Wow, these two actually don’t sound half bad. I will definitely give them a sniff when I see them, even if I haven’t loved a single one of the Eternities. I’m still far more excited about the gold Euphorias. ^_^
I admit to being excited about none of them
Interested in Calvin Klein Reveal, though…hoping it is better than what they’ve been making lately. Don’t know a darned thing about it but the name though.
They do sound good. The women’s version would probably appeal more to me. I believe the “quetsche” is the damson (Damascene) plum, which is often used in perfumery. I do eat these plums, but have never smelled the flowers.
I also adore elderberries, and see that the flowers are listed as a note. As I write, there are elderflowers in a ziplock bag in my freezer, waiting to be made, one of these days, into elderflower pancakes. I was almost too late in gathering them!
Yes, damson plum.
Have never eaten elderflowers! They’re usually made into liqueur, right?
You can make a soft fermented drink from them and they smell and taste wonderful!
Yes, there are elderberry wines and cordials and stronger spirits and syrups. IKEA usually has some very nice elderberry (non-alcoholic) drinks, or at least they used to, here in Holland. Hmmm. I’m unfamiliar with the fermented drink but it sounds delicious!
I had learned to make the pancakes many years ago, following a German recipe from one of my former in-laws. Now I’ve learned the Dutch make them as well. You make a batter and dip a whole umbel (bunch of flower heads on one stalk) into it until it’s thoroughly coated and then fry it. Delicious! I have turned too many friends onto this and am always careful to tell them to be sure to leave enough on the trees to develop into berries for the birds, etc. You can google for recipes. Be sure to know how to identify it. You don’t want to take anything poisonous by accident!
Just to add: raw elderberries are highly toxic!
Fun, thanks!!
I love elderflower as a flavor. St. Germain liqueur is delicious, if a bit pricey.
As a Monty Python fan, I would have put the elderberries in the “for Men” version
I forgot about Monty Python. I was just thinking of Aunt Abby and Aunt Martha and their arsenic-laced elderberry wine.
Ha!
They have REALLY photoshopped those faces, particularly Ed Burns’. I would never have recognized him.
The two Obsession Night scents were not at all nighttime, nothing dark or mysterious about them at all. I wonder how these two will fare.
