Just arrived today and sprayed it on right away. First on the test strip and then on myself after showering. It’s 32 degrees and it smells heavenly.
I don’t know Ganimed, so I can’t make a comparison. To me, Masa smells like a very fresh fruit iced tea with lemon and mango, nice and cool and not overwhelming at this temperature. As it develops, a lovely, spicy leather note comes in that nicely rounds off the fragrance experience.

I definitely perceive Masa as unisex and see its strength in spring and summer. I will post an update on longevity and sillage once I have worn it for a few days.

The scent starts for me, in a positive way, with fermenting fruits. Spices make their way to the surface and a nice creaminess joins in. It reminds me a bit of fruit soaked in rum in a wooden barrel.
Very beautiful scent that can really be worn well on cooler or rainy days, as it exudes a certain coziness.

I like it very much.

You stroll along the beach, the day is warm but the sky is gray. The salty sea air wafts into your nose, damp rocks in the background and driftwood richly covered with moss in the sand.

This is what Atlas smells like to me. A great aquatic fragrance perfect for spring and summer. The longevity is very good, I can still smell the scent days after wearing it in my clothes.
I love aquatics and Atlas is the best of its kind for me so far.

I am not really a big fan of rose as a scent, as it can often come across as quite old-fashioned.
However, after reading many reviews and watching videos about this fragrance from the series, I decided to get it for myself.

Right after spraying it on, I notice a rose that is very interesting to me. Pleasantly fresh, sweet, and really not old-fashioned or reminiscent of grandma at all. After a few minutes, a nice spiciness joins in, but unfortunately, there is also a smell that makes this fragrance unbearable for me. It smells very strong, almost piercingly chemical, like plastic/tire rubber.

This smell also lingers for a long time and almost overshadows everything I really like about this fragrance.
I will let it sit for a few weeks, hoping that it will improve, as I have read a few times that Lataffa fragrances often go on sale too quickly without completing the maturation process.

Update: The scent has now developed very positively. The rubber/plastic notes are gone. I’m looking forward to wearing it now.
