Lovely Grapefruit
Being a flanker of the iconic Addict, there is much to live up to. I claim that Addict 2 does the job really well. I met this one before the original, and that may have been a good thing, because I was not expecting anything and I was not prejudiced in any way.
Addict 2 starts out fresh, the grapefruit doing everything it can to add some bitterness, which I find great. With the bergamot and orange it drags you in and keeps you there for a long time, considering that citric notes are often brief. Pineapple and pomegranate make sure, that the citric feeling continues into the heart, a bit sweeter, though. I personally never notice the base. No sandalwood, cedar or musk for me.
Living in the same bottle as Addict, I can only repeat, that this bottle is really beautiful. The freshness of the scent is mirrored in the pink glass with the silver top.
