Simply Divine

"Simply Divine" is exactly the commanding perfume both the late Diana Vreeland as the flower 'Tuberose' need. Although it is also a modern sleek tuberose it yet starts with enough buttery indecency to honor its name and lend the perfume the regal "indolency" to asphyxiate the bystanders. It brings me back to Poison, Giorgio, Obsession, Red, Knowing, Coco, even older ones like no.5 and Joy. The presence of the perfume is absolute and reminds me, ffw., to Dusita's "Oudh Infini" and especially "Melodie d'Amour". the Diana Vreeland line of perfumes really is breathtaking as well as the impact of the perfumes is concerned as the fabulous tasseled and jewelcoloured fiols it, they, are housed in. The tuberose is a real showstopping presence with its extraordinary blast in the opening (just like Giorgio with its fabulous and lethal neverstopping flower-tuberose assault initially was called "cologne extraordinaire") and lingers around the nostrils reawakening dormant olphactory receptors like an "Indole Reuptake Inhibitor" [IRI's] would do to happify the wearer and probabilistically (or ballistically) abhorr just as much nay-sayers (Trump: no; Melania: yes) the presence of the perfume just as demanding as "Narcisse Noir" and "Tabac Blonde" would have been. It hás flapperist connotations. The other white flowers are there to support their sister. As one can also smell the green notes like the stems and leaves of said' flowers getting more backbone with nutmeg, sandelwood and cashmerewood. this definitely is another winner for both the legendary Diana as her grandson, initiator of the perfumeline, Alexander Vreeland.
