Surprisingly Pleasant

I just acquired it, a tester and a lonely original packaged perfume were still on the shelf. The excitement took hold of me, a pirate ship, well, this must be a hit. And it was just that - but so good! Strangely enough, I don't smell any pineapple; instead, I had the impression that there must be a little ginger floating around, but subtly. And above all, what then resulted from the interplay of amber, patchouli, and woods, there was for me a slight hint of flintlock pistols - at least that's how I imagine it (of course, one could also think of distant wafts of cannons, given the name).
By the way, I only saw the inscription "For navigators" when unpacking. That can only be helpful when you have to push through a crowd somewhere... For little money, a very pleasant scent for me, which is also good for women to wear, who dare. I'm curious how and if it layers with solo scents if one wants it to be a bit more feminine. And actually, a woman should also unpack a cigarillo for that, but self-rolled ones with whiskey flavor work too.

I love it ;-)

I was at Karstadt a few hours ago and sprayed it on myself.
At first, I thought wow, quite fruity and sweet, but it didn't take long, about 5 minutes, and the
scent that came was and still is (now 6 hours later) really good and masculine.
When I got home, I first let my girlfriend smell it, and she was also thrilled. So I can’t confirm at all that it’s not masculine or harmless.
It lives up to its name; the Armada stays in the harbor for a very long time :-)
Sorry if I can’t express myself as elegantly as others, but I’m just a regular man of the people who is unexpectedly excited about such an affordable perfume.

Gummy Bear Scent for Wolves in Sheep's Clothing

This men's perfume came to mind when I opened a pack of Haribo. I once tested it out of curiosity (what does something with that name smell like?) at the department store. That was a few years ago, but I still remember my irritation well: with the packaging and the name, I expected something very "masculine," something with leather, wood, smoke, sweat, and blood ;) maybe also rum, dirty, strong, dark... you know.
But the top note was just gummy bears! And that lasted until after about 30 minutes or so when a very subtle hint of patchouli came through.
Actually, I found it quite likable, and well-suited for when a man wants to appear harmless, which is often not the worst strategy :D
It was also inexpensive, just marked down to €14, so you could also soak the black sails with it...

Unknown Women's Magnet

The good Yves de Sistelle, I had ignored him for a long time, I knew Thallium and also Chairman, but had never tested them. I always walked straight past them in Galeria Kaufhof.
Two years ago, my wife and I were invited to dinner at Grandma and Grandpa's for Christmas, the whole family was present, my wife's aunt, my father-in-law, etc., old and young, even the little ones.
After one of the usual, hearty Christmas dinners, the younger ones were in the living room with their smartphones, while the older ones debated in the dining room about the speed cameras that were appearing more frequently again. I, on the other hand, was looking forward to dessert; Grandma's desserts always revolved around chocolate. Far from it, Grandma gathered everyone in the living room and Grandpa disappeared into the bedroom, gifts were to be distributed.
When everyone held something in their hands, I had no idea what this large (mine) package contained. Not wanting to seem greedy, I preferred to watch all my family members around me unwrapping their gifts. My father-in-law, sitting to my left, casually unwrapped a 125ml bottle of Joop! Homme, and I thought, wow. My brother-in-law, then 19, got S. Oliver Original Men. My wife's cousin, some Bruno Banani. So then it was clear, I had to have some kind of fragrance too; I didn't care which one, just please let it be a fragrance. It was a gift box with 100ml EdT and a 200ml shower gel tube. The label - Armada Black? I can't say if there was any mention of Yves de Sistelle anywhere, but "Armada Black" was not listed in the Parfumo database at that time.

I also can't say if anyone noticed the expression on my face, but I hope not. I was initially skeptical about whether this fragrance was a real fragrance and not from some Asian shop for 4,-, since we also received cinema tickets and restaurant vouchers.

Nevertheless, I sprayed it on on Christmas Day; the opening was very fruity, with the note that clearly dominated from the beginning to the dry down being pineapple, but the sweet and woody notes kept popping up in turn. Patchouli made it a bit sexier. Whether I should like this fragrance or let it gather dust, when my wife came around the corner, she suddenly said, I like that, and walked on. I couldn't understand the world anymore, that stuff? Sure, patchouli and pineapple are not rare, but the intensity of the fragrance is really not just a 10,- fragrance. Confused by the good response and the patchouli/pineapple trail, I kept it for a couple of months.

I used the fragrance until it was half gone and then gifted it to our intern, who fortunately is happy about everything, not as picky as I was ;)

Later, one day, I found it by chance and added it to my "Had" list.
I remember very clearly the longevity, which was easily 8 hours.
The sillage was good, not Mugler but filling the room.
The bottle felt heavy in hand, faux-metal though, but the glass body was solid.

In terms of price, the Sistelle fragrances are around 20,- but they are not particularly popular, although I would love to have Thallium Sport in my collection.
