Fluorescent lights, not so much.

You're right about the Kai Porten Beach Club, but to me, it feels more like a grilled, smoky banana association without the original intention of actually capturing the banana scent. I need to try the Bananita. Thanks!
"Yellow. Loud. Artificial art. -
The attempt to create a kind of banana bread in fragrance form can officially be considered a failure."
The banana molecule is a stubborn opponent, one that not only perfumers have struggled with but also yogurt producers, protein powder manufacturers, beverage syrup creators, etc.
While, for example, "strawberry flavor can be more strawberry-like than strawberries," the artificial banana is usually just a shadow of itself. (I would honestly appreciate any of you who can provide counterexamples that could shake my banana worldview.)
But here, the banana is no shadow. On the contrary. It shines. Too brightly. It squeaks too. Of course, too loudly. It has hints of peanut butter that unnecessarily emphasize its poolside snack sweetness. For me, this is cruel.
