Fancy a dance?
Of the brand absolutely unknown to me, the Oxford interested me most because of its fragrances and sent me a sample of it.
In the beginning I was not able to give the start the necessary attention and at some point I quickly ended up with the impression: Ha! vanilla. Vanilla per se I don't think it's really bad, but sometimes she comes around the corner sticky sweet or as an annoying cuddly monster; then I'm quickly bored to stressed by her.
Therefore, further tests were absolutely necessary.
And behold! Br />
The start is what makes me feel absolutely fascinated and blissful.
It is tangy and citrusy fresh and at the same time wonderfully tart.
Here the bergamot probably grabbed the basil for a dance and did a few laps.
This combination ensures that my pulse accelerates and my mood rises.
If there is some jasmine running around here somewhere, at least she doesn't bother me.
I think this first round is simply successful and fantastic!
Afterwards a slight metallic smell is added, which is not disturbing in any way. On the contrary, there is tension in the dance, the rounds become a bit slower, the pulse rate becomes calmer.
The metal smell remains until the - initially unsweet - vanilla wants to mix in
And the stronger the vanilla becomes, the more the metal withdraws.
The vanilla (probably supported by amber and patchouli) takes the lead from here on and the scent changes.
Little by little it becomes balsamic, sweeter, fortunately not too sweet!
There's still a bit of a tug Whether oud plays a role here or whether it is due to the muscatel sage, I cannot say.
My little rehearsal is enough for at least one more dance and I am looking forward to it very much.
Conclusion:
I would have enjoyed the first round longer.
I find the tart citrus prelude absolutely successful; it is like a freshness kick, as I know it from no other fragrances of this kind.
Sillage is not too powerful, retreats relatively quickly.
Durability was enormous during the first test. I tested the fragrance in the evening and in the morning the vanilla was still a guest on my arm.
