Pubertal rebellion against the educated middle classes
The perfume already had me by name. Especially in this layout. Like a T-shirt with stupid self-designations or miles of political announcements. The perfume itself was found by my roommate to be "very typically you", sweet-fruity (and much more sweet than fruit) and squeaky on the border of kitsch, but with a - strang? - Note that undermines the whole thing and prevents it from drifting into the realm of poison girls - but which the perfume still heads for. The strange note is apparently difficult to classify, spicy was always a suggestion
In general, the perfume seems difficult to classify. It's - as has often been said here - actually much too flat and sweet for a niche, but it's not a classic mainstreamer for young girls. "interesting", "strange" and "sweet" were the terms that were used most often
I gave the perfume to my 13-year-old self, after the fact. I should have had it back then, it would have nailed down my whole attitude in terms of smell and flacon design: A girl from one of those annoying left-liberal educated middle-class households with metres of books and records, ecologically conscious wooden toys and piles of newspapers whose contents had to be discussed at breakfast so that everyone could develop their rhetorical skills for democratic discourse. By the way, mothers in such parental homes wear wide linen skirts and drag long swaths of opium behind them.
Girls from such parental homes like to burn out in books and movies (which I loved!) and become a singer or fall in love with some bad boy. They are supposed to be planning their career as an amnesty lawyer, but they might just want to paint their fingers pink-black, tear tear tears in their jeans, ironically label a t-shirt "Superlady" and make out a little at the next party. Above all, they dream of something that can simply be banal and fun, even if the Middle East conflict is still not resolved.
And this fragrance fits in wonderfully with that, because it's fun and can't completely deny its origins despite its poster-like sweetness and lack of depth. The bottle with the name is also given to the parents of the educated citizen, who probably check out the irony of the fact that the daughter has chosen an "individual niche perfume" with such enthusiasm Thank you for this olfactory dig, Pierre Guillaume.
