Vanilla and tobacco, sometimes that's all you need to simply smell good!
Good evening everybody! Today I have something to read about a fragrance of Tauer Parfums. But to say it right away: No, it is NOT L'Air du Désert Marocain! Apparently the Tauer fragrances are like the Creed fragrances. When one thinks of Creed, many people think of Aventus at first. When one thinks of Tauer, many people first think of the Désert Marocain!
Why is that? Well... it may be that you all have hardly any idea about scents and therefore only know these two scents, mu ha ha ha ha :DD
But of course I have to say that the Aventus is not so bad, even if I shouldn't be a big fan of it. And I even think the Désert Marocaine is great. But I don't stay with single fragrances forever, but try out something new again and again. But I have to anyway, because you have gotten so used to me here that it would have to be absolutely terrible for you if I stopped writing, wouldn't it? At this point, by the way, you have to say "Oh, yeah, that's so true!" DD
*eavesdrop eavesdrop... of course... no one says such a thing *sigh*
All right... whatever. So, as I said, today I come to a Tauer fragrance, from the Tauerville Flash series, which are supposed to be particularly long-lasting. Vanilla Flash here, by the way, is said to have been created in such a way that it has all the fragrances that Andy Tauer, the perfumer, himself loves. In this sense, one can say that this is the version of the ultimate vanilla scent of a perfumer, so one can be curious, since vanilla is certainly (rightly) one of the most popular scents!
Later on, if you smell it closely, you can also detect a little rose, although this doesn't seem too feminine, so that the fragrance remains unisex despite the rose and vanilla.
I also perceive a beautiful cinnamon-like sweetness that reminds me of fragrances like Burberry London for Men.
Even later, the fragrance itself remains as it began, so it smells mainly of vanilla and tobacco with a small amount of cinnamon. The only difference is that the tobacco slightly loses intensity in the base, so that the vanilla appears a little stronger. All in all a simply composed scent, but very fragrant.
The silage and the durability:*
The sillage is quite good, as the scent produces a pleasantly larger but not overwhelming cloud of scent, which others can smell well on one or the other. The shelf life is even very good, as vanilla fragrances in particular are very long-lasting. You can easily get over 12 hours in here.
The bottle... strong... strong.. To be perfectly honest, I don't like the bottles in this fragrance line at all. They don't have the beautiful, special look of the other Tauer fragrances (in mainly blue bottles) and instead come in simple-looking, rectangular niche bottles with a two-tone label and a simple, cylindrical lid. You know that I don't really like such bottles, so please don't be surprised that I rate these bottles rather lower.
For me, Vanilla Flash is therefore one of those good vanilla scents that should go down well, especially now in the cold weather. Since it also smells slightly of cinnamon, it usually makes you a little bit of anticipation for occasions like christmas... too bad that christmas is over for now *sigh* That was much faster than I wanted and now I have to wait 12 months for christmas here again... and no, it doesn't help if you now say that there will be a nice summer in between... no, no... I prefer cold weather to heat waves, especially since you can't wear such nice scents in summer:D
But I digress. As indicated, this fragrance is especially suitable for autumn and winter and can be used in leisure time and for going out or for festive events. It's worth a test, even if you might already know some vanilla scents, because there are a lot of them, so you'll lose track of which of them smell really great. And vanilla flash is for me one of the good scents among them!
Well, here we go again. I hope that in future comments I will cry less about the past Christmas and few will complain about the summer... you'll see :D
Have a nice evening and see you soon :)
