Review of Scherrer 2 Eau de Toilette by aad de gids

yesterday evening, stepping into bed, I deliberately blind tested this perfume, bought last week together with 'Jean Louis Scherrer', and this thus called 'Jean Louis Scherrer 2'. I lay with my pulse to my nose, sensing without any glance on the notes, what I smelled, right or wrong. to my utter surprise I have smelled a lot of Notes right. of course at first the Rose comes to me. I don't know if that is a unrational thought/ feeling, but I sense it and smell it. then I lay thinking, but it is more dreaming in a phantomous garden, what it was that passed me by. in comparison with JLS, which is obviously a Chypre, this came to me immediately as an Oriental Flowery Amber perfume. then (I guessed) I smelled the Jasmine, Lily, Tuberose but more subdued than above is sketched. Lily of the Valley, Heliotrope, White Musk. that is a riddle now. am I now suddenly capable of smelling synthetic musks and Aldehydes? I suppose what I smell is the Vacuoid around which each 'Natural' ingredient float, dances, whirl, appear and the solidity the perfume gets from these Invisibles. these are things I can smell. when people talk about 'Musky, White Laundry, just washed Linens, Cleaning Products', then I can fullheartedly say I do not smell that. but somehow there is a greater sensibility towards Aldehydes and I suppose, Synthetic Musks. then yesterday evening I smelled ... Pineapple. that was my biggest Trophy this morning. but we can honestly globally state that I can not smell Fruits in perfume, except Peach, Apricot, Plum and apparently now and then, Pineapple. yet I also had a hint of Anise. I smelled the sandelwood and of course Amber. the whole Profile is much more that of a '1980s expensive Hooker Perfume' than yesterday the Chypre was. but that also was a great Joy ! when you finally see 'the chart' with Notes, and know a little more about the synthetics, reformulations, the 'families' of olphactive categories then you have the tools to enjoy your new perfume more thoroughly. it is not so much theoretically but with me ALL IS EMOTIONAL. what a hell of a perfume.
