The Best Summer Fragrance?
This is my first review, so please don't rate too harshly.
I will cover the following topics:
Fragrance
Longevity & Sillage
Bottle
Price-Performance Ratio
Whether I would recommend the fragrance
Fragrance.
The scent smells very high-quality. You feel like you are lying on the beach in Turkey while sipping a cocktail. A lovely mandarin combined with a light note of grapefruit. I would say the mandarin is the most prominent note.
Longevity & Sillage.
Unfortunately, this fragrance is also affected by the problem that it doesn't last long as a summer scent. The sillage is good in the first hour, then it becomes more of an arm's length. If it's windy, those around you may notice it even longer than the mentioned hour of sillage.
Bottle.
Probably the most beautiful bottle from Tom Ford, it resembles the bottle of Roja Elysium Cologne.
Price-Performance Ratio.
The price-performance ratio is a significant downside due to the somewhat weak longevity and sillage. For 100 ML at €240, you probably get one of the best summer fragrances in terms of scent. I would approve a price of around €150-180 for 100 ML, but the name drives the price up a bit.
Still, it's a great summer fragrance that you should test before spending €240, but I do recommend trying it out.

100 ml for 240 euros? I'll take it. It seems to be discontinued. It's also not available at the Tom Ford retailers-at least not where I looked...

I think you can still get it at Breuninger.
