On vacation, ghosts are cast out!
Oooh, Bali! That sounds like a vacation! One thinks there of dreamlike beaches, great food as well as a generally beautiful stay. Just like it is on vacation. Especially if it is a quite exotic country for us like Indonesia.
And especially in such exotic countries the most absurd or strange things can happen, where you have to laugh a lot afterwards. At that time in Thailand for example, which is located in the proximity of Indonesia and therefore also belongs to the exotic countries, we were once in the evening on a large bazaar/market on the way, where a good friend bought a great bag. A few minutes later, however, she noticed that there was no zipper thing on the bag to open the zipper. We went back to the shop assistant and wanted to exchange the bag, but somehow she ticked it out. Suddenly she thought that the bag had not been bought from her stand and called my girlfriend a "very bad person", who actually only wanted to have a functioning product. After that, however, only strange, garish and incomprehensible screeching tones came from her. Somehow it sounded like "Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu", which sounded as if she was trying to expel an evil spirit or demon, especially in combination with the "Walk-Away" hand gesture. So we couldn't exchange the bag, other tourists nearby looked scared, and finally we went away from their stand. But to this day it's a story we still have to laugh at, because this "Huuuuuu sound effect" of the woman just can't get out of our heads anymore :DD
Be that as it may, I hope that I will come back soon to such a great and above all funny holiday and take more funny memories from there :) And now let's see if this fragrance also reminds of such great places as Thailand, Indonesia or the region there in general and smells of a great holiday at all :)
*run quickly to the kitchen, look in the fridge*
Pooh, no, everything is fine, but I should consume them soon :D
But the fragrance actually has a slightly milky-creamy beginning, which later also reminds of sun cream and thus spreads a great holiday feeling! Then I smell the clove, which smells spicy from the background and gives the fragrance a certain spice. The sweetish notes should come from the tuberoses... these flowery notes smell really sweet here. Since the fragrance is also a little resiny-soft, I think the benzoin is already working now.
Later, the sweet scents come mainly from vanilla. And in addition, the benzoin makes the fragrance particularly soft, and the creamy fragrance from the beginning gradually turns into a powdery fragrance.
The shelf life is quite good, but that's no wonder with vanilla fragrances. The scent can be perceived for more than ten hours, even if it should become very weak from the point of view of the sillage much later.
Soo... yeah, I liked the smell. Of course as so often not to wear it yourself, because it smells very feminine, but I just imagine that it must smell great with you girls, aaaah.... D
It's very soft (like a woman's skin), very soft (like a woman's skin) and smells great (like a woman's skin, unless she's eaten extremely thinning things like onions, garlic etc. :DD). In any case it pleases as said and smells quite sweetly, is however not so heavy, so that it can be carried also very well in the spring and even in the summer, both during the day and in the evening!
But the scent doesn't really remind me of vacations like the places described in the introduction, because strictly speaking it just smells like vanilla and benzoin, even if it should remind me a little of sun cream at the beginning (which can be associated with a beach and the sea!). But well, it doesn't matter. Because you could wear the scent for it on holiday, especially if you're on the road in places where all five meters of street beaches with kitchens stand around, from which all kinds of smells fill the air and you want to smell something nice every now and then besides all the fat smells in hot and sultry surroundings :D But even if these smells should be stronger, it doesn't matter at all, as it tastes really good and something like that simply belongs to such places on holiday. Apart from that there are more mosquitoes buzzing around in such countries, and it is said that these annoying creatures are attracted even more by perfumes, so that one should perhaps rather do without a scent after all? Pah... but what am I talking about? I'm writing here in a fragrance forum that you shouldn't use a fragrance on holiday! Nobody's gonna stick to it!!! And... I probably won't either, mu ha ha ha!
Besides, you are distracted by all the stuff you want to try anyway,... from "normal" chicken, pork and beef skewers to skewers with prawns, squids or even various insects, hmmmm :D
In any case you can try this scent if you like sweet and powdery scents with vanilla!

The fragrance:
Hm, you won't believe it, but the immediate beginning smells to me like opening a bottle of Müllermilch. And that reminds me... has my garbage milk actually expired by now? Aaaargh no! *run quickly to the kitchen, look in the fridge*
Pooh, no, everything is fine, but I should consume them soon :D

The Sillage and the shelf life:
The charisma is good, so that the fragrance will smell good for a while. No firecracker, but quite good for a somewhat looser scent as I said. The shelf life is quite good, but that's no wonder with vanilla fragrances. The scent can be perceived for more than ten hours, even if it should become very weak from the point of view of the sillage much later.
The bottle:
The bottle is rectangular and high. The glass has a color gradient from pink to blue in pastel look. There is no label, the name of the fragrance is written directly on the bottle in beautiful handwriting, together with flower patterns. This makes the bottle look particularly beautiful. Soo... yeah, I liked the smell. Of course as so often not to wear it yourself, because it smells very feminine, but I just imagine that it must smell great with you girls, aaaah.... D
