10/10 rightly and on principle

Wanted to write the review for a long time, but didn't in the end.

Given the current hype around LNDH Bleu Electrique but it must be.

There are so many weird takes around DH 2020.The opening smells like toilet stone, the scent smells like citrus floor cleaner, comparisons to Bleu de Chanel.

And of course noses and olfactory perceptions are different but for my nose the best thing about DH 2020 is the clear distinction from old familiar Blue Fragrances and Aquatics.

Also, I don't perceive it sharp, overly citric, clinical or anything like that. In the opening resins and woods are completely obvious, after ner half hour until the end, the thing is neatly musky.

The opening is divine, amazingly natural/unchemical for me by designer standards, the bergamot note is a dream. If the DH 2020 is supposed to smell synthetic I have no idea how to describe the mainstream designer blue openings of the lethten decade, Sauvage included.

Performance is difficult for me to judge by my fast Noseblindness bzgl. iso-E-Super for me, however, it is quite a fragrance with which I go as 2-3 spray people quite times on 7-8.

And the whole thing here comes not from someone who so far Beckham For Man and Guido Maria Kretschmer's fragrances. I find Dior Homme 2020 completely satisfying even alongside scents like Coromandel, Tonka Imperiale, Musk Therapy and Ambre Nuit and far from guilty pleasure.

If anything, I would go further and say that the fragrance is enough for the Maison Christian Dior range and would probably be somewhere well above 8.0 if it had a different name and cost just under four times as much.

Dior Homme 2020 is by the deviation of Dior Homme Original for many simply not neutrally assessable and the rest are many perfumos who join the hate-circlejerk. If you dig through the statements and look for perfumos who can classify the fragrance halfway capable, then a considerably more positive picture emerges than possibly suspected. The same goes for Fragrantica. Bleu Electrique, on the other hand, is the same thing, only the other way around. An old, nostalgic water basically unchanged (except for wording owed to the market and right) but with stronger performance thrown on the market and the community dances in the streets.

A similar fate is mMn befalling H24 right now, albeit for a slightly different reason. I suspect H24 and DH 2020 as the first outgrowths of a move towards green notes, away from Ambrox->Tonka and the like. The new Burberry, JPG, CK and Abercrombie Pillar seem to confirm that.

In conclusion, I'm curious how DH 2020, H24 and consorts will be received in five years, I suspect a good bit better than this year
