parfums de Rosines so far - but these new, brightly coloured bottles made me curious :)
Comments were wished otherwise that would be nothing with the test meant our perfume boss ;)
Very well ... i start without much bells and whistles with the vanilla!

To the fragrance:
Vanilla Paradoxe starts with a British bitter grapefruit plus a truckload of rosemary and juniper. Both no favorites for my nose, but somehow nevertheless very exciting to sniff.
Angelica gives the fragrance a bit more green-herbal nuances and the spicy cardamom looks a bit musty to me.
The whole thing is rounded off with wood. I search the rose in vain.
With vanilla geht´s then into the base.
That still smells exciting and I think to myself ... wow... a different scent of vanilla.
Green-spicy-herbaceous-other-wise-vanillig!
Then I get disappointed pretty fast, because musk should have been more and the Ambroxan almost a truckload less.
The herbs, the green, the spice - everything that made the vanilla paradox so exciting for me - should have stayed, but unfortunately it turned into an ambrox-heavy vanilla pulp. I should mention the unsweet variety, because sweet wird´s not! :)
Who has no problems with Ambroxan, should like the smell also further quite well :)
I find unisex suitable ... which is not always taken for granted with vanilla fragrances!
Spring/autumn and winter would be suitable for the fragrance.
The shelf life is approx. 7 hours plus, the Sillage is in the middle range.
The bottle of Vanilla Paradox shines in beautiful yellow and looks not elegant but very funny :)

Conclusion:
Paradox about that...
the vanilla starts excitingly *spicy-herbaceous-otherwise*
In the base then unfortunately vanilla unit porridge with Ambroxan. Too bad!

Cloud path slider & spring messenger
The principle of hope:
All these days -
rain shower grey, stumble stone desert, mist swath turbidity -
and somewhere in between -
a warm sunbeam.

-Judith Urmes-

A still cool spring morning and the first sunbeams caressing my skin ... a little happiness of warmth ... the anticipation of wonderfully blooming lilacs ... hach... then I like Lilac Love!
Cloud path sliders & spring messengers ... ah... read yourself ;)

To the fragrance:
Lilac Love starts with lilac, heliotrope and a wagonload of powder.
But before it gets too overflowery for me, the cocoa comes along and slows down the flowers a bit. Iris is powdering again. Tonka I can't really sniff out here.
With patchouli, wood and vanilla geht´s in the base.
The powder blossoms now become a little softer and quieter. Cocoa sprinkles are still in the game. I mean I now float from my wrist towards cotton-soft musk.
Lilac Love is a powdery-creamy floral fragrance with subtle gourmand notes. Despite vanilla, the fragrance does not become too sweet.
Portable in spring, autumn and winter. I exclude summer because it is already very luxuriant.
The shelf life is 9 hours plus. The Sillage is not room-filling but nevertheless quite ordendlich. A beautiful fragrance restaurant surrounds me. Even from my mama gab´s a compliment and she doesn't often say what to my scents ;)
The bottle is wonderful, valuable, typical for Amouage and could not be more matching in colour.
Lilac Love brings spring to my skin ... pushes stupid clouds away ... warms me:)

Conclusion:
Lilac blossom splendour ... Spring morning & warming sunbeams.
Powder-pollinated flowers ... Heliotropic Cocoa.
Creamy-beautiful!

I make a test recommendation for all of you who have had their mouth watered ;)
Flowery scents and especially powder and cream you should but like wird´s nothing else with this Amouage :)

Velvet water
But your soul is warmed like snowflakes on your skin ... this is Bottega Veneta Eau de Velours!

