The one that isn't talked about...
I'm not much of a comment writer. The first reason is that unfortunately I don't speak German as well as I would like to. That's why I often hold back when it comes to giving my opinion here at Parfumo. I'm gonna have to make an exception for this smell. I am a passionate perfume collector and have an exaggerated amount of different fragrances for my needs. Would rather have less but the collectors know what I mean ;). I can imagine that most collectors feel that way about me. Over 100 bottles, however, are used only if at all a maximum of a dozen.
And as funny as it may seem, by no means are the noblest or most renowned perfumes used in everyday life. There are many in my collection that I really love and don't want to give away, but I know that I will never wear them. Somehow they don't fit me or better said my lifestyle or attitude to life. Thus we come then to the fact that I use mostly fresh smells, aquatics. These fit somehow into (my) everyday life. Among them is Yves Rocher Bois de Gaiac et Genievre. And this scent does exactly his job for me in the mentioned area ! And in my opinion this is better than some brand perfumes which play in the same league and I also own. Compared to other comparable fragrances, I personally do not smell any artificiality here. It smells freshly washed, clean, even like a shower gel, but in a positive sense. Not stabbing. I think you can wear this all year round. I'm in a good mood with this scent. In my opinion, the shelf life is around 4 hours which is sufficient for me. You can spray here whenever you want. The 75 Ml bottle is sold at a discount price although it has nothing to do with discount for me. The collection also includes a deodorant which smells exactly like the perfume and is in the same quality.
Find that Yves Rocher really makes great scents.
So, I wanted to break a lance for this fragrance here, hope I succeeded partially :)
Thanks for reading.

Metallic fresh
The Legend Intense has been in my collection for quite some time. I often smelled the bottle, but never sprayed or wore it. Today was the day. Invited for a barbecue, nice sun, not quite warm but a pleasant temperature. So I thought today would finally be the big day. I love these days where I spray a fragrance "blindly" (it wasn't completely blind, I had sniffed the bottle several times). And what can I say, wow great experience, fresh, fits the weather perfectly, what I noticed most was the metallic note. I haven't read much about it, maybe I'm crazy, but I smell metal. But in a positive sense, maybe I express myself badly :) And this fresh metallic note lasts forever. I've often read that durability and sillage leave a lot to be desired. But I cannot understand that. I sprayed around noon, not too much, 6 splashes, and I perceive it almost permanently on myself. I also received positive comments today. As I said before, durability on skin as well as on clothes and Sillage are really terrific. The scent is masculine, fresh, sporty, leisurely and carefree. Good mood, simply great.
In comparison with Fierce, yes, it goes in the same direction, but I find it a bit better, because of the fresh metal note which I feel much stronger here.
Quite correct in terms of price. Available online for a fair price. Paid around 30€/50Ml.
As for the bottle, I think it matches the fragrance perfectly. Dark metal, feels cold and cool in the hand, just like the fragrance.
In any case, I am convinced and enthusiastic. Thanks for reading
