Too high expectations
I was very excited, and full of anticipation, when this fragrance and Gold Chypre landed at my place without any problems (does not seem to be a matter of course).
Right at the first test sprayer the confirmation, yes, it is definitely a Chypre, first impression wearable, beautiful.
I was about to call him "classic", because that's the direction Dua wants to see him in.
But a voice inside me was grumbling the whole time, and louder and louder. It forced me to think about what exactly I didn't like, although I didn't dislike anything.
Exactly that was the point: I like Chypre very, very much, but I can't do it with everybody.
With some of them, the corners and edges are too extreme after all.
And exactly these corners and edges I missed, he is just too round, too smooth for me.
I miss the individual, the recognizable, the "rubbing together", the confrontation.
I remembered an experiment I read about once:
The search for the perfect beautiful face: For this purpose, a computer program was used to superimpose beautiful faces, in the expectation that this would lead to a definition of what constitutes beauty.
The result was a beautiful, smooth, boring, meaningless face.
My feeling is that Dua has fallen into this trap a bit
I hope you'll forgive me for not writing about what I smell: Chypre !
