Why is this so refreshing?
I had no expectations. This was a throw-away add to my ATH order, a novelty fragrance that I wasn’t going to take seriously but I hoped might be fun. A rumor it was similar to Oud Wood was certainly enticing. It’s not, btw, although I could see where someone might get hints.
Instead, at least off my skin, it’s bizarrely refreshing. I get the mint, a citrus blend and the marine notes right off the top, and they’re sharp. About those marine notes: do you know that humid smell you get when you approach an indoor pool just prior to the chlorine hitting? Like in a fancy hotel? It’s exactly like that.
Later on as it dries it does get warm and spicer but it remains clean. Spring is right around the corner and this is scratching an itch I didn’t know I had, a spicy yet uplifting fresh fragrance.
The Fake series is Aaron’s play on using synthetic Oud aroma chemicals and this does nothing to hide its synthetic character. It absolutely shouldn’t work. So it’s very likely I’m its only fan, but so far this is my second favorite from ATH.
