The most beautiful thing is the beginning - a red, bloody rose and fruit. Later, patchouli appears, but it doesn't dominate the rose, it just recedes slightly into the background, I don't sense any incense in the notes. What I like least is the end - the rose becomes more and more sour and slightly more chypre. To sum up, the fragrance is beautiful, but I think you can find many equally beautiful rose-patchouli perfumes that are not necessarily as expensive.

Spicy vanilla, dipped in rum and generously sprinkled with spices - that's how I perceive this fragrance. It becomes a little more docile over time. In my opinion, a teapot is perhaps too heavy for fall, winter and summer, but it burns a little in the nose, maybe it's the pepper. It's definitely not a polite, fluffy vanilla. Worth testing before buying :)

Tobacolor smells like melted, smoking rosin. Anyone who has ever soldered electronics with an old soldering iron knows what I'm talking about. This Dior simply smokes out of your skin. Good thing it's tamed by the sweetness of honey and plum fruit. It calms it down. It reminds me a lot of my favorite Ryder Ex Idolo, only in a sweeter version. Longevity 12+, projection high+. Anyone looking for smoky tobacco scents will be delighted.

Unfortunately, such perfumes are no longer produced :( A few years ago, I bought a full 125 ml bottle and a 75 ml bottle on the local market for a lot of money. The opening is very dry and reminds me personally of grapefruit. It literally takes a few minutes, the aroma becomes sweeter (but not overly so) and what this fragrance "stands for" emerges: sweet fig accompanied by bitter and tannic tea, rather icy - and firmly icy. I don't really sense anything else here, well - maybe, if I may, those violets, that's a pretty characteristic note for me. The whole thing is energetic, sparkling and cheerful. Spring - oh yes! Is it suitable for other seasons? Absolutely for hot weather, but you have to be careful when dispensing the liquid from the atomizer because the clouds are very big and Good Life packs a punch - and what a shock it is! The longevity on my skin is flawless - 5-9 hours. I use it like crazy when it's hot, on colder days it's a little weaker, I use a maximum of 3 sprays because I choke on more. I don't know any other scent like this and I will save what I have and one day I will let my grandchildren smell how perfumes were made, not what we have now....

The spirit of the original Spicebomb is there, but Eau Fraiche is better than it and SB Extreme in my opinion, and even better than the much previously discontinued Antidote. I like it a lot because of its warmth and the calmness I feel when I smell it. You can definitely notice the grapefruit here, but it's neither bitter nor sour, it's quite warm, but on the other hand there's no exaggeration in the other direction and there's no excess of sweetness. Our citrus fruits are gradually coated with spices, you can especially feel the salt (selected in large quantities, which increases the depth of the whole composition) and a bit of pepper, which is not very strong or dry, but only ensures that the Eau Fraiche is not too flat. Eau Fraiche doesn't surprise us with anything later on, but it doesn't need to. We have a great compromise here between a fairly classic approach to sweets and modernity, unfortunately these proportions are often disturbed these days and well-known brands compete with each other when it comes to making the sweetest possible snacks. Contrary to the voting results, I think this perfume is better suited for the evening, even if it is relatively light. However, it does help that this perfume can be worn all year round. It's a shame it's no longer available, because there was something special about it. Well, if we don't know what it's about, we know what it's about ...
