Mediterranean freshie

First of all:
As long as you don't absolutely dislike fresh scents, you can simply buy the fragrance blindly.

As many have already said here, Sculpture Homme is a timeless classic, a fragrance that always works and a crowdpleaser.
The profile is simply a clean, fresh fragrance that you can really wear almost anywhere.

Due to its cleanliness, it is often recommended for sports and the office, where I can absolutely go with it.

Unfortunately, however, the Mediterranean side is often neglected in my opinion.
You get a nice top note here which is already sparkling due to the citrus but still remains rather soft overall due to the florality. In addition, you get a coriander note which then gives me these beautiful Italy, Greece associations.

The drydown is also rather soft due to the flowers. I like the light warmth in combination with the sweetness of the tonka bean, which fits really well into a summer evening. But don't expect too much spice because it only gets a minimal amount of amber and cedar.

What I find very interesting is that the fragrance definitely has some kind of synthetics (but please don't let that put you off). I am still puzzled where it comes from. It's not the citric, as is often the case with fragrances at this price.

The scent also has a "foaminess" to it. This is probably where the synthetic comes from. Whether you like it or not is up to you, but I for one don't find it annoying and it's something different.

As already mentioned, the fragrance is very good for its price.
What is really remarkable is the fragrance progression. At no point does it seem chaotic or even disorganized. (The level is really at the upper end of the niche segment)

On the other hand, however, the durability is really weak. I get about 5 hours here.
The sillage is only skin deep after the top note. (Whether this is good or bad is a matter of opinion)
