Surprisingly Creamy Citrus Scent - Definitely Unisex
At the beginning, in the first two minutes, it strongly reminds me of Cologne water. For me, it evokes positive memories. Freshly cleaned apartment, freshly showered, fresh laundry.
Then it becomes creamy and remains increasingly creamy until the end, a remarkable 8-9 hours later. I don't know any other citrus scent that does this.

In detail:
This one is not a dry lemon or grapefruit scent. Rather, it starts off spicy in the sense of Cologne water, which is probably due to the lavender. Not soft, not floral, but herbal. It's pleasantly refreshing, a bit like standing in a garden amidst lavender and lemon trees.
Then comes the aforementioned creaminess. Amber and musk probably manage to elevate the citrus fruits to such a soft, creamy level. There’s nothing sharp that stands out, which is (unfortunately) often the case with citrus scents. No, here everything is balanced. Nothing stands out, everything blends into a lemon-bergamot-grapefruit-musk cream. Like a luxurious body lotion. Quite potent though, not a faint breeze.

After that, it doesn’t change much anymore. The spicy freshness from the beginning disappears within the first few minutes. The citrus-musk cream becomes even creamier towards the end, and a hint of vanilla can be detected after about five hours. By no means sweet. Rather soft, pleasant, deep.

The longevity is fantastic for a citrus scent. Where others fade after an hour, this one projects for about eight hours. After that, it can still be smelled, but only with the nose close to the wrist.

Who can wear it: everyone! The first scent where I truly think THIS is unisex. Neither spicy-masculine nor sweet-feminine. Rather spicy-soft-creamy. Simply beautifully composed.

Neroli, lemon, and grapefruit with strong performance. Very fresh, but unfortunately also very simple.

Unsweetened, strong citrus scent. Works for me only at 30 degrees and above. Those looking for pure citrus will be happy here.

Extremely fresh, slightly synthetic citrus scent. Unfortunately very linear and consistently the same. Reminds me a bit of Nimm2 lemon.

Zesty lemon meets elegant neroli in the base. It becomes warmer because of that. The first hybrid that completely convinces me. Top H&S
