uncompromisingly masculine
Yesterday I bought Vintage Black blind - since I like Black for her, and Rossi offered it at a very low price.
Unfortunately, there was no tester - and it was placed among the women's perfumes.
So, a shock in the morning hour when I took the first spray.
I nearly toppled over from the unexpected sharpness!
Dark and looming like misfortune, the scent spreads throughout the room.
Is that a thick oak growing right in the middle of the room, darkening everything?
Of course, it dawned on me that I had picked a men's fragrance.
And indeed, an uncompromisingly masculine one.
Even with good will, you can't call it unisex.
I switch gears and now consider it from a men's perspective.
After the German oak, thankfully, lavender dares to emerge, bringing a little light into the darkness.
Yes, a hint of lime is also still perceptible.
I mentally go through my male friends and consider that perhaps the robust forester could handle the monumental woody scent, as he has experience with thick oaks and wood scents.
But the initial sharpness remains. Is that the pepper?
Vintage needs a wearer with an unyielding attitude and an intact nervous system.
Otherwise, it could come across as unpleasantly "stimulating".
I will cautiously offer Vintage to my rugged friend, with the right to decline it.
But who knows - maybe he is completely wild about it?
I really can't assess it.
P.S. My girlfriend, who today found nothing appealing from Creed to Lutens to Bond, reflected on Vintage.
Who would have thought?
