About this deal

Vetiver is there rather a different caliber, which I often meet with skepticism. What attracts me to it but again and again, is this green, citrus freshness, which it often brings and the woody something. In the case of Portrait des Dukes, subtly woody, lemongrass-like notes rise from the base very soon, which I would most likely attribute to vetiver. And so beautiful my nose has never experienced them before. Beatrice and Will are both well-developed protagonists, and they have a great love story. They have strong chemistry right from the start, their banter is fantastic, and I love the way they challenge each other. However, both are hesitant to commit to another, though for very different reasons. She fears losing her autonomy, and he fears losing someone he cares deeply for. I like how they both explore their misgivings and fears as they fall deeper for each other. They are definitely a well-matched pair that brings out the best in each other!

Will doesn’t believe in love and is literally horrified of the concept—like fleeing ballrooms, falling off horses, blaming indigestion type of scared. Beatrice is similarly horrified, but of marriage, since she doesn’t believe love like her parents’ exists anymore and that’s all she will accept in a match. But as soon as they lay eyes on each other across a ballroom, they’re both absolutely gone. I believe this is Regency though I couldn’t find a date. The heroine mentions the comfort of the clothing and compares to older style clothing that sounds like earlier Georgian period.When I next morning still the remains of the Duke on the arm next to me erschnuppere, I become beinah weak and seriously consider to move the departure until the perfumery opens and I can still acquire him. Or at least test it again. At home in the province, these bottles are rather not to be found ... so, should mean ... not at all.

This takes on toxic masculinity and the nuances of how women are and were treated as less than- and it's quite explicit that this is the project of the book. So if you don't like activism in your romance, this might not be for you, but I found it to be delightful. In general, I perceive no great development in the fragrance. (Which is very right for me, because I do not want to give any of its shares so really) After the more intense and spicy-fresh prelude, it becomes a bit more subdued. From the start, there's something comfortingly warm about it, which perhaps increases a bit as it progresses, while a green, citrusy freshness lingers until the end. If you want, you can associate quite a bit into it, which probably fits the whole gin idea. (I'm more of a whiskey guy, and there's a lot you can associate into it, after all!) At times I think kitchen spices - coriander? Herbs de Provence? - sometimes I think warm-moist spring leaves, sometimes maybe actually pepper, sometimes almost fruity - and at the core: juniper. --schmacht--

For his part, William suffers from depressive tendencies, and I found this to be very relatable and it was admirable that he admitted this weakness fairly readily, at least to himself. Beatrice didn’t seem too concerned about William or his feelings and actually did her best to alienate him for a while, despite the fact that he was the one man who agreed with her and might be able to help her cause. Even as he was telling her he agreed with her, she was still coming after him. Because he was a man, she refused to listen to anything he had to say. This wasn’t helped by the fact that William feels connected to Beatrice (though for the life of me I can’t see why), and this makes him terrified because she makes him feel. These two may have agreed on a great many things, but Beatrice wouldn’t concede that they had anything in common or give him any credit, so I was just puzzled about the connection that was supposedly growing between them. Beatrice spends a great deal of time bemoaning William’s arrogance, but I found her to be much more arrogant than he was, perhaps made even worse by the fact that she thinks she knows everything but it’s very clear that she’s incredibly naïve and has a lot to learn. Much Ado About Dukes is the second book in Eva Devon’s Never a Wallflower series and is a historical romance.
