Come ye neroli
"Green Neroli" by Creed swings with me between partly/shortly brilliant and a (then much more pronounced) "Fuck You" part to every buyer, to a mixture of "Geranium Pour Homme" and "4711" - with a disappointingly manageable retention period.
Today at the Parfumotreffen in Cologne, my test day developed very quickly very nerolilastig - while it was (fortunately) weather-wise sunny and beautiful, but really hot and summer now also not. Nevertheless, I had apparently subliminally a lot of desire for this tingling-yellow, refreshing substance. "Green Neroli" definitely lives up to its name and expectation then, combining a bubblegum to toothpaste-like mint with the sometimes stale citrus catalyst. A bit herbaceous, rather masculine, very green, a bit mossy, a bit tangy, easy to wear & to like. Airy and transparent enough. High quality too. So far, so good, according to Creed. But then "Green Neroli" loses all colour, all character, all radiance and strength, all form, so quickly on my skin that the fragrance as a whole leaves me very hanging and is not worth a recommendation. And for over 200€ doubly not.
Flacon: the green suits him well
Sillage: barely noticeable. For no one.
Durability: 2-3 hours are at the price a medium-sized cheek.
Conclusion: the time he is there, "Green Neroli" is fine, minty, Creeds 4711, a Oma fragrance of the future - but then he is also already pale and then gone before even a hint of enthusiasm can arise..
