Apple junk

I don't like Decleor "L'Original" at all. And is a much weaker scent than the "Un Air de Java" of the almost forgotten company, which I tested a few weeks ago and which was more than solid. This one? Most of it doesn't work at all...

"L'Original" feels like the grab-and-stick floor of current designer fragrances. Ok, already released in 2000, then apparently forgotten quickly - so was it ahead of its time after all? A fresh, fruity shower fragrance for young men, followers and pumper? Maybe. But it doesn't change the miserable impression it makes. Some Axe-Deos smell better without a joke. That's too bad. A green, characterless, almost soulless apple meets frothy, sloppy chemical undertones. Pungent and aggressive. Creed DNA copy gone wrong could be a bitter pill to swallow. Not only not mine, but just not good. Who wants to smell like this?! No wonder nobody remembers that smell. Sorry to the three lonely owners on the right, one of them was even so kind and equipped me with a bottling of this creation. I hope I don't offend anybody - at least I never want to let him get too close to my nose again...

Flacon: interchangeable like the fragrance
Sillage: slightly prickly, nothing breaking
Shelf life: after 5 hours it diluted... fortunately?!

Conclusion: an unpleasant green, pungent, lame apple freshness kick that you would rather expect from Playboy or lowest celebrity scents. Useless to me... Skip it!
