Krigler Lieber Moment 214 ~ fragrance review

Krigler Lieber Moment 214

Nothing sells a perfume (at every price point, for nearly any demographic) like the promise of romance, right? The prestige brand Krigler, which emphasizes its five generations of luxury perfumery, recently released Lieber Moment 214, a “moment of love” designed to complement Lieber Gustav 14, “an early Krigler fragrance inspired by a love letter from WWI.”

I tried Lieber Gustav 14 a long time ago, and I liked it. It reminded me of Caron Pour Un Homme, since it’s a masculine lavender-vanilla-musk blend that can also worn by a woman with certain tastes. Lieber Moment 214 is described as “smoother and more powdery” than Lieber Gustav 14, and its composition includes notes of grapefruit, aldehydes, lavender, violet, rose, ylang ylang, white musk, vanilla and patchouli.

Although Lieber Moment, like Lieber Gustav, is “created to suit both men and women,” I find it intensely feminine and I can’t imagine it finding a male audience…

Krigler English Promenade 19 and Chateau Krigler 12 ~ perfume reviews

Posted by Jessica on 7 October 2011 26 Comments

Audrey HepburnKrigler Promenade 19

Since the recent relaunch of its fragrance line, Krigler has positioned itself as a multi-generational, historic perfume house, with connections to both the Roaring Twenties and the golden age of Hollywood. It’s a good bet that quite a few serious perfume shoppers are drawn to one of these eras or the other, and while they have no interest in the latest fragrance licensed by a contemporary pop singer or reality-television personality, they may be curious about the perfumes worn by classic screen stars.

English Promenade 19, originally released in 1919, includes notes of orange blossom, fresh grapefruit, sweet white musk, oriental neroli and ylang-ylang. It was inspired by the French Riviera, where Krigler was based in the 1910s and 1920s — more specifically, it seems to refer to the Promenade des Anglais, a walkway along the Mediterranean in Nice. According to Krigler, English Promenade was purchased and worn by Audrey Hepburn while she was filming “Roman Holiday” in Rome with Gregory Peck.

I don’t know how faithful English Promenade 19 is to the formulation of 1919 or the early 1950s, when Audrey would have been wearing it, but it’s not quite what I expected…
