James Bond 007 James Bond 007 2012 Eau de Toilette
10
Bond couldn't do anything?!?
Is it an extravagant, exclusive, unique scent?
Is it an olfactory revelation with many individually discernible notes?
Is it an absolute novelty in the bazaar of fragrance creations?
Not at all!!!
Nevertheless, I find it very unfortunate that this Eau de Toilette receives such poor ratings in many reviews/comments here. I can even understand many of the criticisms directed at this scent, but (and this must always be emphasized) we are dealing here with an inexpensive designer toilet. Especially in this lower price segment, I have not encountered many fragrances that have elicited such a positive response from those around me after I applied it.
To me, it smells fruity (apple) and fresh at the beginning. Especially after a cool shower in the summer, 007 reveals its best effect. During this season and in spring, Mr. Bond accompanies the wearer excellently and provides a lovely breeze of its scent character.
Of course, the individual stages of this concoction are not perceivable in their separate elements; this area is mostly reserved for niche fragrances, which, however, operate in different price ranges.
If you keep this in mind, you might find a bit more to appreciate in this 007.
“Bond: ‘A charming hint of nothing that you’re almost wearing. I like it.’ (Diamonds Are Forever) - somehow fits this little fragrance too ;)

I also think that the 007 fragrances are getting a bad rap here. They're not that bad.

Don't worry about it; it's often the case here that many fragrances get bad ratings just on principle. I think it's pretty good too; a fresh cheapie that you can always reach for. It's made for everyday wear, and that's a good thing :)

I also think that fragrances like this one often get a bad rap. It's an uncomplicated and pleasant scent. It smells clean and definitely more unique than the 12th Sauvage or the 97th Aventus clone.
