Shamelessly Charmless
Sun Men Eau de Toilette is such a beautiful fragrance. An ode to long nights on vacation, to summer, to light enjoyment and joy.
But what is THIS here? Nothing of the sort, no charm but also no shame in sullying the great name of Sun Men with this. Don't get me wrong, Sun Men Eau de Parfum is not a catastrophic fragrance. But it has nothing to do with the original.

It is citrusy, fresh, and quite synthetic. Above all, it is rather bitter, completely different from the warm, beautiful EdT. Its compositional foundation is quite faceless.
I don't even know why they didn't simply intensify the lightness of the EdT in the EdP and perhaps even add a bit more depth at the expense of the subtly fresh character. So much could have been possible...

Instead, this EdP is just a disappointing, mediocre flanker that neglects the DNA and instead offers a very generic, boring fresh mix. No one needs this, it can go.

You can wear it in your leisure time, in everyday life, or while exercising. It maintains its solid projection for 2 hours, then it diminishes, and after 6 hours, you're at skin level. Visually, I prefer the color scheme of the EdT bottle, otherwise, the bottle is okay.

One of My Summer Scents from 2020
A beautiful everyday summer fragrance. Fresh, citrusy, pleasant. Light.
The longevity is not exceptionally long; you can enjoy this scent for a good five to six hours (like with a good Eau de Toilette). Juniper berry and cardamom come to the forefront, and yet the impression of a fresh breeze remains.

Why is it so different from the EDT?

Congratulations, Jil! The first Sun that I like. A solid men's fragrance. Spicy-fresh; I don't smell anything synthetic. Works well in winter too.

Very amusing how a scent gets torn apart because it doesn't meet expectations. Very fresh, fruity, everyday basic fragrance.

How can a brand fall so low?
Used to be great, now it's a flop. This has nothing to do with the EDT. Every deodorant is better!

As special and beautiful as the EdT is/was, the EdP is extremely generic and overly sweet. Did it really take them 18 years for this sugar cocktail?!?

Pleasant Fanta Orange opening, which quickly turns into an unmotivated, unpleasant, cheap-dirty Ambrox aroma-chemical wood vibe.

Artificially sour. H + S are not very good. The EdT is much better and more pleasant.

I didn't want to believe it, but it's really not good! Juniper, pepper, woods, and all in pure synthetic form.

The ultimate nightmare scent, reminds me of really awful synthetic drugstore fragrances from the 2000s. Not. happening.

High expectations, disappointing result. Herbaceous, peppery freshness with a hint of warmth. EdT Men is better - Sun EdP by far.
