Whoever doesn't read the instructions is to blame themselves
Sometimes we convince ourselves that we can do everything on our own, without the outside help of another. I admit, I have never read the accompanying instructions before testing a fragrance, but in this case, it is highly advisable.
Jean Paul Gaultier's Monsieur Eau du Matin is not a fragrance in the EdC, EdT, or EdP strength. It is, in the German translation, a "Revitalizing Fragrance". Uh, I don't understand that at all! The Dutch(?) "Geparfumeerde Lotion" sounds much more familiar. It is a full-body fragrance lotion to spray on. From the English, I gather "toning properties," so a kind of tonic, and clearly: "Rub over the body for a discrete fragrance."
Anyone who sprays the fragrance only on the back of their hand and around their neck, thinking they have a going-out scent, will of course be disappointed - hence the puzzled comments and statements. This "Uppfriskande Doft" or "Frescor Estimulante" (no idea which languages) can be generously applied after showering (and don't forget to lightly rub it in - of course, the purest exception regarding fragrance rubbing). It may not be summer yet, but when I return from work in the afternoon slightly sweaty and can't jump straight into the shower, I just take off my shirt and apply it to my upper body. It keeps me fresh for several hours until I can shower, and no one runs away from me.
Yes, it is fresh, with a dose of citrus fruits, and definitely cucumber green. It reminds me most of carafes filled with water, in which some cucumber slices are floating. In short, cucumber water, which I find very refreshing in the summer.
The wall bottle - simply top-notch!
So don't dismiss it right away, but read the instructions first. Then it will work out with the neighbor too.
