For days full of spirit in early summer
Uncommented fragrances No. 137
Guerlain's idyll Love Blossom is not a more spectacular fragrance and therefore certainly doesn't deserve spectacular words, but I like it. In general, I liked most of the idyllic variants quite well and this one was missing in my project of a complete test of all available Guerlain fragrances, and since it was available in the net at the right time and quite cheaply, I ordered it without a previous test.
The concept that at first glance does not need a red thread is the idiosyncratic feature of the entire series. Each idyll variant is dominated by different flowers. But the rose, which is almost never in the centre of attention, serves as a bracket, then there is jasmine, which does not even appear among the ingredients in the Extrait, and finally other strong flowers, often lilies of the valley, but sometimes also lilacs - as here in Love Blossom. The base is always musk or an elegant musk substitute like Ambrettesamen. In addition, there are several other variations in the composition. Nevertheless, the family resemblance of all idyllic fragrances is quite perceptible: strong flowers with a clear proportion of white flowers, which radiate a certain severity, but no Indolik. Love Blossom is described here on Parfumo as a fragrance concentration variant of Idylle Jasmin Lilas. Whether it's a stronger concentration or a weaker one (which I suspect because Love Blossom, unlike Jasmine Lilas, was sold through Duty Free Shops), I can't say for sure because I haven't tested Jasmine Lilas yet (who sends me a droplet?). It seems to me that the scent concentration at hand is more of an EdT, which would suggest that Jasmin Lilas might be an EdP. If you know more here, please post it in the answers, so I can adjust the comment.
Since I like lilac, like to sit under our shrub in the garden and also appreciate jasmine in moderate concentration, this is a really beautiful fragrance for me without appearing spectacular in any way. In weak doses I also wear him as a man, which may surprise, but the fragrance radiates a certain severity with all its flowery femininity, with which I feel comfortable, although perhaps not necessarily in the office.
On today's forgotten Whit Monday, which for me radiates a great peace, lets the week start more slowly, makes the concentration on spirit (which is the original thought of this holiday) possible - and with the rather low early summer temperatures with light wind and diffuse clouds makes the stay in the garden attractive - it reminds me of the lilac bush on our terrace which is no longer in bloom and makes my mood rise. I advise self-testing.
