Parfümlein

I've been arguing with myself for days. Yeah, I like that scent. Yes, I love tuberose anyway and always, it gives me in seconds a feeling of security, security, home. I'm puzzled as to what I subconsciously remember. Somehow I must have had early childhood tuberose experiences. I want to get to know every tuberose perfume in the end in order not to miss anything, not to leave out anything that my current flacons of Heartless Helen and Jo Malone and Scandal by night might not have been able to give me. Just today I was testing: Tubereuse de jour and de Nuit by Aerin. And Sonár. And Love Tubereuse by Amouage.
That reminds me... Giò from Giorgio Armani accompanied me during my studies. And yes, studying was a wonderful time. That must be it. Back then you were so young, so beautiful, so tubereuse...

Anyway, to get back to the starting point... I'm arguing with myself. I like that scent. But I don't like him either. Somehow he actually has something chewing gum-like, something artificial that surprises me and repels me a little. But at the same time it smells wonderful. I think the artificiality shows itself right at the beginning, later it gets better. It's round and beautiful. But it's also flat and shallow. What? Is the signorina now a ball or a disc?
And the bottle. How corny. How... cheap somehow. And the name. I have not been a signorina for ages, ma forse sono ancora un pò misteriosa... And the award confirms that this fragrance is basically a young girl's fragrance. Flacon, name, price and the round flat ball make this fragrance a perfectly suitable Christmas present for 17 year olds, who are finally allowed to go out on their own now and then and - of course - reach far too high, unfortunately make themselves too old so often, not knowing how refreshing their youth is and how useful it would be to enjoy it. 17-year-olds with a tuberose scent? Unthinkable. 40 year olds with this bottle? This shallow affair? Unthinkable.
And so Signorina Misteriosa honestly confronts me with a puzzle. Who's this scent supposed to be for? I suspect it might be a hemisphere. Half a platonic ball possibly. Then the solution would be simple: Find the second half and lay both together. Maybe Signorina ribelle? Some vanilla ice cream with that? I don't dare imagine what that would bring out... a mystery to whom this might appeal.
And so I continue to quarrel and remain at my starting point: the scent is uncanny to me. Almost mysterious.
We're not far from the shallow now.

I love that scent! When I read the composition, it had already happened to me: Honey and tuberose! What a combination! As a declared tuberose fan, I could no longer get the scent out of my head. Nevertheless, I chose Spirit intense from Boadicea the Victorious in search of a honey scent. But today in the city I had so much time... so let's go to the d... i sniffed... went on... but then my decision was clear.
I really love the fragrance more than anything. It's so soft, so perfectly round and gentle. I don't know why he's called what he's called. He's not scandalous. He is cozy, not too sweet, a cuddly, warm wave of well-being, whose gentle splashing almost inaudibly penetrates my consciousness... I'm very happy with him. A wonderful fragrance to give yourself completely to the feeling of gentleness. We choose a fragrance because of the mood, yes. But if the choice was the right one, then the scent changes us, adapts us even more to this feeling. We feel more complete, more perfect, more real. By mirroring us in the fragrance, we are more authentic and secure in the place we are standing right now. Not all fragrances can achieve this perfection with me. But scandal by night is one of them, and I'm really happy to have it in my collection.

Some time ago I got a small bottle of this perfume from an absolutely dear Parfuma as an addition to a purchase. Nothing special, of course, it was an addition. The bottle clearly shows that this perfume belongs to the cheaper segment and is perhaps best suited for young girls. I tried it out and was surprised: it is gentle and delicate and very inconspicuous, but clearly defined. Maybe it's because I like all the ingredients - I stand behind this little bottle with the big white star.
The delicate, flowery fragrance, the white-golden bottle - here is room for young thoughts and feelings. The beginning of growing up, the first or second fragrance of one's own, something special, no ordinary fragrance, a victory of individuality over the mainstream. And that at an absolutely unbeatable price.
My daughter was then looking for a gift for the actual gift for her friend, a gift addition, and the perfume found its home. The girlfriend has used up her first perfume, she doesn't remember the name, it has left no traces and she now has no more fragrance. So the dear addition to my purchase wanders through me and my daughter to my girlfriend. I'm almost sure she's gonna love it. It is a gift of stars, full of promises and with unexpected possibilities. It's not the fragrance that comes to the fore, but the associations it awakens and the opportunities it offers. What more could you ask of a perfume for young women?

I love my left arm, I hang constantly with the nose on it, because it smells so wonderfully... I can't do anything anymore without this scent, I can't think anything anymore... What a fantastic vanilla wave is sloshing over me! I don't really smell the orange either on the scent strip from the store or on my freshly purchased copy. I think I'm more likely to perceive mandarin, and then a little white chocolate, which is probably due to the vanilla, which is the main aroma in many white chocolates.
I perceive this fragrance development from citrus to vanilla very strongly and it does not take too long to penetrate to this soft sweetness; after one and a half hours it stands completely in the foreground and fills the room consolingly and warmly. That's why I like Dulcis in Fundo so much for dark November. So much soul food is in it, and I love the thought that I can take it with me everywhere, it accompanies me as a fragrance.
But the fascinating thing is that I didn't like the scent at all at the beginning. When I tried to get to know Profumum I saw Confetto, Dolce Acqua, Sorriso, Dulcis in Fundo and Acqua e Zucchero on cards and both Sorriso and Dulcis in Fundo didn't give me anything, I found them rather annoying.
After a good two weeks the cards developed and my office turned into a vanilla sea. Sweet and pleasant at every job I do here at my desk. But apart from the room scent, which was a mixture of the two less beloved, while the others were used as bookmarks, neither Sorriso nor Dulcis in Fundo pleased me on the cards, not even after two weeks. Only in the room were they wonderful.
After three weeks they both had their breakthrough, and I couldn't let their nose go of them anymore. So there's a development going on. But the perfection of the late fragrance is something I can't get close to - I would have to do without the shower for three weeks like in the baroque era. Therefore it seems to me to be a good idea what has often been suggested here: to take the scent with you on a piece of fabric.
I want to try it tomorrow with my brand new Dulcis in fundo, which I now also find so incredibly beautiful on the arm. I must first test the different ways in which the scent unfolds. And that's where Profumum seems to take quite a bit of time. Patience. A long breath. That's probably what you mean when you say: Dulcis in fundo
