Against All Odds
How come this decent fragrance, in my honest opinion, only got a score of 4.8 out of 10 the moment I am writing this review? Okay, maybe it doesn't shine on performance. Still, the scent is contemporary, not disruptive, but it's not bad at all. First, the nose behind Canyon Rush for Him is Claude Dir, the same person who created Extreme Eau de Toilette, some Bond n ° 9 and some Zaharoff, all niche perfumes. I was saying it's something I've already smelled, and immediately, I didn't associate this perfume with other super-inflated ones. Still, I paired it with Sauvage Eau de Toilette, a lighter version of him. If there were Sauvage Cologne, it would be like Canyon Rush.
Canyon Rush is a recent release that came out a couple of years after Canyon Escape for Him. Although they share a similar box and bottle design, the scents are two things apart, and Rush smells nothing like Escape. Rush is an aromatic fougère fragrance with an electric blue glass and a light grey wooden cap.
In the opening, I receive an overdose of light violet clashing with sour bergamot. I suppose there is a tinge of spiciness behind that mix, the black peppercorn, although it is feeble, not dominant. Instead, I do not get the aquatic notes of the watermelon. The initial phase is aqueous, with a metallic slant and some citrus nuances.
The resemblance to Dior Sauvage becomes more apparent in the heart when the aromatic lavender flowers and geranium leaves emerge. Bluish grass has a hay-like edge, while the velvety geranium is rosy and not too green. Alas, I can't catch the lemon magnolia, one of my favourite flowers whose intoxicating scent fills the air during flowering. Perhaps a hint of this fleshy petaled flower drowned in the heart, but the whole fragrance isn't centred on it.
Eventually, the bottom develops in the warmth of mixed wood with resins. There is, above all, a salty and semi-sweet ambroxan domination, tamed by clean patchouli. Sometimes I get the dryness of cedar wood, except that the appearance of the sharpened pencil shavings is slightly tenuous, perhaps covered by rich amber. Sorry if I insist, but the resemblance to Dior Sauvage lasts to the end, despite Canyon Rush having its own distinctive, more youthful character.
Like Canyon Rush, Canyon Escape also lasts a few hours, almost a whole morning or evening, so you need to reapply it if you want to wear it for an entire day. The aromatic and fougére accords and its amber background make it pleasant during spring and autumn mornings or evenings and outdoors on summer nights. It adheres to the skin and is not intrusive or harmless to the people around it. It is designed for a young audience and is suitable for school or any indoor place. But an adult can quickly wear it even to work; I like it even though I'm a daddy. Of course, you must pick the Sauvage genre, a genre that divides.
I base the review on a 50ml bottle I have owned since September 2022.
