Fight Club White Reyane Tradition

fight club white is my seventh fragrance from Reyane Tradition.
Not all of them made it to the display case; one was even banished to the comb shelf in the guest toilet. So I was all the more curious about the scent, which comes in a stylish plastic bell shaped like a white boxing glove. The whole thing is well made, but the cheap print on the bottle above the thumb abruptly ends the design attempt. However, there are a thousand other manufacturers who are less creative.
On the skin, it truly lives up to its name. A colorful bouquet of citrus notes delivers a solid hook to the nose. This, combined with lavender and rosemary, creates a spectacular opening. I also detect a distinct note of pineapple at the start.
The heart notes are a colorful mix of garden herbs that develop nicely from the top notes. With this fresh scent, which some contemporaries might mistakenly perceive as a room spray from an English country house, it has earned my favor. But I also enjoy "Bowling Green" by Geoffrey Beene. And to stick with the boxer's imagery - this mix dances gracefully around the nose.
It then replaces this freshness with a somewhat crude mix of "everything that is good for a base note" - at this point, it feels a bit arbitrary and a little too woody for my nose, as if the floor of the ring were solely made of fir.
The longevity is certainly above average, and the sillage is quite appropriate for an English gentleman's fight: present without being intrusive. Anyone expecting blood, sweat, and a backyard boxing hall will be disappointed.
All in all: a great fragrance that will find its fans.
