Yes I Was Madly In Love, But That Was Yesterday
Fragrance notes
Character
The first spray is a shock of raspberry, tart and almost cloying, as if someone pressed a handful of sticky berries into your palm and dared you to hold on. That fruity burst is the briefest flirtation, because within minutes the white tobacco rolls in, dry and floral, softened by a smoky haze. The leather base takes its time, a supple, animalic hide that feels worn and a little bruised. The overall character is a velvet glove with a razor inside, a once-ripe raspberry crushed into a leather jacket pocket and left hanging in a dusty closet. It is heavy, sweet in a dark way, and unmistakably niche, though the synthetic edges in the dry down betray a slight lack of polish.
The numbers tell the truth: longevity is respectable but not a marathon, and sillage stays close after the first hour. This is a fall and winter creature, best for a candlelit dinner or an evening walk in damp leaves, not a bright office or a summer afternoon. It suits someone who wants their sweetness complicated by smoke and hide, a person who enjoys the tension between fruit and leather. Skip it if you crave airy florals or crisp aquatics, because this fragrance never asks for forgiveness, it simply waits for you to catch up.
