The Charismatic Freshness
Yes, it is fresh, but no, it does not come across as cheap and boringly aquatic, like many of the summer variants of countless designer fragrances. I expected a completely different scent here when I read the comments, but I was pleasantly surprised. I also received the sample from LosPepes, another shout-out and thanks to him!
What did I expect?! According to the fragrance pyramid, I anticipated a somewhat woody scent, with sandalwood providing a nice creamy base. But none of that really materialized. The bottle is beautifully blue, it creates a false impression, yet fundamentally it is a successful bottle, indeed elegant.
The scent is truly wonderful. It starts off incredibly fruity, with yuzu; I don’t really know what yuzu smells like, but I can definitely imagine how it smells, the opening definitely smells like yuzu to me. The musk in the base gives it that charismatic, that elegant touch. The sandalwood nicely rounds it off. I really can’t say much about the development of the scent, as I don’t really pick out many notes. However, I can describe how it affects me; it is truly a very fresh scent, but not in the CK Summer way, rather it is more elegant, one that you might wear in the evening for a nice gathering or dine in a lovely restaurant. It has something that is truly charismatic, a certain calm freshness.
The longevity is, as Los Pepes described, really excellent, so top-notch at around 9 hours. The season is situated in spring and summer, but I can also imagine it very well in other seasons.
My conclusion. For this unbeatable price...one of the best in the category. It has a hell of a lot of class, lasts super long, and is so versatile! You can only love it; I have already received many compliments, as it is not quiet, its projection is louder than many other fresh scents.

er ist super vom duft und vom preis her,...nur blöd, dass er nicht mehr produziert wird! er erinnert mich ein wenig an allure homme sport! und das ist nicht negativ gemeint, ganz im gegenteil! :D er reit sich somit in die sammlung ein! 8/10 Punkte
