Iris elite where are u?
tested using a sample box from the brand, I saw a good rating for this perfume.

the opening is chaotic it smells of an old smell, like a person who puts on perfume to mask bad smells.

fortunately there is a good smell of iris which masks this a little, then after 2 hours or more it evolves and I end up with a copy of the versace iris d elite which is very pleasant probably thanks to the iris and amber also present in versace perfume.

what a shame to have to go through this first phase before getting this good smell.
a more masculine perfume, more for autumn and winter. the sillage is medium and the duration correct although less long than the elite iris.

a good alternative which ended up convincing me.

The True Love Of The Queen
You somehow stumble across the bottle of Legend automatically when looking through the bottle pictures of the brand. It's also on the home page of the perfume house. No other bottle has a bust like a crown. No other fragrance is called Legend and should stand more for Queen Boudicca.

A strong woman who stood up for her homeland, her family, her people and above all against oppression. A woman who demanded equal rights, recognition and in return only spotted and experienced violence against herself, her daughters and her people from the Roman conquerors. A guerrilla queen who took revenge with such brutality as she herself had felt. And so that their place in history would be claimed and taken forever.

What's a warrior queen's scent supposed to be like? Certainly not floral-gourmandig. Life was rough. The war has always been. The land and the people didn't smell like flowers. So neither is her queen.

It is the ubiquitous violets that grew throughout Britain that Boadicea the Victorious likes to mix with woody-smoky oud and musk. An unsweet, almost rugged DNA. In addition, there is an earthiness that gives the scent an impression of "after the rain". Wet, fertile soil. Maybe it's also been rumpled by the fight. Something similar can also be found at Elaborate.

But somehow BtV manages to create an aura of dark, reinforced leather. Like worn armour. Battle tanned. Forged to the body of its wearer in battle. This is probably also due to the oud in combination with the violets, which constantly contribute this chord over the entire course of the fragrance. The scent never comes up with big leaps or even animal notes. It even remains very constant with moderate sillage and high durability. Floral aspects, in the sense of a rose oud, are not to be feared.

Legend is a very self-confident fragrance, which I would call leathery-spicy-smoky.

This Boadicea gives its wearers above all an honest picture of the rugged beauty of a country with history. Joined in the portrait of a strong woman who stood up for what she loved.

Family. Home. Honor. Legacy.

That's her scent.

Hands in the sky!
...come on, let's be happy! Ten naked frisians! Malle is only 11† a year!

Problem: I smell a violet, and I don't like a violet, so: Why?
I used to like violets, but I don't anymore. I can't really explain why. Suddenly violet is no longer my thing.
Not so long ago, Veilchen and I wrote nice, funny, cuddly mails, sent each other little fragrance presents, and gave each other a coffee; everything was so funny and always to be seen with a wink when Veilchen did something, and leaned out of the window strangely forwards and so on, I found Veilchen great. Loud, but great now I find violets full of stupid, I don't answer anymore, the violet, me neither, well, that's just how it is; I even took all the pictures of the violet, the one where the violet was on, from the fireplace ledge, and packed them away.
Well, that's what the violet gets out of it, it can watch it by itself.

But violet isn't everything in life; after all, you have all the other stuff in the pyramid (which unfortunately can't stink up against violet.) Everyone else leaves the stage to him.
A much too big stage, if you ask me.

Conclusion:
You can stretch and stretch as much as you want, and try to reach for the stars, those who don't want don't want. And tin doesn't make jokes either.
Too bad.
