Too bad, too bad, too bad...
Today arrived a very lovingly wrapped package from a dear perfumer - thank you so much for that! Of all my orders, the first sniff at the atomizer at Trussardi Limitless appealed to me the most. Let me start with the name. I don't think Limitless Shopping is particularly appropriate. As well as the bottle, which is plain and designed in understated beige. And what is this kitschy duck head please?
For "Limitless Shopping" the fragrance does not flirt enough, is too little pulsating. There would fit, for example, Vanilla Vibes, which I looked at yesterday, much better, because it is so excitingly alive. In my opinion, the fragrance doesn't fit the bottle either - it's not arriviste enough for that. If I had to design a bottle here, it would be green/yellow iced glass, the colours blending into each other. For the base would still have to get something golden.
The fragrance: first thought while sniffing still at the atomizer:
Wow.
Wow!!! ...
WOOOW!!!!
This one really blew my mind. Insanely exciting; I couldn't place all the notes at all. (Second thought: what a shame I already have a Signature...).
When spraying on clearly the apple and the honey; Granny Smith as once with Be Delicious Eau de Parfum or also All About Eve Eau de Parfum. The honey rounds off and makes the scent really special. And then? The only thing that happens in the next 2-3 hours is that the apple almost completely displaces everything else and becomes more and more spiky and synthetic. Argh - how stupid! I smell exactly which direction this is supposed to go, can guess the base, but the apple remains. As clumsy as possible. Only after several hours does the nice, soft, smooth feminine base of heliotropin, more tonka and some musk come in; I don't detect hawthorn or anything else floral. That's why this fragrance is not sweet-floral for me, but rather fruity-sweet; a bit gourmand at the very end. Too bad, too bad, too bad, I think it could have been nice
