Suddenly you like dark...
Chanel No 5...yaaaaaa...the classic par excellence! He's never consciously come under my nose before. Since I am still at the beginning of my perfume career and the fragrance is a classic, I thought....make a blind souk!
What shall I say? I am now 38 and have just gotten used to buying gourmands with a good feeling or I just don't like them anymore. Accordingly, I'm looking for fragrances that make me look like a woman with class and taste.
I thought No 5 would grant my wish. But maybe I'm in a midlife crisis... and I'm not ready for him yet.
I have noticed through and with him that I still need something warm or subtly sweet to feel good. The first thought actually went to my grandma Marlies, grandma Liesbeth and grandma Lotti, who is actually called Lieselotte.
This does not mean that No5 is bad or even a granny scent - no - it is certainly well done! But this generation carries it with preference! And NOW -at my age- my nose and the synapses in my brain don't like this scent 100% - not even for nostalgic reasons.
I once heard or read that the sense of taste should change every 7 years. I haven't googled my comment to see if this is true. And I once heard or read that in old age people tend to use dark chocolate rather than milk chocolate. When I look at the sweets of our elders in the family, it really seems that way! There are lots of dark and noble drops, men's chocolate, men's cake, Black Forest kirsch and Merci loves to eat dark and dark! It seems as if in old age one wants to renounce sweetening and devote oneself to herbs.
Also in the care, dry and classic fragrances are a statement but mostly with class...Lux, Maja or Cleopatra soap pieces, Old Spice, Tabac, Aramis Devin and even.... No5.
I love the older generation - they are mostly loving and honest, intelligent and experienced, life stories are mostly amusing or painful - advice sometimes unwanted but quite helpful! Respect and above all help by us younger generation they have always deserved and I find also for their extraordinarily good taste!
BUT when do I like bittersweet and Chanel No5? Am I supposed to wait till I love him or let him go? Perfume lasts a few years... a dark chocolate doesn't...
