Don't know what to say
This fragrance was purchased on a trip to Spain from a supermarket (it was 50% reduced) . And for 8 Euro for a gift set I was going to buy this.

Not a bad fragrance I smell the apple in the beginning, not lasting on me very much, for that money the gift set was great.

Not sure I can recommend this if the price is more than 10 Euro, is better to test it to see if you like the notes and if they have a good longevity on you.

best affordable non-clone for summer
First of all, probably the best affordable gym scent/summer fragrance that is not a clone. And for me, the best from the mixed Antonio Banderas line, a hidden gem. The price-performance ratio is unbeatable, performance and quality for a freshie in this price range are good. It could easily cost 60 € and be marketed under a designer brand.

Now to the scent:
Opening with a sharp, citrusy freshness, dominated by green apple. Later, the lavender joins the mix, but quietly takes a seat in the back. A not too strong sweetness and a bit of woodiness also come into play, but it remains rather fruity and green. All in all, nothing new or groundbreaking, but an uncomplicated summer fragrance that stands out from the cheap standard and doesn’t need to hide from anyone. Everything feels well-balanced and quite smooth. It fits the description of a gym scent and compliment-getter quite well. But a white T-shirt and a beer also go perfectly. What stands out about this fragrance is its versatility, whether for sports, a date, work, in a fancy car, or at the job center. The Banderas works everywhere and reminds one of a sports car, perfect for someone looking for an affordable all-rounder for summer, a nice 'casual'. The direction is slightly 'Legend (Eau de Parfum) | Montblanc', although they do differ. And although I would rather say summer fragrance, it also fits well in spring or warmer autumn. It’s a scent like 'Voyage (Eau de Toilette) | Nautica', which you can easily add to your cart during your next online shopping for just a few euros, and you really can’t go wrong. The perfect affordable no-brainer between Xerjoff and Roja that you can just take to the lake or the swimming pool, but it’s not one that draws all the attention in the room. In South America, it’s at least somewhat known, in Europe it completely flies under the radar. I believe the male world here doesn’t find it so great when their perfume is named after, for example, David Beckham or Enrique Iglesias or Til Schweiger, which I also find off-putting. What adult man wants to wear the new Cristiano Ronaldo? Long story short: I know it’s strange to get the new 'Lionel Messi' or Jerome Boateng fragrance, but you should definitely add the Power of Seduction to your cart if you’re looking for an affordable no-brainer for the meantime or trying to reach the minimum order value.

Amazing cheapie, they say it's very similar to Fierce which is ultra popular in USA, and I can see why because this smells awesome and sexy.

The scent smells like a mix of Nautica Voyage/Fierce/Sauvage
Longevity and sillage are very good for the price.
Top fragrance!!!

A recommendation for anyone who appreciates Fierce & Sauvage. It won't break the bank and has great projection.

Very pleasant, fresh-fruity scent. You can definitely smell the apple. Longevity is great, still on clothes even the next day.

For me, there are also clear similarities to Fierce/Legend and a bit of Sauvage due to the Ambroxan. I was surprised by the quality and sillage.
