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!
Fragrance disaster describes it 100%! I'm really glad you saved me from a blind buy! Terrible :-( there are better fruity deodorants from the DM store brand ;-)
(1) After reading the scent notes, it's clear to me that the fragrance wouldn't fare any better on me either. (2) Floyd already spoiled the joke about "Implosion" for me; it's my own fault for reading your always very enjoyable comment so late. (3) I guess the wood aromas refer to what I've read: that the strawberry flavor in cheap strawberry yogurts is made from wood shavings. Somehow, when modified to be nature-identical, it ends up tasting strawberry-like.
I guess I'm an advanced enthusiast then. I perceive the scent completely differently and I totally agree with MrsBeGe. But perception is subjective, after all. Luckily.
Combination of banana-raspberry-strawberry and everything artificial! I don't think this HubbaBubba explosion needs to reach customers either in the bottle or on latex. Your wonderful "preventive comment" probably ensures that. Very nice contribution!
Did you test it on your skin? One could think we tried two different fragrances. The fruity explosion disappeared from my skin after just a few minutes, leaving only sandalwood, similar to LB intense.
Thanks for the warning! The gummy bear scent is described very well - I hope someone can add the smell of fruit-flavored condoms, as I'm not familiar with that...
