People do not change, times change
In times like these, it is not easy to describe a fragrance that already has a good 20 years on the hump. And no, it no longer exists, at most by chance from private hands in Spain.
We are talking about Victorio & Lucchino, two avant-garde fashion designers from Seville, Andalusia, who in early 2000 also began to bring fragrances under their brand V & L on the market, like many other fashion designers before them.
V & L Hombre and V & L Mujer were the first creations of the duo and they still say today, it was their best. I would like to disagree because the "Hombre" in the dark blue bottle is my absolute V & L winner, which, however, there is (unfortunately) also no longer. Meanwhile, PUIG has taken over the brand and its marketing, as well as the creation of the fragrances. Regrettably, according to the motto the more the better (also here objection !)
But to the V & L Mujer, a fragrance as I would like to call him typically Spanish, at least the fragrances concerning which come from Andalusia. It is the southernmost region of Spain and also the hottest, despite proximity to the sea. Fragrances from Andalusia are light, fresh, well lasting but with rather body projection. Just due to the heat pleasant.
V & L Mujer starts with a herbaceous prelude, fresh and very green-herbaceous, lavender and something like lovage I suspect. This impression lasts so in about 20 minutes.
Then comes the fine fresh floral note with soft wood in the background to the fore and from then on V & L Mujer no longer changes. However, I can perceive neither gardenia nor garden carnation - both known to be quite fragrance strong. The flowers incorporated here are of a delicacy and lightness as I like them very much in fragrances.
The projection is and remains close to the body, but the scent holds and holds. Good 8 hours I can perceive him, on my hair even a lot longer.
The bottle is made of solid glass with various "dents", which makes it really very good in the hand.
V & L Mujer is in any case an interesting fragrance of the otherwise in Andalusia offered fresh fragrances clearly dances out of the series. The symbiosis of flowers and wood is soft and fine and so perfect that I puzzle which flowers were processed here. If it is indeed geranium and carnation, then they were processed with the highest perfumers art to this fragrance.
