Saying it through the flower
The magical thing about language is that a written word offers a strange freedom of interpretation with omitted adjectives, missing context and free pronunciation - Sport / Sport... / Sport! / Sport? - allows.
This secret formula of 2016 had me pondering for a long time.
My first comment in the forum was about this fragrance puzzle.
Well, good things take time.
First of all, I would like to praise the skill of that tinkerer's soul.
This ambiguity of the fragrance, the expansion of the floral, a disguised irony and the clean coding of certain impure thoughts requires a trained nose, which unfortunately is not mentioned.
I therefore ask Groupe Bogart to reveal the creator, who deserves applause.
In the history of fragrances, there have been many representatives of male flowers who have explored the game of "catch me", just on the edge of what is still acceptable.
The trick is to always be confident, composed, nonchalant and playfully wooing these flowers.
Not an easy task, one gesture too many and the magic fizzles out and pitiable pastiche makes for twisted eyes.
This flacon evokes the minimalist color scheme of the 1980-1981 period, one of the most exciting shifts in pop history.
The weariness of the disco era, the desire for clarity and the breakthrough of electronic coolness reflect the awakening after an exaggerated party of analog proportions.
But the hedonistic celebration should now continue in a more synthetic and somehow nasty vain way.
For the first time, Lapidus allows us to peek inside the iconic bottle.
designed in 1987, he is now allowed to jump backwards some seven years.
Like a prequel to the main movie.
The grooved body is colorless and crystal clear.
"After all, you alone awaken the genie in the bottle, my sportsman. No false tricks here!"
The cannula is basic red, as are the lettering, the spray head and the ribs of the otherwise white finish.
Memories of tight-fitting, straight-cut suits or correspondingly purist sportswear give us hope that timelessness is making a comeback.
Ingenious advertising.
The sporty back again.
But now a pole in the hands, the high jump over conventional barriers.
The incidence of light and the shading of the athlete's skin are strange, they reflect the basic essence of the fragrance: cool, supposedly bright with shadowy ambiguities.
Well then, on your marks, get set...
Hiss!
A wake-up call.
Nothing here is as it seems!
Although hesperides and green basil simulate the usual apertura, the powerful rosemary immediately masks the naive Mediterranean freshness.
At the same time, a shy floral note resonates.
What kind of sport is meant here?
The typical Lapidus orange blossom immediately enters the scene. Extremely bright and flooded with light.
Salty ambergris, high praise here, spices things up just right. No flat ruining of the fragrance with brute chemistry.
An ingenious way to spread the required freshness of sporty fragrances.
And again, far from it!
Don Juan in the erotic hurdles course, for example?
A flowery potpourri is now getting into the act.
Unlisted, tomboyish jasmine, extremely bright, almost frozen rose, defensive rose geranium with green leaves.
The floral part of a mysterious musk, which becomes more and more physical in the style of the 1970s, is somewhat muffled.
The looks in the sports studio give an idea of the reactions.
Thanks to the lingering rosemary and 1980s nutmeg, the looks are sympathetic and approving.
This brownish spice emphasizes the greenish side of the heart note and perfectly balances the sweetness of the flowers.
And now something magnificent enters, the shady side of the bright bouquet.
Quiet and fleeting incense, which could not have been better dosed.
Although the base is woody and earthy, it remains nebulous and gives the basic floral tendency of the fragrance the necessary support so that it does not get completely stuck in the flower vase.
A beautiful labdanum provides the leathery nudge, a little kick with a wink.
But all in all, the florals set the tone.
Towards the end, the slightly salty ambergris becomes noticeable as the flowers fade away.
Together with the labdanum, the two components leave the changing room of the gym.
The floral Mosch business card will remain discreetly in your memory.
Wow, sporty to call such a fragrance "sport"!
So far I haven't had any complaints when wearing this challenge.
The fragrance accompanies me in a very cheerful and pleasant way.
And has even earned me some nice comments.
I can wear this light greenish liquid perfectly outside of sports.
Rarely have I been able to enjoy such a casual fragrance with character lately.
In terms of the basic tone, the fragrance reminds me of Nino Cerruti pour Homme Eau de Toilette, which also played with a not quite clear florality, plus the naughtiness of my highly esteemed Kouros Eau de Toilette
Stray with bouquet of flowers on dear?
I am always grateful to Lapidus for precisely this blurring of intentions, sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the creation.
And here it is more than successful.
Finally, something historical.
While I had initially watched the abrupt end of the disco era with the poppy Disco Demolition Night in Chicago's Comiskey Park on July 12, 1979 on television as a child, I was delighted with the counterattack from Spain just one year later.
It boggled my mind that grown adults in the freest country in the world, who harbored a dull contempt for a danceable musical genre that had peacefully and voluntarily united so many people of all backgrounds, had to use such a creepy means of destruction to express their resentment.
Why not just ignore these records and let them collect dust in the store? No, something had to be set on fire here, something that shook the foundations of their world.
The hits of the analog disco genre then plummeted down the charts.
But he who laughs last, laughs best...
in 1980, a still young Pedro Marín from Barcelona slammed an "up to here and no further" against this evil gang with his album of the same name.
Disco now became cooler, more synthetic, poppier and was given new names. But it remained what it had always been, a relaxed dance style for many. Nothing highfalutin, just ready-to-consume fun for a few moments.
How does all this fit in with this fragrance?
Well, the one video for the song "Aire" has a stage decoration as a backdrop that fits the bottle like a glove.
White and red stripes, plus Pedro's wardrobe - white trousers and shirt, red tie.
And sporty aerobics athletes dancing in the background.
Opinions are still divided today about the singer's ambiguity.
But he, a now respectable artist of great pictures, is probably quite unconcerned about that.
And it is precisely this attitude that Lapidus pour Homme Sport demands of you.
Are you strong enough to take on the flowers?
I, at least, have mastered the challenge.
Let others worry about flowery blurriness!
