Personal: 8/10 - It's a light, airy, green musky fragrance. It's a bit sweet, but very nice.
Mass appeal: 7.5/10 – Light green musky florals are safe, though a touch bland and boring.
Performance: 5.5/10 – Very light. Sits close to the skin and fades faster than I’d like.
Value: 5.5/10 – Phlur pricing is fair but it doesn't 'wow' me to the degree necessary.
Uniqueness: 6.5/10 – Green musky florals aren’t new, but it's still nice and I enjoy its gentle sweetness.
SCORE: 66/100
Full bottle buy? YES, though thin and unremarkable, it smells like Axe Kilo - highschool flashbacks.
Blind buy? YES, it’s safe and inoffensive, but not at ALL a deep and complex scent.
Recommend? YES, if you want a breezy, clean summer skin scent that's a bit sweet and green.
Date night? YES, though it's light and lacking allure, it's clean and leans masculine.
Office safe? YES, perfectly professional and unobtrusive. I think it's great for the office.
Pros: It's not loud enough to really be intrusive. It's like a masculine take on the simple musk 'better than skin' scents.
Cons: Weak performance, somewhat generic DNA, and bit too bland for enthusiasts.
This is kind of like a Missing Person lite, in a more masculine light. It's a little sweet and green, but fruity and pleasant. Kind of like a musk forward fragrance for guys. It's really pleasant and agreeable but I don't have much to say about it. It's so simple that I'm having a hard time really figuring out what it is. Also, rhubarb is masked pretty nicely here and is less spicy and sour and more just 'fruity'. I like it.
It's really nice and pleasant. I enjoy it despite how little there is to say about it.
