Velvety rose petals dipped in raspberry cream
I am a fan of the La Nuit Trésor line. Therefore, I had to test the latest flanker Dentelle de Roses of course.
Dentelle de Roses has definitely the same fragrance DNA, as the original La Nuit Trésor, but in my opinion it differs sufficiently from all the perfumes from the series, that it is worth buying Dentelle de Roses.
Very sweet raspberries dominate at the beginning, which become creamier in the course and quite soon joins a velvety rose.
Dentelle de Roses is, like all La Nuit Trésor perfumes, neither too girly nor too old-fashioned and therefore suitable for every woman. I also find it more wearable than the other La Nuit Trésors, which tend to work better in the evening or for occasions. Dentelle de Roses is more wearable on a daily basis. He is a bit weaker in performance, but still very noticeable in the air.
My expectations were met. If you like the La Nuit Trésors, then Dentelle de Roses is a safe blind buy.

Reference Amber Fragrance
Ambre Loup is a wonderful, multi-layered, warm amber scent.
The prelude brings me every time anew to my limits - sharp, animalic, smoky. But it is worth it! After about 10 minutes, the whole magic of Ambre Loup unfolds.
It is an amber fragrance with many facets: Woody, spicy, smoky, powdery, resinous and just the right amount of sweetness.
In the drydown, tonka bean and vanilla are quite present on my skin, plus I keep thinking I smell a tobacco note out, but it's not stated.
The durability is super, but the sillage could be better, as he is rather skin after about 2 hours.
Amber fans must try the!
I'm still feeling my way around amber scents. Ambre Loup is definitely the new benchmark.

Not worth the hype
One has almost the feeling to have missed something, if one has not tested Angels' Share of Kilian last year.
So when I saw a good deal the other day, I snapped it up and bought the scent blind. Well, not really blind, because here are so some fragrance twins indicated that I know.
Right up front: for all those who also have fear of missing out here - all good, you miss with Angels' Share nothing earth-shattering.
The prelude is spectacular, but after that it smells, like many other fragrances, some of which are especially much more affordable.
Angels' Share is nevertheless a fabulous fragrance with good performance, even if durability and sillage could be better.
The combination of sweet cognac, tipsy vanilla, delicate woods and lots of cinnamon is totally unisex and wearable every day in the colder seasons.
Sometimes I perceive something minty (toothpaste? After Eight?) in the drydown, which I absolutely can not assign.

So that's how a lava lamp smells
I am an absolute bottle and concept victim. Sure, first and foremost I still have to be convinced by the scent of a perfume, but oh Lord, a lava lamp as scent! I do! 240€ for 100ml. Well, there goes my eye, twitching nervously. But you have to shake it before spraying and it glitters in the sun!
Bought!
Let us now come to the (insignificant) essential: How does Cloud Collection smell? Herb-fruity and woody. I see a lot of sea buckthorn there. There is no trace of jasmine and the woods mix only towards the end, but always remain in the background.
Sea buckthorn is by far my favorite "clean" fragrance. I always get associations with sun-tanned skin and freshly washed laundry that dries outside in summer. And actually Cloud Collection smells just like that to me, too.
It is warm, creamy-fruity, sensual, sweet and yet slightly fresh. This is by no means a sticky sweetness, which is why you can carry it well even at hot temperatures.
The scent is supposed to smell different depending on the weather. On some days the perfume was less woody, but reminded me of Creme Brûlée in the later course of the fragrance. However, I could not establish a connection with the weather on these days. I rather think that the partly different scent perception is due to the ISO-E-Super. In fact, the bottle is a weatherman. If the upper liquid is clear, the weather becomes nice; if it is completely cloudy, it becomes cloudy. Of course you don't have any of that per se, but I still think it's nice.
And speaking of ISO-E-Super, that stuff always makes it difficult for me to assess the Sillage. In between you think that there is nothing left and in the next moment you are completely enveloped in the scent again. I am approached about the scent but relatively often, so you seem to be able to smell it well.
The durability is enormous in any case. On the skin it will last at least 24 hours and on clothing felt forever.
Is Cloud Collection worth the price? I think so. Of course, this whole fragrance concept is ultimately nothing more than a nice gimmick, which will hardly be a purchase argument for the normal perfume wearer. But who's normal here on Parfumo? And you can get me with these two coats of paint.
Cloud Collection is special, not only the perfume as such, but also the fragrance. I know and have some other sea buckthorn scents, but this one stands out clearly.
Certainly no perfume for everyone. But you should test him!

Chocolate Greedy who?
H&M launched an incredible number of new fragrances in 2018. Zara has been proving quite successfully for several years that something clever can come out of it. So in principle quite exciting. And if there's a scent called something with chocolate, I have to hold my nose to it.
My fragrance description for Choc is now rather short. It simply smells, who could have guessed it, of chocolate! No more and no less than pure dark chocolate. But hold the good one, with high cocoa content. Delicious, warm, creamy.
The fragrance is absolutely linear. Durability and silage are not outstanding, but perfectly fine, especially at the price.
And the resemblance I mentioned in the title to Montales Chocolate Greedy? A little clickbait.
Yes, the two fragrances naturally go in a very similar direction. No, Chocolate Greedy can't wrap. But if you simply want a great chocolate fragrance and are willing to cut back on orange notes, flacon design and shelf life, Choc is the perfect choice. But it is also much more affordable. So from my side an absolute recommendation!
And to add another chocolate scent for a moment: I find that Choc is also very similar to La Perla's Dark Extacy, even a bit more similar than Chocolate Greedy. And since the Dark Extacy is discontinued, you can consider Choc as an alternative.
Chocolate scent lovers should strike here!
