Angel in the forest
This starts out with sweet honey, dried fruit, dark chocolate and a very earthy patchouli. At first it takes a turn into the sweet gourmand direction and gives me lovely wafts.
It's definitely part of the large extended family of Mugler's Angel. The patch/honey/gourmand structure is very familiar from Angel and its flankers. On other sites this gets compated to Angel Muse, but that one is much creamier and smoother.

The patchouli in here is really herbal and earthy, and after a couple of hours it takes over the scent and creates a foresty vibe. The honey is still there, but quieter and waxier than before, the chocolate and dried fruits are only an accent and sit close to the skin. It all feels very autumnal and would fit the mood while walking through the woods on a rainy day. I wouldn't have thought of a market in Bali like the marketing blurb says, but I've never been there, so maybe I'm wrong.

This is a nice scent, but it doesn't bring anything really new to the table. They drydown is a bit disappointing after the lovely heart phase. It's a weaker like for me, better than just okay, but far from a love.

...and not a bit quiet
My mother has always been a perfume lover. And she always liked it flashy and loud. While she loved classic chypre fragrances as a young woman, she jumped on the gourmet bandwagon in the nineties with the launch of Mugler's Angel. She was particularly taken with these fragrances for their opulence, sweetness and their ability to fill rooms. Even though she is actually not a particularly loud person, she loves to communicate with her appearance. Because her style of dress including her glasses was always offensive, loud, flashy and colourful
My mother is now seventy years old and her current favourite fragrance is Scandal by Jean Paul Gaultier. She also likes fragrances like Teint de Neige by Villoresi or Micallef's Mon Parfum. Her perfumes must be sweet and room-filling. When I visit her, the first thing she always comes across in the apartment is her very special scent cloud. And that's exactly what I perceive at Dear Diary
This is an opulent gourmand who doesn't dally. It starts immediately with an intense honey note and sweet flowers. The bees can come! Despite the almost teeth pulling sweetness, Dear Diary is and remains perfume through and through and will by no means become too food safe. A fragrance that wants to provoke. If it had a color, it would be bright red. With the sweet chocolate and its fine patchouly note, it is always perfectly balanced. I see clear parallels to Scandal, especially when it comes to the honey note. Even if this scent is of course a bit more nobly composed and - oh wonder - lasts even longer than the Gaultier. And I can also see traits of Angel and Mon Parfum in Dear Diary. Yes, that's how Mama smells. Like this and no other. One thing is clear. This is the sample she gets. And I bet she'll buy this scent too
Now it is so that the reference fragrances that I mentioned, especially Scandal, if you believe the marketing and all the other gibberish that you hear here and there, should be reserved for very young women, even girls. And a 70-year-old should wear something like that? Yes, she does. With pride. And that scent is absolutely wonderful on her
Because to this day she is not a bit quiet when it comes to fragrance and style. Stay just the way you are, mom!
Many thanks to Gandix for the sample, which I will pass on soon :)

Gourmand or gourmet?
So far I have given the so-called "sweet gourmet fragrances" a wide berth.
Although I like to eat sweets, but preferably with dark chocolate.
I find things like cotton candy, marshmallows, vanillin, penetrating caramel syrup and sugary-synthetic fruit essences really creepy Smell like that? No way! Br /> The term gourmand, which means "overeater" or wolverine, fits to this, while gourmet means the gourmet.
Now a fragrance has reached me in a hiking package that I would otherwise never have gotten to know, already the brand completely unknown, and then the name sweet-gourmand!
But everything develops completely unexpectedly:
The scent takes me on a visit to the test kitchen of an excellent patissier. The master is currently creating new dark chocolate pralines and truffles with wonderful fillings.
From the large pot, the warm, liquid chocolate coating made from selected cocoa varieties, perfectly conched, and waiting to be used as an immersion bath.
In the small pots are the different fillings, whose fine spices combine harmoniously with the chocolate already in the air.
My nose is sticking to my arm, I could easily re-enact the orgasm scene from "Harry and Sally" :-)
Also the durability is great:
After hours, when the spices and the sweetness of the dried fruit have evaporated, the darkest amber I have ever smelled remains on my skin for a long, long time.
A real gourmet scent, thank you very much, dear Gandix!

An erotic feast for the senses
I don't want any Schkolade
I'd rather....
Is actually my motto,
But this one.....
Short bite in my nose,
But then I cost
Have a milk beard on the upper lip
Chocolate milk
Only moderately sweet
A hint of vanilla flavor
The honey drips thickly from my lips.
What a delicious brew
Patchouli brings a delicate earthy note,
that blends in wonderfully.
Brown, like cocoa powder on chocolate milk.
The whole thing is bedded on a wonderfully chocolaty amber-benzoe-basis.
Accompanied by diffuse, extremely gentle seasoning.
Sooo soft.
Well, I thought I didn't like chocolaty scents.
That's a misconception.
Gentle and very interesting, like all Dear Diary fragrances I've tested so far.
It's worth testing
