Serafina

"Erreuno"? I've never heard of this Spanish brand and therefore I've never heard of the perfume of the same name. So once again a blind purchase on the Internet for my vintage collection.

I am positively surprised! A rather complex floral-fruity fresh scent with a subtle spicy note in the background, probably of cinnamon. With such a mixture of flowers I can rarely identify a single note, here at most jasmine and lily of the valley with a lot of good will. The sweetness is very moderate, probably citrus and lavender in the top note for a slightly tart counterbalance.

In terms of its nature, "Erreuno" has a certain similarity for me with perfumes like "Venezia Pastello" or "Tresor", which both still have a distinct peach note, which is missing in "Erreuno" and also seems sweeter. But the base has a lot in common with musk and sandalwood. But "Tresor-Hater" can test "Erreuno" without hesitation - it's only my subjective classification into fragrance families that creates a certain proximity between the fragrances here.

Overall, it is a (typical for the time) quite intense perfume, which I consider more suitable for a spring evening, also for going out, than for during the day.

Again a fragrance from the Moomin series by Demeter.

First of all: there is nothing woody and woodsy here at all!
I find this fragrance to be flowery and fresh, with a slightly fruity green note that probably comes from the apple. Overdosed it can even have a slightly pungent effect, moderately dosed I perceive it as a beautiful spring perfume, which reminds me a little (!) of "Escape". I don't think this association is all that far-fetched - after all, apple, jasmine, rose and musk are mentioned in both pyramids. "Escape", however, is a little bit more fruitful.

In any case, I consider this fragrance (as well as "Finish Snowfield" from the same series) to be a well wearable (and for me) pleasant perfume, not only, as with many Demeter scents, just to recreate a scent taura to stimulate the "scent memory".

...I like my clothes very much, especially when they are imaginatively colourful! Okay, here I only deal with black and white. I became aware of this fragrance by searching for another perfume in the forum, which was some time ago. I remembered this when there was a good offer on the internet.

What was waiting for me? An unusually large bottle, definitely filled with propellant. First a hairspray note... then, quite clearly: aldehydes en masse! A floral-aldehyde mix, typical for the 70s, luckily without oakmoss. Moss is mentioned, but I don't perceive it here in the bitter-bitter, in the beginning often even sour way, as I usually know (and fear) from oak-moss laden perfumes of that time.

I'm still not really enthusiastic about the fragrance, even though it's already quite o.k. and still wearable...but the best thing for me is the nostalgic bottle, which I like to have in my vintage collection.

In the comments and statements, it is mentioned several times that this perfume sometimes met with rejection from the surroundings. I can't really understand that, because "individual" is in my opinion a quite pleasing perfume.

I had it - like some others - in my youth (because it was cheap) and now I have bought a new, unused bottle that smells intact. The resemblance to "Laura" is quite strong in my opinion (I agree with Liquorice Gel), even if they are not twins in the strictest sense - but they are definitely a "sister". "Laura" seems to me a little more tender and lovely, "Individuelle" has a slightly spicy and woody note (cedar?). All in all, both are flowery and fresh spring scents with a light melon note, but this only gives a discreet fruity character.

Once again: I can't really understand what should really be bothering about it...but taste is just individual!

...I have in my garden, besides the classic yellow form and various other variants regarding size and flower shape. Size and flower shape. Shortly after blooming, the inner calyx still appears pale yellow (as seen in my bottle photo), but soon shines uniformly with the outer petals in pure, innocent-looking white.
I have to think of these flowers when I think of this perfume - although the title doesn't sound so innocent at all, and even less so the head cinema at DonJuandeCat's comment. But then, "Blanche" is French for "white" (feminine form) and besides, narcissus is a main note in this perfume.

First, according to the pyramid, but first the iris, in typical rather dry, slightly powdery way. Narcissus and hyacinth follow but very soon and let the fragrance seem a little fresher and "greener". Still, it remains a distinctly floral but unsweet scent that strikes me as quite elegant, not at all playful. Unlike in some other perfumes, the hyacinth shows a relatively gentle side and seems much less "scratchy" than in "Margaretha Ley" or "Jacinthe et Rose" (both of which I also appreciate precisely because of this almost somewhat pungent note) and also not as harsh as in "Bluebell" (also by Penhaligon's). In the further course, the perfume gets a minimal tendency in the soapy direction.

I fell in love with this perfume of spring flowers based on a sample. Since no sharing was in sight, it should be but once a bottle from this not exactly cheap, but decorative series of the front of me generally quite appreciated brand Penhaligon's. And it actually found a reasonably affordable offer on the Internet. The elaborately designed falcon is also pretty to look at. The dark color of the liquid is unusual for a perfume from rather bright flowers, but fits well with the design with the animal head (I guess a leopard - because of the picture on the box).

This perfume I consider at moderate dosage suitable for the office, but is also well suited for going out, if you appreciate floral fragrances.
