If You’re Windy, You’ll Sing
I immediately found Police’s new green line interesting, and I took home To Be Super[Pure] for a ridiculous price, €15 for 75ml, a steal I would say. When the sales assistant offered me the perfume, asking me if I wanted to try it, I didn’t refuse. As soon as she gave me the paper strip and I brought it closer to my nose, the association with the genderless perfume par excellence, CK One Eau de Toilette, was instantly triggered! “What a shame,” I said to myself. I already own a 200ml bottle, and a dupe would have been redundant, despite the very attractive price. I then asked to try other fragrances, finding the Le Parfum Royal very captivating with that modified patchouli to embellish the cocktail. Instinctively, I brought the mouillete of To Be Super [Pure] back to my nose. To my great surprise, something had changed in the meantime. While maintaining that sense of lightness and airiness that distinguishes CK One, this Police perfume had taken a more herbaceous and smoky direction, presumably thanks to the black tea.
Speaking of Police To Be Super [Pure], a cascade of freshness, spiciness, and a bite of booziness is the initial accord that the perfume releases. The shades are citrus, and green, with fresh spices. Definitely, the combo of bergamot and mandarin is what makes the scent similar to iconic CK One. I bet that perfumer Véronique Nyberg, who is the nose behind the latest To Be creations, i.e "To Be - Green | Police" and "To Be - Super[Natural] | Police", was asked, or somehow forced, to create something along the lines of CK One, changing a few nuances here and there, but maintaining a similar structure, achieving this rewarding result. She was able to balance familiarity and uniqueness. After a short while, the MANE’s Bigarane molecule, which emulates the smell of neroli, adds a sort of greenness. This molecule expresses the freshest facets of neroli, unlike the natural oil, which diffuses sweeter nuances. So far, Despite the synthetic molecules used, the scent manages to maintain a natural quality.
After the first few minutes, accords of dusty flowers and mineral tea leaves slowly emerge. It is precisely by entering the middle phase that Super [Pure] and CK One reach a crossroads and take two different paths. The tones of black tea leaves are more refined, rich, earthy, mineral, and smoky than the green tea leaves we know from CK One. Just as osmanthus flowers provide a light talcum powder that differs from that of violet leaves and iris root. In Super [Pure], despite the use of the MANE’s Mugane molecule, the lily of the valley smell that it should reproduce is not so lavish, but rather subtle and well blended with the osmanthus, creating that pleasant bittersweet aura. Overall, the perfume continues to maintain that airy and light aspect revealed at the beginning, with that sense of purity that makes it clean and a little soapy.
A final turning point announces the entry of the dry-down, a phase in which the perfume takes on a woody, salty and sweetish turn. I certainly perceive driftwood, which releases an aroma similar to that of ambergris, a bit fatty, and green. I suppose the MANE’s Maderal molecule adds a woody accord, but it is something very soft, and delicate, with no cedar or sandal influences. Instead, the davana note appears fruity, floral, and a tad woodsy and sweet, with a tea-like smell that reinforces the black tea note. If smelled close to the skin, there are bitter, herbaceous, slightly balsamic nuances.
In conclusion, To Be Super[Pure] is a pleasant, fresh and clean fragrance with the right out-of-the-shower effect. It is suitable for the day, perfect for work or sport, and its delicacy does not disturb those around it. You can wear it whenever you want to have a clean scent on you, like after a relaxing shower followed by minimal, comfortable, light clothing. At no stage of its evolution does the fragrance manifest impulses towards the feminine or masculine poles, it remains neutral. Spring and summer are the most suitable seasons to wear it. Despite its light formula, the perfume has a good payoff, lasting several hours, although it transforms quickly like a skin perfume after the first hour. But it stays on for a long time, and every now and then it releases that sensation of freshness and cleanliness that gives serenity. If you also like the CK One genre, then you could try it and use it as an alternative, without necessarily considering it a replica. For my taste, this perfume has not received the right attention it deserves, a little too underrated.
I’m expressing the sensations I get from a skull I’ve owned since May 2024 (BC 2202196A, PD 2022-07-15).
