Sweet apple!

First impressions here are very good... Only wearing it for one day but it smells really fruity-fresh-sweet with a green apple oppening note. Its longevity and sillage seems to be average to good but not too loud.

You have to spray a lot. With four sprays you will not achieve anything.

So, spray on, spray on ten, twelve times. Take a deep breath and off you go, wild ride back into the 90s. Close your eyes and you find yourself in the queue of the Technoclub of the Mannheim harbour area. Squeezed in between all those waiting. The synthetic cowhide jacket heats up, the leather smells. The hairspray with which the stars are glued into the hair has a slightly artificial smell. Somewhere in the queue stands someone wearing Joop Homme. Cute. It's probably the long, hydrogen-blonded 2m Viking in neon yellow trousers and platform shoes. Every now and then the smell of the artificial disco fog wafts around me.

Arrived at the bar half an hour later. Bartender yells over the bar, whatever you want. Order Asbach-Cola. As usual in the Technoschuppen, everything in metal. If you smell it, a slight subway shaft smell. Half-warm.

10 Asbach-Cola, a lost consumption card and felt endless discussions with the cashier, later, you find yourself on the way through the night. It was raining slightly. You can smell the wet street in the sweet city air. Next to me the 2m Viking is running! Why? I don't remember. Right beside us at the column there is a Benetton advertisement with a dying AIDS patient. Do I have rubbers? If necessary I will ask the Viking.

It's getting light. The bed I wake up in smells like spring. Fresh, sunny. From the bathroom there are shower noises and a slight aquatic scent. It's probably the Viking. It was nice, but I'd give up breakfast. Let's get dressed quickly. My own T-shirt smells like a club.

It was a great night.
The Authentic night, smells after two hours original like the Heaven of Chopard.
So if any of you spent your youth in the 90s and can remember the Heaven of Chopard, you MUST buy this fragrance!

All those who like to spend a night in a club MUST buy this fragrance.

All those who don't take themselves so seriously and like to dream away half a day, MUST buy this fragrance.

All those who have to be hip and modern, who want to be the center of attention with all their might, FINGER WAY!

All those who want to impress girls and drive an AUDI, FINGER WAY!

Buy recommendation!

Danish pastry in imitation leather backpack

My first comment on a fragrance and then also the first ever comment on this fragrance. Crazy.
What's the point? Because it is one of the few fragrances for which I have not yet read anything and can describe my perception completely unbiased and without influences.
I'm honest, it was a frustrating purchase, I went into town and wanted to have a new fragrance, nothing expensive, something different, maybe something unusual, in the direction of chocolate, marzipan, pastry, a winter scent.
There it was, the fragrance that was to lift my spirits.

The flacon is visually very appealing and makes a good quality impression, only the felt sticker, which is constantly crooked on the flacon, devalues the look. Funny gimmick, the cap is held magnetically. Who doesn't know cardboard boxes with magnetic closure leave a high-quality impression and suggest a high-priced content, whether this played a role in the development? Definitely.

Let's get to the real issue, the scent. First of all, I'm not a professional in this field and I'm only describing my impressions and how I perceive the fragrance here.

What image do I have in my head when I smell this fragrance?
A crushed piece of Danish pastry with vanilla pudding, indefinable fruit and quite a bit of icing, transported in a leatherette backpack by a smoking teenager.

In the top note I take unripe apple - very sour, fresh broken wood fresh lavender, rather subtle, artificial creamy soapy vanilla was. The heart note, actually continues like this, only that an artificial chemical smell spreads, reminds of leather, but not real leatherette rucksack, which once hung next to a real leather rucksack in a department store. The lavender becomes a bit more tangible and the wood develops a smoky, slightly resinous smell What I noticed towards the evening is that the fragrance in the base gets a slightly musty, musty, stale character, which is already disturbing me personally. I suppose it's the leather paired with tobacco, so the colorful imitation leather backpack turns into a crumpled old leather tobacco pouch.

