Shaking

This or something like this must have been how my dear fellow travellers (I sincerely apologize) felt when I took the slow train from Austria to Germany for 11 hours...without changing trains...in this midsummer...a brand new test so.
It must have been an experience for both sides, whereby the more positive was surely on mine ?????

I have to say that I had already tested Noir Extreme before and rated it with a very good 8.5.
But after the train ride I have to revise my opinion and ...drumroll...adjust it upwards !
Noir Extreme receives now from me a 9,5...to a reference 10 it is not quite enough, but my personal front runner also comes from Ford (test follows to a special occasion, be curious)

Actually I wanted to fall back the morning before the journey, on a somewhat more discreet smell ...Allure Homme Eau De Toilette.

I already had my nimble finger on the spray head when I heard a "crack" from my fragrance cabinet.
When I opened the cupboard carefully, Noir Extreme, extreme smooth approached me (no scent was injured, be calmed)
This hint of fate and the fact that winter is still far away and I just wanted to smell the scent again, must have moved me to the fact that Noir and not Allure landed on my skin

The initial situation
1.The train ride was, as already written above, long...11 hours
2.One wagon was too little that day
3.Another wagon had to be cleared due to failure of the air conditioning

The result
The train was overcrowded until it didn't work anymore ....Noir and I in the middle of it.

This smell has sweetened, in the truest sense of the word, my train ride !
All bad smells around me..also from other people, who are definitely not at Parfumo, were kept away from me by a sweet aura of oriental bliss, with Noir Extreme as a protective shield.
Noir has delivered ...and how...almost 11 hours!

This unbelievable scent of mandarin and Kulfi, with its discreet spice, brought me even after a long time, a really nice compliment that I was very happy about!
A conductor (who I really felt sorry for that day, because they can usually never do anything for it) asked if he can "stay" here, because it smells "damn good" here ☺

I haven't gone into the scent itself that much now, but I still think it contains all relevant information for a round picture of my personal scent experience.

A call in view:
People should, at least in trains, use more perfume ☺

By the nice comment of Helena1411 on the fragrance became attentive, I bought this to me nothing, you nothing blindly :)

Due to the lack of an "everyday" summer scent (Tom Fords Mandarino di Amalfi is simply too bad and too expensive for me for every day :) this wink with the fence post just came in handy.

All right, let's get to the scent experience:

The smell can be divided with me into exactly 3 to 4 components:
The name-giving fig, juicy peach, creamy coconut milk and the sensual musk.

Once sprayed on the skin, a delicious, creamy, slightly acidic scent is no longer present.
The fig is the clock around which all the other fragrance components arrange themselves; I particularly like the creamy coconut milk, which I can really perceive well, and I'm really surprised about it

Actually I am not a friend of coconut in fragrances, because this fragrance often seems very synthetic and sticky to me, but here it forms a great balance to fig.
The fig and the coconut share their place on the sunny side with a very light peach note, which sometimes blows around my nose....wonderful.
The musk holds everything in place, as it should be, in place.

Another word about the sweetheart:
I would categorize the fragrance as unisex, with a slight tendency towards the feminine side...but never too sweet that men couldn't wear it.
It is simply a beautiful, slightly sweet-smelling summer scent that radiates a good mood.

The shelf life is fully okay, 6-7 hours the fragrance creates loose (on clothes even longer)
I would estimate the Sillage nevertheless weaker, but this does not make in my eyes so much, since the price performance ratio is simply correct. (a little spray can't hurt :) )

Conclusion:
Who like me was still looking for a summer fragrance for 2019, should definitely give this fragrance a chance. It just makes me feel good and radiates a casual aura of summery joie de vivre.

The scent doesn't do much wrong, (Sillage vllt.) but for that, all the more right...provided you like fig scents or are like me, looking for something new.

Happy was for me, as for one or the other, all forgotten.
I can still vaguely remember now that I have "found him again" and the memories of him are sprouting up, it was one of my first fragrances which I may call my own.

If my memory doesn't deceive me, I got it as a present from my grandmother, who unfortunately died already.
That's why this fragrance will somehow always have a special place in my heart
--The "Nostalgia Glasses" for a simply beautiful time....without worries; without obligations
Since I am a "summer child", this would come as a birthday present from my grandmother quite well, because the fragrance unfolds its full potential at high temperatures.
I can't answer why my grandma chose this fragrance anymore, it must have been a mixture of price performance and advice, which perfume would suit a pubescent :)
From then on Happy was my faithful companion, be it after football training (of course without taking a shower, Happy takes care of that) or at school (dosage ? yes 10 sprayers have to be)

And then he was gone...
how erased from memory ....how does it actually smell ? why ? why ? why ?
To be honest, I can't say it anymore, probably because Happy didn't fit to my "childish" self anymore and you wanted to be "MAN", which is also reflected in the scent.
END Part 1 ?

No!
Time jump..... approx. 15 years later, while browsing through relevant online perfumeries, I suddenly become aware of this orange bottle through advertising on the side and from the back corner in my head the memory is there again.... "You know him, don't you?!"
Just Happy.
Since I would like to order a fragrance anyway, I think to myself: "Oh what the hell, you simply order it with...don't cost the world"

Said done:
Of course, how could it be any different than when I hold the package in my hands, I only have eyes for the other scent, which I really wanted to have....Happy is not happy at all about it and after a short smell test on the sprayer, is stowed away as "Aha, a citrus scent" in the back of the scent cabinet
END Part 2 ?

