Her name is Emily
The very first time he sees her is at the party he throws every summer on his magnificent yacht. The sky is a steely blue and is hardly impressed by the tiny, wispy clouds. They are merely faint decorations that stand in the way of the perfection of a balmy summer's day, which is precisely what makes it so round, so exciting. Dozens of beautiful women cavort on the boat, which is moored directly on the beach; the air is filled with sparkling champagne, chilled raspberries and heavy, sultry perfume fragrances, which, just like the guests, try to outdo each other in their luxuriousness.

He laughs. He smiles. He shakes hands. He is the perfect host. He traipses in his white, expensive tennis shoes through sticky puddles of Chardonnay something, casually caressing sun-tanned, silky skin with his arms. Snow-white Hollywood smiles threaten to burn his eyes, high-pitched giggles tug at his eardrums and nerves, expectations constantly squeeze his strong shoulders. He pushes his way through the crowd in panic, towards the edge of the boat, wanting to escape the party-happy, ostentatious crowd that he has invited himself like the ghosts he never wanted to summon - and then it is suddenly quiet around him.

Because then he sees HER.

The opulent, pompous, ostentatious cloud of expensive women's fragrances recedes bitchily and clamorously before this delicate, innocent and yet remarkably assertive note of peony, which bathes his nose in a white swan's lake and whisks him away to a place that is so inviting, romantic and safe that he immediately feels secure.

She, - this is Emily.

Emily is standing on the sidelines, nervously holding a glass of champagne, not knowing what she is doing here among all the luxurious, well-heeled guests talking about horse betting and shares. She was dragged along by her friend, a self-declared fashionista, who immediately disappeared into the hustle and bustle and left her behind.

Emily is not rich; she works in a lingerie store and lives in a tiny house on the beach, which she inherited from her father. She wears her honey-blonde curls loose, caressing a round, naturally beautiful and friendly face, which smiles shyly at him when he dares to approach her. Fascinated, he notices how much more elegant and feminine she looks than the screaming, colorful, pompous ladies who usually fawn over him. The white, creamy satin summer dress plays around her tanned legs, the diamond studs in her ears match the glittering pendant on her necklace and those on her bracelet. The fact that they aren't real doesn't bother him at all. The black strappy sandals caress her well-groomed, delicate feet. She doesn't want to stand out, she doesn't have to. She is the dove among a thousand birds of prey, the Cinderella at the ball. A woman of restrained elegance, white, pure and yet cuddly.

He misses her. He misses her just by looking at her.

Before he can say anything, she reaches out her dainty, soft hand to him.

"Hello," she says. A soft yet clear voice, present yet reserved, accompanied by white, somewhat cone-like teeth which, despite her feminine presence, still hint at the cute girl from earlier days. "My name is Emily."

They cuddle in the beach house. Two empty plates with leftover wild salmon in tagliatelle on the small country house table in front of them. Her scent caresses him, bright and flattering; he sees glistening bright fields of flowers, smells cedar wood and roses, smells the down-to-earth and quiet awakening of spring and knows that he will never stop dreaming again. And so he lets her take him into eternity; into her own white blooming garden of peonies, freesias and roses, a bouquet that gives him the security he has been looking for for so long and which has now finally found a home.

This fragrance "Cute" is based on Chloe and I have to say that I like Chloe a little better, but that doesn't mean that this one is bad. I always try to see the "dupe" as a fragrance composition in its own right. For me, it's a fragrance like the Emily from my story; soft, pure, cool in its restrained elegance, a feminine fragrance, quite classic. A fragrance for women who, despite their important professions, whether they are teachers, sales clerks, cooks or nurses, are still one thing above all: Remarkable ladies.

Chloé's little sister Cuté
Today with the red horse there were again percentages on La Rive fragrances.
I already own a few of this brand and generally have to say: I am thrilled!
Actually, I wanted to try Taste of kiss and the turtle scent. But once again I could not control myself and took Cuté with me. After all, the original is my favourite, my signature, my dream fragrance, which takes me to another world.

But now to this:
Almost all LR fragrances have an extreme alcoholic start. No more tragic, because it disappears after a few seconds. If you can't take it off, you should hold your breath for a moment ;)
Then my Chloé or the little sister appears. It is a little lighter and gentler, but is very similar to the big one. Simply clean and rosy :)

I can't say anything about the durability at the moment, but it's the case with my others that they unfortunately quickly give up the ghost.
Small tip: I spray the fragrances on, let them dry and then spray again on the same. Through the layers you hold a few hours longer :)

Cuté unfortunately doesn't bring me into my dream world, but it can be recommended as a cheap alternative. If there's nothing special to do or I want to smell Chloé to fall asleep, I'll definitely go for the dupe :)

So if you like super clean rose scents and want to save money, you can't go wrong with this one :)

Beautiful, but very weak
Today I had some work to do at Rossmann and because of the many positive ratings I was looking for Cuté. I found a tester, but unfortunately the fragrance was sold out. So tested and then we'll see. The beginning very delicate after peony and freesia. I like himself. Then quickly rose, magnolia and lily were added. Quite pleasant with the beginning. But quickly it was gone. The finish with amber and cedar wood was a fragrance of its own, uncoupled from the floral scents. Nah, that was a little too little for me, even if the scent resembles Cloé very much. When I left the shop, I couldn't get a whiff of Cuté. On the skin the fragrance lasts about 1 hour and then has similarity with Nivea. Unfortunately there will be no purchase of the bottle for me, because everything is a little too weak for me. It should be a bit stronger and then I would have bought the fragrance. Although it's a dupe to cloé, there are more durable fragrances that go in that direction, such as Tulip Dream by Essence Garden
