Lost Alice in Wonderland
I come first to the technical, in all my sharings I always fill half a ml myself and test how much TZ sprayers correspond to about one sprayer of the bottle. Here it takes about 3 sprays of the TZ to come to the amount of a spray of the bottle.
The sillage is not excellent but quite good and the durability of the great heart note could be quiet longer, it lasted so 2-3 hours and then it went into the base note but is also mega and after a total of 8 hours, the fragrance finds its end for my nose.
But now to the fragrance that really touches me.

It is a magical fragrance, he starts very unusual, light and increases quickly in the floral nutty. I would say yes smooth the nutty seeds/grainy are the ambrette seeds but short internet research says that ambrette seeds, the seeds of the musk bush rather Mochusartig, floral sweet smells. So I guess that comes from the wonderful and not at all spicy smelling, incorporated pepper. So it starts very nicely. This top note disappears after about 10 minutes and slowly the incredibly interesting heart note spreads. I thought first of coffee, of cake. The purity of iris soap or rather in iris soap washed tablecloth ;) because then it made Ding, there was the enlightenment. The scent is called Lost Alice and it had something of a beautiful white coffee table in a fairy tale world, with flowers and carrot cake. It was the world of Alice in Wonderland with the Mad Hatter over a cup of black tea. And there I was suddenly all small again, testosterone levels dropping and the little boy of yesteryear coming up who loved Alice in Wonderland as well as Winx Club, Barbie, Tinkerbell.... tinkerbell. I was emotionally transported back to that innocent and simply beautiful time and everything became magical, imaginative, peaceful simply beautiful again. I find it mega amazing how scents and then memories that come high (even if the memory isn't tied to the scent itself but to a fitting situation) can touch and change you so.
But I'm not a man of many words so before I digress any further I'll move on to the drydown. This is just beautifully soft and gentle. It goes if I now connect the smell with colors slowly into a light beige and then over into a creamy white. So nice and clean with a dash of sweet spice and a nice floral note that I don't know but if there is a plant that gives off the smell of this drydown(which there probably isn't unfortunately because crossing broom and sandalwood will.... Hard and to get the creamy milk in there, is there even a plant that smells like milk?), then maybe with a lot of work I would turn my black thumb into a green one and put this plant in my bedroom forever. I'm thrilled.
There are many fragrances that are fancier, louder, more authentic, more gourmand.... Are, but this... he is simply poetically beautiful, I have found Alice, she is no longer lost, she belongs to me.

I have today not - birthday
When I was a kid, I loved Alice in Wonderland. The movie, the animated series, the book. At Disneyland Paris, I walked through the Wonderland maze 6-7 times a day. The times are long gone, I thought, and then I discover "Lost Alice".
I spray it on and am at the tea party of the hatter, sing "I have today not - birthday" and drink tea. In real life, I never drink tea, I do not like it. All the greater was my amazement at how much I like to smell it on my skin. The Earl - Grey note, after the spicy opening, stays on my skin for a very long time and I love it. I can't stop smelling it on my wrist. The tea displaces the carrot with me, a little rose can be guessed. The heart note I find simply fantastic.
"Lost Alice" fades very slowly with me: the Earl Grey is only a bit of dregs, you can smell only the milk and the wooden table of the tea party. The non - birthday is over after about 8 hours, but the next day we will celebrate it again.
By the way, I really have non - birthday and I think this is the perfect occasion for a gift to myself.

Spiced cream cheese frosting
One of the best gourmands I’ve come across. It takes that lactonic note that can come across as shampoo-y and spins it in the direction of cream cheese frosting. Creamy, sweet, delicately spiced.

It lasts and projects the whole day for me, though as the day goes on the black pepper becomes more prominent. Avoid wearing in the summer as it can get cloying.

elevated, musky gourmand
I had a sample of this laying around and decided to put it on after my shower today. I just went and ran errands and I felt *blushes* so pretty!

This is a very light, bright, almost dainty perfume. It is sort of chai tea, sort of carrot cake, but doesn't wear like a typical gourmand. Powdery but not old lady. A little herbal sum' sumthin' lies underneath.

Oh and it projects like hell! I was walking around in a constant cloud of Lost Alice for hours, and standing three feet away from people because I was worried I would choke them out. I believe the ambrette is the culprit, as I am particularly sensitive to musks - in the best way!

Love this but not convinced it is masculine enough for me to have on the shelf - even as a man who loves women's fragrances.

I‘m mad. You‘re mad.
…“But I don’t want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here”…
-
And if you don’t know yet where “here” is, I shall give you a hint:
A world full of wonders, no less real than your wildest dreams. A world to get lost in. And if you’re lost like Alice, you might eventually end up drinking tea with the maddest of them all, joking why a raven is like a writing-desk and having the most wOnDerful & cheerful time of your entire life. So without a moment of hesitation, you closed your eyes and got totally lost…
-
The large desk was richly covered with everything you could ask for and more as you arrived. The March Hare noticed you first, and as if it was a necessary thing, he threw carrots at you in the most arbitrarily way, and while none of them has actually hit you, the air around you was stirred up then. The smell of carrots with a slight spiciness surrounds you, when suddenly the Mad Hatter introduced himself with this more or less confusing question: “Why is a raven like a writing-desk?” - as you were thinking about a(n) (un)possible answer to it, he then quickly skipped the topic, asking you if you would like some tea. You of course couldn’t resist, it’s tea time after all! “Green tea, black tea, …” “Black tea, please!” “With my secret ingredient I propose” “Surprise me!”, and just a blink later, the tea with spritz of milk was served. “A piece of cake also? No one can resist this sweet seduction.” “Yes please!”.

The cake, the tea, a spicy breeze of carrots that surrounds you and the smell of buttery iris from a blooming field makes your trip complete.

"When the day becomes the night and the sky becomes the sea, When the clock strikes heavy and there's no time for tea. And in our darkest hour, before my final rhyme, you will come back home to Wonderland and turn back the hands of time."

And you will return.

Gourmand fans will be all over it. Iris is super carroty, kind of reminds me of baked carrot banana muffins. Longevity could be bit better

Lost Alice is sweet and creamy. Milky, buttery iris, slightly powdery, with black tea and a woody base. I don't smell any carrot.

Slightly carrot cake with cream cheese frosting mixed with shampoo clean girl aesthetic vibes. Not the creamy tea scent I was expecting.

Very disappointing. Initially citrusy, then turns into a mild, slightly green, fresh milk tea. Overall a pretty weak and generic scent
