Aquatic, practical, good
I'm starting to get a bit fed up with how aquatic, synthetic, fresh, blue, shower gel-like fragrances are getting worse and worse here on principle than they actually deserve. I've noticed this trend since I was brand new to Parfumo and it seems to be continuing. On the other hand, gourmands, oud fragrances and the like are often showered with praise and you can often read a certain arrogance in the reviews, as if the latter group were superior in principle and involved a higher, more valuable perfume art. This is not the case. So much for the foreword, now to the fragrance...
Blue Fever is great and I can say with a clear conscience that it is one of the best fragrances in this category that I have ever tasted. Very aquatic and fresh, but without any hint of the fishiness that is often present, nor any association with algae. Aaron has managed to completely avoid everything unpleasant that aquatic fragrances often have, whether intentionally or not (haha, ship). Instead, very subtle fruity and green notes are added, which fit wonderfully into the overall picture and do not cover up the aquatic scent, but rather complement it... or perhaps even complete it. The whole thing seems incredibly rounded and balanced to me, you can just tell that this is not just another Aquat cobbled together according to a tried and tested recipe, but that real thought has been given to how to reinvent and perfect the proven and well-known DNA. Did they succeed? Well, perfect is a word I don't like to use, it can always be better, but this one is really damn good.
Incidentally, there is also a brute H/S typical of ATH, especially for this genre of perfume.
Great perfume art, Aaron simply knows what he is doing and he is gradually becoming my favorite perfumer. Far better than the 7.6 he currently has here. Wonderful.
