Lime and Bergamot and Aldehydes, Oh MY!
I like lime in the topnotes of fragrances, be it natural smelling or synthetic like lime candy. In the case of Curve Chill, the lime is more synthetic than natural; it reminds me of lime flavored candy and drink mixes. I love it with the aldehydes, although I could see where many people could find this too synthetic or cloying. Maybe that explains some of the lower ratings here...I am not sure.

Like so many fragrances with a strong citrus topnote, the longevity on this is not so great. I get about an hour of the lime and aldehydes, another hour of peppery middles notes, and then about an hour of the basenotes. After that it is gone on my skin, even with lotion applied first.

This Curve flanker can be had online for very cheap. If you like lime, and don't mind synthetic, this is a good deal for a casual summer fragrance. I paid less than $14 USA for my 4.2 oz tester, so if you hate it, it's not a big loss as a blind buy. Me? I wore it a lot this past summer with shorts and t-shirt.

Better to Avoid This Chill-Out Zone
I don't know where iParfumerie gets their samples from, but they are certainly not everyday scents. Unfortunately, they mostly offer cheap, quick-shot junk like Mexx, celebrity fragrances, or in this case, Curve Chill for Men. I believe it’s an American discount brand, quite popular among teenagers there and also very inexpensive. Perhaps comparable to Bruno Banani here in Germany. Unfortunately, Curve Chill even falls below the low BB standard. A pretty terrible perfume, even for fragrance newbies and teenagers, far from a recommendation. More on the level of Axe!

CC doesn’t smell really ordinary, but it is very unnatural, sticky synthetic, and also indecisive. No wonder with 4 perfumers involved. But I think they could have brought in another 4 - this baby has already fallen into the well. Citrusy aldehyde top note - piercing and almost reminiscent of chlorine. Creepy and perhaps acceptable for lifeguards. Then a bit of pepper comes in, and if that’s supposed to be tea, it’s children’s tea from a plastic can with a big rubber aftertaste. That certainly wasn’t the intention, and one wonders how it passed quality control. I definitely don’t judge a perfume just based on its price or reputation, but here all the warnings are justified. The dry down could vaguely be identified as musk, but it’s hard to tell.

Bottle: reminiscent of fakes and KiK perfumes.
Sillage: only minimal presence during sports and good circulation.
Longevity: even 5 hours would be asking too much!

Absolutely not a problem that Curve perfumes are not found in Germany. What is offered here is underground, artificial, and more likely to irritate than to chill!

Many Perfumers Ruin the Scent
Well, I don't know...

What on earth sometimes goes through the minds of the clients of a perfume creation?

How can you put four perfumers together and approve such a product for production?

There are scents that paint pictures. There are scents that transport you to foreign worlds. With some, you feel comfortable, safe, or just good.
There are a few that trigger nausea or headaches at the first sniff.

Curve Chill for Men fits none of these associations.
In my perception of fragrances, it is the most unnecessary perfume I have ever smelled.
It goes with nothing, it just smells somewhat floral, not even really fresh but neutral.

Please don't ask me why I have it. I would gladly give it away!!!
