Toffee for the mature gentleman
While looking for a caramel fragrance, I came across Marbert Man Pure Black Intense I've heard a lot of positive things about it online and the reviews here aren't too bad either.
For the price, I didn't have any great expectations.
And yet the opening disappointed me a lot.
A very unpleasant, synthetic cardamom note is very present in the first few minutes.
Gives me real old-school vibes, so not mine at all.
the fragrance costs €10-15 and you have to wait just as long, i.e. 10-15 minutes, until it slowly becomes pleasant.
Then the toffee note really comes out and remains prominent, while the cardamom slowly disappears.
However, it is not a playful, over-sweet toffee note like you would find in one or two clubbing fragrances.
It smells more woody, tartly sweet and not quite realistically like something edible.
Many people might like that.
So if you're expecting realistic toffee / caramel here, I'm sorry to disappoint you.
It has more of a toffee vibe that comes across as very masculine and mature, especially in combination with the cedarwood.
So finally toffee for a more mature target group.
Cedarwood and toffee are the notes you notice right to the end.
You definitely have to be a fan of both notes to like the fragrance.
The performance is average at best, I would say.
I would have hoped for a stronger radiance, but for the small price, it's perfectly fine.
The durability, on the other hand, is slightly better.
My conclusion: You can do it, but you don't have to.
Personally, I wouldn't buy a bottle, it just doesn't knock my socks off. And at the moment I only buy fragrances that convince me 100%, Marbert..... just doesn't manage that.
You can find it at Müller, where you can also test it if this review sounds interesting.
Unfortunately, the fragrance is not blindbuy safe.
Better to test it first.
