Man III Jil Sander 1987 Eau de Toilette

Unfortunately, I can only vaguely remember Jil Sander Man III. But since nothing has been written about it here so far, I thought I would rummage around in my memory to piece together a few remaining fragments.

At that time, I only had the scent in a miniature and found it rather strange. Basically, I preferred rather sweet or quite bitter creations, while Man III occupied a special place. It was actually far too spicy and herbal for me, as if someone had carelessly cooked together a bunch of spices and plants and distilled this stuff from the brew. For my nose, it was quite a bit too intense.

Nevertheless, I found a practical use for it. Every time I called in sick at school or during my training (which really happened rarely), I would wear this scent on the first day of my return, as it exuded an aura of witchcraft and pharmacy, suggesting that I was indeed anything but healthy.

Whether that worked, I no longer remember - but Man III never made it into my regular collection. And before anyone at Jil Sander gets the idea to bring this elaboration back to the market, they should rather consider a return of "Feeling Man"!
