Sporty fragrance with sweet-spicy notes
I have often walked past "Game On" at dm, but I never really dared to grab it and test it, let alone buy it. Generally, I am a person who likes to try new things without prejudice or even buy things blindly. However, with this fragrance, I somehow kept thinking, "This is just marketing. It probably smells cheap, doesn’t last long. This is the cheapest stuff sold under the CR7 banner as 'expensive'." and that without having smelled it myself, read anything about it, or knowing anyone who had done so.
At some point, I received the fragrance as a gift and was somehow forced to deal with it or at least try it out, and what can I say?! My prejudices were largely crushed.
Upon spraying, the fragrance is quite sporty, alcoholic (not overpowering or piercing, but noticeable), synthetically sweet, with slight fruity and spicy notes. At first, it smells like a classic youth perfume, and right after spraying, it strongly reminds me of my very first perfume from about 20 years ago (I think it was called Adidas 3 back then). The alcoholic scent fades relatively quickly and takes some of the fruity notes with it. As time goes on, the fragrance loses some of its sportiness, becoming a bit more refined; one could almost say "elegant": The sweetness loses its synthetic edge, becoming more authentic, natural, and pleasant, while the spicy notes come out a bit more than right after spraying.
In the end, a pleasantly sweet-spicy mix remains, which lasts quite well on skin and clothing for about 6 hours and is a good companion for young people (the fragrance is also suitable for those over 30) if you want to smell good but not necessarily stand out too much. The sillage is initially quite decent but fades relatively quickly, limiting itself to a close range.
"Game On" starts off quite aggressively but then becomes tamer and more subdued. It’s not a bad fragrance, but also not a spectacle that you will be constantly approached about. I like it quite a bit better than "Play It Cool," and in my opinion, you can’t go too wrong here, as the fragrance and longevity are quite good in relation to the price. With its final rather spicy sweetness, the fragrance is ideal for autumn or winter, but it can also be worn well in spring or summer (though not necessarily above 30°C).
