Beautiful sunny opening...
Overall I consider M. Micallef scents to be some of the best blends on the market, however, Pomelos is quite a let down for me. The opening is beautiful and sunny with sparkling grapefruit shining through. This uplifting opening is gone in an instant though and is replaced by the harshness of the other citrus so I find it bitter and biting. As the scent moves through different stages, the bitter citrus turns to a very strong soapiness on my skin, followed by a dry-down stage of a strong hairspray vibe. Eeeek!
I would imagine others could wear this just fine if you don't have issues with citrus going to strong soap. Pomelos is an easy pass for me - darn.
