Delicate and gentle, but not a real sin!
Sin! That's the name of this fragrance here from Babylon Berlin that I tested the other day. Really, sin, you can't put a scent with a name like that in front of me. You know how sometimes I have really dirty things on my mind and I can't help but get some of it out in my comments. It's like a trigger where I just have to blab away!
SIN! Yeah man, full bad...all of us sin, in whatever form I guess. Us dudes probably sin with the help of thousands, dirty internet sites (or,... if you're an antique collector, then with the help of magazines, whose pages are hopefully not yet full of stickers :D),... maybe even so often that it can't be healthy :D
And you ladies? Of course you also sin! You don't even have to hide that. But of course you would never admit it and instead prefer to say that your biggest sin of the day was to have eaten two complete bars of chocolate all by yourself again, and that BEFORE MORNING, right? Yes yes yes...
You think I'm talking big nonsense again? Well, don't give me a fragrance with a name like Sin. Especially not if the manufacturer is called Babylon Berlin, because then you could also think of the allegory "The whore Babylon"... man, this could go on forever... :D
But: Of course I have myself now and then in the grip (boah, I bet even that sounded ambiguous now...), so I can report concentrated also on the fragrance itself...
Later and also at the end, the fragrance remains largely unchanged, well, with one exception: the pepper decreases over time until it is completely gone. After that, the fragrance remains powdery soft and of course also sweetish with the described notes. All in all, a not necessarily particularly spectacular, but still beautiful fragrance.
Anyway, it is suitable for using it in the evening or for going out, but could work well in smaller doses during the day for everyday use on cooler days.
Well, that's about it for this fragrance here. That's all that can be said about Sin without mentioning more embarrassing things like the solo gaudi hinted at in the introduction, right? Anyway, that's it from me again. Have a nice evening everyone and see you :)
PS: When you ladies read the two bars of chocolate earlier, you must have gotten ravenous now, right? Mu ha ha, I can already see how you just armed with a glass of Nutella and a spoon sitting in front of Parfumo, and all thanks to me, he he he :DD

The fragrance:
At the beginning, a huge, soft cloud of resinous-soft scents comes towards me. I smell a mix of myrrh, frankincense and benzoin. Nice and soft with a very light fruity touch. Then the pepper kicks in, where you might think this sounds rather incongruous with the soft scents. But no, even if the pepper tingles a little in the nose, it fits in very well with the other fragrance notes and makes the fragrance quite autumnal-wintery. Later and also at the end, the fragrance remains largely unchanged, well, with one exception: the pepper decreases over time until it is completely gone. After that, the fragrance remains powdery soft and of course also sweetish with the described notes. All in all, a not necessarily particularly spectacular, but still beautiful fragrance.
The sillage and the durability:
The sillage is quite okay. It's not weak, so others can definitely smell it, but also not so strong that everyone could feel smothered (unless of course you overdo it with the application, but this is true for all fragrances). The longevity is good, with the scent lasting eight to twelve hours, depending on how much was applied.The bottle:
The bottle... hmpf... am I wrong, or does the bottle look like a lady? Yes really, look: This form, the (angular) curves... well, to some extent anyway :D In any case, I find the flacon but succeeded, because it also looks different than a standard rectangular flacon. Color-wise it is also quite nice and I also like the "necklace", in which a golden plaque with the brand name hangs. Conclusion:
So, sexy or even like sin the fragrance doesn't seem to me now. He is just a nice, but a little too general autumn-winter fragrance without great strengths (or weaknesses) and smells like most might already like it, if you did not already have so some such resinous-soft fragrances perhaps, while the pepper is already something that does not occur in many such fragrances. If you're into these types of scents, but haven't tried many of them yourself, then you might want to give it a look. Otherwise, apart from the initial pepper, you will not be able to discover much new in this fragrance for yourself. Anyway, it is suitable for using it in the evening or for going out, but could work well in smaller doses during the day for everyday use on cooler days.
Well, that's about it for this fragrance here. That's all that can be said about Sin without mentioning more embarrassing things like the solo gaudi hinted at in the introduction, right? Anyway, that's it from me again. Have a nice evening everyone and see you :)
