The first Tom Ford that disappoints!

I am really a big Tom Ford fan (See picture)
I think he has then with his first drop (Oud Wood, Tobacco Vanilla) set a standard that inspires the niche world to this day.
Full of joy so I currently rattle off the Cologneartigen Private blend fragrances.
The Sole di Positano is one of them.
To the fragrance: After spraying on comes directly a floral-fresh note to the nose, which smells a very small little Synthetisch and somehow Unfertig.
But I think nothing of it and give the drydown the next chance. Finally after 15-20 minutes again dran gerochen and ? .... Still the same floral freshness that just smells strongly of ylang ylang and jasmine. This continues so the next few hours until it completely evaporates.
Sole di Positano is for me very linear and unfortunately not at all complex which would not be bad but since we are talking about 150-300 euros, you should be able to perceive something more than ylang ylang and some jasmine. To compare to the other private blend fragrances, this one unfortunately does not come close.
Each of the citrus fragrances of Tom Ford has its raison d'être.
The Mandarino di Amalfi which has a perfect balance between fresh mint, orange blossom and tangerine.
The Neroli Portofino Forte which is a Cologne 4711 on steroids and I would always prefer it to a Cologen because it lasts much longer.
The Costa Azzurra which reflects that salty sea breeze.

But the Sole di Positano just smells floral fresh with a touch synthetic.
The Sillage vorallem is unfortunately very bad with me, you get him only to smell if you go very close with the nose.
In all, unfortunately, the first Tom Ford fragrance that has disappointed me but fortunately there are enough others in which I enjoy.

I thank you if you have read to the end :)
