Chapter 518 I Want Both Bottles
After hearing the high praise from the Imperial Concubine, the judges began to evaluate the bottle of perfume. Everyone who had smelled the perfume revealed a look of surprise and admiration.
“Impressive. As expected of a Nine-Star Fragrance Master, the perfume really surprises us every time we open the bottle cap.” “Now I finally understand why the world is so obsessed with the perfume made by YLL. Is this magical smell really something humans can make?”
“It’s not an overstatement to say that this is definitely the best perfume I’ve smelled since I became a professional appraiser. If I could have such a bottle of perfume, I’d rather not eat for
a year.”
The judges expressed their views separately. There were even people who communicated with each other. No one would dislike such perfume.
Glancing at the crowd with a smile, Imperial Concubine Anna eagerly picked up the second bottle of perfume made by Feng Qing. She wanted to know what kind of experience the second bottle of perfume would bring her.
She sprayed the perfume on the perfume test strip, and the fragrance spread out like a ripple. With her as the center, it started to spread out. The judges were shocked. Then, the contestants not far away also smelled a strange fragrance. In the end, even the audience in the last row of the audience area smelled this indescribable fragrance. “Oh my god, how can it be so fragrant? I’ve never smelled anything more fragrant in my life. This is definitely from Heaven.”
“It’s as if I’m in a primitive forest filled with birds and flowers, enjoying the sunlight and rain. I can breathe much more easily. There’s also a very unique and ancient tree fragrance.”
“It’s difficult to imagine that such a beautiful perfume could be handmade. It gives me the feeling that this fragrance is more like the fragrance from the canyon in the west, the coast in the east, the forest in the south, and the lake in the north. What I want to say is that this is simply the most primitive smell of nature.”
Everyone present was enjoying the fragrance as it spread. As they discussed, the way they looked at Feng Qing changed. It was as if from this moment onwards, they really believed that Feng Qing was a Nine-Star Fragrance Master.
A judge asked,, “Contestant Feng Qing, may I ask if you used Ten Thousand Fragrance Wood in your second perfume?”
Without waiting for Feng Qing to speak, Imperial Concubine Anna shook her head and said, “No, this isn’t the smell of Ten Thousand Fragrance Wood. If I’m not wrong, there’s a hint of the Azure wood in it. Only the Azure wood can give people the immersive feeling that they are in the same situation.”
Upon hearing this, many of the judges nodded. Their judgment was about the same as Imperial Concubine Anna’s. Moreover, before the finals began, they had heard that Feng Qing had accidentally obtained a very large piece of Azure wood, which would be considered as a rare treasure, at the International Spices Exhibition.
The fragrance of the Azure wood was everlasting. The fragrance traveled with the wind and floated for thousands of miles without dispersing. Therefore, when Feng Qing made the second bottle of perfume, she definitely used the Azure wood. However, the amount she used was just right. It was not too strong that would make people feel greasy, nor was it too light that it would make people feel dull. Instead, those who had smelled it were stunned by this fragrance. They actually had the feeling that their souls had been cleansed.
The first perfume alternated between the four seasons, showing the charm and spectacularness of the year’s four seasons. The second perfume was called the ‘Secret of Summer’, using summer as the main theme to pursue it to the extreme. What was the smell of summer? All of them would have different feelings after they smelled it. After all, everyone had their own thoughts of summer in their hearts.
After all the judges had finished scoring, Imperial Concubine Anna said domineeringly, “I want both bottles. I’m willing to pay any price. None of you can take them away from me!”
When she said this, her tone was very firm. Towards the perfume produced by YLL, she did not hesitate to use her status to crush others. After all, she liked these two perfumes too much. She would regret for life if she let these two perfumes slip from her hands.
The judges naturally wouldn’t fight with the Imperial Concubine Anna for the perfume, so they began judging the perfume made by the other contestants. However, after smelling all the perfume, they no longer gave them such a high evaluation, nor did they show expressions of enjoyment and admiration. In the eyes of the judges, these perfumes were not worth mentioning compared to the two perfumes made by YLL. After seeing the attitude of the judges, Feng Jianing couldn’t help but be nervous. She clenched her fists tightly, and even her nails pierced through her palms. However, she couldn’t care less about this. She could only look at Charles non-stop. Although the judges had high evaluations of Feng Qing’s perfume, only Charles, the President of the International Fragrance Alliance, had the right to decide who would be the champion.
