Cleaning day
Such a move is quite exhausting. Not only do you live in chaos for days on end, but there's also a lot of dirt and dust. You can vacuum and clean as thoroughly as you want, behind any cabinet or on any box hangs but again a wool mouse.

Yesterday I unpacked part of my perfume collection and put it in its new dwelling. The bottles were as happy as I was to have finally arrived. So far, no damage to complain, only a little dented packaging I could make out. How have I missed them in the last 2 weeks my little darlings! Finally I can test again, sniff and enjoy the beautiful bottles.

Today is a day we have something absolutely unglamorous planned: Cleaning the old apartment for the next tenant. Normally, I would not come up with such activities except deodorant to apply something else for scenting. After the perfume-free time, in which I could only feed on a few samples, but it must be. Only, which fragrance do you wear for cleaning? Something fresh, light and uncomplicated it should be. Since my small Clean collection is still hidden in the vastness of the moving boxes, something else must serve. My eye falls on Flower Princess. Can I remember yet that this floral fresh and just the thing can be. So I put on my cleaning clothes, run back to the perfume cabinet and spray me 3 times bravely in the décolleté. The first gush that comes my way does not please me, too alcoholic and chemical starts this flowery princess. The first impression quickly fades and an innocuous, fabric softener-like floral note develops, which doesn't bother me, keeps me reasonably fresh and matches the aromas of the cleaning products. But that's about it.

Bought at the time in a fit of collecting mania, I now regret a bit the sheer unthinking spending money. Now I have to live with it, flagellate myself and wear all the scents ... No, it's not that bad. Well the flower princess was just there, has reasonably fit, not bothered. To make out individual fragrances is difficult, she smells but too uniform. Whether I will wear it again, I can not say, but I will keep an eye on it, the next spring cleaning comes determined.

clean and neat
I still remember the times when Wang was still offered in perfumeries at not exactly cheap prices.

I happily got myself a princess at that time - and still have fun with it.
But in the meantime, this brand can be found very cheaply in drugstores.
What happened?
The fragrances have lost nothing of their appealing lightness.

Now you can also afford a Wang "easily".
And also as small, nice presents they are very suitable.

So I went to the Flower Princess, because already the flowery cartouche is lovely.
The aquatic start of mandarin and water lily fits into the summer, and the apricot is mildly fruity.
The flowery parts are light and delicate, so that a clean impression is created.
Woody lends a touch of elegance and moves the fragrance out of the "teen corner".
Adult ladies are also neatly dressed with this princess.

A bright, friendly smell, which I will give gladly to a good acquaintance.
I'm not going to use it to rub it in.

Forgettable floral
Sure, Flower Princess is pretty, but it doesn't seem to evolve much further than that.

May I ask, but where are the fruits? All I get is a rather bland, predictable, soft floral blend, which honestly is far too musky for my liking.

I'll admit that the bottle, packaging and advertising doesn't suggest that Flower Princess is anything more than pretty and charming. My craving for something bold and unique comes from my frustration with this scent. I wanted memorable but after a few minutes I couldn't remember how this smelt. Aren't Vera Wang scents meant to compliment a bride on her wedding day? On my wedding day I hope to wear something that will make me stand out in a crowd, not blend in with one.

After getting all that off my chest and reflecting back on the scent itself, Flower Princess is still pleasant and undeniably feminine. I can't disregard the fact that some people prefer soft and transparent scents to loud ones. So because of that observation I will recommend Flower Princess to those that like soft, basic florals.
