Nasty dazzler. If you can't come up with anything substantial, you'd better keep a low profile.
Even if some people here will eat me up now, my opinion of the fragrance is extremely firm.
But one thing at a time.
The top note is awesome. Beautiful citrus fruits as far as the eye or nose can see. If it were as beautiful throughout as the beginning, it would be a dream. But far from it. This beautiful top note is over after 10 minutes. Then comes the Aventus DNA, which is well and truly old hat these days, along with a few independent vibes. Nothing new so far, but by no means a stinker either. But for how long? In my opinion, the fragrance completely runs out of steam after 20 minutes, leaving less substance than a thin cologne scent. It falls light years short of the typical erotic echoes and presence of its brothers. In my eyes, this is a complete failure right from the start. Far too little presence, and also far too little independence. If a fragrance has no presence at all, it has failed a thousand times more in my eyes than a fragrance that is simply exhausting. You can still argue about the smell, but what do I want to buy it for if it ends after 20 minutes? I think many people will agree with me here. Gradually at least. When I smelled the fragrance after opening, the beautiful top note was gone and nothing was left, it was already clear to me that if, after an eternity of waiting, it does make it to the stores, it will soon be over. Somehow, after 10-15 minutes, I suspected that people would love it because they had to wait for ages, sometimes even being dazzled by the top note, only to gradually realize that it was a definite pipe burner. I have the freedom to say this openly and freely, so to speak, because Meiniger was sold again relatively quickly. Anyone who is still in the situation of wanting to get rid of their own will hold back for the time being, but anyone who has already ticked off this topic will agree with me.
I predict that once the initial hype is over and the blind buying dies down, this candidate will quickly disappear again. The souk will stagnate at a medium to high level, because anyone who has taken more than 5 minutes will have quickly made up their mind - in this case usually a bad one - and won't spend a penny on such garbage.
Even if I've been mercilessly harsh here, I stand by it. Apart from the top note, there's unfortunately nothing nice to say about this nasty blender.
My confidence when buying blind was definitely belied. But can you call this a tactic of the manufacturer? Waiting a long time after the announcement to get people excited about it. They should have been laying rather than cackling. Period.
Out. The end. End of the day.

Ich kann Haltbarkeit 1 nachvollziehen. Wie möchte man hier skalieren? Gibt man dem Duft eine 7 wie hier, müsste ein Amouage Interlude einfach ne 35 bekommen. Bewerte ich einen Duft mkt 12 h Haltbarkeit mit 10, kann ein Duft mit 1-2h Haltbarkeit hslt nur ne 1-2 bekommen. Zumindest in meiner Welt. Und bei mir war es ähnlich... Kopfnote 5 min, dann direkter shortcut in den aventus-artgen drydown, der auch nach ner Stunde hautnah wird und nach weiteren 60min ausklingt.
Duft mit 2 ist etwas hart. Grundsätzlich riecht die DNA ja gut, und die Kopfnote ist spitze. Ich habe ihn mit 6.5 bewertet. Abwertung ggü. Aventus/cdnim/Explorer aufgrund der nunmehr totgerittenen DNA und entsprechender nicht vorhandener Kreativität.
In diesem Sinne, danke fürs mutige, aneckende aber in weiten Teilen passende berechtigte Statement!👍
In diesem Sinne
Herzlichen Dank

Aber wenn man bei dem bei Haltbarkeit und Sillage eine 1 gibt.... Sorry das kann ich nicht ernst nehmen 😅.
Duft Bewertung von H/S Bewertung trennen..... machen leider viel zu Wenige.
