A perfume that whets the appetite for more
Well then, let me open a review! Funnily enough, this fragrance was almost only mentioned in the States and among a handful of influencers there, even though it is located in our neighboring country of France. This isn't surprising because according to said influencers, you DM EBKParis on Instagram to buy from their hand. I wouldn't know now if a mere Discovery Set would be available for purchase, because I graciously received a sample from a dear perfumer here and so knew immediately - yes, definitely need the full bottle, but you can give it a try.
First of all, according to the stories of said creator, yes, it does smell like a blueberry muffin, I can confirm that, with a citrusy, slightly powdery note that seems to imitate the dough a little. It doesn't smell maritime at all, as the bottle and the name seem to imply. No aquatics, just the little pungent cedar of grapefruit zest that elevates this blueberry muffin from the (now) €2 price tag to €6.85 - one you'd get at a Siesmayer or Wacker's Café.
The fragrance is a very unique gourmand, not dry, but not sticky either and almost like a cloud on which an angel of the Sistine Madonna rests. Sweet, swirling, but the sillage is not to be underestimated. It lasts about 6 hours on my skin and a few days on my clothes. Please don't compare it to "Beastmode!", this perfume simply has a balanced volume, you will definitely get your money's worth.
So far, I haven't found a fragrance that lends itself to a direct comparison, as I admittedly don't have the most extensive knowledge of perfume librarians. I could well imagine this fragrance on a woman, but given the modern understanding of gender roles in the perfume industry, it could also be extremely appealing on some men. In any case, it's worth a "try". I really enjoy it, especially as someone who tries to watch his line and prefers to eat a new dessert with his nose, while still getting compliments here and there. Yes! I can do that!
