Otto Kern Full Play smells so bad at first that I get a migraine. When you spray this fragrance on, a massive synthetic bomb hits you, a mix of rhubarb and lavender. I unfortunately had to wash it off right away. I can't even say for what occasion one could use this synthetic sweetness. The price is not very high, but still too high for what it is.

The strange thing is that people around me like the perfume on me.

I could imagine it as a car scent. Let's see what I do with this colleague.

The longevity is still solid and the sillage is also okay.

The bottle could be worse as well.

All in all, I would say, give it a try, apparently it also pleases my predecessors. Unfortunately, it hasn't become mine!

I need to reach my minimum order value... What should I take? Hmm Néroli Intense by Jeanne en Provence. Never heard of it. 6€, fine, I'll take it, now it's free shipping. If it’s not good, I’ll spray it in the car.
That was my first thought when I ordered this perfume.

Well, my car never got any of it, at most when this scent clung to me.

Scent:
In the top note, the complete progression of the fragrance tree is immediately evident. Except for the first 5 minutes, where a hint of lemon and rosemary comes through. After that, pure neroli with a slight woody note, which is not meant negatively at all. The ladies could easily wear Néroli Intense as well. This perfume does everything right that it promises.
It will also be suitable for layering. Just with which other perfume, I unfortunately cannot say.

Longevity and sillage:
On my skin, the scent lasts 3 hours, while on clothing it lasts around 10 hours. The sillage is moderate... Completely fine. Close to the body after 3 hours on clothing.

Bottle:
You can't expect much at this price. The bottle itself is nice to look at. The cap, however, wobbles and the sticker comes off quickly. That's okay.

Conclusion:
Recommended. At this price, you can't go wrong. If you know you like neroli, this is a safe blind buy. For about a month now, I’ve been seeing Néroli Intense more and more on TikTok. It must have gained more popularity lately.

Here it is... Ocean Royale. This is where it all started back then. It was the first one in my collection.

As a big James Bond fan, I wished for it for Christmas when I was 13. My wish came true. My first perfume. My Holy Grail at the age of 13. This is where growing up began for me.

Now, nearly 9 years later, I have it as a memory in my collection. However, I rarely want to use it, and there are reasons for that.

Scent:
The first thing you smell is the synthetic note, reminiscent of nail polish remover. Shortly after, the artificial bergamot and lime come into play, and I can barely detect the anise in the background.
Once the top note settles, you can faintly sense sweet woods, unfortunately more on the stinky side. That was about it.

Sillage and Longevity:
Terrible. I can smell it at most for 1.5 hours up close.

Bottle:
The bottle is fine, nothing special, but it does its job quite well. I like the twist mechanism for opening and closing the spray head.

Price-Performance:
There are much better options for the price of around €30 for 100 ml.

Unfortunately, I just can't write anything better about my former teenage love "007 Ocean Royale."

I might be the first commentator on this perfume...

I received this scent as a Christmas gift from my girlfriend. Unwrapped the gift. I was first happy that she thought of my love for perfumes and then sprayed it on my wrist.

A little side note: She told me before unwrapping that it was a blind buy.
And so she ordered it on my favorite site with N.

It's quite a challenge to open this bottle. As you can see in the pictures here, the cap is not exactly the best and the bottle is certainly not the prettiest.

Before I smelled it, I first extended my arm to her. Her first response with wide eyes was "sorry."

The second person who then had wide eyes... was me. So wrist to the nose and sniff.

What struck me immediately was a terrible citrus synthetic note, but I said to myself that I would give the scent time to develop. And that time was well spent! After unwrapping her gift (about half an hour later), I thought about the perfume on my wrist and smelled it again. Uhhh the synthetic note had vanished, what remained was an aquatic note paired with green apple. Now I really liked it, so fresh! It has that barber note that I always enjoy after getting a haircut. Great fruit.
Very nice to wear in summer and spring.

The longevity of my friend is good for a fresh scent. It lasts about 4 hours, which is noticeable to those around me, and then up to 8 hours close to the skin.

In terms of price, it has the nice affordable Jaguar prices that don't hurt the wallet, even if the perfume isn't very liked.

In conclusion, I can say that I am glad to have this in my collection now. Otherwise, I probably would have never had it on my radar. Definitely worth a try!

I don't quite understand all the negative comments about this fragrance. One of the best when it comes to performance. Best worn in winter, 2 sprays and you feel about 4-5 degrees warmer right away. Women also have no problem with it; in fact, several have said that they prefer to smell it on me. And since it gives off a certain warmth, women love to be close to you in winter. Longevity easily lasts up to 8 hours, not a work fragrance, but since my colleague likes it so much, there's still some in the office :D. Sillage is also noticeable at a very good distance. My favorite fragrance for winter. Christmas market = top. And at this price, you can't go wrong. Please don't hate too much, this was my first comment.
