A warm, rainy day on Heligoland
During our summer vacation in 2023 in Büsum on the North Sea, we decided to visit the island of Heligoland for the very first time after all the years we had been returning here again and again.
Anyone who knows Heligoland knows that there's not much to see there. A nice town center (if you can call it that) surrounded by various duty-free stores.
As I buy a fragrance as a souvenir every time I go on vacation and then associate it with me forever, I naturally had to visit one of these stores.
So I smelled my way through all the stores and pretended that not every store had the same selection.
At the time, I was still a complete beginner when it came to perfumes. I had only just started to really get to grips with fragrances, but I had already smelled pretty much every kind of scent.
So it was always something special for me to smell a fragrance that was completely new to me.
And there it was, the Bvlgari Man Rain Essence. In my opinion, not a very pretty bottle, surrounded by a younger couple who had just been recommended the fragrance by a saleswoman.
I listened a little inconspicuously and, after the two of them had decided against the fragrance, decided to spray it on.
I wasn't expecting much because, as I said, I didn't find the bottle very appealing.
But the fragrance won me over straight away! It reminded me of the generally rainy day on this beautiful little island. For me, it was the scent of Heligoland to take with me, so to speak.
When I wear the fragrance today and close my eyes, I see myself sitting in a beach chair by the sea on Heligoland in the evening in a light drizzle at around 23 degrees with my favorite music in my ears and enjoying the moment.
So much for my not really objective opinion of this fragrance. Many thanks to everyone who actually read through it. :D
From a purely objective point of view, I find the fragrance really nice, but not particularly special. In the meantime, I've smelled a few fragrances that were at least similar.
Unfortunately, I find the durability/sillage very weak.
This was my first review on Parfumo, so don't be too harsh. :D
