Scandal Noodle
When the new school year began, a tall, attractive girl appeared in our classroom as a "sitter".

She wore her brown hair down to her waist and looked around the classroom with her big eyes.
And - oops - she sat down next to me.

I was flattered, because she radiated such self assurance.

She was clever, but not industrious - and when the teachers came to her snotty, she would snot back.

I was also under her personal protection and she threw herself in front of me, like the mother lion in front of her cub when a teacher came to me.

She liked to attract attention - and had a charming but provocative manner.

Besides, she was never at a loss for an answer - which annoyed the teachers - but also impressed them.

I emulated her - and soon we were both unpopular with the educators.

But she taught me to stand by myself - regardless of the authorities who wanted to make me an " x for a u ".

So Scandal would have suited her, because she was neither afraid of conflict nor did she avoid confrontation.

Because this fragrance also makes a statement - and remains likeable.
He has a mind of his own - like his wearer.

My Anne became a teacher, by the way.

Bubblegum deluxe
"Scandal" is a scent I've been confronted with for years. My mother often wears it and it's something special: Sugar-sweet honey, every bee gets jealous.
Now a sample of the new flanker "SO SCANDAL!" fell into my hands... and afterwards also under my nose. The expectation was clear: It will be sweet and heavy, like the predecessor. I should not be disappointed.

As soon as the first whiff of the fragrance entered my nose, an association immediately came to mind. Raspberry gum. Fruity, somewhat synthetic and sweet. The typical chewing gum note that should be familiar to everyone. After about 15-20 minutes, the fragrance becomes a little warmer, a little more mature - the essence of the predecessor "Scandal" becomes more obvious. Only without all the honey- In "So Scandal" it is the raspberry chewing gum note that plays the leading role.
This way the scent stays on my skin. The durability is perfectly ok - even on the skin I use it for 6/7 hours. The sillage is also good, although "Scandal" even seems a bit more room filling. "So Scandal!" seems a little softer to me, the sweetness is less pungent. Nevertheless, the scent is only something for people who also like scents like "Scandal", "La Vie est Belle" or "Sì". It fits seamlessly into the "Sugar Bomb Fraction".

i find it quite pleasant, it reminds me of "Poison Girl" from Dior. Fruity, sweet, warm, playful and also a bit perky. Girlish with whistle. A good choice for all the other cats

Mega fruity
I tested so scandal because I like raspberry and milk and knew those were ingredients. I was not disappointed. So scandal is mega fruity and smells insanely strong. You really don't need to spray much. This is also the only scandal I like. For me, so scandal is for spring/summer, while la Belle is fall/winter for me.
Who is sweet and fruity likes, should definitely smell it.

My way in candy, I love it
And again, something with orange blossom...in a lot of scents I can't stand it, especially in combination with tuberose...it can sometimes come across as stuffy and stale.... i wouldn't have even looked at this scent with my butt, even if there was raspberry and milk in here, I wouldn't be convinced and continue to be put off, especially since I can't stand the normal "scandal". But due to a sample sent along by a dear perfumer, I was able to get to know the scent today, and it's the first women's scent I've liked from Jpg. I'm going to venture more into this brand now, at least as far as women's scents go. I love the men's scents and would repurchase these over and over again to my boyfriend any day. Anyway, to me this scent here smells like my way by Armani only in sweeter. When I looked at the fragrance pyramid, I noticed a couple of overlaps that could be the reason. I'm guessing it's the mix of orange blossom, tuberose and jasmine. Every once in a while I get the impression that orange blossom is trying to blindly win me over, but it's never going to do that because almost every time I've blindly trusted it in fragrances, it's gone wrong. "My way" and "So scandal" were very happy accidents that hit me right in the heart.
With all this gushing, I'm still surprised at myself, because actually the scent would be too sweet and too heavy for me, but somehow it doesn't manage to slay me. Maybe it's because it's still within the bounds of tolerable. Anyway, I love it more and more by the second and at some point it will (have to) move in with me. My nose smells a hint of strawberry with all the opulence and sweetness :) I will not wear it in the warmer seasons, because then he would still slay me :) is a great fragrance for autumn / winter, with which you can not submerge well in the crowd ;)

Tears, joy and pink unicorns
I dedicate my first comment to a very special fragrance for me.

If I were asked to make a short statement purely about the fragrance without any personal associations I would probably say :

The fragrance is as annoying in the long run as the matching song: "pink fluffy unicorns dancing on rainbows"
Or vl. "smells like pink children's bath concentrate."

Too much, too sweet, too pink.

Still, I bought it, because I actually like the scent IN FAIR after all.

To briefly go into the fragrance itself, I can only say that I do not get too much of the milk, but almost only chemical sweet raspberry concentrate with a few flowers perceive.
On the skin I have him only once sprayed, more I also do not want this fragrance does not fit me - at least no longer.
The H/S is very strong with me in any case.
The fragrance does not change much, only develops on me after some time a musty dusty undertone that I can not clearly interpret.

(Who is not interested in personal please stop reading here)

In January 2008, with great crashing, anger and tears, my first "relationship" came to an end. In March there was the big reconciliation with lots of promises and 2 weeks later breakup 2.

I was terribly frustrated after all my 14, then already 15 year old me had really believed I would grow old with this boy during he relationship.
Months passed and I developed so much inner strength to fight off his next reconciliation attempt and focus on me again.

Gradually I was back to being a typical 15 year old, even buying a horribly embarrassing pink t-shirt at New Yorker that said "single and fabulous" as an act of defiance.
I could laugh again.

By the fall, I had made the transformation from "sad duckling"
then deflated-was more confident than ever.

I danced with my girlfriends in the sunshine over the completely slushy (muddy) fairground floor because of all the rain in the past few days, stuffed myself with foam rolls, stuck my fingers together with cotton candy, and flirted with pretty boys.
SuddenlyI had butterflies in my stomach again.

Later on, the three of us
secretly an Eristoff ICE, and drove still with a few Ringelspiele and shouted thereby for the 15th time loudly the refrain of "completely losgelöst" by Peter Schilling with, before the mother of a friend brought us home again.

This afternoon was really completely detached, pure joy and this fragrance has managed to remind me 2020 so 12 years later. Back then, this would have been my fragrance for sure. Today, the bottle with the fluffy sweet pink memory is ready with me whenever I want to remind me that the rain is really followed by sunshine.

Very sweet tuberose & synthetic, jammy raspberry. Lactonic, fruity/floral, gourmand. Oddly named for something reminiscent of gummy bears

I quite enjoy white flowers, but such heady ones so close to the top such as in this are overwhelming and bring on a headache.
