Oriental sister of Inekes Chemical Bonding
Yesterday I received almost 20 scent samples from several lovely perfumas, so I carefully sniffed my way through. I liked this one quite well on the first nose, which is why I applied it today. Oh, he doesn't have a comment yet? Well then that fits :)
After only a few minutes I was already thinking about how I knew this scent. This citric prelude, paired with the note of sweet teas, takes me back to my youth when I first sniff it. When I was 14 I was a group leader in a children's and youth home during the summer holidays. My first vacation job. And there was this sweetened tea all day. That's exactly how I perceive that note. And I know it from another scent, even though Al Rayhan doesn't list teen notes. The fragrance twin, which I had in my possession for a long time, comes back to me immediately: Chemical Bonding by Ineke is my first Ineke fragrance and at the same time my very first Freshie. Yes, sometimes I like these fresh, light scents, even if I tend to vanilla, smoke and pepper.
Al Rahyan, like Chemical Bonding, is quite synthetic, but not in an unpleasant way, but always remains flatteringly delicate. The fresh citric remains, but the blossoms and fruits bring some sweetness and the white musk finally ears the fragrance and makes it more powdery and pleasing. I sprayed it on this morning, but the citric notes are still very clearly perceptible. I can't smell jasmine and violets right now. And I don't notice a chocolate note either. The fragrance remains pleasantly citrus-fruity and slightly floral. The synthetic is quickly evaporated and with it the children's tea note.
I think it's very, very beautiful! I'm also already thinking about whether he could move in with me, because I haven't had chemical bonding for some time now. What disturbs me a bit is the season, because Al Rayhan is a summer scent, as it is written in the book. And now winter is just around the corner. Al Rayhan is reminiscent of fresh summer cocktails and spring blossoms. Maybe that's why my order finger is still calm at the moment. One you might want to dig up again in summer.
I also feel that it is absolutely suitable for the office and everyday use. Relatively very close, no suffocating Sillage. A delicate companion for every occasion, which does not get on anyone's nerves.
All in all a very beautiful fragrance that has definitely conquered my heart. Thanks to Melisse2 for the rehearsal. Because I would never have tested this fragrance