No of course not...let's fast-forward the time...summer 2019
It's weekend
Me and my sweetheart want to go hiking again.....everything is packed, the shoes laced only one is missing....a light summer scent.
So I rummage around in my scent cabinet and who laughs at me all of a sudden, like the sun, in your brilliant orange at ?
Happy

If not now, when then...cap up and down with you on skin and shirt.
"Okay..." I think, "But you're a very fresh one...
Synthetic ? Yes, but well done....I like you.....why have I spurned you so long !
It was you who was my first "Duftfreund" !

And what can I say:
We were certainly 6 hours on the road and Happy did what he always does, then as now...he just underlined a nice snapshot to me once again.

Be it in the gorges, with small waterfalls or on the alp with meadows.....always I had this light, fresh breeze of mandarin and green shades in my nose.

Some would say he was monton ?
Maybe, but what he does, he does well !

Some would say he doesn't last long
On the T-shirt he was to be heard really the whole day and always easily present !

Too much nostalgia and rose glasses, where does the objectivity ? remain?
As mentioned above, he will now again have a place of honor in my heart.
I'm sure he's not an "over-scented." Happy knows that, I know that!

But if a fragrance manages to convey the same beautiful emotions over the years, then I think you can just be Happy !

This is how I felt today, when the sprayer of Qasamat Morhaf (QM) slipped away easily !

I should have been warned about Arabic fragrances, that quiet fragrances are not necessarily in the bottle, but what should happen and 4!!! FOUR!!! Sprayed on arm bend and shirt.

Boom...explosion...roses fly uncontrolled through the bill...meet me everywhere.
Just hit it, I'm powerless.
But wait...what's that???
Sugar trickles from the ceiling, accumulates...suddenly I stand knee-deep in the sugar from which roses grow.

How do I get all this back from the apartment ?

Desperation spreads..through the window I see radiant sunshine...that thermometer shows 25 +...
Sweat beads run over my forehead...my sweetheart comes from the next room (whether from the scent or my snap breathing? I don't know)

Her eyes are widening and you're driving away "Boah boy, what's up with you"...

Okay, now there's no time to lose...

I wade through a sea of roses, it sticks...
The shirt more torn from the body than unbuttoned and with last strength in the laundry basket sunk....the door is closed...it gets better.

Summary:
It sounds like it, but it's not a tear :)

I made only 2 elementary mistakes:

1. Overdosage
2. The wrong season

I really like the scent itself, only it is definitely meant (at least on my male skin) for the winter and there also economical to dose.
It is, as noted, room-filling.

On closer inspection, I also hear other fragrances, but they are still developing.

There will also be a supplement to the winter test.
Because I believe firmly in the fact that the smell comes better !

At least I'm smarter now :)

I had bought the fragrance about 2 weeks ago blind, because I was looking for something "Nísche" for the small price.

Full of anticipation the package opened and first of all the really great, made of wood, over packaging admired. In my opinion, the bottle itself is also very beautifully designed and offers a foretaste of the fragrance it encloses.

Said done and sprayed a shot on the wrist....WOW....full on the 12...
My inner voice I hear admonishingly saying: "This will be difficult to integrate the scent into everyday life" ;
even though he likes with personal, right away at first go.

So first tested the scent for me at home and demonstrated it to my sweetheart.
Her original tone: "But he smells good, so masculine, but also gentle, lovely, flattering, but I can understand if you don't like the scent well. It's a statement !POINT!

Okay, so it's not a total disaster for my environment, I guess.

Through Oud Wood I came to the taste of Oud fragrances, although this compared to Dhanal Oudh Nashwah (DON) rather, as I now know, like the dear little sister, who at the Easter fire with native distance, that flaming spectacle from the safe distance regards, works

DON is the guy who can't stand close enough to the fire and thinks to himself: "What can cause a little fire like that"... "unfortunately" or "thank God" this guy forgets that a spark on the wrong underground can ignite a conflagration of biblical proportions. (and that's, as funny as it sounds, meant positively)
(Scent vehicle's note: The guy is me, the spark is (DON), the underground is the office :) )



Meaning
2 weeks later the courage seized and the smell released on my environment.
And what can I say: I have never received so much feedback on a perfume before and almost all of them positive
(colorfully mixed, whether male or female, although I have to say that my colleagues found this smell a little better than the men)
The magic word here is: "Dosage" ! ....2 sprays are perfectly sufficient and this fragrance is also well wearable in hot weather and in the office.

What is the fragrance like now:
The fragrance starts like an incense swirl filled to the brim, filled with oud and other woods that have almost been burned.
However, this smoke is not a pungent, biting representative, but is directly accompanied by a pleasant sweetness that comes from honey. The honey is not sticky and too sweet, but keeps the woods together. So to speak, a very light wood glue that holds everything together.

In addition there are slightly herbaceous notes, (juniper for sure, I don't know Immortelle from the smell)
which perfectly round off the fragrance.

After approx. 2 hours the scent becomes softer and rounder with me
This is for me the most beautiful part of the fragrance process.
The woods, the honey....everything is soft, rounded, never stinging.
For me a dream.

Durability and Sillage:
Surely above average, that's why you should dose sparingly during the day, you shouldn't work alone as an archivist :)

It remains to be said that I am curious how the scent changes in winter and how it works on a summer evening when I go away.
For me the fragrance is really an insider tip, but it requires a portion of courage from its wearer.
Also I can say that the fragrance is by far not for everyone, but with the price, everyone should try it, who wants to try something different.

Clearly unisex, although it also depends on the type man and woman.
For someone who is introverted and cannot handle comments of any kind, this fragrance should be used with caution.
