So after confirming that the season is right for Cristalle, today I decided to see if it's wrong for Sushi Imperiale. I had a faint hope that it would work, and that I could happily wear it in the spring.
Sadly, no. Today, it's just a picture of the scent that I love in winter - clearly recognizable, but not the same. Ice, but without the sun and fire.
Now I know, and I'll tuck it away safely until winter.
Review Roundup: Is here.
You are on a Cristalle kick!! ("Cristalle Fever!!")
ReplyDeleteI just smelled SI for the first time the other day-- what a head-scratcher!! I'm interested to read that you connote either hot or cold weather to it. To be honest, I'm not sure what I think...
It may end up being one of those scents that I like a whole lot-- just not on my person. Thanks for the soda connection, though. I can smell that!
Still haven't tried SI yet.
ReplyDeleteThe weather here is much warmer - in the 40's - but there's still snow on the ground, so I'm not quite ready for springy scents yet. And yet my spicefests seem wrong lately. What's right? Climat, which is a green-white floral made warm by civet. Parfum Sacre, any tuberose scent, and Dark Roses.
LCN, if you get a chance try Sushi Imperiale again on the coldest day that you can manage. It loses its glitter when it's warm. I find myself visualizing it in cold weather as a exploding fire-sparklies frolicking above, and admiring their reflections in, a pool of basenotes. In warm weather, the sparklies are down _in_ the basenotes pool, getting soggy.
ReplyDeleteOoh, Mals, Climat sounds lovely. That would have fit in beautifully during my between-seasons nothing's-right period.
