The wicked lady
Like so many others, I had also considered whether I need the "le parfum" at all, if I have the normal version.

With the normal La belle I find the top note terrible. But once I have survived that, I love the fragrance.
At the normal La belle disturbs me the overripe (I think someone has called it here "box pear"), box pear one with full force olfactory in the fr... hits!

Even if you can almost no difference erschnuppern if you compare the two versions side by side (once the normal on the left wrist and le parfum on the right), but this is to be noticed as soon as you use the perfume solo.

The le parfum is somehow better balanced. Here there is also a pear, but one that gives you no uppercut, but yet comes much more discreetly therefore.
Everything seems overall a little softer and rounder. The top note is not as "bitchy" as in the normal La belle and the lady comes slightly wicked, or should I say smoky hence? No, it's not really smoky a la fireplace. There is something baslsam smoky, subtle and fine. This then mixes with a beautiful, not overripe pear and a pleasant vanilligen sweetness.
Everything is very round and coherent.

The durability and sillage compared to the normal La belle I would describe as somewhat lower. Whereas the "Ur La belle" once at Easter sprayed on yes also holds until Santa Claus comes.

The sillage is somewhat lower, which is probably also due to the fact that you do not pull an overripe pear cloud with you around, which can go to people who do not like the fragrance also olfactory quite on the chestnuts :D

The bottle is beautiful, although I still miss a lid Mr. Gaultier!

Conclusion: both fragrances have their justification. The "Ur La belle" sugary sweet, comforting vanilla as a beautiful cuddle feel-good fragrance or during the day to dream and "le parfum" as Datenightduft, for the cocktail bar or other corona-compliant activities that are found in the evening in autumn or winter ;-)

I would not like to miss either of them. Just for people who find the "Ur La belle" too penetrating, should sniff times at our wicked lady!

This blind buy was worth it!
Sweet and fresh, but by fresh I do not mean aquatic, it evokes associations of a fragrant day cream. One spray and you feel cared for, fresh and clean. A few "Italian body powder vibes" I also associate with the fragrance, although it is not powdery. It is simply this well-groomed feeling, which the fragrance thus awakens.
He is not sultry, pungent, pappsüß or even too intrusive. In my opinion, a super all-rounder. Whether in the office, leisure or before going to sleep.
Has surprised me positively!

Flowers and pear afterwards soap
Hello my dear fragrance noses!
For me, the fragrance smells in the prelude of pear, sweet flowers and then turns a short time later into a high-quality and good smelling guest soap. He smells but then actually just soapy. I don't always like this soapy smell, here it's fine BUT is quite "pungent" even though I only sprayed two sprays on my wrist. I think if I had sprayed my upper body with it, it would have mutated into a headache canidate.
From my own experience, the Eu de Cologne of many Jo Malone's does not hold particularly well, but this fragrance is easily perceptible for 4-5 hours.
I'm still undecided, but think it will not buy Kanidat. Really "blow me away" he does not ;-).
Especially since the prices are already pretty steep. Who likes soapy perfumes should sniff here times dran!

Perfect summer scent 2021
After the first spray I smell banana. Although exactly this decorates the bottle lid, it is not contained in the perfume itself. I actually always smell banana when rhubarb is included in the perfume. D&G's L'impérartrice also smells like banana to me. Since I like banana, first plus point! :)
As the fragrance progresses, it becomes pleasantly creamy, which is probably "due" to the almond milk and cashmeran. Has a bit of "Niveacremevibes" but not too slaying. In addition, joins slightly floral the narcissus and quite subtly I perceive a slight spiciness of cedar wood.
Abstract: slightly fruity, sweetish, creamy, slightly floral, tangy.

Marc Jacobs fragrances are actually not mine at all, but this one is a real hit. I had discovered the "Perfect" on vacation in the perfumery and actually only tried because the banana on the flacon lid appealed to me :))
Was then surprisingly a Kaufkanidat and had to move in immediately with me. Unfortunately, even after a short time I no longer perceive the scent, only skin tight. My friend takes him still long was, so I would describe the sillage as good. I myself use but already several sprayers, because the fragrance is unfortunately not long-lasting enough for me.
The bottle is a matter of taste, I find him sweet :).
However, the price for the Düftchen is already quite high, I bought him with a discount promotion, otherwise I would have reconsidered. In Germany I have not seen him yet. In Holland, according to the seller, he is the most sold fragrance (as of August 2021).

For me, almost "PERFECT"!

Have you washed your hair?
In the attack there is a tart apple, light creaminess and freshness. Something slightly floral resonates. The fragrance has something clean, tangy which actually evokes spring associations. My friend asked me the other day if I had freshly washed my hair (had sprayed it into my hair ;) ). His perception was something floral and fresh. I actually don't like sour notes either, but it balances out here. I think it's a great scent and I like using it. In spring or on not too warm summer days, it is the perfect companion. The can also be sprayed on quietly generous. Since one makes nothing wrong! In my opinion, perfect for dates, leisure, office ... Not too intrusive and you smell well-groomed, or "after freshly washed hair", which is not the worst ;
The bottle is beautifully designed.
Price performance is in the middle segment, find the fragrance already somewhat overpriced.

The fragrance is overall perhaps not a masterpiece of perfumery art but a nice (slightly overpriced) everyday fragrance in which you find a companion, which (so far) also not every second carries.
