Pina Colada
I stumbled across the bottle here by chance and its design caught my attention. The fragrance pyramid was also interesting, so I bought a bottle from a nice perfumer.
While I was waiting, I was of course already browsing the internet to find out where I could get the fragrance if I really wanted it, because it's not that easy. I now also receive newsletters from an Italian online perfumery :-) But you probably know that.
Now to the fragrance: What was written in the statements is true. This fragrance smells like Pina Colada. For me, however, the pineapple comes to the fore and stays. The other fragrance notes are not (yet) apparent to me. I can only describe the overall impression. Although the pineapple dominates for me, the fragrance is sweet and creamy, less fresh and fruity. Now with the autumn temperatures, it really does evoke vacation and beach feelings.
My real problem with this fragrance is somehow the consistency. A light film of oil formed on my wrist, which I then wiped away because it wasn't absorbed. Even afterwards, the scent was still clearly perceptible to those around me. Was it because of the sample? The fragrance was so strong that I feared I might get a headache at 30°C on the beach. It was too much, too intense. In the end, I washed it off. But even then, the smell was still clearly perceptible. Now finally in a pleasant, fresh dose.
The silicone strap of my watch must also have been affected, because today - sniffing the watch - I am writing the following review: sweet pineapple, Caribbean feeling, delicious. I'll keep this fragrance in mind, but I think I can unsubscribe from the Italian newsletter.
And my watch probably needs a new strap.
