Advent Advent, the Spicebomb is on fire!
Yes, there must be some fun and if you think you can find some deadly words here, you are at the wrong perfume!

Unfortunately a statement is not enough to describe the Christmas miracle you can get here.
Starting with the bottle.
He's hoping for action, adrenaline, and man's toys. Very noble, black and if you buy 90ml, certainly big enough so that even real men do not look like little children.
The sapwood here is made of plastic, but doesn't bother me personally at all, but the bottle itself is pretty heavy.
So I take the safety off and immediately spray the hero's water on my neck and my jaw folds into the bottomless depths.
Who thinks he's gonna be a Bradley Cooper, Chris Pratt or Bruce Willis, WRONG!
Congratulations, you're a baked apple now!
I just can't describe it any other way. This fragrance is not at all what you associate with the performance, but I am not disappointed.
The spice explosion at least lives up to its name and if the bottle were a baked apple, it would be THE Christmas perfume no.1!
Lots of cinnamon, super pleasant vanilla and lots of delicious things in the background, where I can imagine everything except the grapefruit. Pepper doesn't bother, tobacco smells only after 4 or 5 hours and rather in a chocolaty way.
It also doesn't look sharp at all, as if you would hold your nose in a bag of cloves or cinnamon, rather soft and sweetish.
Smelling like food is not nice, neither fryer fat nor roast goose.
Spicebomb Extreme still makes you feel comfortable. Man is not sexy, man is to bite on.
The performance is madness and even after 8 hours it is still as present as after 2.

There's only one minus point, and that's his raison d'être. Who wants to smell like baked apple except in December? After the holidays most people are tired of the smells, can't see the Christmas tree anymore and want to switch back to a healthy diet and if it's only enough for 2 weeks.
The Advent season belongs to the Spicebomb Extreme and then it comes back to the back of the shelf.

It's not all snow that crunches,
...but also high-quality, heavy and untreated leather jackets. That's exactly what you get from the Uomo intense. Plus vanilla.
I've been thinking for a long time how to get a "cheaper" alternative to my Ombre Leather from Tom Ford.
Not a twin fragrance, but leather. Not this biting old man's version, rather the leather couch in a lounge. You sit in it and smell brandies, rum, whiskey and tobacco. Whether from the pipe as with my father-in-law or cigars, but you always smell the leather.
On my search I found 2 interesting leather scents which are very similar at least with the ingredients. JPG le male essence de parfum and just the Valentino uomo intense.
I got 2 souks from a very nice gentleman at the same time and the similarity when you smell the open pocket sprayer is amazing.
Now that I could wear both fragrances for 3 days each, I notice that the intro is identical. One is first killed by the vanilla and the Uomo makes this again ne scoop penetrated.
However, the difference sets in after only a short time. While le male's leather only creeps past the vanilla after 2 hours, Valentino's full pack of crunching leather jacket is available after 10 minutes. It smells super authentic and the fragrance is superior to le male in every respect. Sillage and durability are as promised very powerful, especially if you are not used to it yet. This makes the essense de parfum "more suitable for everyday use".
It gets personal for a moment, but it's important for others to be able to stand the scent when testing it for the first time, on the skin please, not on paper!
Years ago I had a phase in my life when I had a lot of turkey meat on my menu every day when one or the other single sports enthusiast would know about it.
No firm woman at my side, the turkey breast remainders gammel regularly in the almost always empty garbage can before itself. When it happened again that the neighbours had to think my body was behind the door, I made the mistake of my life, related to the story here.
I took my most unpleasant deodorant what I still had standing around and shot the siffeimer with it full.

