But Harry Potter won't like that!
Hey, guys, how you doing? I'm writing today about the fragrance "Ermione" by I Profumi di d'Annunzio, and you have to admit that the name Ermione sounds like Hermione, that is, this girl from Harry Potter. Of course the scent has nothing to do with Harry Potter or Hermione, hence my title.
But that doesn't matter, at least not for me, since I never had much use for Harry Potter anyway. It just wasn't my time anymore to get excited about it. So how do I know who Hermione is anyway? Well... funny story: After the Harry Potter actors had all "finally" grown up at some point, i.e. 18 years old, and above all had appeared in other films, the Internet was literally flooded with fake nude photos of the actors (well, actually more than 90% of the Hermione actress Emma Watson), where Hermione did all kinds of "disgraceful" things with her,... or also... with Harry Potter's... um... well... wand. And how do I know this? ... Well, I just know, don't ask stupid questions!!! DDD
It's just a well-known Internet rule that all famous people are digitally stripped at least once (which is especially annoying for the famous people, because they can't do anything about it)... that's what happened to Emma Watson, and since a few years with other girls, who all guys have been attracted to during a movie or series, like Maisie Williams, who I'm sure you all know: She played Arya Stark in Game of Thrones, but it's rather funny that you take off the Game of Thrones actresses naked, since in every Game of Thrones episode at least three actresses (and actors) were shown making out anyway (which is surely the real reason for the immense success of the series,... it sounds clichéd, but "sex sells" actually is :DD).
And no, man, I have nothing to do with all that, I just tell the facts, besides I'm not really into Emma Watson and I've never looked for her specifically (but don't believe me, tssss), I find Emma Stone much more attractive, for example, or, ... of course (and don't roll your eyes just because the actress to be mentioned here happens to play Supergirl...) Melissa Benoist, aaaaah... :D
Well, to cut a long story short: Now comes the fragrance description of Ermione, which sounds just like Hermione! Period. That's all. Out. Scent! :D
The sweetness of the fragrance soon comes from the amber, although in the background the sweetness also seems to smell slightly of honey.
A little later, the fragrance continues to smell fresh, even if the green notes have weakened a little and are now and then a bit stuffy. The sweetness remains soft and powdery, with a mix of amber and blackcurrant.
Somehow the scent in the background also seems to have a light, fruity note that reminds me of apple, but this can only happen to me.
In the end it smells soft to me because of the amber and especially the vanilla, but the scent is still a little bit stuffy now and then, which is still okay, because I don't mind that much and the stuffness is not as high as in the middle part. All in all the scent is nice, but nothing more, because strictly speaking it smells quite banal.
The bottle! The bottle is a roundish or disc-shaped container with a long, graceful neck in a beautiful pastel green hue. On the front of the bottle, the name of the fragrance appears in bronze-red lettering, and the cap is the same colour, almost like the end of a column, and has a small pull handle. A nice bottle.
Well, this is not as bad as it may sound, so I can say that I find the fragrance on the whole quite okay and would recommend it for a test. It is usable mainly in spring as a loose day scent, but it could also be used in the office or at work. What bothers me the most is rather the price, as the scent is offered in the range of 140-180 euros and despite of the nice scent it smells much too banal. There are hardly any recognizable features in the scent, and you don't have such a "wow"-effect when you smell it. You can get such scents at other brands for a fraction of this price, which means for me that the purchase is not really worth it.
Soo...damn, I just can't explain how I know "certain pictures" of Emma Watson... so stop asking about it. I should never have mentioned it, tsss... I'm much more into Melissa Benoist anyway. But not because she's Supergirl, but because she looks super cute :DD And yes, I've seen pictures of her, too... uh... where she... you know what? I'll just finish this topic quickly... :D
But that's my final point and well, I wish you all a nice evening, take care and see you next time :)

The smell:
The fragrance begins with great, fresh and green notes, which should be the green leaves indicated here. Sweet and powdery blackcurrants are also included. Then there is jasmine, and every now and then the rose flashes up. The sweetness of the fragrance soon comes from the amber, although in the background the sweetness also seems to smell slightly of honey.
A little later, the fragrance continues to smell fresh, even if the green notes have weakened a little and are now and then a bit stuffy. The sweetness remains soft and powdery, with a mix of amber and blackcurrant.
Somehow the scent in the background also seems to have a light, fruity note that reminds me of apple, but this can only happen to me.
In the end it smells soft to me because of the amber and especially the vanilla, but the scent is still a little bit stuffy now and then, which is still okay, because I don't mind that much and the stuffness is not as high as in the middle part. All in all the scent is nice, but nothing more, because strictly speaking it smells quite banal.
The Sillage and the durability:
The Sillage is better than expected (i.e. for a fresh scent), but overall it is still rather below average, so that the rising cloud of scent will be perceived more from close up. The durability is also not the best, so that the scent remains only quite weak on the skin after four to five hours. The bottle! The bottle is a roundish or disc-shaped container with a long, graceful neck in a beautiful pastel green hue. On the front of the bottle, the name of the fragrance appears in bronze-red lettering, and the cap is the same colour, almost like the end of a column, and has a small pull handle. A nice bottle.
Conclusion:
Soo, this scent here is not bad, even if it has some weaknesses for me personally. The Sillage, for example, is a little weak, but that's not the point, because many fresh smells are rather weak in their charisma and you just have to live with it. What bothers me here is the slightly stuffy note, which fortunately only appears every now and then, especially in the middle part, which I find a bit daunting with many scents, as I simply don't find it that pleasant.