In the first minutes and hours I find the scent quite ok, I didn't have one of those yet and was completely open to it. Of the scents I tried, this was the most interesting one for me. Even if everything seems artificial, I will continue to wear the fragrance, but definitely not on special occasions. I rather arrange the fragrance in the direction of autumn/winter.
If I had to assign the fragrance to a target group, 20 to a maximum of mid-30s, for under 20 I would consider the tobacco and wood in the base to be too mature.
The durability is okay, in itself also always difficult to estimate, but if we talk about the perceptibility on the skin about 4 to 6 hours

Basically, you can buy this fragrance if you don't want to spend a lot of money and you feel like doing something new. If I were to buy this scent again, no. It is a change to my other fragrances, but for me not balanced, round enough.

Not for eternity, but just the right one for THE moment.

It was one of those evenings in October when the air is cool enough for a jacket, but not yet cold enough to let summer go for good.
Leo stood in front of the mirror and ran his hand through his tousled hair. He reached for a bottle that was dark and simple. However, the magnetic cap made it look high-end and more elegant - at least at second glance.
"Authentic Night Man | Abercrombie & Fitch," he mumbled to himself. Somehow that fits today.

One spray, maybe two - but then he pauses.
He smiles a little.
"Oh come on, what the hell" he says and lets the mist dance generously.
After all, he wants to smell good for longer than just as far as the front door, he thinks to himself.

The first notes then hit his nose: fruity, a little sweet, like apple with a hint of cinnamon.
He smells warmth, but not heaviness.

He smiles again.
It reminds him of the freshly baked cookies his grandma used to make for him when he came to visit.
He also thinks of old records playing in the living room and afternoons with too much lemonade and too few worries.

And yet there was also something new, something cool, almost like his father's aftershave, only much younger, more synthetic and somehow smoother.

Leo put on his jacket and stepped out into the night.
The streets were full of lights and voices.
It was quiet in the train, the light flickered briefly above the windows.
Leo stood at the door, his headphones around his neck, his gaze directed outside.

Next to him sat a woman, perhaps in her mid to late thirties, wrapped in a scarf, book on her lap, but no longer reading.
She turned her head slightly, blinked only briefly and inhaled unobtrusively.
Then she lowered her gaze again, as if nothing had happened.
But the corner of her mouth twitched almost imperceptibly, and she nodded barely visibly at the same time. Not directed at him, not prompting... more like a silent: "Yes, yes. That fits!"
Leo hadn't noticed. But perhaps he would have smiled if he had seen it.
He felt good, somehow light.
Not flashy or ostentatious. Just... fitting.
As if the fragrance is not saying: "Hey, here I am!", but rather: "I'll stay with you for a moment."

It was warm in the club, the music vibrated over the speakers through the moving crowd into the floor. The scent was still there, but had become much quieter. Luckily Leo had oversprayed it beforehand, otherwise it would be gone, he thought to himself.
However, because the scent was only whispering and was almost lost in a haze of smoke, perfume and life, Leo reached into his jacket pocket and briefly thought about adding more. But he hadn't put the bottle in his pocket. No matter.
It wasn't about the shelf life. It was about the feeling he had brought with him.

Later, as he walked home - alone and unaccompanied, but satisfied nonetheless - a faint whiff of it still hung in the air. No longer strong, more like a whisper in the lower decibel range that slowly faded away. Hardly audible because of the loud booming of the speakers in the club.

He smiled.
There wasn't much left, but it had been enough for him.
Leo knew this fragrance wouldn't last forever, but it was just right for THE moment.

END.

Insane value for money fragrance

I bought the fragrance for 30 euros and was overwhelmed, it smells just like a 30€ perfume. It's the perfect Christmas and winter fragrance for students, as they usually don't have such a big budget for fragrances. Of course, the fragrance doesn't have the best longevity or the best sillage. But for 30€ it is my top favorite as far as cheap fragrances go. It smells like pure cinnamon to me, and a light vanilla and some leather which doesn't come through so much. It smells like a sweet pastry that you just bought at the Christmas market. So if you are looking for a cheap fragrance that is definitely worth the money, here it is.
