Soft-sweet fragrance.
My boyfriend has this EDT, so I can write a bit on how this projects on others.

All and all, this is a fragrance that starts as green/fresh with a great opening, and it turns into sweet/synthetic. It leaves a very nice, soft, and pleasant skinscent. Longevity is quite good, and sillage is quite soft, which is a good thing for these type of fragrances.

Peppermint bubblegum
This fragrance was created by Jacques Cavallier and Alberto Morillas. Although we only see Cavallier credited, Morillas worked with him.

This Is a fragrance that had some success sonce its being around for +20 years. Its not something that was common at the time, and it was probably received as a weird new thing.

It opens with a strong fresh and sweet concoction with coriander, a lot of peppermint and salty-sweet amber. As it dries down, the coriander dissipates, the mint became less fresh and the "ambergris" became more on front. There's some mossy-ness that contributes to the overall fresh greenness of the fragrance but its not something very natural, as expected.

This Is a very unique scent if we compare to the new stuff that came out and even with stuff that came at the time. When this was launched, we had Boss Bottled, Givenchy Pi, CH 212, Au Masculin and Le Mâle, as sweet fragrances. Nothing is similar to this one. This might be more Juvenile than the previous ones, but its fun to wear. Its appealing, sweet but still fresh, and definitely masculine. It kinda gives this peppermint bubblegum vibe to it.

This Is being discontinued and that's why i bought it cause, despite not being a super fan of it, its kinda fun for gym and its discontinued. Also, it hás a great price now. I pay around 30€ for the 100ml. The bottle is unique, a bit tacky, but still nice to have in the collection.

Projection and longevity arent great but not bad either. Kinda médium projection in the first hours and then it stays for 5-6h on skin.

A fun and young scent for the millennials out there to revive their teen ages (like myself)

Sweeeeet
It's pretty good, but it IS super sweet. And perhaps a bit synthetic, although I'm not sure if that word really means anything anymore.

One reviewer I saw on YouTube disliked it, because he said it reminded him of melted chocolate mint ice cream. And now that's the only thing I can think of when I smell it.

Not sure if that's good or bad....

Minty Fragrance. Nice smell, Stylish Bottle. It stays 5 to 6 hours on my skin. Projection is good, Longevity is also good. I get many compliments. But do spray on cloths for more projection.

Please don't become mainstream!
I actually have a problem with scents worn by certain people, in too high a dosage for certain purposes. Admittedly, I exaggerate the dosage of my perfume myself from time to time. This may sound paradoxical and probably is, but I like to smell good????.
However, I don't like it if I'm put into a drawer immediately because of that, so I have a problem with all these mainstream scents. Who wants to smell like every other guy on the street!
The scent itself.
Linear or uncompromising?
Probably it is a matter of interpretation and as always with Paco Rabanne fragrances, he does not appear very quiet or reserved.
Freshly minty, at the same time sweetly oriental after Patchouli it starts and remains so, the entire course of fragrance over. It comes after a good hour, a component slightly reminiscent of a higher quality "Irish moss" added. Not very complex, but never cheap and always fresh-sweet. Even if this is not a perfume criterion for me, it is a real magnet for compliments! But probably only with the right wearer and from my experience also with the Ü30 generation, which is more about the fragrance than the name or the image of the name, for the latter it is too little mainstream. Please stay in this quality where you are, neither niche, nor mainstream, neither too heavy, nor too light! Simply fresh Minty and slightly sweetish without everyone to please!
