Sweet Aromatic Aquatic Summer Fragrance
Diesel fragrances are usually recognized immediately. They also don't have the best reputation.
The fist-shaped bottles and their target audience have certainly contributed to this. It's no coincidence that we say "to diesel" someone.
This fragrance is the Summer Edition 2010 of the original Diesel Fuel for Life. A summer scent that you won't find much about on the internet.
However, Diesel took a different approach with this flanker and created a completely independent fragrance, separate from the original Fuel for Life. Not just a lighter variation of the original like the Summer Edition 2009. This makes this fragrance unique in the entire line.
I don't particularly like the original with the raspberry at its center, too piercing, strikingly sweet synthetic. I once had the jeans version.
So how is this Summer Edition 2010:
It starts with sweetly aromatic anise mixed with slight licorice nuances and vervain. I can faintly detect some fruity grapefruit. The sweet and delicious anise accompanies clearly into the heart note and resonates throughout the entire fragrance journey. It impresses with its aromatic character.
The heart note consists of fresh, soapy lavender paired with "frozen" aquatic notes. Yes, the aquatic aspect also comes into play here along with the anise.
It works quite well together in the nose, also with the color of the bottle. Woody spicy notes with vetiver join in the base.
The fragrance is quite linear but has its own, unmistakable Diesel summer DNA. I like it. It floats lightly around you and doesn't weigh you down with the right dosage. It creates a good summer mood.
Of course, it has a synthetic sweet Diesel DNA that not everyone will enjoy. A saying stuck with me: "It's a fragrance that you like and enjoy smelling on others, but would never buy for yourself." Whether this applies here is something everyone must decide for themselves. I got it among other reasons because it is now very rare and hard to find. It had been circling in my mind for a while with its striking color.
Alongside Fuel for Life Spirit (also a completely independent fragrance), this Diesel flanker has now joined my collection.
The prices, when you can find one, are usually between 100-150 euros for 75ml, whereas it cost around 60 euros back then.
