First i wanna start this off by saying I bought this perfume expecting to smell a fresh aquatic fragrance but was terribly mistaken, to my nose the lime and ginger overpower every other note this fragrance could have had, with only a hint of patchouli, besides that ginger and lime just consume every other note. I was disappointed because i don't particularly like ginger or lime, although after a few weeks i have learned to appreciate it. definitely get this if you wanna smell like ginger and lime.

In der Tat kann ich nachvollziehen, warum dieser Duft vielen Menschen nicht mundet. Er ist, sagen wir es so, gewöhnungsbedürftig. In den Hauptakkorden steht "spicy" und das ist wohl das Wort, was den Dark Blue am besten beschreibt.
Ich würde mir in der Tat eine zitrische Note als Herz oder basis note wünschen, so ist er mir doch zu stumpf und einseitig (entwickelt sich gefühlt nicht).

Ich finde um ehrlich gesagt keinen Anlass, um so einen "scharfen" Duft zu tragen. Er wirkt etwas penetrant und verfliegt relativ schnell auf der Haut. Gelegentlich mache ich ihn direkt nach dem Duschen drauf, um einfach etwas cleane frische an mir zu haben, ansonsten trage ich ihn zugegebenermaßen selten.

Solider Duft, aber definitiv kein must buy.

It smells of citrus and spices, I'd say grapefruit, lemon as top notes and then a middle of cardamom and sage. Scent is completely linear, does not change at all from when I spray it on to when I smell it 2 hours later.

It kind of smells like men's after shave, deodorant or just generic men's face wash gel. Maybe even like a scent from 20 years ago. Compared to all the amazing modern fragrances designer and niche alike, I feel like there is no spark here.

It's wearable in every setting, its projection and longevity are good and its price is amazing for what it is, but that's everything I can say about it.

This was the only cologne I could never stand. What a bad smell which lingers, I am not sure how people still like it. Don't even want to write more about it but that's my personal opinion and am sure many share it.
