Pretty In Pink
The perfume deities led me to a shop where Elizabeth Ardens - Red Door Revealed was a silly 17,00 for 100 ML! As a 'self respecting' Perfumista *cough* ; ) I could not walk by without picking up a bottle!
And I am soo glad I did! At first spray I'm transported to a dressing room of a theatre or ballet? Flowers everywhere for opening night, the smell of expensive rose scented body powder (the kind that comes in a luxurious keepsake container with a big white fluffy puff) lingers in the air. Chanel lipsticks in various shades of pink are carelessly left on the vanities.
The orchid and peony are the first notes I discern...hmmm...then something soft and very powdery surrounds me (I have no idea what guaiac wood smells like, but I bet it has something to do with this delicious powder effect) Then rose and champaca join in and in the dry-down a hint of musk with the smallest touch of oak moss. The dry-down is very persistent; this scent never looses its floral-powder beauty. It's strong and soft at the same time. It's innocent but not 'childish' and makes you feel 'pampered'.
It's a very yummy smell, reminiscent of Versace Baby Rose, yet more mature. Baby Rose is more like a playful after shower/before bed cuddle scent, whereas RDR has a persistent feel of tender beauty and pretty feelings about it. It's very feminine. Not in an overtly sexy way but rather in a sensual and peek-a-boo floral-powder way. I can't stop sniffing my wrists when I spray this and I have noticed that this clean (not too clean), soft floral powdery darling also gets the approval of men.
Perfect for people who adore soft powdery florals that have enough musk to give them a slight sex-appeal without being too *aggressive*.
Silage is: "pretty florals and expensive body power are on my skin" -- Longevity is very decent for such a soft scent, on me 6+ hours. To my nose its suitable for all occasions since its pretty and soft nature makes it very versatile. Another EA scent that didn't disappoint me.
