Hopefully they make good clothes…
This is yet one of my decants from my mystery box. Since the brand did not ring a bell, I checked up on it: American brand selling everything. And apparently also fragrances.
This one does not start well. I get a synthetic-sharp note, supposedly the socalled fresh note mentioned? After 5-10 minutes the grapefruit appears which makes a way better impression but still a strangely synthetic experience. The combination of notes may sound nice in writing, but are unsuccessfully combined in real life. At no time do I get amber, sandalwood, musk or jasmine - just this synthetic, sour smell. Luckily, it wears off after two to three hours and sillage is poor.
Bottom line: this is to me a disappointing fragrance that I will not wear again.
