He has a bright red rubber boat

... warbles Antonia from Tyrol.

And with this rubber boat we go out ...
Into meaningless nothingness. Into the hole in the ozone layer. Or maybe somewhere completely different, where nobody will see or smell us.

Well, what can I say here?
The first contact actually reminds me of semi-hard rubber plastic, which is just living out its existence in the sun.
Very artificially underpinned by an immense plastic cardboard note. Bianchi probably had a bright red rubber boat running in the background when she finished the composition. The fragrance is almost obsessively coated with a lukewarm freshness and it all seems very artificial. I also catch a hint of flowers, although this is more like a floral water. There is also a slight scent of incense. Towards the end, the bright red rubber boat burns off and is literally covered by the not entirely force-free freshness, which is somehow totally out of place here. That's pretty much it. Freshness paired with burning plastic and a few flowers. A bit of incense and we have a sailor romance. Or maybe not. What is that keeps running through my head over and over again. I find absolutely no guideline here and for me personally, it is one of the worst fragrances I have been able to test recently. Accordingly, my assessment is also devastating, except the bottle is kept simple and the durability and sillage are quite okay.

If this is art, then I personally won't buy it at all, because it doesn't appeal to me in the slightest. Someone must have been looking for a maritime low point and probably found it.

I wasn't expecting much anyway, so I'm not particularly disappointed. What's really bad now is that the scent reminds me of the awful song I used to listen to up and down in my childhood. Because: I grew up in a ski resort.

Antonia was only right about one thing in the song:
Quote: Kissing on board is forbidden
I'll also tell you why
The boat is a construction
It tips over when you kiss...

And it's not just me that tips over here, but also the complete misconstruction of this fragrance. Thank you, I'm done!
