Like the memory
Angéliques sous la Pluie is like an airy veil of memory that surrounds me as a wearer. A fresh, spicy, airy dream of Angelica and juniper. In my opinion, this theme could not be more modern and timeless. However, it is a dance on a knife edge. The result is as fragile as dragonfly wings and yet so deep and emotional. It is neither too herbaceous nor too creaky.

It is the memory of yesterday's evening walk in autumn. A golden sunset, clear air and mossy, damp forest soil. It is the memory of the sensual smell of skin. It is the memory of a loved one. You feel connected. Can you smell connectedness? And if so, how do you manage to preserve this state in a fragrance!
ASlP is practically unnoticeable for me after 3 hours. Nevertheless the tender memory of the AslP feeling manifests itself.
For me the perfect fragrance to go with business dress. Where no perfume is actually appropriate, I like to use it very much. It is personal, neat, elegant and I feel comfortable.

If you want to get through the day with it in a perceptible way, you can be prepared to have to check every 20 minutes. If necessary no knockout criterion, because I might use up a bottle as an exception ;-) Whether 3 sprayers or 20...ASlP stays absolutely true to his character ;-)
Many fragrances I was allowed to test were great. Many of them were forgotten shortly after. Not because of a lack of durability, but because they did not create images, moods or feelings in me. The only thing these scents would create is probably an empty feeling in my wallet.

Strictly speaking, it is an impertinence to throw a fragrance onto the market that goes over the Wupper after 3 hours. Angéliques sous la Pluie is the only fragrance I can't be angry with for this. I accept it, because only with this compromise could I create what I can perceive here. I keep silent and spray.....after......and after......and after....

A whiff of nothing...
Angéliques Sous La Pluie brings back memories. I associate it with a damp morning after a thunderstorm night in the mountains, with fog on the meadows. Everything is bathed in a grey light, but the first rays of light in the sky find their way through the clouds that waft around the summits.
I feel lost, and yet at the same time in the here and now.
Sometimes I have the feeling this fragrance does not RIGHT, it just IS.
Hardly tangible floral notes, with a tiny dash of spice and a slight freshness. Like nature in the rain.
A breath of nothing that still holds me captive and has an insane effect on me. I don't get any compliments, but I feel so incredibly well as with hardly any other fragrance.
Never would I have thought that so little can be so much.
The durability is extendable (to say it nicely), but the smell echoes with me for a long time, even if it is actually hardly perceptible anymore.
Angéliques Sous La Pluie is silent - and I enjoy. And that's what I'm talking about, totally positive.

Angelica through the window in the rain
Angelica in fragrances I like very, spicy, bitter, musky. Strict or soft. This angelica (what a beautiful name, isn't it?) was in the rain. It's a little washed-out, like looking through a raindrop-blurred window. Or even watercoloured with a lot of water. There are quite different, almost biting, astringent top notes, which also hold. This one's different. Flowery, soft, almost a little soggy. Or also tender to the touch and dreamy, depending on the point of view, finds AugustA.

Lost in the rain...
Like being in the place where a ten ton coriander loaded truck crashed into a pepper storehouse, under a showering rain. The first hour or so is like being on the spot when it happens. The rest (which is not much) is like visiting the place three months later. I love both pepper and coriander, but I think that nearly 150 euros for a fleeting whiff of them is way too much. On the other hand, it has one of the most beautiful and melodious names ever. After all, how many perfumes out there allow you to answer with what could be a lyrical poem's title, when asked what perfume are you wearing?

An Underrated Gem from Ellena...
Beautiful scent by Jean-Claude Ellena. Angeliques Sous La Pluie opens with a tremendously invigorating green/herbal accord that must be the angelica. Then some cumin appeared as it does in other scents from Ellena like Declaration, which resembles BO. Oh no, this is not looking as good as I thought... Luckily, Ellena balances the cumin much better here than he has in many other scents where it is a great off-putting distraction, allowing the angelica to still dominate and mix with a very nice pink pepper supporting note. At the base, I get primarily cedar, and JC Ellena definitely knows how to do cedar right. Longevity and projection are both regrettably below average.

All this is quite minimalistic, subtle and rather inspired. I understand the negative comments related to the pricing; that is indeed a hard one to take considering how minimalistic the scent is. I guess sometimes for a niche scent created by a master nose like Ellena, that is the price of admission. With his best efforts in Terre d'Hermes and Eau de Campagne, Angelique Sous La Pluie is right behind those greats and is highly recommended if you can afford it. 4 stars out of 5.

Is this a beautifully composed dewy Angelica that shimmers through a mist? Yes. Does it last even an hour? No.
