For €5.95, you can sometimes barely get a döner anymore.
Caline offers a very good dupe of the legendary
Le Mâle Eau de Toilette for exactly this price.
I myself have never owned the original, but my best friend's brother was crazy about it.
It was his signature scent, so I smelled it a lot when I was 12, 13, etc.
And what I perceived is quite similar to what Caline offers at a low price.
How close it is to the original can be better assessed by others.
Infinite Navy is fresh, spicy, classic, and has a pleasantly sweet drydown.
I find it hard to pick out individual notes.
I can recognize lavender, cinnamon, vanilla, and tonka, but I have to pass on the rest.
It all sounds very delicious, but one must consider that this is a fragrance from the 90s.
This means it will smell dated to many.
It's not
Sauvage Eau de Toilette or
Eros Eau de Toilette, it's a classic.
Somehow it also smells quite soapy, which personally doesn't appeal to me very much.
Therefore, the fragrance itself gets 6/10 points.
That said, the scent is very masculine and logically quite mature.
Generally, it's more suited for older gentlemen, but since anyone can wear what they want, I can also imagine it on a younger man.
Although the scent isn't really my thing, the perfume earns plus points in terms of performance.
It really performs well for hours.
I noticed the projection well for at least 2 hours.
Even after that, it doesn't become skin-close, but it gradually fades and you have a light scent bubble around you.
My conclusion: if you love these older, classic fragrances and especially
Le Mâle Eau de Toilette, then this is an interesting option.
Personally, I don't like it, but if you liked the description, just stop by DM and test it yourself.
