Cousin of Guerlain's My Insolence
This is a luscious fruity oriental bordering on the gourmand side. The top notes are filled with gorgeous red berries and thick black currant essence. The heart and dry down is the most oriental phase. I smell well-blended flowers, cedar, powdery sandalwood, and vanilla all brightened by a zesty note of raspberry. It almost feels like I’m eating an exotic warm dish with a delicious scoop of raspberry sauce on top! I see this as a great summer time fragrance as well as a cozy and yet fun pick-me up fume for colder days. The dry down is SO reminiscent of Black XS! For lovers of Black XS, you could wear B United in warmer weather and rock the other one out at night! For lovers of berry/vanilla combos, at this low price, you owe it to yourself to try this one out!

Ps: B United was created by one of my favorite noses, Christophe Raynaud, who also created the legendary powdery/berry fragrance "MY INSOLENCE" for Guerlain! You can definitely sense his signature silky style in this composition as well.

Not really my thing... but nice top note
I received a sample from B.United as a gift from a nice perfumer.

At the first spray, I quite like it. It smells fresh and zesty. Since I don’t drink alcohol, I had to Google what a Caipirinha actually is. Ah, a cocktail with lime juice. Yes, it could indeed smell somewhat similar to the top note of B.United.

Unfortunately, it doesn't stay pleasant. After about 20 minutes, I smell a typical drugstore floral mishmash. The only notes I can distinctly pick out are peony and especially raspberry. It has hardly any sillage, but is still quite penetrating because it is way too sweet. It’s always the same with raspberry in cheap fragrances. I really complain about this every time.
This raspberry unfortunately remains present until the end. Over time, it becomes a bit powdery. But with the stinky raspberry and something sour in the background (or is that due to the age of the fragrance?), the scent really gets on my nerves.

As mentioned, the sillage is not outstanding, but the fragrance lasts quite a while. Reapplying probably won’t be necessary. I find it difficult to categorize this. If someone likes the fragrance, they can wear B.United all year round, whenever they want. But it is definitely more suitable for women.

"Trostpflaster"
Even though the bottle looks unattractive and bulky, you can probably only buy this fragrance online now, and the sillage and longevity are subpar...
This scent is a comfort for all those who (like me) still miss "Gloria"... In the top notes, they might seem quite different, but in the heart notes, they could already be mother and sister. The Benetton lacks the opulence and strength; it feels more like the deodorant version of the Cacharel masterpiece... Reapplying is a must here. But for about €15 for 100ml of EdT, you can overlook that...
A very nice warm scent. Woody, powdery, ambered with a subtle sweetness...

A delicious, fruity-floral summer scent with creamy vanilla and a refreshing citrus caipirinha note.
