Reviews about Les Nereides Patchouli Antique
Autumnal, warm, and very interesting fragrance that warms and takes me back to childhood memories that I miss.
First association: my grandmother's house. A room with a coveted wardrobe where retro things were kept, things that fascinated me throughout my childhood. Books with yellowed pages that emitted a special aroma when flipped through, as if they had been lying in the damp ground during rainy weather. A warm stove in the kitchen, wooden icons on the wall with traces of time, a photo album with marks of moisture and dampness...
Unfortunately, this "basement-like" feeling disappears after an hour. It's a bit sad for me because the fragrance gradually transforms and takes on a bohemian tone with vanilla-amber and powdery notes. It has a niche sound with a good trail, free from cheap undertones.
Moving away from pleasant childhood memories, I would like to note that the fragrance is dry and pungent. The color of the liquid harmoniously corresponds to its character. I have a 30ml bottle in a cognac color. I have been chasing this particular series for a long time. If I had known that the 100ml bottle would be of this color, I would have ordered it immediately. There is also a series with a light-yellow liquid (as shown in the picture), but the scent there is completely different. I had that version and it had more chocolate-like notes instead of earthy ones.
For me, it is true love. I can't even imagine how it was possible to create a fragrance with such transformation.
As always, Makeup is at its best. Thank you!
Lovely patchouli enveloped in benzoin and frankincense, like an old library bathed in sunlight, surrounded by a timeless dense forest. Dear Make Up, bring us 100 ml of this, we absolutely need it! )
