Gardening in winter
Grain de Poudre is a fragrance that you wear for yourself. It has quietly crept into my heart. It is neither loud, nor obtrusive, nor eccentric, but nevertheless unique and very memorable. The mixture of green and powdery, without slipping into floral or woody, is something I have never smelled before.

It starts out very herbaceous and herbal and develops more and more powdery and dry with a herbal spiciness. I can't actively detect leather here, but it certainly adds a cozy note.

The fragrance reminds me a lot of when you cut back the herbs in spring and it's still very cold outside. Your hands smell of freshly cut woody sage stalks while you bury your face deep in a woolen scarf so that your nose doesn't freeze.

Green tinted sage-violet leather fraîcheur - like "April in Paris
I like these somewhat subtle scents. Especially after I was tortured this morning a) in the supermarket queue and b) in the bakery queue twice by two(!) men with steaming vapours of.... do you want to guess or is it too simple?...- yes, with Dior's "Sauvage"
Yes, Yves Saint Laurent's "Grain de Poudre" is pleasantly medium-layered, harmonious and pleasantly spring-like fresh green. Sage is clearly recognizable, flanked by citric-soft bergamot, underscored by slightly undercooled violet and primed by a very fine touch of suede, which was used much more subtly than in "Tuscan Leather" or other heavyweights.

Suit-layer, I would say, slightly open shirt on one of the first warmer days of the year, perhaps in April, in Paris. Where the pretty melancholic jazz classic "April in Paris" by Louis Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald immediately comes to mind.

Enough curves - what I simply want to say: YSL has simply succeeded in creating a fine, round all-rounder that radiates subtlety without drifting into the banal. That's what I wished for once from "Sauvage"...

The feeling comes only on the second long look
I have to admit that he picked me up very late, i.e. after 2-3 hours he developed very well. In the beginning it is very green and for me it takes a lot of getting used to. Sage has for me something dry and slightly tart green and dusty. I ignore him first and then he sneaks very carefully and pleasantly into my heart. It is a very fine one and I smell again and again at the scented body parts, delightfully. Easy with a fresh sweet-tart powdery, I don't know this direction yet, but I get a real chance. It really worked at second glance, but then it really worked. I find it perfect for the summer-is intense without the fruity, sweet and floral. It is not a girlie but an adult fragrance with the statement of a very multifaceted perfume and it lasts mega long. Maybe at second glance he'll win with you, try it sometime....
