The city of angels
A fragrance that is like cruising through the streets of Los Angeles in an old Ferrari convertible.... Exclusive, light, refreshing and always with a touch of self-dramatization somewhere between arrogance and depression.

Initially strikes one only an extremely authentic but boring Manderinen note.... So boring that I already very verduzt dreinschaute and thought only "And the should cost as much as the other LV fragrances?".

But suddenly... Woah, the top note went on and me Schoß me a not quite ripe Manderine mixed with a bucket full of different flowers against.... The sillage spread immediately in the room and the slightly biting sour but at the same time bitter soft smell conquered the whole room. On the one hand so incredibly light and yet Hollywoodreif dramatic it shows itself.

And although he actually seems so quiet and weak to myself, my fellow confirmed this immediately. Rarely been addressed so quickly so often in the house on my fragrance.

My mother even compared it to an orange peel pickled in Molecule 01.... The definitely seems to have it more in itself than I want to perceive so.

Durability-wise he held according to feedback strongly from morning to late afternoon and on my skin I still take last feel. So somewhere around the 6-7 hours the whole thing will probably move.

The sillage is more blatant than you would expect with a for itself so lauen Lüftchen, although never really dominant. Rather a neat solid.

Since I have only one bottling, I can say little about the bottle. The pictures of the sender to this were great and the others of the brand are anyway also all Qualitätsmäßig the price aufjedenfall worthy.

Now only the question is still in the room, when one may leave because finally his own fingerprints ...

For fans of authentic and little sweet citrus definitely recommendable, even if it unfortunately lacks something unique position.

The California Dream in a bottle?
Today there is another Louis Vuitton comment from me. But I can say in advance that I like California Dream very much. The bottle is also a minimalist masterpiece, this gradient is simply beautiful, but now to the fragrance itself. California Dream starts fresh with a full load of mandarin orange, and after a short time, floral and slightly fluffy notes are added, but I have to say that these floral and fluffy notes shift the fragrance a bit towards the feminine, and I can imagine the scent being a bit more feminine. I still think that a man can wear California Dream, but while testing it, my girlfriend liked California Dream and likes it very much. So I ordered a bottle for my girlfriend for christmas, but sometimes I will borrow the scent from her :)

A wonderful combination
This fragrance balances between three notes at the same time and in combination results in a wonderful yield of perfect scent. This fragrance is definitely made for summer. Heavy on the one hand, light on the other. It can do that. I personally like to spray a little more on my skin, but that's for everyone to decide.

The bottle is simply perfect. Whether for collectors or beginners who simply want to have a beautiful, high-quality bottle in their collection.

I like to have it in my collection because it is also a very good alternative to LV's summer fragrances. Almost a must have.

Summer paradise with a touch of Colonia
This fragrance is a fruit explosion in every respect. It embodies the lightness and at the same time heaviness of fruit. I smell a very ripe mandarin slightly mixed with an extremely sweetened lime, so that the bitterness of the lime just floats around but is not really perceived. The smell that flies towards you when you peel a mandarin becomes more and more present. The fragrance smells fruity, young, dynamic, sweet, clean, well-groomed and freshly showered under palm trees where Mediterranean fruits grow. I also detect a hint of colonia. It's as if you've sprayed on a cheap sweet drugstore fragrance and then sprayed on a hint of not too intense niche Colonia, which on the whole gives the fragrance a luxurious touch. For example, that of Acqua di Parma. Finally, after a longer wait, something powdery emerges.

The combination of mandarin mixed with ambrette was almost like celery to my nose.

A bright and sweet mandarin in the opening, fresh and slightly green. In the drydown, a soft musky amber. Nice scent for summer.

As soon as I left the shop, I tried it again on myself and the resemblance to Dior's portofino is striking!

Bright, clean musk intertwined with a very watery orange and sweet pear. Orange fades in drydown. Best performance of LV's Les Colognes.

Fresh tangerine, slightly bitter and later slightly powdery. Not a scent that stays in your memory for a long time but in itself quite ok
