Rose morning light
Lutetia - Lutèce - Paris: the city on the Seine is named after all of these things.
Caesar already conquered Lutetia - Asterix readers will remember that our Gallic friends marched to the rescue of the city in one volume.
"Lutèce", the City of Light, gave its name to a Dana brand fragrance and I also remember that Yves St. Laurent launched a fragrance of the same name (in a slender purple glass bottle and named after this City of Light). I wonder what happened to it?
Or did it quietly and secretly become "Paris", a companion that is still very popular today?
The "City of Light": we find it again in Chanel's "Paris - Paris", a fragrance from the "Les Eaux de Chanel" series, which I had the pleasure of testing.
Thank you once again for the generous bottling.
It is written: "Paris - Paris" is the city of light at sunrise, when the nightly shadows retreat, the first café au lait, the first, still warm, butter-scented croissant at the small table in front of the bistro on the corner.
(after a quote from the house of Chanel.)
"Paris - Paris", these are awakening roses, kissed by Aurora, not yet unfolding their full fragrance intensity in the freshness of the morning.
Is this why "Paris - Paris" is a rose fragrance that is initially perceived as rather cool?
Or are the bizzling aromas of pink pepper and the effervescence of summery ripe citrus fruits cooling here?
It is somewhat reminiscent of citrus-scented rose champagne in the morning - pourquoi pas?
In any case, "Paris - Paris" is a sparkling rose fragrance that prepares you for the magic of a richly scented day with a lively charm all its own.
It also warms up, becomes rounder, and when patchouli with its golden-brown earthy shimmer finally enters the stage, a richly scented rose light lies over everything: enveloping and enchanting!
You don't have to be a proven lover of this city or this brand; a love of rose fragrances in all their diversity is completely sufficient here, or it may even develop as you get to know this composition better.
In keeping with the name of the "Les Eaux des Chanel" series, this creation by Olivier Polge does not have the exceptional longevity of the usual rose fragrances, but is extremely rich and long-lasting for a "scented water".
This allows the roses to fully blossom on the skin over time and envelop it with the casual elegance that once characterized Mademoiselle Coco Chanel's dresses.
"Paris - Paris": full of Parisian charm and lightness, gracefully translated into fragrance.
"Paris awakens ..." is the German text of a well-known French chanson.
Now we too can experience the magic of this moment, awakened by the morning goddess Aurora and captured by Chanel in the flacon
Even more: "Paris - Paris" accompanies us gracefully through the day, the fresh baguette under our arm, surrounded by the rose breath and shimmering light of this city.
