Very helpful Review
It's not that bad at all
Seductive Homme starts with a fruity - zesty mandarin that comes across a bit old-fashioned, which is due to the combination with cardamom.
The pink pepper makes the mandarin slightly prickly in the nose, but this only lasts for the first 5 minutes.
I agree with my predecessor that the top note reminds a bit of a retirement home :-)
However, there is already a sweetness detectable in the top note that immediately shows which direction the fragrance takes.
For 15 minutes, the 3 components can be sniffed on my skin before the heart note fully unfolds.
And then we really have something very pleasant and also extraordinary, in my opinion.
The sweet - floral, vanilla orchid reminiscent of vanillin sets the tone in the heart note, which is only underlaid with violet leaf and vetiver.
The vetiver still gives the fragrance a distinctly masculine note, so it is not too feminized :-)
I have actually not yet been able to sniff a men's fragrance where the vanilla orchid is so pronounced in the heart note.
As a fan of sweet scents, I naturally find this extremely appealing.
This constellation remains detectable on my skin for about 5 hours before the fragrance takes on a creamy touch, which I attribute to the sandalwood.
The amber wood gives the fragrance a cuddly, cozy woody note, supported by sweet patchouli and pure clean musk.
Overall, the fragrance is detectable on my skin for just under 7 hours, which I find quite decent for this price range.
The sillage is moderate from the start; it is by no means overwhelming, but one can be perceived at arm's length. However, it diminishes towards a skin-close scent after 2.5 hours.
In conclusion, one can really find something positive in Seductive Homme. Even though it is synthetic, it does not come across like a chemistry lab box.
Seductive Homme is in the lower price range; I got 50 ML for €19.99 at DM and must say that this fragrance, despite the low price, more than does justice to you.

Laibo, thank you very much. Yes, that's unfortunately true, the top note isn't that great, but the rest is good. Plus, many top notes are only noticeable in the first 20 minutes, which for me is never a deciding factor for a fragrance.

The best description for the scent! That's exactly how I perceive it too. Unfortunately, the top note brings the fragrance down.
