Flash Commentary - Orange Cake on the 'Panther'
BRAND
The young brand Fiilit (supposed to echo 'Feel it' as much as 'Fill it', more on that in a moment) offers "travel fragrances" (Parfums du Voyage), and doubly so. Each fragrance is dedicated to a specific typical travel destination and attempts to capture the corresponding mood through scent imagery and the use of ingredients typical of the place. In addition, the fragrances are also optimized for practical use while traveling, such as special pretty cartridges into which 11-ml travel sprayers can be inserted.
Besides this double specialization in wanderlust (in the current pandemic situation perhaps compensatory just the right thing), the brand has dedicated itself to (almost) everything that is useful for a clear conscience: Slow-Cosméthique label, use of about 95% natural raw materials (chemical fixatives for better shelf life are allowed under certain conditions), partly organic raw materials, sustainable packaging, refill option (hence "fill"), vegan: all inclusive.
In this context, certainly no intention, but from the point of view of gender justice is fitting that the label has three female perfumers (without : and *) permanently under contract, who are responsible for all creations.
That it is a thoroughly French brand, can also be seen by the fact that the English of the Internet presence is abysmal.
SELECTION
Actually, I was interested in the cologne-like fragrance 'Saudade - Amazon'. But since you can order for small prices very nice sample collections directly from the company, I have first sent me the whole program in a cute little bag and test me so through. Of the fragrances tasted so far, this is my favorite.
The fragrance is dedicated to the destination 'Atlas', which is not to allude to the fact that travel is currently only possible with a finger on the map, but to the mountains in Morocco. In my opinion, Morocco is the perfumers' dreamland at the moment anyway (Tauer with all kinds of desert things, Parfum d'Empire with Azemour...). Like each of the house's fragrances, this one still has a middle name, in this case 'Mazhar', 'the honoured one'. It is a masculine given name, perhaps also a Moroccan toponym.
THUFT
The fragrance notes are quite predominantly citrus (with 'Mandora' is meant here not the eponymous musical instrument, whose smell is unknown to me and which is probably also rather rarely dissolved in alcohol, but the cross between MANDarine and ORAnge) and are perceived here by most previous reviewers also so.
Not by me. I would not swear that I would have noticed without the pyramid at all that it is a citrus fragrance. If one knows it then, is in any case plausible that no lemon or bergamot is in it, he also does not seem me in the least colognisch. The hesperides are deep orange, sweet and bitter. There is a little green note as well. 'Mazhar', meanwhile, is not at all fresh in a vernacular way. Thermally, the scent is very, very warm; colour-wise, ochre; tactilely, it is loamy-soft. I have associations with a finely spiced cake with candied bitter orange and a delicately crumbly shortcrust pastry, or even with (minimally damp) warm clayey earth (perhaps on the Atlas Mountains a day after the rains).
ASSESSMENT
For me, one of those 8.5s (heading towards 9) that have what it takes to become everyday carry favorites: Before my 10-ers I have yes often so much reverence that they are museum-like in the fragrance cabinet, if I buy them at all. The durability is very decent for a fragrance that is at least from the rough direction of "natural/organic", the sillage of medium goodness. Against the price (on the manufacturer's site) of currently 62 euros / 100 ml (including a currently running general discount of 30%), although the fragrance is also to 50 ml and to 11 ml to have, I can recall absolutely nothing.
PASSING LINE FROM 'VOYAGE, VOYAGE' (DESIRELESS)
