In the best sense something different
Well, then I will probably be the first to write a review here. Not so inappropriate, after all, this is on the one hand also my first own review and 701 on the other hand one of the first fragrances that introduced me to the world of "somehow different" fragrances.
If, like me, you're more used to the fresh, aquatic scents of mainstream designers, 701 can come as quite a surprise. When I first tested the travelspray version, the scent honestly pissed me off. Too sour, too different, organic waste in high summer. The sweet bottle then disappeared for quite a while in the back row of my still quite manageable fragrance collection. Maybe it was because I first tested the scent in the fall and it's slowly starting to bloom in the meantime, but suddenly I liked it when I sniffed it again recently. Probably, however, it was because I have "tasted" in the meantime some quite different perfume samples and my nose has possibly come to terms with not always smell only Bleu de Chanel.
So what does 701 smell like? Of the notes, my unskilled nose can not yet smell out much, but what stands out is the tangy acidity, which is quite idiosyncratic and reminds me not so much of grapefruit or bergamot , but of eucalyptus medicine - in a good, interesting, because "somehow different" way. For such a tangy fresh, the scent also lasts surprisingly long, after maybe five hours it fades away. Until then, however, it pleases with summery acidity, without being intrusive and may be considered for me as the beginning of a journey that will hopefully reveal many more fragrance treasures to me.
