Can understatement be exaggerated?
I'm currently looking for light summer scents and have also treated myself to the Bentley Infinite, although I usually avoid "car scents".
It also starts quite fresh, lemony - although I don't notice any candied lemon peel, it is not sweet enough for that (fortunately). Right at the beginning there is also a light soap, maybe lavender with a cedar needle (I see it like SlyFox).
But the top note is quickly gone anyway and then a slightly flowery, fresh and also increasingly spicy scent comes to the fore. At the beginning it is still citric, later on it becomes discreetly woody and earthy. The feeling of freshly showered does not leave me until the end. However, I find this quite pleasant.
Where can you use Infinite? It goes well in the office, corner room or middle room doesn't matter; also in the office corridor, the elevator or the copy room. It is neither negative nor positive, if at all. The silage is unobtrusive, which I consider positive, I don't want to bother colleagues. I also like scents just for me.
Durability is the big shortcoming of Bentley Infinite. On the skin it ends after 4 hours; on textile it lasts a bit longer. So it is miles away from infinite. But you can always refill it at lunchtime.
Bentley Infinite is designed as a perfect gentleman, never intrusive, never plays itself out. He knows what he can do and does not need applause for it. So did he overdo it with the understatement A clear yes and no. He could be a little bit braver, but it is a very nice and fine fragrance.
But I wouldn't use it for really hot summer days, because it goes in too quickly. So I have to look a little further.
Finally, a comment on the Bentley brand. I think there is a reason why the other Bentleys are mostly heavy, woody, sweet, spicy silage hammers (SlyFox). For me this fits well with the (car) brand Bentley which also stands for luxury, strength (in horsepower) and "masculinity". Such a light, airy scent like Infinite doesn't really fit in there. All the more positive that it still exists
