Haven't we met before?
Coromandel...heard, seen and read a lot about you.
But a blind date with you was too risky for me, so I ordered a bottling to get involved with you.
The expectation was high, quite high.
Excited I spray you on my skin right away, I want to smell you on me right now..... Oh!!! Haven't we met before? I know you, I know that beguiling scent of orange, of patchouli, vanilla, benzoin.... but where do I know you from? The memory is probably a little further back and I just can't figure it out. I'm a little disappointed. I know you, I like you, but I was expecting something newer, different. And keep on guessing...
Sitting in the car a song of the 80s by Shade sounds from the radio, now, now I know it again where I know you from. I like to associate scents with music and memories. 1985....KL by Karl Lagerfeld. Baaaam, that's it. What I loved this scent in the beautiful fan bottle....very much, in fact, and was incredibly sad when it was discontinued.
Today, however, my nose prefers other scents. But if I ever want to transport myself back to the 80s, I will definitely reach for you, Coromandel.

Spring lets out its blue ribbon..
... again flutter through the air, sweet, familiar scents, roam forebodingly the land.
This poem was the first thing that came to mind when I sniffed Mon Guerlain for the first time today.
The scent is like a journey on a motorcycle through Provence, scent of sun-warmed lavender fields, to which is added a warm breeze of jasmine and rose. The little journey continues until I come to a small town. The woody scent of old cottages comes towards me. On the village square a small folk festival where it smells promisingly of vanilla. I would like to stay here

My sleep cuddle scent
Heliotrope is a fragrance that soothes me.
When I smell it, the for me intense scent of almonds and marzipan, I feel safe. This is like sitting with mom or grandma in the kitchen while they bake cakes that smell like almond and vanilla.
This scent is home and has something comforting, homey for me.
And when I can't fall asleep after a stressful day, this scent calms me down and lulls me into sweet dreams.
I'm lucky enough to still own the first edition, which is now 10 days old. But the great thing about Etro perfumes is that even after many years the scent absolutely does not tip.
Many years ago I owned Balahé by Leonard, somehow Heliotrope reminds me of it, even if Balahé had more sexiness..
