Fake vitamin powder “juice”
It’s interesting that everyone pretty much has the same thoughts on this fragrance: smells amazing, but doesn’t last. I don’t agree with the first part. It’s ok, but there are much better scents in the genre.
The issue is mainly the citrus note. It is not crisp and realistic like in Dior Homme Cologne (2013) for example, but rather has this fake sweetness injected into it. M. Cavallier-Belletrud said, “I wanted a shot of vitamin C in the fragrance, something full of energy,” and I think he succeeded a bit too well. It smells like one of those citrus-flavored powders you mix with water to get a fake-tasting “juice.”
The dry down is a fresh musk that I feel like most other perfumes with this DNA contain, nothing special. I’d say for a citrus musk freshie, Dior Homme Cologne (2013) and even Versace Man Eau Fraîche Eau de Toilette are just more pleasant to the nose.
