Atanarjuat

Through Dao orientation, people can learn about the laws and manifestations of the world principle by observing the course of the world in which the Dao manifests itself. The action of the Dao creates opposing and yet interrelated forces.

It may be that the highest yin - in Taoist terms - is the crowning glory of femininity. Xīwángmǔ is the highest Yin, her male counterpart, Tung Wang-Kung, the active male principle Yang.

Symbolically "Tian Di" (from now on we are at perfume!) can reflect both quite impressively. I hear here from the beginning a similar duality, from whose interplay of sun smoke and peaches the changing, becoming and growing of Tian Dis appear. I can certainly say that the peaches here are not really feminine per se, the Chinese incense not really male.

Tian Di actually goes his own - quite Asian-exotic - way and is above all a meditative and in himself resting fragrance, which - strangely enough coming from Argentina - has the spirit of a Chinese soul.

Every 3000 years, the holy peach trees are said to bear fruit Xīwángmǔs - and those who taste them attain immortality....

- Whether the different representatives now represent the same weight class, remains to be seen, they had desire on the Pomeranzen WM.
- Win: the sun trophy!

Let's go to the Nerolisprint.

Right from the start "Neroli Portofino Acqua", "Mandarino di Amalfi Acqua" and the "Mugler Cologne" can set themselves apart. The Neroli is right there, the top note motors are running at full speed.
Halfway through the race, the race to catch up gets underway. "Sun Song," "Le Vestiaire - Saharienne"
and also the Ferrari come slowly in bloom distillate drive and gain a lot.

However, a delayed braking point allows the Italian racehorse to drive straight ahead in Ambrox curve 1. Considering the fact that the price is quite sensational here, "Bright Neroli" takes a very respectable 6th place in this weight class. An icon that also smells a little like an "icon" - winner of the internal Dunhill 2015 elimination. Respect.

A capital engine failure prevents the "Mugler Cologne" from making any progress - all in all a bit weak-chested, the Morillas-Eau de Toilette has no chance at the end of the day and ends up in 5th place. And that in the concert of the big ones! Top.

Now the concert of the Zitrusfruchtgranden is getting close. "Sun Song" confronts the established with a broad citrus base - in the form of Cavallier-Belletrud´scher Zedrat-Zitrone, also
Called the cedar apple. The Vuitton is bright and bright, fruity and fresh at the same time. He is simply cheerful and beautiful and always spreads a good linear mood. However, "Sun Song" - like his opponents from the house of Tom Ford - has his condition problems. Whether it doesn't do with the price then also a Ferrari, everyone must decide for himself, the Anderssein approach with the cedar fruit succeeds only conditionally.
In the end, "Sun Song" gives his driver a good fourth place. The lemonite lemon is not dynamic enough against the (synth-)bitter orange neroli of the other representatives.

"Neroli Portofino Acqua" says goodbye with a poor shelf life and cheers for the bronze medal before it goes to the final straight with Amalfi and Saharienne.

Here, "Mandarino di Amalfi Acqua" wins in front of the YSL branch because of its somewhat more creative approach within the World Championship and receives the sun trophy radiantly. For me, that's a little fresh herb sour that makes the final difference. Saharienne has some Neroli-PS more in the tank than the Fords, a bit more positive than N. Portofino A.

So the unequal comparison for "Sun Song" doesn't even end as sobering as I feared and Louis V. may at least sing the sun song during the award ceremony of the Sonnenpokalgekührten, while I like to wait for the water of the sun Positanos.

Reduced light in the temple Ebabbar in Sippar - wave-like radiating. In the shadow kingdom, under the sky roof. For all time.

The disappearance of the sun god in the evening of Akkadian times brought light to the dead in the underworld - until the next day. For all time.

Amber is at the same time moon and sun, the personification of justice and seeing, the shining star in the darkness of the mountain - son of the moon, father and mother of all dreams.

Ambergris is light and dark, warm-balsamic sweetness. Green gold, resinous-smoky, light-fresh in its own way.

Ambra is the Akkadian sun god who conquered the darkness.

Expect nothing sensational, nothing outstandingly phenomenal. Expect extraordinary mastery.
Ambra is a border crosser, unyielding, incorruptible-linear. And yours. For all time.

I was very curious about the new fragrances from Vuitton, had only recently launched perfumes for women and mid-2018 for men back on the market
First statements and comments here on Parfumo made me no less expectant and I got some bottlings from the souk. The bank revealed a very fine and exquisite offer for my nose.

"Sur la Route" is nice grassy, "Au Hasard" quite woody, also "L ´Immensité" I like well, but I have to test it a bit more extensively - in any case nice and fresh. Two other fragrances didn't match my search for a green fragrance: "Nouveau Monde" and "Ombre Nomade" are rather heavy chunks, even if no less corresponding to the upper category.

My last rehearsal was "Orage". The scents read very green and I was really excited about this test

A green veil of mist blows towards you, quite powerful. You go straight into your Silla forest, smell damp plants, leaves wet with drizzle. I especially like single sprinkles of bergamot - to stay with the picture: from time to time one of these raindrops hits you through the treetops directly on your head. Refreshing!

At first the impression of a rather linear scent remains, but in my opinion the scent becomes a little brighter with time. At the beginning still green-woody-earthy (Vetiver, Patchouli), it leaves more and more space for citric components, also the iris comes to light. As if one had found a clearing - or again from the dense forest - (out). Contrasts play around, which fit together very nicely. Green in any case.

This fragrance is for me the most interesting fragrance of 2018. It is so a little love at second sight - when "Sur la Route" and "L ´Immensité" supposedly score faster with their top notes, Orage is really not the ugly duckling, but definitely the still and deep water.
