7 Natural Loewe 2012

Since I greatly appreciate the Loewe women's fragrances, I reached for Loewe 7 Natural as well.

My dear friend is a Loewe native, and what could be more fitting than to dedicate a fragrance of the same brand to him.

The addition of "natural" makes me think of a light, natural scent that would also suit my nature-loving Mani well.

But that is an understatement.
The pepper strikes harshly, completely overshadowing the yuzu.
Fortunately, neroli counters the pepper with some coolness - a tough battle in which the pepper prevails.
The incense gives the brash pepper a good smack, causing it to retreat to the corner, counting itself out.
The smoky cedar can now shine, with slightly sweet, grassy vetiver in tow.
I breathe a sigh of relief - but the sturdy pepper has regained its composure and rises again, albeit a bit battered, back into the ring.

A combative, dynamic scent - without being sporty.

This uncomfortable fragrance does not suit my balanced friend, who loves tranquility.
Much more fitting for fiery spirits with a contrarian streak.

The description on the cover "Human and Divine" is also contradictory, and the "Divine" part is quite exaggerated.

A controversial scent that I cannot warm up to, and one that I cannot imagine on my dear Mani.
