Herb vanilla biscuits
Soo people, nice evening, well almost good night! :)
Here comes a new commi from me. The first Kommi, where I'm not in Germany right now, but also don't go on a real holiday, if anyone thinks why I would test and describe fragrances at a holiday resort of all places. I mainly visit relatives, which means that I also have time for fragrances. And that means again, you have me on your backs anyway, only that (probably) not every day a commi comes :D

So, after that has been clarified, I come to a fragrance that is probably completely unknown (even I didn't know it before). I got some samples of this brand from a very dear Parfuma, and therefore I also have to write to some of the Fragrances Commissioners, whether I like it or not (...so much too "very dear Parfuma"! hö hö.. :DD).

The first one here is Vaninger, which sounds like vanilla and which also contains vanilla, even if this is not the only main scent. Because there are also herbs in it, which let the smell smell unusual, but not necessarily badly smell.

The fragrance:
The scent begins with a scent that reminds me of biscuits. It smells like dough, biscuits and bread, but with vanilla and ginger in it. The vanilla provides both a sweet scent and a powdery, gentle touch, but the ginger makes the scent much more tart and herbaceous and is strongly reminiscent of kitchen herbs. In general, the kitchen herbs are much more pronounced, and I would say that you can smell more than ginger among them, I'd guess smells like turmeric and a little anise.
A little later the Kumquats are added. To be honest, I don't really know if there are big differences to oranges and other orange-like citrus scents, so I'll just say that it's just a little "orangey" here.
Also later it smells orange, herbaceous spicy and after vanilla, however the smell seems to become still softer and more gentle, since now also balsamic resinous smells are added, i.e. from the Benzoe.
Towards the end, the herbaceous notes decrease more and more, so that the fragrance then remains mostly vanilla-sweetish.

The Sillage and the shelf life:
The Sillage is actually only mediocre, but just at the beginning the scent flashes more strongly every now and then. However, the majority of it remains at a medium to moderate level, since its radiation quickly decreases again. The shelf life is about six to seven hours, which is okay.

The bottle:
The bottle is cylindrical and filled with yellowish scented liquid. It is surrounded by a white label on which you can see the name of the fragrance and the logo. The lid is also cylindrical and black. A somewhat simple, but nevertheless nice bottle. It reminds me, by the way, of the Heeley flacons.

So, now I have also tested this fragrance! And I have to say, he's not that bad. But it is also a little unusual or needs getting used to, because it doesn't just smell of vanilla and biscuits and cookies or other sweet-powdery scents, but also offers herbs that may not always suit everyone's taste, like ginger and other herb-spicy scents. This makes it one of those fragrances that you would definitely have to test to get a better idea of.

Because it's just so unusual, at least at the beginning and in the middle part, it's also not exactly a scent for everyday life, I'd say. I myself wouldn't know what I could do with it, except to wear it in my spare time from time to time (if I personally liked it a bit better). Well, definitely interesting and worth a try.

Well... yeah, I'm not home right now. Currently I am with an aunt and also here I am surrounded by a quite fat tomcat. He has a slightly grouchy look on his face, is just as fat as my tomcat (actually even fatter, so that he now got a diet meal from the doctor), but he is also totally fluffy and cute. I will post photos of him in my album on occasion :)

Well then, I wish you all a nice evening or a good night and until the next time, which might take longer (which I don't hope...), because I'll be at a village place from tomorrow, where there isn't much net... argh! :)
