Jaguar now also... thumbs down

So far, I have been able to find something to appreciate in all Jaguar fragrances. That doesn't mean that each one has suited my taste, but I found them all at least craft-wise solid and could understand the idea behind the scents. Whether sweet (e.g. Excellence), fruity (e.g. Gold), soapy-green (Original), or whatever.
This plastic Barbie here, however, is hard to surpass in terms of lack of ideas (although... one should never say never). A complete absence of creativity and natural ingredients. Actually, the perfumer should be sent to an ENT doctor... although I can even imagine that something like this might be intended in 2018.

Opening: plastic citrus fruits (plastic lemon and plastic apple) from the decoration department of a hardware store

Heart note: plastic with a lot of plastic, even more plastic, and a bit of wood-licorice aroma from BASF

Base: probably a bit more licorice aroma from BASF (they apparently had to dispose of their leftover stock).

I simply can't smell anything else, let alone something natural. Sorry!

Conclusion: downright desperately uninspired chemical trash that unfortunately lasts longer than hoped.
Obviously, something new had to be thrown onto the market quickly before the Christmas business to make a few bucks

PS: at least the bottle stands stable. Maybe the name "Stance" refers to that...

Simply brilliant. Haven't laughed like that in a long time.

Oh dear… that doesn’t sound good at all ;). Although the presenter has definitely hit the mark before. Maybe some super noses just have their horizons exceeded. And just "going with the flow" instead of "leading the way" doesn’t work forever.
