Synthetic flower - bubblegum vibes - very sweet resin - questionable name - "pass"
The Nose Behind #7 for me and unfortunately another one that I can't warm to or simply doesn't deliver for the money. But one thing at a time ...
The fragrance starts with a pungent floral-synthetic mix with a creamy mandarin and an already present jasmine. I can't hear the "aquatic notes" at any (!) point. Maybe on a test strip? At least not on my skin.
After about 30-60 minutes, a strong, soapy-sweet rose joins in, flanked by spices. After 60-90 minutes, the fragrance has already reached its "peak" - unfortunately for the worse, because now all you can smell is a creamy, sticky-sweet floral chewing gum. Unfortunately, the fragrance does not develop much further over the next 3-4 hours.
You are actually happy that after ~4h you finally get some sandalwood, unfortunately it can't assert itself through the mix of floral synthetics and sweet resin with a shot of musk. There is a hint of patchouli, but unfortunately it is rather distracting and makes the whole mess even bigger.
Similar to "Miami South Beach", I can't get anything out of the naming of the fragrance. No matter which Bangkok we were both in, but one thing is certainly missing here: the spice. And that would have been really good for the fragrance overall.
The fragrance is therefore only mediocre at best for me. Unisex? Yes, BUT I definitely see it more on women. For me, it's a leisure or evening fragrance in fall or early spring.
175€ for so much floral synthetics with a lot of sweetness? Not worth the money.
Once again a "pass" from me for TNB fragrance #7 (3 more to come).
