Nuuuuuu Jooooork

8:00 a.m., my clock radio switches on and Chris Martin wakes me and my husband. That's a great way to start the day. You can simply rely on 1live! I quickly hop in the shower, put on my new Guido Maria Kretschmer outfit and reward myself with twenty sprays of Anticonformiste. The fragrance just suits me. I'm totally funky myself. Stupid Tanja from the administration will make eyes at me. Ha!

So off I go in my yellow Fiat500, the rear window of which is decorated with the names of my angels, and happily make my way to the BKK Salzgitter office. I quickly put the few hours behind me. Because tonight I'm finally going out with the girls to sip cocktails at our favorite bar. Of course, I'll be capturing it all on Instagram. Bärbel will definitely be commenting again #wiederholungsbedarf.
Uuuhhh, Alicia keys is on the radio now. So turn it up and sing along. Nuuuuuuu Jooooork!

By the way, Mathias asked me to marry him on the Empire State Building. So romantic.

So, all joking aside. What kind of shitty name is that? This fragrance is as anti-conformist as Bautzen mustard at a barbecue in the East.
I also wonder where the New York reference comes from. But well, due to the urban diversity, you could also attribute every fragrance to New York in some way.
But especially in combination with the name, I could think of dozens of better ideas. Swing and blues, jazz clubs, disreputable streets, cab drivers, youth in the backyard, the chaos of the 70s, electronic influences from Detroit and Chicago, riots on Christopher Street, cultural imports of all kinds, psychopaths on Wall Street, the beginning of breakdancing and graffiti...

Well, so be it. So to the fragrance: boring!
If there's one fragrance that conforms, it's freshies. If so, then they really should have taken a risk here and reinvented the wheel, confused people, maybe even shocked them. As it is, it remains a totally random, fresh fragrance that you can get dozens of times in every Douglas store and have already smelled. Just not at this absurd price.
In terms of craftsmanship, however, the perfume is not bad at all. I think the top note is well done and the performance is also not bad for a fresh fragrance. However, it becomes too synthetic for me over time and unfortunately remains very linear and subtle. More mint and patchouli could have provided at least a few rough edges with a stronger contrast from the pepper and perhaps the name wouldn't have triggered me quite as much. But it probably would have.

The Mizensir PR department should certainly do everything differently for the next fragrance. In any case, I would suggest renaming Anticonformiste to Freshheit for the time being.

Nevertheless, thank you very much for the competition and the opportunity to test the fragrance.
