Limited Recommendation
I was eagerly anticipating the line from R Cosmetics. Especially for men, there is yawning boredom in drugstores when it comes to grooming products and perfumes.
The line comes in a cool black design and offers everything for men, from deodorant and perfume to oils and creams.

About the Scent
The perfume itself did not blow me away; one must be honest about that. It is fresh-citrusy with a woody base - it leans a bit towards Bleu de Chanel, but you can quite clearly sense the affordable price here. It smells good but not particularly special, seamlessly fitting into the drugstore fragrances. The longevity, in my opinion, is quite weak. There isn't much more to say because the scent doesn't offer anything beyond that. It is the typical, pleasing, citrusy men's fragrance for that freshly showered feeling.

When is it worth the money anyway?
I wouldn't necessarily consider this perfume in isolation. In the end, it is primarily a range of cosmetic products, all of which feature this quite pleasant and fresh scent. These products are really high quality for little money, and the scent fits very well. The perfume is then just this scent of the product line in isolation - which it didn't necessarily need. I would rather buy other items from the line alone. However, it is quite interesting for those who like it when shampoo, cream, deodorant, and perfume all have the same scent. For this, one would have to take out a loan at Chanel, but with R, it is affordably possible.

Bleu de Chanel for €15 from the drugstore. Quite nice for anyone looking for an affordable alternative. Melon, grapefruit, mint? Not here.

Freshie at drugstore level and sillage average. Not everyone should release a perfume if they have nothing to do with it, but better than iced tea :P

Drugstore mid-range. Okay for teens. Blue shower gel worlds like 90s Hugo Boss. Individual notes barely recognizable. Not even close to Bleu Chanel.

Really not a good scent. Most notes are not detectable in the nose and overall it's very overpowering. There are better alternatives.

Well, what can I say, I should have read the reviews beforehand. Exactly as described. Typical drugstore scent. Boring and poor sillage. What a shame.
