For dessert, toffees and incense!
I'm back! I'm back!
All right... I wasn't really gone anyway. So that you don't cry during my absence, I had taken some commis before the vacation with me, in order to be able to feed you during the vacation every few days times with a Kommi. So don't say I won't take care of you :DD
So... stupid, that's why I hardly have any commissión now. So I have to get back to you... argh, I meant to get to the scents and test and write and test and write and test and... oh you understand the system! And it's all for you. So don't say that I wouldn't think of you :DD
Well, do you all have a guilty conscience that you are always so mean to me, when I only think of you? No? Bah, I'll be mean to you. Somehow... someday... if I ever come up with something mean!!
But as long as I test scents, like this lengling here, who with his name (À la Carte) only reminds me that I somehow get a little hungry again, although I ate only two hours ago *sigh*
A little later I continue to smell chocolaty gourmands and resins, but now mixed with some patchouli, or at least something that smells a little like patchouli to me, after all, this scent is not specified. Hm, a scent like pistachio could also be in there, ... yes, it does smell a little bit like it, but you don't notice this scent in the scent cloud, but only if you sniff exactly at the sprayed place. In the background (but not quite as weak as the pistachios) there is pink pepper, which gives the fragrance a small but fine spice.
Otherwise, the fragrance remains rather gourmandig also later, even if one can smell the vanilla most (as so often and usual) (especially in the later basis), as well as the resins.
The fragrance lasts for a long time. So you can smell him for at least 12 hours before he gets weaker.
Hmm... somehow it was just right to test the scent now. Because it has become cooler in Germany,... there is no more this over 30 degrees hot heat with a humidity of felt 10000% like in Thailand :DD
So you can now test fragrances like À la Carte at just the right time, with its gourmand and resinous notes that could otherwise be overwhelming on hot days.
Anyway, I liked the smell. Of course I also have to say that the fragrance smells like many other fragrances with resinous and gourmand notes. But that doesn't matter, since this applies to all brands and many fragrances now smell quite similar. À la Carte belongs for me to the well made gourmands of these scents, which one could test if one likes such scents.
In addition, the Sillage and the shelf life is also quite good, so that you get much of the scent when you use it in autumn and winter. For everyday use, it would have to be dosed less, since it could appear quite overpresented in offices or something else (and possibly get on the nerves of others in the long run). But to celebrate or to go out you can dose it higher if you want to look nice and tasty :D
Well, that's it again from me, so then, until the next time, which means, until tomorrow!... Maybe anyway... :DD

The fragrance:
Hm, the scent starts kind of delicious, like a tasty dessert. I smell sweet vanilla and gourmand chocolate notes... which probably come from toffees. The resinous fragrances such as styrax, frankincense and oud, which make the scent much stronger from the sillage, but also smell quite nice together with the vanilla and the gourmand scents, also work quickly.

The Sillage and the shelf life:
The charisma of the fragrance is quite good. At the beginning still bombastic, the intensity soon goes down again a bit, but is generally quite good, so that one could notice the scent for a while at one or at one also from a greater distance. The fragrance lasts for a long time. So you can smell him for at least 12 hours before he gets weaker.
The bottle:
The bottle is rectangular, but has nicely smoothed edges and a thicker bottom. The thin or narrow label, which seems to be made of fabric, was placed over two bottle sides, where you can see the label on one side and the name of the fragrance on the other. The lid is chrome-plated and you can see the brand name engraved again on the upper side. It's a nice bottle. Hmm... somehow it was just right to test the scent now.
