For Passionate Non-Swimmers
I may be a Pisces, but I still shy away from the cool water. My husband has to shorten the oversized bathtub with an unwieldy box construction so that I don't end up in distress at sea. At the beach, I muster the courage to step into the sea only up to my calves - anything more seems reckless to me. It suffices for me...

Moldy Grass
In the supermarket, I always like to reach for the Mexx fragrances, and so I couldn't resist the pink Festival bottle. The opening is fresh with the pineapple leaf and aquatic with the clear pear. Great. Then floral notes join in, but the scent increasingly darkens. A grassy note appears, which rather reminds me of com...

Crocus Islands
I casually scattered crocus bulbs generously across various spots in my lawn - and my husband raised an eyebrow in doubt. But we both press our noses against the window when the first crocuses finally appear, forming white-lilac-yellow islands. This signifies the long-awaited departure of winter. A delicate floral scen...

The Essence of the Poodle
Since I already got along well with Signature, and the comment from my predecessor piqued my curiosity, I dared to make a blind purchase of Unique - especially since the price is fair, and you don't risk your house and home when buying. The "unique" begins with a somewhat unusual cellophane smell, which indeed has a cr...

The Flame
I enjoy wearing Si EdT and Si Passione intense also has its place in my collection. Is there still a need for Eclat? I think so, because it is sweeter and warmer than the aforementioned fragrances. The centifolia and vanilla provide the sweet direction, and the rose adds elegance. Musk gives it a touch of eroticism, fi...

Housewife's Happiness
I may have my quirks - but the cleaning obsession is unfortunately not one of them. Dust does give some furniture that antique charm, doesn’t it? My husband sees it a bit differently and grabs the cloth with more enthusiasm. He is particularly fond of the windows - a blessing, because I have a fear of heights and get s...

Thought Organizer
Clear Day I have often given as a gift - after all, it is a clear linear-transparent scent that does not overwhelm even inexperienced noses. I always received positive feedback on my gift. But it is by no means trivial. The citrus notes, gently floating on aquatic tones, are as clear as a mountain crystal, providing co...

worth the trip
In the Rossi brochure, I discovered Pour Femme at a sensationally low price. So far, the Aigner fragrances have not disappointed me - especially Private Number is my go-to - and so I set off on the journey to the city. A good friend joins me - which is pleasant, as he has "tasteful" Italian genes. And while sampling at...

Privacy
Recently, my best friend picked me up from home late at night. We wanted to wander around the city a bit and hit up this or that club. Going out with him is a special joy for me because he is not only my friend but also an absolute womanizer. I admit that I enjoy the admiring glances from the ladies when we are out tog...

Greetings from the 80s
Today, the package with Petale Noir arrived. A blind purchase, as the name had piqued my curiosity. Black flowers? I flip through my mental herbarium, but I can't think of any plant that fits. Even the forester's husband is stumped. But now, wearing the fragrance, I know what is meant. The richness of the scent is rath...

Modern Roses
My friend wanted to buy a new wallet and asked for my advisory company. Yes, such a purchase should be well thought out. We headed to the English department store because it has everything from A for ashtrays to Z for decorative vases. I got stuck at P for perfume - while she rummaged through P for wallets. Many unfami...
