Well, my statement doesn't tell you anything about this scent, just who I think it is. That's why I'm now writing another comment.

So Caroline Herrera fragrances have never really interested me. Except for this scent. I mean, the bottle is really very appealing. High Heel in dark blue, you really think of a wicked scent for the evening. Well, the name doesn't really match the bottle. There would be Bad Girl or Sexy Girl or whatever better suited ;)
But the content doesn't fit the bottle for me anyway... Cause there's nothing wicked or sexy...

On the test strip, he just smelled sweet and trivial. In this day and age very trendy. You know. Nothing special but also not shit. But you should always test scents on your skin anyway.
That was a huge mistake!!!!

The scents don't sound bad, maybe a little too much at once, but they don't have to mean anything bad, but they don't show up at all!! I just smell some petty sugar water, with a pungent, unpleasant fruity note that makes me sick.
Otherwise, I just smell something babbic adulterated together that doesn't even come close to paying the price for me.
Cinnamon? Nope. Would have been interesting. Roses & Jasmine? I don't think so either. Orange blossom? Yeah, that could be the stabbing note. Although I like orange blossom very much in most scents..

The worst thing is still that I was told for the first time that I stink and what a disgusting perfume I would wear (thanks also -.-). Although I actually stood/s sat far away...

Well there we come to the Sillage and shelf life. That's the only positive thing about the scent and for me yesterday hell ;D
The perfume really lasts for hours and that with a mini spray on the wrist that I also tried to scrub away.

Oh yes my comment should not attack anyone who finds the smell great. But I also wanted to write a negative comment, especially after the bad experience yesterday haha.
Besides, scents smell different to different people.

Too bad I smell like some of today's teenage girls who shouldn't be let out on the street because they still run around in the sneaker with cropped tops, leggings and no socks in this weather. Pelvic kidney inflammation welcome.
Or like a domina (I was told) ;D
The bottle would have really made something on my shelf... Maybe I'll just buy an empty bottle ;)

Rouge has been on the market for a while now. I didn't have the need to test it until now, because For Her EDT and EDP were too musky and got on my nerves after a while.

Today was different. The flacon laughs at you somehow. Here in a red-orange, yes! I wanted to test it now. And I have to say, jackpot, good decision!

Rouge doesn't start the way I imagined it to. I honestly don't know how I imagined him, but at least not like that ;D

First I get a fruity note (no idea but iris and rose are not, hmm) paired with a mild, sweet rose and powdery iris. The typical For Her Note doesn't come out that strong here (luckily).

I also smell jasmine in the heart note, although this is not listed here. Strange...
Anyway, rouge smells beautiful to me! Now nothing you haven't smelt before, but I think it's great.

It's sexy, feminine, fruity and flowery. Fits in spring/summer without being intrusive. But I can also imagine him great in winter.

The durability is also great. Only a few sprayers have an enormous sillage and I can't stop smelling on my arm.

Even though I have decided to use up scents again before I buy new ones, this red treasure will have to be added to my other perfumes!

On the very warm days of the year I only wear my two summer favorites: Chloe Signature & My Name.
I don't know why, but they're perfect for it for me. Citric fragrances a la Light Blue don't get on my skin, although they are very popular in summer.

Well, since I only wear these two fragrances, I'm not so interested in looking for new fragrances or testing new ones. It's quite different in the cold months...

....except yesterday ;)

For whatever reason, I walked straight to Shalimar Eau de Parfum. I have the initial (which I really love!) and the original as old-fashioned and musty in the back of my mind that I tested years ago.

What do you want me to say? The way I remembered him, he's not at all.

The beginning is opulent and flowery, but I was not knocked down by the Sillage as I had imagined. Very pleasant, actually.

I can't smell the individual notes from the scent. They are somehow merged together for me.
I like that because the heart note reminds me slightly of my beloved initial. Oriental, spicy with a certain powdery note. Adult, classic. Yeah, you can tell the relationship.

Unfortunately Shalimar doesn't smell so great towards the end.
After approx. 2 hours the fragrance develops to an old-fashioned perfume, as I had imagined it to be (well stupid run...).

It becomes musty, soapy with a strange note. Is that the opoponax? I don't know...
It's like a perfume for the mature lady from the age of 60.

Despite how bad I had him in mind, he's not. The durability surprised me, too. I thought it would be a lot harder. In total he only stayed 4 hours on my skin...

Maybe next time I should test opium again? ;)

There I remain probably with my initial, of it I have also still a while something :)
