THE GAY ICON
The QUEEN OF POP and her masterpiece!
I don't even know where to begin! Therefore, let's start from the beginning.

STORYTIME!

I can still remember looking around a bit in a private perfumery.
Which I must say, it was a private perfumery with only designer fragrances and partly niche.
Therefore, I was very surprised that a "Celebrity Fragrance" surrounded by designer and niche fragrances, actually made it to the shelf.
Back to the story, while I was focusing on one shelf in particular, I suddenly saw a fragrance packaging with a picture of the Gay Icon, Queen Of Pop, Madonna!
My first thought "Madonna has a fragrance?!" my second "I must have it!" my third "How does it smell". Now at this point I was not the expert on perfume. I actually thought the tuberose note was bubbelgum!!!!!!!. That was also my first thought "mh chewing gum" But to the fragrance equal....
I bought it right away, and actually had it packaged for me. HAHA I can remember so well how the nice saleswoman asked. "What name should I write on it" Me with a funny tone, "From Francesco, For Francesco" Now let's cut to the chase, do you do it too, Do you also leave it packaged after a perfume purchase even though it's for you? Just for the vibe? Come on, people BE HONEST!!!! :D


Now let's talk about the scent.
That you know it, I love tuberose scents! And especially this tuberose.
Madonna wanted to create a fragrance that reminds her of her mother. Her mother is said to have worn fragrances with tuberose. Madonna also said that as soon as she smells tuberose scents, she thinks of her mother.

Truth or Dare is a tuberose fragrance!
Initially when spraying, the tuberose comes on a little stronger, which quickly warms up and turns to the (bubblegum) note. The bubblegum note is but noble, not cheesy.
As time goes by, this scent gets warmer and warmer until it gets to vanilla. And from there is my absolute favorite base. And this base accompanies me up to 7-8 hours.


Love the bottle! It sticks out of my collection Raus.

Yes I love this fragrance very much, unfortunately discontinued. Cheeky, right?
You also have to say that the fragrance only got its hype after it was already discontinued. Now very hard to get it!

If you have the opportunity to buy the, do not hesitate!
Top fragrance with super H+S with niche quality.

A soothing companion
Face of this stunning fragrance is Queen Angelina Jolie.
Let's just between us, I must confess that Angelina Jolie has already forced me a bit to this buy.

I heard only positive to Mon Guerlain, everyone raved about the EAU DE PARFUM but also the EAU DE PARFUM INTENSE..... You should know that I always buy the Intense versions. If available!

Of course in Lockdown Style I have me all Parfumo, all YouTube and WHOLE blogs a STUDIERT! To me a more accurate picture zumachen.

While looking at the fragrance pyramid, I was actually unsure. LAVENDEL...... PATCHOULI.... Fragrances that I don't hate, but for the most part I don't like in fragrances.
I asked myself questions like. "Is the lavender too dominant, or too masculine?" "Is it that kind of earthy patchouli?"
I took a chance on my next blind buy at Lockdown, I put my trust in each and every one of YOU and all the perfume bloggers.

While the fragrance finally found its way to me, I was overjoyed.
I ripped open the box with a loud scream, ahhhhhhhh.
First spray, I didn't dare put my trunk there. To be honest, I did not need it at all. Even with the first spray, a cloud came with. light lavender and a really strong and elegant vanilla. I was blown away, I fell in love with this scent. He did not stop to caress my nose.
As I mentioned before, vanilla dominates in this fragrance, YEAH! Finished off with that WEIRD lavender! In the first minutes the lavender is actually a bit stronger, but in 10-15min I take a really very Noble vanilla notes. Dear Mr. Singing Club! A dream I tell you.
The vanilla lavender remains. Towards the end comes one also from the patchouli.

H+S Top! A spray to just sniff, the whole room was felt.

Flacon is also Pretty.

I feel like Rihanna
As I hope you all know, Love Don't Be Shy by Kilian is Rihanna's signature fragrance. Already as Rihanna fan No.1 Love Don't Be Shy had to be a part of my perfume collection.
Unfortunately, since the perfume stores are closed and I don't have the chance to test it, I had to make a risky decision. I will blind order it! YES!!! i am ordering a 50ml bottle worth 200 euros. BLIND! OFF TO THE SHOPPING BIN! ohjeeee Rihanna! what situations you always get me into....! The question everyone is probably asking now.... Has Rihanna disappointed me? I'll tell you in a minute. :D I have another very interesting story for you, what happened during the shipping time of Love Don't Be Shy, so all spontaneous.

While I was with literally, watching all of YouTube of Love Don't Be Shy reviews, my excitement grew and grew. I was almost freaking out.
The next day I had to go to Switzerland, Zurich, on business. I really wanted to go to one of those great shopping malls of Zurich. While I was trying out all the fragrances in the designer corner, I didn't even have Love Don't Be Shy in mind. Generally Kilian fragrances. While I was tearing apart the Designer Corner. It was the niche's turn! What do I start with first, I asked myself the question. Mentally, I sang off every niche brand on the signs. Toooom Ford, Amoooouage, Kiliannnn whatsssss? Kilian? Here? I walked with a quick step to the Kilian counter.
I could already see Love Don't Be Shy winking at me. I wondered, should I spray it on? Yes or No. The excitement would be gone. Still, I wanted to try it out.
The employee asked if I wanted to test it. Without much thought, I said yes. YEAH!
While she sprayed the scent on a scent strip for me, I talked about how I'm a huge Rihanna fan and that the scent is Rihanna's signature scent. Zero excited and a bit annoyed. She answered, "Yes, I know, but the fragrance has been around for a while. And the scent is special What I thought to myself. can you actually think. :D

Now to the fragrance. It came first a breath of the orange blossom, coated with the marshmallow. Noble marshmallow! In a short while the amber comes in, giving the scent a certain warmth. It got me hooked, I had to smell it all the time. After 3 hours, I noticed the marshmallows with the amber. Me being a rose hater, I think the rose was used well in this scent. The rose adds a fresh note to the warm sweet note. Among other things long lasting and a compliments catcher! The whole day this fragrance is a good companion.

On the whole, Rihanna has not disappointed me, a beautiful gourmand with great durability. and all in a beautiful bottle.
