Adult cane sugar
Another brand new fragrance from D'Orsay that sits surprisingly modern and far from their classic line. Which is good. But a real DNA, colour or idea that I've come to think of when I hear the name "D'Orsay" doesn't want to register with me. It doesn't have to - taken on its own terms, "Songe à la douceur." close to a hit.
Most likely, the fragrance can be accused of not really knowing/indicating where it wants to go. It's sweet, light and powdery on one side, dark, serious and almost leathery on the other. But does a fragrance have to choose? Not necessarily. At least not if he does it as high quality and great as this tongue twister for us Germans. "C.B. Songe à la douceur." is sugar on black leather jacket, he is the first bitter (crisis) conversation in a passionate relationship, he is an aged and tanned praline. Basically already in the direction of an "Allure Edition Blanche" but with a much blacker and rougher background. Fluffiness from a shady place. Musk with gravitas and earthy urgency. A professional cake, almost without calories and yet not light. Simply a feat and just the thought of a gourmand. Or just the first weeks of a cooling affair.
Flacon: simplicity squared
Sillage: radiates surprisingly little
Durability: 8 hours with serious mien
Verdict: the perfume of a cooled down but still great love. Dark although still sweet, powdery although still leathery, lovely although now arrived in life
