On Father's Day, Mother found him again.
... in my bright red leather teen make-up case
Filled with some other over things from the 80s and 90s.
The first thing I saw when opening the treasure chest to my great delight was PERLE NOIR, also Avon, and very close to the vintage COCO CHANEL in terms of scent, silage & durability.
But just less sprayer in it.
BOGNER BATH & BODY also made me squeak (but also almost empty, of course) as well as some miniatures, which surprisingly were still at least half full:
VENICE by Yves Rocher, JOOP - LE BAIN, LA PERLA, FENDI, ELIZABETH TAYLOR - PASSION, MONDI.
And another sample (with packaging) of the NICKY DE SAINT PHALLE perfume, yeah!
But then I saw the bottle, the unforgotten one.
It's called that for a reason, the smell.
Optically alone, it is technically impossible to forget him.
This beautiful little bottle, something between 20's boudoir charm, Orient and hippiedom.
And which one could already see that the content is not arbitrary.
Nothing can be arbitrary.
The smell hadn't been in my head for years, but I knew before I opened the plug that I was about to be delighted and happy again!
And so it was.
It hasn't lost any of its radiance, although I got it from my mom in the late 80s and she already had it in the 70s No 'I-you-roar'-you-um ka-rubber, but rather in a slightly elitist way present and very dense.
Kind of flowery, but without any flowers. Very spicy, but without that typical 70s flair.
And simply zero comparable with everything that is offered today in (mainstream) fragrances. Rather the complete opposite of this olfactory offer.
But you can already tell that the fragrance is "old", in the sense of "from another time".
And yet I find him neither madamy, nor tantig and certainly not oma-esque.
It's more like this:
if it were launched today, it would certainly be a niche in the 150-200 Euro for 50 ml range.
Like a collaboration of Francesca Bianchi and the BOGUE creator maybe ?
Who want to house their scented DNA together and UNFORGETTABLE would be their "lovechild".
That's exactly how I feel about this great perfume.
Noble.
Special.
Portable.
Huge heart of mine!
P.S.: all scents are still ok, none tilted or even weaker, yay!
