Someone ran after me to ask what I was wearing...
Now that 2024 is over, I am trying to write a few thoughts about my most worn frags.
GFS was my most worn fragrance, along with Afnan's Collectors Edition.

This is one of my favourite from MFK, and one that you should consider if you like Juniper as a note. When sprayed, that note is what you'll first smell along with a fresh mix of musk & woods. Some people may perceive it as pungent, hence some of the other comments here saying that the fragrance is not so gentle after all. Anyway, the juniper will stay around for the first couple of hours, with a decent projection. Then the dry down will develop into a mildly sweet vanilla.

Performance wise, we are talking about 6-8 hours. I often tend to prefer fragrances that are versatile and have a wider spectrum of uses... this definitely falls into the category. It is genderless, but slightly masculine leaning. All season are fine, but the juniper & freshness combo make this a good choice for hotter months. Not the most formal scent, but definitely office safe as it smells "clean".
Now, referring to the title... this is the only fragrance that in 2024 got me an unsolicited compliment. I don't care about compliments in general, but it's worth sharing as some people do.
During a relatively warm evening, I was walking toward an extremely busy Shibuya's Scramble Square and a person run after me. They stopped me and asked what I was wearing because "it smells amazing" and where could they get it from. So this is the story... I'd say it is a simple proof that the scent is good and the projection works.

Wearing it made the difference.
Gentile Fluidity Silver is an atypical fresh fragrance. The metallic, woody spiciness was too unfamiliar for me to value.

I sprayed it on my arm a few times to determine if I should give it a full wear. “Nope” was my response each time. After 7-8 months, I was struck by the sameness of the fresh fragrances I own, the familiar citrus, fruity, sweet mass appealing fresh scents. It called to mind the uniqueness of Gentle Fluidity Silver. I sensed that my nose may welcome it if I tried it again. Finding the decant, I gave it a full wearing for the first time. Loved the scent bubble! Smelling it on skin does not give you the cooling woody metallic experience.

The longevity, projection, and sillage were a satisfying surprise. Following three full wearings, I added it to my collection. It is extremely versatile and can be worn in any season and for any reason. A terrific office, leisure, daily scent possible signature. It is bottle worthy, especially if you’re a collector.

GFS is not my favorite fresh fragrance, but I appreciate the wearing experience each time I reach for it. To me, it smells rich, mature, and confident. GFS is a grown man scent that does not make you smell old. The place it occupies in my fragrance wardrobe was and is needed.

Keep it simple stupid
As the title of my review implies, Keep it simple stupid.

Gentle fluidity silver is the furthest thing from a complicated fragrance, not because it lacks complexity. But rather because its complexity is exactly what makes it so simple.

Gentle fluidity silver is far and away the most unique clean fragrance I’ve yet to smell, it’s almost linear yet complex to the point I can’t put my finger on it. I have, since I started collecting looked for a fragrance that does what I wanted from a clean fragrance. All I wanted was the fragrance equivalent of a silver wedding band with squared off edges, The water coming in a well lit rainfall shower. And after going through many niche houses I eventually landed on gentle fluidity silver.

This is a fragrance you can’t say either opens or changes in the typical sense. It opens as a clean scent like what you would imagine water to smell like if it did have a smell, any note that isn’t juniper or woods are almost gift wrapped by the aforementioned notes. You can always smell those two, but as you go through the development of the fragrance, the “gift” inside changes. As it opens you can get a little of that coriander and vanilla, then closer to the heart you take a peek to find the addition of nutmeg. Then as Christmas Day you finally get to unwrap that present and you get an entirely seamless mixture of the notes I spoke of earlier with the addition of a bow made of vanilla and musk.

As I said this fragrance is really just simple and complex all at once. There’s not definitive top heart or base yet there is. You can smell everything and nothing at the same time.

Scent 9.1/10 Easily in my top 5 clean fragrances of all.

Versatility 9.6/10 - Any time anywhere, just keep it clean.

Sillage 7.5/10 - Good projection but as is the nature of fresh fragrances it wouldn’t be turning heads off performance along.

Durability 9/10 - excellent durability, fresh and clean are words that do not mix with my skin at all when it comes to fragrance and yet gentle fluidity silver does just that with no issue.

Value 9.4/10 - Considering your only other options are Prada L’homme and SMW, this is not only an excellent intermediary price wise but blows both of those fragrances out of the water.

Gin & ash
Juniper and nutmeg make a good couple. In higher concentrations they render a pretty good gin impression. That is only partially the case here. Fans of a photorealistic gin theme should look further and consider fragrances like Gin Fizz or 004 Gin Mandarine Musc. On the other hand, a pure gin scent would not please the masses.

So, understandably, the clarity of the juniper here is offset with an ash-grey base, which kind of distorts the gin image, but creates a more familiar and popular scent profile. The base combines clary sage, musk, vanilla and a big shot of ambrox. Sillage levels are highly intrusive for the first hour and then tone down to something more appropriate. Upcycled mainstream yes, but effective.

Beautiful Scent For The Summer
~UPDATED REVIEW August 18, 2023~

I repurchased this fragrance. I found a used Feb 2020 batch and it is totally different from the 2023 bottle I returned. The performance is much better. At least it’s staying on my skin for about six hours versus the 2023 batch literally lasted for about an hour.

I’m not saying that this went through reformulation but I’m very suspicious it has…
————————————————————

Received a 2023 batch. Smells gorgeous and unisex leaning masculine. Definitely built off the BR540 frame but without the feminine components of BR540. I find BR540 too sweet and feminine for my taste and GFS is perfect.

I was looking forward to wearing this for the hot summer days but it is so weak. Six sprays on my neck and arms disappeared within an hour.

If I can find a 2019 bottle, I will buy it without hesitation.

I ended up returning my 2023 bottle because the performance was lacking and very underwhelming.

Gentle Fluidity Silver is fresh and acrid, woody and a little bit powdery. You get the juniper berries, ambroxan and musk.

This and Grand Soir are masterpiece of MFK in my opinion. Never get enough of both. Rich, clean, intense and you could wear it everywhere.

Another reformulation victim? Used to have prominent tuberose/white floral tones, now just woods, juniper & musk with some Aventus nuances.

I get the hype. It's like fresh gin and tonic. Lightly masculine but good longevity on my skin. This is definitely a grail

Fresh and clean scent with a cozy and delicate sweet base. Excellent unisex summer fragrance, although to me it leans towards masculine.

Boring, bland and inoffensive. I don't get the hype on this style of MFK perfume. They're fine, but they're nothing special. Overrated

This just smells like some of the men's shampoos that I've encountered before, too generic. The gin and tonic comparison makes sense though.

A fresh and boozy fragrance for the warm months. The opposite of Gentle Fluidity Gold. Solid scent, but some will hesitate at the price.
