Yellow Breeze
In my recent adventure to find a fragrance for summer that is long-lasting, fresh, green and fruity, the brand 'Mancera' offered me 'Melody of the sun'.
At first I wasn't hugely enthusiastic about this find, but after a relatively short while I changed my mind.
After applying the fragrance, we are given a small dose of citrus. Small because almost the entire fragrance from start to finish is taken over by a delicious pear. It aggressively washes the rest of the head notes off the map, leaving echoes of grapefruit and lavender in the background. The pear used is delicately sweet and smooth. What sets it apart from the others is the very tart coating. Juicy, freshly picked from the tree and washed rests in a linen basket ready to be enjoyed. It really is a pleasant feeling.
After lingering on the skin the scent gets very tea-like and green which I really enjoy. The green tea combined with sweet matcha, osmanthus, musk and amber, deliciously complete the whole fragrance. The sweetness is very balanced but absolutely not pushy. Bear in mind that I don't have a candy type sweetness in mind, but a twiggy pear tree type and a gentle whiff of a summer garden filled with ripe fruits.
The whole thing is a citrusy, aromatic and sweet fragrance for summer evenings. Created for people in love with the simple beauty of nature. The fragrance is definitely longer lasting thanks to its 'warmer' base. It lays on the skin in a very pleasant and smooth way, making you feel that gentle summer breeze on your skin. I am very happy with the choice that was made for my purchase and I more than confident to recommend it to both ladies and gentlemen ;)

Not so good after all
If there is anyone still out there who has not heard of 'Layton' then they probably live in a cave or have no clue about perfume at all. One of the most talked about men's fragrances of recent years. Really lovely but sadly overrated, for me it has already...
