Liquid gold flows down the collar
Like some of the previous speakers, I became aware of this fragrance through various musicians.

Since I do not tend to blind purchases in this price segment, I ordered a sample here in the Souk. A few days later, I also already had my sample in hand.

The first spray was almost unspectacular ... that should be it now?!
No "love at first smell", so much is certain - however, in Bois d'Argent of Dior is clearly more depth than one may probably first recognize.

A few weeks after I had used up my sample, the purchase of the 125ml bottle was actually inevitable - I actually fell in love with the perfume.

Unfortunately, I can not explain why the association of the "liquid gold" always comes into my head.

In my opinion, I perceive Bois d'Argent by Dior significantly closer to the body than all the others.
Sometimes you could describe it as an "invisible scarf" - which probably also has to do with the sillage.

Hardly has one put on the "invisible scarf", so you feel warm and secure.

My "first" perfume
As the title of this review might suggest, I can't remember my first perfume. Presumably I'm not the first person here to think about it and not be able to remember.

That "Guilty pour Homme" by Gucci could probably possibly ignite my passion for perfumes, even the saleswoman in the duty-free shop in Cyprus could not have guessed.

But let's start from the beginning:

It's summer - I'm in my apprenticeship - the first big holiday is coming

After intensive research, I have decided on Cyprus as my holiday destination.
However, let's jump straight to the duty-free shop in Cyprus.

We were received friendly and without thinking much I was eager to buy something for my mother there.

How I then landed after successful search for my mother at the testers of Gucci know unfortunately no more. There it was - the first contact with the Guilty pour Homme of Gucci.
It was probably a "love at first smell" as it is called here often.

Now it came to the decision: "EdT" or "EdP"?
As an "inexperienced lad" I did not know these terms - I was aware that there are different strengths / shelf life but I have never used the technical terms / terms.
One must say perhaps in addition that Gucci mentions this also only on the packing and if necessary hidden at the soil of the Flakons.

I have decided after a short period of reflection and presence of the saleswoman for the "EdT" version. The stronger "EdP" has me probably when testing simply deterred by the "sharpness".

Just under 80€ less in the wallet and a passion richer.

From today's perspective, I would probably no longer buy the perfume, as I am accustomed to other sillage / durability and my horizons have expanded significantly.
