It took three years...
...until I took you in. At first I found you repulsive, until I smelled you on my colleague. I wanted to give you a chance and I tried, but it always stopped me. I could never get you out of my head!... after a year I tried to give you a chance again, but I was quickly annoyed by you and somehow you were no longer as you once were... out of sight out of mind... and so I forgot you for a time... a short time ago you came into my thoughts like a flash of inspiration and I gave you the 3rd chance, which I will not regret. I wonder why I never kept you. You're so delicious, somewhat masculine, and just plain clean. Your presence is not short-lived. You pleasantly catch the eye of others and envelop me in a wonderfully fresh aura.

You make me feel good.

Year 2008
No perfume has so far managed to beam me back to my youth like this one!... sprayed, smelled and bang, I was 14 years old again..

In 2008, Rexona had limited edition deodorants, "Rexona girl". Anyone else remember that weird commercial, of a roller coaster with a boy on a bike? :D .... I think there were 3 different ones of the deodorants, but I had the black one. When I smelled the perfume, I didn't know what it reminded me of at first, but I knew exactly what time it was. That shocked me in the first moment, because in me also the 2008 feelings came up :D I think everyone here can feel exactly what I felt :) but I didn't know at first if it was good or bad feelings, because in that year also stupid things happened. First boyfriend, first hard heartbreak.... 1 week of camp with friends, which I had no desire to do!.. but in retrospect I was sad that it's over ;) ... all these memories are captured in this perfume. It took me an hour to know what exactly this perfume smells like. Rexona girl dance energy.

It's a fragrance that smells really girly and has deodorant vibes, which oddly enough doesn't bother me at all. A bit it also has what of Davidoff Cool Water. Despite the girly vibes I will definitely get me a bottle, just because of the great memories it evokes in me.

2008 was a formative year for me. And what I thought was bad back then, I can laugh about now! :D

How a perfume went from pure seduction to trash....
...this would not be the first fragrance that unfortunately happens.

It was 2010, when I smelled this fragrance for the first time consciously. I think at that time the hype around him began, just like with Alien. But I must say that I have not yet smelled him everywhere in every corner. This fragrance was one of those fragrances I thought I was the only owner of. I was very intrigued by the oriental sweetness. Back then, the scent came in a set with a little body lotion to go with it, just like it does today. I adored it! At that time, as far as I know, caraway was still listed in the fragrance notes, anise too. You could smell that out very well too. The scent was very "lush" and "heavy", which I quite liked. The bottle also looked a little different, the lid was completely black and the bottle still had no color gradient but was just red.... So, bottle emptied and poof! the hype around this perfume was there.... Almost every lady or girl had it and it was sprayed like a deodorant... disgusting.... a few time later many dupes came on the market, which did not make it even better, but rather worse.... Reformulated the fragrance too which was super disappointing for all lovers.... For me, the scent has something mature-like on some days, kind of like rubber, which some have already described here. It doesn't smell as dangerous as it did back then, but totally watered down, just like vanilla water. And I suspect it will be reformulated further and further, absolutely disappointing. Funnily enough, please don't be alarmed, I now find it best as a summer scent.... yes, what used to be an absolute winter scent is now a tepid summer scent.... I still wouldn't spray it over.

The durability is still there, but not as extreme as then. The next day I can no longer smell him. I could compare the scents, version 2010 and version 2016. The old version is unfortunately empty, but what I can perceive on the sprayer is really more powerful than the new version. Seeeeevery pity.

I love the fragrance anyway, but hardly use it, because really everyone recognizes it and is almost annoyed...

Orange cream
I have already tested the fragrance when it came out. Although I thought that he could fit exactly in my Beuteschema, he has me unfortunately not so well liked. He was me then but too sweet and somehow it smelled for me like a standard drugstore fragrance. Therefore, he was written off for now. But as it is always with me, he went to me, although I did not like it, no longer out of my head. It has been on my wish list for a long time. Somehow it had something familiar about it, which burned itself into my nose. When I was browsing here in the Souk, I finally found a great offer and I bought it right away. I'm really happy about that, because I suddenly like the fragrance so much that I will definitely buy the big bottle. I don't notice that standard drugstore scent anymore, thankfully. The scent doesn't have much progression on my skin, it always smells the same from top note to base note. I notice clementine and vanilla the most, hence the association of an orange cream. Does anyone know the hand soap raspberry & magnolia from Balea? For me, this is the same fragrance.

I have it to test first sprayed on a paper strip, 2x. The entire room has smelled insanely good afterwards. On the skin he holds unfortunately not so long, but on fabrics very very long. In my opinion, it is a year-round fragrance, even in summer not too extreme.

Despite the difficulties at the beginning, this is a fragrance for me that I no longer want to miss in my collection!

Raspberry jam
... in a beautiful bottle. As the owner of some Trésors, I had to try the latest flanker of course. The fragrances already sounded promising, especially the raspberry syrup has done it to me, the velvet has made me even more curious, so I could not avoid a test :) immediately after spraying I perceive a great, juicy tangerine, which makes my mouth water. The rose holds itself with me rather in the background. Very short time later flashes also already the raspberry, which makes the fragrance very fruity. It reminds me very much of raspberry jam, which I find incredibly great and delicious. Some time later, I notice a note that is really very reminiscent of velvet, making the scent somehow "soft" and "creamy". The beginning might be a bit too sharp for some, but after a while the scent develops incredibly soft on the skin, which makes it so incredibly seductive and sexy. This scent makes me feel so comfortable and not overloaded. The smokiness from the original La Nuit Trésor has been taken away a bit here, which makes the scent absolutely summer-appropriate. But again, less is more. In the hair and on the clothes the scent lasts very long, on my skin it is a moderate durability. Sillage is also in the higher range, but slays no one.

Once again a successful flanker and an absolute must for the La Nuit Trésor collection :)
