Wuschel

This scent lasts a long time on the skin.
Has a decent sillage.
It's probably only for those with a sweet tooth :-)

Quite sweet and loud at the start.

Then a strong strawberry or raspberry juice. Childhood memory. Red syrup on pudding. Delicious! Or the juice that forms when you sprinkle sugar on ripe strawberries and let them sit. It then drips thickly from the spoon. Scrumptious!

Or when your child is secretly snacking and trying to hide it. With the treats in their mouth, they stand in front of you. And before you can even see the candy, you can already sense it... A warm fruity sweetness wafts towards you, mixed with body odor. Oh, what am I saying, not a hint, a candy AURA, because the child -caught, embarrassed- holds their breath and you smile.

Something like that.

Hours later, a soapiness gently embraces the sweetness with increasing presence, powdery light. A direction that I usually don't like, but it piques my interest. Like freshly washed laundry. Not biting or piercing, making my stomach turn! Still pleasant for me. I also like natural soaps, and there is a wealth of scent combinations, foody, sweet, herbal, fresh, oriental, whatever. But all soaps have more or less a base scent that reminds me of my childhood: Sunday evening bath time. You’re not just freshly bathed, you smell like it too! ... And you disappear small and slender under thick down, wrapped in warmth and clean magic scent.

Something else joins in that I couldn't place the first time until it was said: "You smell like cherry." Bang! That's exactly it! For me, more cherry almond, which is why I didn't realize it right away, and overall better than the fruit candy. A lovely nuance that unfolds with the laundry scent. It easily lasts 12 hours. Now it's close to the body and softer. Nobler. A hint of how a good appearance can be without a ruckus. Quite harmonious. Sometimes delicious enough to bite, sometimes clean and cuddly, an aura that makes you feel full and satisfied. You have to like it, for sure.

A long testing phase is recommended before a potential purchase :-)

Like Vanille Noire du Mexique, a perfume that appeals to all vanilla fans. Here, the name says it all, and lovers of vanilla will adore this fragrance.

I like lavender.

Bergamot is only noticeable at the beginning; after that, lavender blooms in a vanilla flower bed and gives the scent the slightly edgy twist that keeps the vanilla from becoming an edible vanilla. I really like the lavender-vanilla combination, and here it is very balanced, delicate, lovely, and surprisingly long-lasting for an Eau de Toilette. It also stays on the skin and doesn’t overwhelm anyone.

A versatile option for women who don’t want a loud, flashy presence. I enjoy it when I want to smell subtle or when I want my (nose) soul to be caressed.

Cozy and relaxing. A cuddle scent. A I-like-everything, happy-world smell. I don’t need this all the time, but sometimes I do.

Patchouli meets orange blossom.

The orange blossom says: Come along, accompany me for a little while.

Patchouli replies: What a joy.
And it follows her along the path, always about 2 or 3 steps behind.
Then takes a different route to the same destination.

And there’s also the rose, which speaks: I’m still here and doing my best to add the honey.
But she’s not very sociable and says goodbye relatively quickly and abruptly.

Madame Sensuality, named Ylang-Ylang, wants to keep things simple and gets along with everyone.

Patchouli has, as my nose decides, found its goal and the flowers too: a play of exchange, where sometimes one, sometimes the other wears the crown. All without fuss or great tumult.

Very harmoniously coordinated. A scent that can accompany a woman on many occasions.

Oh yes, I like it. Patchouli by Mazzolari divides opinions and grounds me. Although many in my circle do not particularly like patchouli and find it unsuitable for me, I have found in it a counterpoint to my other, warm, light fragrances.

It is angular yet cuddly due to its warm components, full of impact, as I find it very complex even in the "scent release." Sensual, rough, elegant, sweet, and bitter all at once. When I close my eyes, I smell the forest, earth, slightly burnt wood. Inhaling the smoke feels stimulating to me; at the same time, I gain my balance with it; that’s what I mean when I say it grounds me.

I associate the scent of forest and earth only with positive things. This includes growth and decay, and perhaps that is what repels others rather than attracts. The smoky aspect is also not to everyone's taste.

Patchouli remains very close to my skin, which I find very pleasant.

Mazzolari creates a bridge here between elegance, gentleness, and warmth and the contrast to that: primality, roughness, and distance. Very successful!

Balsamic sweet, as already mentioned, it hits PERFECTLY. I have nothing new to add, but I would like to evaluate the scent.

A song in maybe 2 verses, clear and memorable.

The first spray is somewhat resinous, crackling. That dissipates very quickly and makes way for mandarins and orange blossoms. And I also distinctly perceive a plum. It appears juicy and fruity, like a harp tone.

After that, there is only harmony.

Subtly restrained fruitiness. Mild sweetness, not cloyingly sweet, but simply and plainly. And when I take two or three more breaths of it, something adds itself that I find hard to describe. I have read about tolu balsam being used in perfumes to convey sweet warmth, but also as a cough remedy in medicine. In that, I have found the explanation for myself. For me, benzoin and labdanum stand for warmth, and tolu balsam represents the slightly angular, edgy aspect of this scent, ethereal, cleansing in minimal measure, for me the dot on the I that gives the fragrance its final touch, the somewhat extraordinary note, but very harmonious as a whole. The refrain of the song, so to speak.

I find it hard to categorize this scent. Very close to the body. Warm. Soothing. Subtle. Long-lasting. A touch of the Orient and a nose full of mystery. A song indeed, no poem.
