Unfortunately, a fragrance that doesn't get much attention, but is definitely worth buying!
It's a pity that there don't seem to be many fragrance fans who own or know this little wash!
For me, this beautiful cologne has a place next to L´Air du Temps or Caron’s Bellogia, as Island Bouquet also belongs to this kind of nostalgic-classic perfumes.
It fits into this group, namely the perfumes of past times, from the older generation of aldehyde scents/colognes that are partly soapy-spicy-floral and have a quite strong aldehyde note.
However, the soapy note (aldehyde) here is softer, quite pleasant.
Island Bouquet is by no means "old-fashioned," just like the above-mentioned perfume classics are not.
This scent is a rather soft cologne, which at first is quite soapy-spicy due to the clove blossoms that can be perceived very intensely and clearly.
Island Bouquet receives more spicy accords from smoky sandalwood, which in combination with ylang-ylang develops a slightly sweet-floral scent at the base note!
All aromas unite within 5 minutes, and thus there is no special scent development, except for the increase in intensity of the sandalwood in the later stages.
I perceive Island Bouquet as a typical English eau de toilette, as it is elegant, with a classic-conservative spirit.
It is typical for many English perfumes, and I find that appealing.
For me, this elixir is primarily a women's fragrance, as it has a soft, tender aura due to the floral scent notes.
Nevertheless, this classic certainly suits some men as well.
Today, genders often mix their fragrances, regardless of whether they are for men or women.
What's important is that a scent is pleasing!
A downside is that I can no longer find it in the Intet and don't know if it has been discontinued! Manufaktum still had it until recently.
The longevity is very good at 6-8 hours.
I would also classify the sillage as moderate to strong!
The price-performance ratio is top!
Definitely worth a test!