Actually, it's not my baggage pattern at all.
Rose is difficult especially in connection with Patchouli. Until recently I didn't like unsüß at all but this scent didn't let me go anymore after the test.
So Sweetsmell, I said to myself... out of the baggedemagedöns and into the fragrance cabinet with the bottle!
I don't regret hab´s ;)

To the fragrance:
Eau de Velours starts peppery with citric sounds.
But by the time you pronounce bergamot, the rose will come along. This rose is beautiful even for me. It is interspersed with plum sprinkles and underpainted with jasmine. Slightly spicy wird´s in the course. Which spices are supposed to be in it, however, my nose fails.
In the base geht´s with soft leather and lots of patchouli.
Musk also joins it. It's not listed, but I can smell it. It gives the fragrance a pleasant, warm mood.
Eau de Velours wears like velvet on the skin and is absolutely unsweet!
A fragrance for autumn/winter and the cooler spring days.
The shelf life is a good 8 hours plus and the Sillage is not room-filling but well perceptible the first few hours, after that I am discreetly surrounded by a pink patchouli musk cloud.
I find Eau de Velours very effective - stylish - feminine!
The bottle with its leather bow is very pretty and valuable. The bottle colour matches the fragrance.

Conclusion:
Noble leather, Patch & ne red Rose - velvety soft with plum sprinkles.
Decent- unsweet - effective!
Velvet water fits ... fine so :)

Girls... you really have to test it... it's so beautiful! :)

A sea of light full of magic
A sea of light...
wraps the world in magic
warms me - opens my heart.
Makes my soul grow-
shine until I am enlightened too!

-Hans-Christoph Neuert-

Panthea somehow left me helpless on the first tests. I found the scent beautiful but not special. The flacon was allowed to retract but to retract just as quickly. Somehow I couldn't with that scent. But Panthea still didn't want to get out of my head.
New attempt ... and do not regret :)

Like a sea of light full of magic ...
radiant - white - light-flooded - pigeon net - pure - angelic!

To the fragrance:
Panthea starts with tangerine, bergamot and a good portion of pepper plus green-herby-resin notes (I guess that comes from elemi resin - luckily I don't smell carrot!)
Tobacco blossoms and a teen shade float in the fragrance and create a cool atmosphere.
Slowly flowery notes creep in. Carnation and violets mix with jasmine, while iris pollinates the whole thing with purple powder.
The base is filled with musk, patchouli, woody tones and clay cat plucks (the tonka bean only becomes decently sweet and only very late in the base!)
Panthea is a radiant clean musk scent (cool-floral-creamy-green-woody-patch-heavy) as only Stéphane Humbert Lucas can conjure up :)
Unisex? By the herbaceous green speckles I would say yes ... but I personally think that Panthea awakens an Aphrodite rather than summon an Adonis ;)
The beautiful fragrance can be worn all year round.
The shelf life is 8 hours plus. The fragrance doesn't come out very loud, but its wonderful fragrance restaurant hovers delicately over the wearer!
As with all Lucas fragrances, the bottle is once again an absolute dream.

Conclusion:
Panthea left me helpless back then ...
but what do I itch my estimate from yesterday if the magic then finally still reached me :)

I recommend to all cleaners ... sniff!
Be enchanted by Panthea ;)

Liaison with carnation and leather
We are
together
grown
grown together

-Hans-Christoph Neuert-

Carnation and leather ... can that go well? I asked myself that at the time and yes ... it can go well :)
But it took me another year until I knew that Lui and I belonged together.
Now the chic bottle is in my perfume shelf and I am happy that I entered the Liason with Lui!

To the fragrance:
Lui starts with me immediately balsamic and slowly carnation and leather creep into the fragrance.
Don't worry, carnation sceptics ... the carnation is absolutely modern here :)
I find the leather to be edgy but not rough.
But benzoin is the main chord in this fragrance. The liasion with carnation and leather make this balsamic dream unique!
A beautiful, balsamic-powdery-sweet fragrance. Lui is soft and supple, not loud and also not for the big appearance. More of a soul flatterer for the quieter days of life. To melt away;)
A delicate fragrance restaurant surrounds me for the first few hours before Lui becomes very close. The shelf life is a good 8 hours plus.
Autumn/winter and the first days of spring fit perfectly.
Absolutely unisex, even if I had claimed a year ago that he was partly too masculine for me.
The Flakönchen is already very chic and looks noble :)

Conclusion:
Beautiful benzoin enters a liaison with carnation & leather.
Balsamic-powdery-sweet!
*melting*
The Sweetsmell likes the liaison with Lui:)

Thierry Wasser and Delphine Jelk have created a wonderful fragrance with Lui and a test is really worthwhile ;)
