Malibù - Party in the Bay Simone Andreoli 2018

Sorry, even if I make myself unpopular now. I somehow don't understand the hype around this fragrance. I wanted to love it too. The name sounded promising, evoking vacation, beach, and party. I first ordered a sample from Pafory, and when I tested it for the first time, I actually found it quite good. But something in it bothered me. Something sharp and artificial. When I wore it for the first time in the office, my boss said, "It smells strongly like cleaning products here, like furniture polish." That made everything clear to me. Now I know what bothered me. Probably the lime, which just comes across as artificial to me. I then asked my husband if he smelled it the same way. Unfortunately, yes... and now I don't dare to wear it anymore. I will probably wear the rest of the sample at home while cleaning. Then I might still get some vacation vibes ;). I'm sure many see it differently. But fragrances are a matter of taste.
