Heavenly
This fragrance flies so much under the radar. Really wonderful what Gulf Orchid delivers here.
A buttery-soft, creamy-spicy fragrance that remains gently fruity even in the drydown. A very restrained sweetness is complemented by a hint of smoke.
The whole is enveloped by a tobacco note that I can hardly describe. It is definitely not very pronounced, rather subtle and very well nuanced. The tobacco note is a little reminiscent of pipe tobacco with a very minimal chocolatey character.
To be honest, I'm surprised that smoke made it into the fragrance description. I find
Sweet Heaven Tobacco less smoky and spicy and much more creamy and spicy...in a wonderfully unobtrusive way.
The fragrance is well suited for the fall and winter season, but can also be worn on a warm summer evening - but then tends to be worn on special occasions.
Sweet Heaven Tobacco is not an overpowering fragrance. But if you wear a fragrance like this, you don't want to be announced by perfume - no, you want to be discovered.
The longevity is okay, after about 2.5 hours it becomes skin-deep, and after 8 hours it runs out of steam.
The bottle is first class. The atomizer could do with a little more flow, but that's manageable.
The P/L is excellent. The fragrance smells 5x as expensive. For currently 35€,Sweet Heaven Tobacco is even a candidate for a blind buy in my opinion.

Desire and reality
Do you know Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson?
He is a legend in show wrestling.
At some point, however, he unfortunately started acting in Hollywood films.
Aventus is a brilliant fragrance in its original intention... which could not be further from "niche" by now.
In my opinion, the hype has done the fragrance a disservice. As a rarely smelled niche fragrance, it would probably be a great & interesting experience to smell it in public. But unfortunately, every second person now carries the Aventus DNA. Well, and this is where the desire for the "extraordinary" collapses in the face of reality.
Objectively speaking, however, the fragrance is really good.
Smoke, citrus, slightly sweet, absolutely interesting. The pineapple is not over the top, but you have to like it.
Unfortunately, H&S vary greatly. Shouldn't happen at such a proud price, to be honest.
Hopefully this fragrance will go out of fashion at some point...so that we can rediscover it in 50 years' time - with an open mind

Starry clear
This fragrance paints its own picture.
A freshness like a dip in the Adriatic Sea.
A drydown like a summer night on the rocky beach of Kvarner Bay.
My favorite fragrance.
The
Colonia C.L.U.B. takes the DNA of 
Colonia Eau de Cologne and refreshes it, but in a very sophisticated, modern and yet timeless way. The fragrance opens more herbaceous than citrusy and develops in a slightly woody direction. It remains very airy and light and, in my opinion, this is precisely why it has such a high-quality effect. While other summer fragrances in the DD like to "wash out" everything with a certain creaminess, Colonia C.L.U.B., like most other fragrances from AdP, always remains beautifully clear and differentiated, it never becomes muddy or intrusive.
The longevity is fine, as is the sillage.
In terms of price, the fragrance is available from as little as €0.55 per ml, so the P/L is really good.
The sun has long since set and it is still pleasantly warm. I breathe in and out to the rhythm of the small waves breaking on the stone beach. A faint breeze cools my face.
I wish you were here.

I should have known
A sweet fragrance that is absolutely suitable for the masses.
Strong pineapple that lasts a long time. The apple note and the DNA itself remind me of
Y Eau de Parfum
Not much happens in the course of the fragrance, the DD becomes quite creamy, but that's it.
You can wear this fragrance (almost) all the time.
I can well understand why it is so popular.
Aaaabut...
For me personally, it is clearly too sweet, creamy, dense and unfortunately also too synthetic.
I had hoped for a much more airy fragrance. This one quickly gives me a headache. But I should have known, because I'm simply not a fan of pineapple and theAventus DNA.
The bottle is beautifully made, but the atomizer is rather mediocre.
The longevity is really good.
The sillage is dangerously good in my opinion. Dangerous, because some people tend to overspray these fruity-fresh fragrances. But especially on hot days, this fragrance is quickly too much of a good thing.
The price is of course more than good...and tempted me to blind-buy.
