Is there an antidote?!?!?

Today I took the plunge. I went into a turquoise store in moderate temperatures but with a perceived humidity of over 100% and put myself through a stress test.

Left hand M7 (I'll report on that later) and right hand Kouros.

I had already read a lot of negative things about Kouros here, and I must say I can only agree.

Gathering all my courage, I contaminated the back of my hand with a spray of that stuff.

Too much!! Way too much!!

Toilet cleaner? A very fitting description!! Urine note? You couldn't express it better! A very biting smell of chemical cleaners? That's true too! Long-lasting? Unfortunately way too good! Annoying? Exactly!!

Surely an antidote must be produced just in case. Right!?!

I am now richer by one experience. Now even the soap has capitulated.

To all lovers of this fragrance composition, I want to say that I do not want to rule out that with the right skin chemistry and type, the whole thing could create a coherent overall picture. Since the product has been on the market for so long, the fan community can't be that small. The scent is definitely extraordinary!

For something like this, it's best to quickly layer it with a "sweet bomb" from the neighboring shelf :-D
