Pineapple fruit roll up

On my skin, the opening is incredibly sweet fruit, and I thought pineapple (probably influenced by the name and tagline, though I think the combination of mango + lime is probably close to pineapple, and all these tropical fruits are bouquets of overlapping terpenes, lactones, etc anyway) but fruit roll-ups if they had a ~*tropical*~ flavor. Over time it gets less sweet and more nondescript tropical fruit. I don’t smell guava, or coconut, although the fragrance does become a little creamier over time and I don’t smell the sandalwood either though I can tell the fragrance is grounded in *something* and it doesn’t smell like it doesn’t have a woody base, if that makes sense. The hibiscus comes out more and more in the drydown with a tart aromatic edge while the sweetness dies down and 17hrs later I get very faint and not very sweet hibiscus mango skin.

It's actually a shame, because the hibiscus mango skin is absolutely wonderful.... but the first 8-9hrs are a wild ride to sit through if that's what you're looking for.

Sprayed on from the tester bottle at Ministry of Scent.

Very cool tropical perfume

This is a great Summer scent, very tropical and fruity, watery and sunny. This is not a fruit blast like erba pura, which I don‘t like, it‘s more like a perfect balance that isn‘t too fruity. Like the name says, sunplosion, it got some nice solar notes which aren‘t listed but i see it that way. If you like mango scents this is for you. I can only recommend this.

Absolutely Fruity Short Comment

As if I had anticipated that a fragrance with a pseudo-fanciful name could not compete with its big brothers "Malibù - Party in the Bay," "Leisure in Paradise," and "Deep Island"...

No, it really can't.
"Sunplosion" is, for me, quite subjectively: a fragrance catastrophe.
How often have I read on Parfumo about the evil tuberose chewing gum and couldn't detect it.
How often about fruity sludge. Sweet sugary stuff. And I wondered because I experienced some fragrances quite differently myself.

However, "Sunplosion" unites all these embarrassing characteristics within itself. There is really nothing that could make this fragrance pleasing to me - except for the bottle and my exceedingly friendly sharing organizer.
Right from the start/ At the beginning/ In the opening/ Recently also: Initially, I am overwhelmed with brutal waves of the most artificial chewing gum aromas. The entire world of HubbaBubba in one fragrance. Even my Flav Drops smell significantly more natural. But I suspect that fruit condoms smell exactly like this; I saw them just the day before yesterday while shopping in the banana-raspberry-strawberry combo. Because the chewing gum aroma in "Sunplosion" is so completely, so unreservedly artificial, it does have a certain artistic quality. "Create a fragrance that smells like fruit, in which you cannot identify a single tiny fruit" - that must have been the clearly formulated task. And it has been executed flawlessly. This artificial fruit soup is a bit disgusting on the skin, especially because it is so gum-like. But perhaps there are lovers of such fragrance directions, like fruit industry interns, who are really fed up with healthy stuff. They might want something like this. Or people with fruit allergies. Or dieters who remember the many cream yogurts they have eaten and crave a touch of nostalgia. Cream yogurts, however, smell much better, honestly.

Here it is: nothing.
Wood aroma? That is probably only perceivable for advanced fantasists even after two hours. Just like the "Aloha State of Mind" - you simply have to imagine that. Techniques in lucid dreaming can be found online. I think: The fragrance is simply artificial-fruity-disgustingly sweet. That's it. Also with the comment. (Hub)By(Bub)By!

What do I smell here at the...

... market in Delhi. I stand in front of a stall and can't close my mouth in awe of the huge pyramid of fresh ripe mangoes that exudes a captivating aroma. From the flower stall next door comes the scent of hibiscus and the freshness of limes, while the aroma of freshly opened coconuts wafts in from the surrounding stalls. The stalls themselves add a hint of woodiness to the mix. I don't know which Hindu fragrance I should thank for this experience, but I’ll just do it; someone will surely feel addressed.

Upon applying this fragrance, you first get mangoes and more mangoes in your nose. These are given a slight freshness by the limes. The coconut water, guava, and hibiscus contribute to a fine fruit cocktail. This is rounded off with a woody accent.

It's well-suited for leisure, parties, or even vacations, for both ladies and gentlemen.

The longevity is good, and the sillage is nothing to hide.

If you love mangoes and enjoy fresh fruity scents, this is just right for you.

fruitplosion

Yesterday, without intending to buy anything specific, I found myself in the only niche perfumery in my city to browse and sniff around a bit. At some point, I ended up at Simone Andreoli. I had heard and read so much about "Malibu" and "Leisure" - quickly tested them on my skin. Okay, they smelled just as the majority of reviewers described them. "Leisure" didn't blow me away, and "Malibu" smelled almost exactly like Virgin Island Water, which I already have. But what was that between the two fragrances on the shelf? Sunplosion. I had only heard about it once and had no memory of the description. So I sprayed it on and....... wow! That was exactly what I had been searching for months! Namely, a not too sweet, mango-dominated summer scent. It initially reminded me of Cruz del Sur II, which I had recently ordered as a decant. Wow, I thought, let's see how sunplosion performs on my skin. I went next door to the café and chatted for over an hour with another perfume enthusiast, while of course repeatedly sniffing my arm. Yes, you are the one who is coming home with me today (no, not the guy!), no matter how long (or how short) you last. But as an EdP intense, the longevity can't be that bad, I thought. However, that didn't quite hold true throughout the day. The scent weakens relatively quickly and becomes closer to the skin, lasting about 4-5 hours on me. And I have the impression that it hardly projects. I can only smell it faintly, even when I spray generously. That makes me a bit sad. Caution: the liquid is slightly oily!
I understand the negative reviews, or I know what is meant by this "artificial fruit sweetness" or "gummy bear scent" and that some people find it anything but appealing as a perfume. But I like this special fruit cocktail, and to me, Sunplosion doesn't smell "cheap." In my nose, the fruits don't come across as artificial or synthetic. I find the mango and guava to be quite natural. The light coconut note fits perfectly, and the hibiscus flower adds a very delicate floral note.
After about half an hour, the extremely overwhelming, fruity "squeaky" aspect subsides a bit. The sandalwood could have been dosed a bit higher for my taste (I love sandalwood). It gives the fragrance a slight warmth and depth. The scent remains sweet and fruity in my nose until the end, with a very pleasant sandalwood note, giving me beautiful Caribbean vibes with delicious mango. I have finally found what I was looking for. And all by chance. No, sunplosion is definitely not comparable to Cruz del Sur II, as the latter is much more complex, richer, and stronger. But I am happy with my choice, and that is the main thing. By the way, the fragrance is great for layering. For those who enjoy that, like I do, here are two tips: with Fico di Amalfi, it becomes a bit greener and more herbaceous, and with Blackberry & Bay (J. Malone), it gets a slightly tart berry note. I will definitely try out more combinations. But aside from that, I also really enjoy wearing sunplosion solo.
