Darling..
... You don't need to be shy.

This rosy, floral fragrance, which initially covers the sweet marshmallow and envelops it delicately, is simply beautiful to my nose.

This beautiful, floral opening lasts for about 1-2 hours, then the marshmallow slowly comes out of hiding and becomes less shy, it even becomes slightly "rebellious" ;)
The orange blossom, together with neroli, are more or less the "big sisters" who stay in the background and see if the marshmallow needs support.

Somehow this fragrance probably smells simpler than it actually is and not only more grown-up than its little sister "Love don't be shy", but also less artificial, rosier, more floral and also more persistent.

The two fragrances are essentially different in the opening, as well as in the sillage and longevity, which are much more pronounced here.

While "Love don't be shy" goes straight into a rather - in my opinion - synthetic marshmallow, which sticks to the skin in a sugary sweet way and disappears after a few hours or can only be smelled if you hold your nose to the sprayed area, "Extreme" is present for several hours and is much more complex.

The result is a rounder and softer overall impression.

In addition, the rose is just so rosy that it smells very feminine, but not too overpowering or like Grandma Hilde's perfume collection.

Punk Rock Barbie
I only wrote a statement about the "little sister" of the eau de parfum.
The "big sister", on the other hand, deserves to be examined a little more closely.

First of all: for me, this fragrance is more feminine, even if it has very smoky notes, but I find cherry fragrances difficult to classify as masculine. However, of course, everyone can wear what they like. :)

"Cherry Punk" yo. A typical "bad girl", just a "punk rock Barbie".
She's chilling in a bar, holding a sweet port in one hand and a Cherry Coke in the other to soften the port. Next to her is an ashtray, on which she places her cigarette, the smoke enveloping her.
The smoke is not cold at all, no cold ash, rather fresh smoke that clings to her leather jacket.

The cherry and the Coke fade as time passes, our punk rock Barbie is no longer drinking anything, she is no longer quite so sweet. She stands in front of the bar, smoking one cigarette after another, yes, you could probably call her a chain smoker.

At the end of the night, sound and smoke have almost evaporated, only when I snuggle up close to her can I still smell how much she smoked last night. With a hint of sweet cherry sticking to her lips.

The scent is easy to detect, even if you are standing at a slight distance from the person wearing it.
The longevity and sillage are slightly better than the eau de parfum. I would describe the fragrance as a twin and if you own the eau de parfum, you can probably use it up before turning to the extrait.

amoureux
I'm a lover, a "rolling in love" lover, who rolls so much in love when he smells this fragrance that it's almost unhealthy.

First of all: I would assign this fragrance more to the ladies' world. Of course, everyone can wear what they like, but for me as a wearer, it is definitely too feminine.

Imagine the most beautiful woman you have ever seen, wearing red lipstick, a short black evening dress, a pair of high heels, holding her sinfully expensive handbag close to her body and smiling mischievously at you.
That's exactly what this fragrance smells like.

And I would like to hug this woman, sniff her scent up close, because her scent doesn't fill the room, but is close to her body and more intimate. For her and me.

She smells of almond milk, perhaps slightly buttery, perhaps slightly sour, at least when the fragrance is freshly sprayed on. After some time had passed and I held it tightly in my arms, I sniffed a floral sweetness mixed with a delicate vanilla note. Sweet, yes, that's what it is now.
No longer sour, but sweet, the evening is a success, the lipstick, which leaves a light powdery note, is now slightly smudged.

But wow, she still smells so good, so fresh, so sweet, so floral and powdery - and after several hours - close to my skin. I want to snuggle up to her and have the scent in my nose until the next morning.

I've must be rollin' in love ;)

Swell.
I've actually wanted to test Bond No. 9 fragrances for a while now, because the bottles appeal to me somehow.
Star-shaped, squiggly, kind of interesting.

Well, "Shelter Island" kind of appealed to me. Fishy? I can't find anything smelly. Seaweed? What do the pieces smell like? To me, this smell is just the smell of a casual, easy day at the beach, doesn't have to be a sandy beach, no. It smells more like a ride on a ferry, maybe even on the Staten Island Ferry.
I still remember my New York vacation very well and this scent really catapults me back there, but I also remember a trip to Cuxhaven and London. The main thing is water nearby, not necessarily a beach, rather salty water, stiff breezes, strong wind blowing in my face while I enjoy the sun.
I've never been to the North Sea, maybe I could find myself there with this scent, but it definitely gives a very nice feeling without reminding me of fish in any way, I don't like them. I don't even want to eat them. D

A very fresh, aquatic scent emanates from "Shelter Island", which can be felt as pungent for the first 5 minutes, but then spreads around me as if it belongs to me and will definitely move in with me for the warmer days.
I can't really make out the individual scents, and as I said... What do algae actually smell like?! Like fish? Like sea? Well... I can only really perceive the lemon if I concentrate
In itself I find the scent very well done, gives a round overall picture of all the scents (algae?!) and when I close my eyes I think of putting on a windbreaker and heading for the sea. Maybe a tidal flat hike as well? Who knows

Suitable for daytime, leisure activities and spring and summer. Maybe also for the early evening hours. Casual, Hawaiian shirt, shorts, sunglasses. No suit. Just vacation. ;)

The Sillage and durability I find not so bad at all.
After about one hour the scent is perceived super pleasant by the outside world and I distribute my summer love to every other person within a radius of one meter, whether they like it or not. ;)
It lasts about 7 hours on me and I don't need it any longer, because it is supposed to be a fragrance for the day. (Well, for me at least) and even then, I can still perceive it very closely when I press my nose against myself

Test recommendation! Blind buy? Probably not.

Sparkling Ginger
By chance I came across this scent, I can't even reconstruct the situation properly.
In any case, I was looking for a summery night out or evening scent with which one can also go to clubs, rather in the easy direction and from the niche corner.
I have tested myself through some things and most of what was suggested to me was good but often too hard or too sweet.

And now I'm here. By the Jiggle Water Dark, totally unpopular.
The comments and statements here on Parfumo and the blog entry about the fragrance on the page "For the love of fragrance" encouraged me to order a sample.

The fragrance itself starts off very fresh, each individual fragrance note indicated in the top note mixes to a pleasant "uniform mash". Ginger, lemon and a hint of cardamom create a fresh overall picture that fits wonderfully into warm evening hours.
I also have the illusion of carbonic acid, a slight tingling in the nose completes the impression.
Little by little the scents of malt, caramel, cedar and musk join in the background, the ginger remains - in my opinion - but always in the foreground, just like the lemon and the light freshness.
I experience a slight twist after about 3 hours of wearing, the scent gets a little darker, loses its freshness and unfortunately also its sillage. In general, I find Sillage and durability not necessarily intoxicating, but still in the midfield
On me, the dark sparkling water is only perceived very closely after about 3 hours, every now and then when I move, a really nice scent composition blows into my nose, but this is then only a shadow of itself. Unfortunately! I would like to freeze the scent from the first second on as it is and then keep it for 10 hours.

Perfect for going out and clubbing.
It also goes during the day in the spare time and with many activities outside.
Casual, not too formal.
Rather no man in a suit and more masculine than unisex.

In any case, it is an absolute insider tip, girls and women have already asked me several times about the unique fragrance.
Also I have never been allowed to smell anything in that direction before.
Test recommendation! This fragrance definitely deserves more love and attention ;)
