I was wearing a watermelon!
This sentence has probably gained cult status in the meantime!
It was a great late summer, I was almost 16 years old, and the cinema was filled to capacity! We went to the evening show, my sister, her girlfriend - and me.
I wore my jeans with the buttons on and the yellow sweater I loved so much, and I wore Raphaël. The wine-red one. Always standing on my mother's dresser with a three-piece mirror on top.
Raphaël stood next to Obsession, which also belonged to my mother.
Nevertheless, this wine red bottle made it onto my shelf again and again, wandered back onto my mother's chest of drawers and finally stopped on my shelf: because Raphaël and I, we simply belonged together.
There was a drugstore around the corner where we could buy him. First there were three fragrances, then a fourth. Although I was too young for the scent at that time, and it was a flagship of Sillagé and charisma, and I put it on just before the movie, I felt very comfortable with this scent.
I spent a long time looking for him until I found him here.
Dear Jennytammy left him to me, he arrived yesterday and everything was back.
The film, the smell, the cuddly cushion under my hands from the cinema seat (at that time the chairs were even more comfortable than today), Billy Idol the "Sweet Sixteen" was roaring through the ether, the sprayer that was already spraying wildly around at that time, my beloved sneakers...
I always found Raphaël to be a loud and very perceptible scent. It starts flowery, yes.
But nevertheless there is always a certain sharpness, almost a kind of severity. It takes time for the fragrance to sit down, for everything to combine, then it becomes more harmonious, but still remains extravagant in its own way!
The base was already then beautiful, warm, sensual, wonderful! Not perceptible for so long today.
And also back then there was something in the base that not only made the fragrance beautiful, but also made it something special. I don't know what happened to the bottle.
Still an extraordinary fragrance for me. Sure, the Sillagé monster is no longer him, after all, the smell has already a few years on the hump, the durability decreases also faster than I have it in memory, nevertheless, I am glad to know him here.
For a trip into the past, for a baby who has worn a watermelon and a Johnny who demands klipp and clear: my baby belongs to me, that is clear?
Raphael's with me. Even if I didn't know then that a perfume can smell oriental and I seldom like and wear oriental fragrances, that belongs to my own great perfume time!
I'd still buy it today if it still existed. Very bad that he was hired.
