Right off the bat: Sunscreen smells exactly like sunscreen, and those who don't like that will be quickly disappointed. Initially, it evokes freshly lotioned shoulders at the beach, but it shifts slightly into a waxy coolness - like a T-shirt after swimming, drying in the sun. It's not a natural beach scent, but rather a concept about summer: clean, unisex, and slightly ironic. The dry side is later taken over by musk and cedarwood, which grounds the composition and tames the sweetness.
The result is ambivalent - and that's precisely where the allure lies: For fans of this genre, it’s a very successful, creamy representative, as it balances the typical notes of coconut, heliotrope, and musk cleanly and feels less sticky than other tropical bombs.
Projection and longevity are rather light to moderate - the scent is initially present but settles relatively quickly. However, this makes Sunscreen practical for hot days, as it doesn’t overwhelm.
