Reflection - mirror image
I've worn this fragrance so many times, but I've never written a review about it. Why is that? For me, it's now the fragrance I reach for when I'm short on time, when I'm struggling to choose a fragrance or when I want to wear something "simple" without attracting negative attention. A fragrance that used to be so special to me has become normal for me over time.
When I fell in love with perfume as a hobby and tested the first sample of Reflection Man, I knew immediately: I want it! Almost like a holy grail for me at the time. I told everyone that I hoped I could buy a bottle. And a few months later, I did. A beautiful fragrance that I described at the time as a "white, luminous flower". A pure feel-good fragrance - clean and well-groomed, exactly how I wanted to feel.
Lately, I've often complained that many fragrances seem too smooth, too perfect and characterless. And yet: why did I like this "clean man" fragrance so much? Perhaps because sometimes that's exactly what I like - a simple but sophisticated, smooth fragrance. It offers a nice contrast to my smoky or edgy fragrances.
Reflection Man is probably the fragrance I wear most often in my collection. It seems simple but is pleasant and sophisticated and if you look closely, you can see that there are more notes to the fragrance than you would expect. It is precisely this mixture of simplicity and elegance that makes it so special. That's why it deserves my rating - I simply love it.
The fragrance is clear, soft and rounded. A light spiciness from the pepper and rosemary, sweetness from the bitter orange leaf. The floral notes that make it what it is radiate from the heart, while sandalwood provides a soft, woody rounding. Vetiver, cedar and patchouli lend it some herbaceous and slightly soapy notes. Everything is perfectly balanced - nothing disturbs. Reflection Man is soft, clean, noble, pure and white with a certain cool but also warm aura for me.
Reflection Man made me think about my relationship with this fragrance. It's pure and innocent - definitely not a reflection of the person wearing it. But perhaps an expression of how we would like to be, how we want to be perceived and maybe that's why it has so many followers?
