Oud for sadness
This fragrance just makes me sad.
...
First of all: I am really very attached to OFG. It has accompanied me through thick and thin. It has shaped my love of perfume. Thanks to him, I dived even deeper into this niche.
...
That's exactly why I had high hopes that his successor would also inspire me. As soon as I heard that it was coming out, my curiosity got the better of me. But then... the bottle is simply a copy of the OFG with green accents and totally loveless. The fragrance itself is an olfactory chemical weapon like a stab in my perfume heart. In short, I can't stand the mixture of citrus, moss and ginger. Why ginger...
...
So I really can't understand a 7.7. If the fragrance were a main course in a 5-star restaurant, it would get an even 4. No more and no less. For the price and the hype, I would simply have expected more. Maybe that's exactly the problem. My expectations were simply too high. Some people seem to like it after all. However, I would recommend everyone to try the fragrance several times beforehand and wear it on their skin for a while. Unfortunately, this didn't make it any better for me.
...
Finally, here's a summary of what you can expect: Ginger, citrus, incense, chemicals, synthetics and then a little OFG mixed in.
