Clarissa

She is beautiful and many men turn after her, but still she is lonely, because the great love she has still not found.
Often she dreams of an attractive stranger who comes into her life when she doesn't even expect it.......!
She is a little shy, so it would never occur to her to do the first step with a man.

One day she came home exhausted from work, it had once again been a long and exhausting day and she longed for a bubble bath with rose petals, because she loved roses above all else
As she stood in front of her apartment door, something drew your attention.......a light pink rose was stuck on the door handle.
She searched in vain for a corresponding message, but the beguiling scent already reached her nose and she became a little dizzy.
Who was the secret Rosenkavalier? Had he possibly erred in the front door and it was not meant at all?
She took the rose to her apartment and put it in a vase.

Within the next days the vase filled up, because every day of the following week she found a new rose at her door.
Her thoughts revolved only around the mysterious stranger and she was torn between romantic feelings and fear.
On the eighth day there was no pink rose, no, this time she greeted a fully blossoming purple peony, which had an absolutely beguiling scent and completely clouded her senses.
In addition, a small, beautifully packaged package lay on the doormat, a small letter was attached to it.
She opened the envelope with trembling fingers and read the letter:
"Please wear the scent tonight when I come to you, your tender devil".
She opened the parcel and found a beautiful bottle with pink contents, a scent unknown to her, which she sprayed herself with expectation.
For a moment she thought she smelled Rharbarber, but no, it was pink grapefruit with a dash of peach juice, delicious and refreshing.
Quite fast this effervescence gave way to a fine creaminess and there they were, the splendid roses and the peony, which they had been putting into a whirlpool of romantic feelings for days.
A fine woodiness rounded off the scent, a tiny touch of a light suede glove still clung to the bottle that the "tender devil" had previously held in his hands

No one had ever given her anything so beautiful before and when it rang at the door, she already suspected that this could be the beginning of an exciting relationship.............

Jil Sander is a brand that I used to appreciate very much, some scents already graced my collection and then it became a little quiet around Jil and me in recent years
No fragrance really wanted to touch my heart, often that certain something was missing.

But now I am reconciled again with Jil Sander, because Simply Eau de Parfum Poudrée has enchanted me and has been my companion for a few weeks very often.

May sound a little kitschy, but there must be a reason why I reach for this scent especially on not so good days .........!

Eau de Parfum Poudrée is one thing above all else: it is powdery, which will certainly hit the heart of many people who love clean fragrances.
Rice powder is present from beginning to end and unites with heliotrope and tonka bean, so that a vanilla-mandaded tone resonates subliminally.
The freesia is not to be smelled clearly for me, nevertheless a floral note is present with all powderiness, but this does not play a main role and also the mandarin specified in the fragrance pyramid holds itself discreetly back.
Overall I find the fragrance very well balanced, all fragrances are finely interwoven and result in a delicate fragrance dress.
The only downside is the shelf life, which is at best mediocre, but with the moderate price of the fragrance I like to spray after.

Finally, I would like to say that I am really happy that Jil Sander has once again created a fragrance that for me goes beyond the predicate "nice, but insignificant" and has already earned me compliments:-)