It was Axe Vanilla.
The result was a nausea that brought tears to my eyes and burned my synapses forever.
When I sprayed Valentino Uomo intense the first time I got a flashback like it is in a picture book. Although it is years ago, my brain didn't need a milisecond to show me the picture of my garbage can and its smell.
I was dead unhappy because I should like the smell, something special I wanted to have, which not everyone likes. That I found the directly disgusting destroyed my plan.
Fortunately Bottega veneta pour homme, Ombre leather and Pringles Barbecue taught me that good taste sometimes needs a push or 2.
I mean, don't copy him, maybe you're not ready for Valentino Uomo Intense!
Until then, Jean Paul Gaultier's leather belt will do the same.
For special occasions outdoors I will preserve the souk and wear it gladly, no matter how others find it.

Coach all in 1
Okay, he can't do everything. However, this is surely connected on the one hand with the fact that it is an inexpensive EDT and on the other hand with the own requirement. If you like sniffing scents or scent clouds of several square meters around you, you will surely find something to complain about.

I wished for and got Coach for men for my birthday. It's like a blind buy, because I didn't test it. 2 Self-confident Youtubers have asked foreign noses in the pedestrian zone for their opinion and should determine the winner for themselves.
The coach was convincing and also did well in other reviews.
The fragrance pyramid gave me some very popular ingredients price, what should go wrong with so many arguments? And hey, Nashi pear. Everybody likes Naschibirne

Exceptionally ordinary!
To an order at the green D, I got a sample Idôle and my girlfriend accepted it gratefully.
She mostly wears flowery scents which is always good for her petite blonde appearance, for my feelings.
The fragrance didn't reinvent itself after spraying on and went off surprisingly flat for the first few minutes.
Standard food ala 99% of women's fragrances because the bottle or the water itself is pink.
After 10 to 15 minutes Idôle wakes up from his Sleeping Beauty sleep and reminds his wearer that one splash was enough.
The Sillage is expressive, rosy sweet, but never obtrusive or pungent. All very soft and digestible, the bet feminine and not playful.
But what forced me to spend the completely inflated price for a 50ml bottle is the Drydown.
Every time I entered the living room something came towards me which does not smell so rosy at all. This typically warm patchouli or leather it won't be, so I guess the included musk chord (but I really have no idea)?!
The sweetness in the heaviness of this unusually masculine note couldn't possibly come from me and gives the Sillage a kind of self-confidence that, in contrast to all other girls' fragrances, says "enough played, I'll tell you what I want now"... even if it's just the coffee you make your pretty girlfriend now without complaining.
Idôle performs quite long, but the fragrance does not change any more. Rose>Bonbon Sweets>Self-consciousness. Not new, but proven.
What bothered me a little was the enormous price. Sure, the fragrance is 2019 and not only looks clean but also very noble, just how the fragrance smells. Only the cap is a bitter disappointment at first.
To describe it with my simple words, scent horny, bottle horny, plastic cap....ürgs.
There is apparently a "Handysiliconhülle" for the flask and asks the wearer to take it everywhere, but then such a gross carver?
No matter, important is what comes out.
Good everyday scent for girls over 25+ and I will smell it on my girlfriend :)

Yeah, no... no.
Want to buy me something cheap for my beach vacation.
Spray on throughout the day, apply cream and the mixture of Hawaian Tropic sun cream and good perfume is a waste for everyone.
So to Rossmann and there all 0815 EDT's sprayed through and then, wow! I grabbed it from my own cardboard display on the shelf and was shocked how independently it smells.
Super spicy, male but not opamese. Since Bottega Venetta I stand fully on everything that smells woody spicy and actually comes at the end a small piece of leather around the corner.
And the end is unfortunately also the big catch, because that comes faster than the actual fun stops.
He pulverizes horny summer feeling for ü30 "boys" in the first hour and a half, then gets thinner and thinner and close and after 4 hours is over.
No waste, because he and his brother Craft de cologne only had 8Euro each for the 30ml.
In everyday life it won't make anybody happy and I only use it after a shower to smell the couch time with my mistress.
If someone knows the DNA in a more performant perfume, please feel free to contact me, because I really like it!
