Asabi has quite rightly made a name for itself and has a number of smashing perfumes in its range. Their "No. 3" also has its fans. However, this caramel scent does not suit me. Although I'm actually still partial to sweet fragrances, there's something about this one that just doesn't sit right with me. And I've reached my limits... without having to start a rant right away.
"No. 3 Intense" is a caramelized sugar snout before the Lord. Without question, a rather niche and high-quality fragrance experience. And yet sweeter than three fairground visits in a row. Including candy floss and candied apple. But above all caramel. Lots and lots of caramel. Lots and lots of caramel. Too much caramel for me. I only have a greater aversion to marzipan. But even caramel in this overstimulating form doesn't always have a pleasant effect on me. It's exhausting. It's still a long way from vanilla pudding or other cheap comparisons. But I just don't like it (well enough). Luxury can also be off-putting. It's all a question of personal taste, experience and associations. And this Asabi gets on my nerves rather than delighting me. As bitter as that may be. Rather feminine, not too complex. A golden bubblegum. A hairspray hurricane. A love-or-hate glam girl. Material swirl.
Flacon: thick glass, little impact
Sillage: very, very intrusive
Longevity: barely disappears from my skin... 13 hours? Really now?!
Conclusion: a very aggressive and irritating caramel fragrance. Not cardboardy or cheap, but somehow annoying. At a high level. If you like it - I'm happy for you!

Well-disguised everyday oriental hit
I now test my samples that are still "open for review" more or less blindly. Without looking again at the fragrance pyramid, manufacturer or other reviews. And it was worth it with "Camouflage" - because at first sniff I would...

Oh... Ooh... Ooooooooooh!
You probably know the meme where Vince McMahon slides further and further into his chair in rapture. I felt the same way about "Side Effect". What. A. Mega. Perfume! A culmination of delicacies. A sin pool of juicy sensations. A fragrance...
