Beautiful fresh mint
A bit of spicy-sweet anise added
reminds me of woodruff
Aquatic & almond
Unique, but good
Ambrox-vetiver base is scratchy*

The notes sound so lovely, but your statement is really sobering. Woodruff isn't really my thing either...

You really have to like woodruff here.
The base is quite disappointing.

A decent scent for summer.

I'm also missing that special something here.

It's definitely somewhat unusual, but it wears really well. For me, it's the best of the ideal men. Unfortunately discontinued 😢

@Luwa I can understand that too. I'm lucky that I don't find some hated chemicals (like Ambroxan, etc.) unpleasant or even can't smell them at all. It makes life a bit more enjoyable ;)

The top note is nice, but the base is unfortunately unpleasant for me.

Starts off so great, what a shame.

The base would definitely be too harsh for me as well.

It's a shame that it has to be scratchy in the end...

Even more than that down to the base.

Apart from the last line, it sounds really good.

I'm not so sure about that, mint and almond...

* With the fresher scents in the line that have vetiver in the base, I get a slightly scratchy note, but often it feels synthetic, which I struggle with. However, the top note is really good and quite rare.
