Roasted coffee, marple syrup with... burnt wires and lovage???

First of all I'm gonna say what „feedback" I received...

„smells like burnt wires, something like burnt plug";

„smells like vegetable soup”;

„did you just cooked something and forgot it in the oven? It smelled in the whole house like burnt food”;

„*me going at the gym 12h after applying adding 2 attempts to wash it away*
-person 1: hmm, smells like lovage here
-person 2: *comes in locker room* hey, it smells like lovage in here too!”

„I came to work on wednesday after vacation, I got a little worried of the smell and went to almost every plug and checked them, because it smelled like something was on fire, I thought it was because of Quartz heaters (btw, i wore the perfume on a monday)"

"*Gave it to a friend to test it*
-smells like I threw my jacket in a soup... and there is something burnt in it, like burnt wires"

Funny, but not.
What do i think...
This perfume smells exactly like fresh ground roasted coffee beans with a little bit of caramel and Marple syrup.

The opening smells exactly like roasted coffee 1:1, and then goes a little bit into am expresso zone which is good, very natural smell.
After a little bit of time comes a little bit of sweetness, which is welcomed. A nice sweet aura from maple syrup, the thing is that the caramel note comes also a little „roasted”, burnt sugar... Which is normal, but there is already the „smoky/burnt thing" in it from coffee in a high amount, so this 2 notes gives to the perfume a little too much "burning stuff", and upclose is ok, but in the air IS NOT THE BEST CHOICE, because it starts to smell like something is on fire.
Around me it smells perfect, coffee with maple syrup, little bit of caramel and vanilla hints, but when someone is far away, they'll get only the burnt things.

Even when you touch the area where you sprayed with the jacket, blouse or whatever material, it's gonna smell like Followed, and the thing is that on the jacket, for example, it will smell a little like lovage and vegetable soup.

Smell: i'd say for me it's a 7.8/10, but the drydown just nah, it smells like food and i'll give it in total 6/10 just because the coffee note is just how I like it.

The performance? 10/10. With 3.5 sprays you'll fill up the entire floor, not only the room. (Anw, this one is too strong)
Just take Baccarat Rouge, Interlude man, Oud Extrait, spray wich one 2 times on you and that's how 1 spray of Followed is.

Bottle design 10/10, bottle quality and sprayer 2/10. I really love how the bootle looks, but the materials used are quite cheap.
