provençal charm
François Demachy has managed to rise to the top of my favorite fragrance artists in recent months.
He gives his fragrance artworks a signature all of his own, which always refers to him; no matter which company he uses his nose for.
Thus, there is always a subtle aromatic reference to his roots in Provence, his hometown of Grasse, in his creations.
Above him are in my very personal scale of values only the fragrance creators of the Guerlain family, which also includes Patricia de Nïcolai as Jean-Paul's niece.
But this is open to the top and not set in stone.
The house Givenchy has never been known for loud fragrances; here rather the elegant understatement is cultivated.
So also the "Wässerchen" of this brand have a very own magic.
Already "Eau de Givenchy" has crept with its light-footed beauty in my heart.
On those days when actually "nothing" is already too much, it is a wonderfully unobtrusive companion.
But this pleasant peculiarity I had already appreciated by a corresponding comment (see "The sister called water").
And now "Eaudemoiselle": it sounds so wonderfully old-fashioned!
And immediately reminds me of the scene from Gotthold Ephraim Lessing's "Minna von Barnhelm", in which Major von Tellheim's former constable Werner meets the somewhat flirtatious maid Franziska for the first time: "Frauenzimmerchen, Frauenzimmerchen - I see she is pretty and is probably quite a stranger ..."
For me, there is nothing disrespectful about this "little woman"; after all, this form of address contains so much astonished tenderness and respect of the common man towards this young woman.
So, too, "Eaudemoiselle" is an eminently wearable gift to all women.
If it seems at first glance by the freshness of tangerines and Amalfi lemons almost simple and youthful, like a delicate just budding blossom of the feminine, but soon basil tart spice points to a very different, more feminine development of this fragrance creature.
Didn't Lampedusa in "The Leopard" already tell of an alley in Palermo where basil pots stand on the windowsills in the evening, indicating that the ladies behind these windows are not averse to a gallant interlude?
Basil can thus be quite more than just the herb that gives pasta the Mediterranean flavor.
In the heart note, "Eaudemoiselle" therefore also becomes a little more adult, loses the delicate melting of this youthful freshness: the aforementioned flower bud opens.
For the noble rose with its feminine magic makes this fragrance no longer seem quite so innocent. Especially after she surrendered to the fragrant embrace of ylang-ylang.
Both develop a very special fragrance relationship with each other.
The sweet warm sensuality of musk and tonka bean is thus the fitting conclusion for this fragrance women's room.
Nothing is heavy or intrusive here, everything is and light and carries the magic and the unmistakable light of Provence in itself.
Fruity freshness and tart spice meet fragrant floral beauty before sinking together in a warm embrace.
Thus, "Eaudemoiselle" is a graceful fragrance creature that charmingly and smilingly accompanies you through the day and provides freshness and joy through each spray anew.
