Tendenza Van Gils Eau de Toilette

Childhood Memories
By chance, I stumbled upon this fragrance during my youth when I asked my uncle what scent he was wearing.. being the kind of uncle he is, he immediately gifted me the bottle.
After years of desperate searching (I lost it during a move :D), I finally found it again and now realize why I loved it so much as a child..
The scent begins with an overwhelming burst of notes that are definitely fresh, fruity, and soon after, very spicy. After a while, cinnamon and other spicy notes dominate. It is entertaining from start to finish, and you feel comfortable throughout.
The fact that it is incredibly unknown (not a single perfume store I inquired at knew it) and yet has a certain complexity made it one of the few fragrances I used for years.
The sillage and longevity are catastrophic, but I didn't know anything about that as a child and teenager :D
What's nice is that despite the long-discontinued sales, you can still occasionally find bottles of the fragrance for purchase.
This scent remains a beautiful memory in my collection.
