I like Creed VIW and have been considering it for a while. This scent came up that a lot of people recommend as getting close to the VIW DNA, so I was intrigued.
I blind bought a bottle and I was quite excited to try it out hoping this would be like a CDNIM-type of hit.
The opening I was hit was a blast of lemon and as it dried down I was getting hits of coconut mixed in. It's an okay scent in the air but up close it smells like cleaning detergent with coconut. I wore it a couple times to the gym and i could smell a lime/coconut bubble around me the whole time.
It's just not for me though at all. It's something I might keep for the occasional beach day as in the air it smells very playful but not something I'll reach for very often.
It's similar to VIW in the notes but VIW is just a much better scent - there's no comparison. This smells juvenile in comparison to VIW. For £30 though can't complain too much. It performs much better than VIW.
