(Are You) The One That I've Been Waiting For?
Isn't everyone here looking for THE fragrance?
The kind that makes you go "zoooom" and somehow strikes a chord inside you?
One where the want-to-have-devil doesn't even have to roundhouse kick the want-to-have-your-finances angel off his shoulder because the angel voluntarily pulls the cord?
"Shut up and take my money (even if I have to go into debt for it)"?
Ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce: Celadon!
I've been sitting here for hours and can't think of anything clever to say because I'd like to completely inhale my skin. I would NEVER have thought that this would be my "love at 1st sight" candidate. Joah, new introduction, Miller Harris I basically like one or the other, let me test... and now this sample has been lying on my table for days and is shamefully ignored because Madame had "better" things to test. In a RomCom, the female protagonist would be pining over her handsome neighbor at this point, while the nice colleague who has a crush on her continues to starve on her long arm.
Then I read the two very positive statements from two perfumers I hold in high esteem and grabbed the sample from the to-be-tested pile. Left , right uffn Arm... the sky tore open, heavenly choirs let out their hallelujah... well, something like that! But in any case, it must have been more than just one synapse that went crazy, because since then I've been sitting in front of the computer REALLY alternately sniffing and muttering "boah it's great great great great".
And with ZERO expectations, the fragrance pyramid offered something for every taste and also some things that I normally think "oh no" (I don't really need tuberose, moss is Russian roulette, smoky notes can completely backfire... and who actually categorized it as "fruity"???). In this jumble of dozens of notes, no one can claim "ah yes, it's clearly the magnolia, not the rose, it was the magnolia..." But just as Clark Kent takes off his glasses, unbuttons his shirt and becomes Superman, while Lois Lane gets little hearts in her eyes, it is precisely this muddle that instantly creates a fantastic, unsweet(!), white-green tea-skin-clean-cream structure for me. Elegant (but not powdery!) femininity - I have finally found my "Grace Kelly". It's also an incredibly pleasing green-black tea blend, completely without bitterness, and fortunately there's nothing smoky here either - at most the black number on my account is smoky ... speaking of smoke - as with most tea fragrances, the silage is pleasant and rather close to the body, but gently wafts around you as you move. It won't get on anyone's nerves, but it is pleasantly perceptible and, above all, doesn't fade immediately after 10 minutes.
Our RomCom protagonist is tempted to have a coffee with her initially unassuming colleague, who is British and only drinks tea. He captivates her more and more with his subtle charm and fine sense of humor. And he doesn't actually look that bad in his soft avocado green suit with the discreet gold watch. Somehow modern and yet classy, has style... square glasses... like Clark Kent...
Spoiler: the proposal takes place at sunset on the cliffs by the sea, of course she says yes and they live happily ever after in a small cottage on the coast and drink their afternoon tea together every afternoon - she green, he black - in the garden where lots of white flowers bloom.... THE END
I'm off to saddle up my rainbow unicorn, I've activated a new quest - I have to give a treasure er scent a new home.
