Sweet aromatic aquatic summer flanker 2010
Diesel fragrances are usually recognized immediately. You don't have the best reputation, either.
The fistflacons and their target group certainly contributed a lot to this. You don't say "diesel yourself" for nothing either.

This fragrance is the Summer Edition 2010 of the Original Diesel Fuel for Life. A summer scent you won't find much about on the internet.
Diesel went a different way with this Flanker, however, and gave a completely independent fragrance independent of the original Fuel for Life. Not only a lighter variation of the original like the Summer Edition 2009, but this makes it unique in the whole range.

I don't like the original very much with the raspberry in the center, too prickly, remarkably sweet synthetic. Had the jeans version once.

Sweet and aromatic anise with light liquorice nuances mixed with verbena. The sweet, delicious aniseed accompanies you clearly into the heart note and resonates throughout the entire fragrance process. He knows how to please in his aromatic way.

The heart note is the fresh, soapy lavender paired with "frozen" aquatic notes. Yes, the aquatic also appears here in connection with the anise.
This plays quite well together in the nose, also with the colour of the bottle. This is accompanied by woody spicy notes with vetiver in the base.

The fragrance is fairly linear, but has its own distinctive diesel summer DNA. I like this one.

Of course he has a synthetic sweet diesel DNA that not everyone will like. A saying remained in my memory: "It is a fragrance that you can smell gladly and well at others, but never buy it yourself" Whether this is the case here is up to everyone to decide for themselves. I got it because it is very rare and hard to find today. He's been circling around in my head with his eye-catching color for some time now.

Besides Fuel for Life Spirit (also a completely independent fragrance) this Diesel Flanker has now also moved into my collection.

The prices are, if you get one, usually between 100-150 euros for 75ml settled. Whereby it cost at that time approx. 60 euro.

A farewell greeting
A change of license holder now forces you to your knees, you go into the scent memoirs, many say:
"Please never do this!"

Your successor is already at the start,
what did one bring here again only on the market?

Born in Rome, he does not know the Cologne Cathedral, nor does he throw anyone from the throne with this achievement.

I must confess, you may not understand it, I found your twin DHI (2011) a little finer, but the difference is a smaller one.

So many soon mourn you afterwards, it is even difficult for you to say goodbye, but they must carry it with composure.

So is your walk in the fragrance story, now don't say you did badly, your prices only rise so that it soon crashes.

You had two brothers, too, nanu, even behind these the door unfortunately closes forever.

Amber and tobacco Powerhouse classics with lots of charm
First of all: The fragrance is really very special, especially good with a lot of character and charm.

Through a very nice Mark Cross fragrance lover I got a 10ml miniature bottle of this classic

I have to admit I love amber scents.

What is Mark Cross like now:
I smell a golden, honeyed, deep amber right from the start. This is accompanied by citric, ethereal, bitter-sweet and spicy notes. All this is finely interwoven with the main ingredient tobacco.
Yeah, he's also slightly metallic in the background.
This metallic sweet woody tone is unique.

Everything is well coordinated and does not remind of any old men's scent that is already 40 years old.

The scent is very rare and is traded accordingly expensive.

An absolute recommendation in the classic powerhouse sector.

Improved flanker of the original 1000 Miglia, including mysterious asphalt chord
1000 Miglia Extreme, a flanker of the original 1000 Miglia, wrapped in a black matt bottle garment with red accents.

The bottle looks sporty and elegant and convinces the eyes. To flatter the fingers with the rubberized cap.

Now for the fragrance itself:
It is an offshoot of the original 1000 Miglia fragrance, which I found too loud, too present too strong synthetic fresh sweet.
1000 Miglia Extreme is really an improvement and refinement of the original. Muffled, calmer but present in the right measure. Don't shout so loud: "Take me for I am here!"

The curiosity that immediately stands out in the pyramid: asphalt chord !?
What's that really supposed to be? A synthetic fragrance? I don't smell a freshly paved road. Very well, then.

I am positively surprised by the fragrance.
It is fresh-sweet synthetic and intended for a young generation. But he's doing a damn good job of it on my nose. Even the sporty Mid-30 can wear it.

It is the only fragrance so far where I don't smell strong soapy lavender and I have the impression to have soap in my mouth. He is nevertheless present and well connected with the rest. It even plays the leading role in the entire fragrance process.
You can't really see leather and wood. Or they're so well mixed.
The fresh-sweet lavender remains.
As already mentioned in perfect concentration.

The shape of the bottle is identical to that of the Chopard Malaki series, only not made of glass and with a heavy lid, but trimmed to classic rally style.

Well done Chopard!
The scent seems to be adjusted and difficult to find, but even before it was not widespread.

Flankers can therefore be an improvement of the original, as this offshoot proves skilfully.

Le Beau? More like Le Terrible!
Jean-Paul: What has become of you?
As a worshipper of your greatest masterpiece JPG2, I have to write something like this once.

Today the newest creation from JPG was tested. It's okay in the beginning. Light trains from the original Le Male with coconut, hmm ok "not so bad" I thought.

Then all of a sudden after a few minutes the Tonka steamroller came and wanted to fascinate me regardless of my losses or my wallet. It sticks to the skin like superglue. No use doing the dishes. Well at least the target group gets something for the expensive money. Stubbornness in the base note.

The fragrance speaks volumes for a whole series of new releases, all ending in a synthetically cheap stabbing, sweet tonka bean base. Like Spicebomb Nightvision or CH Kings. I can't smell it anymore. My nose sounds the alarm immediately. Wear or even buy? Never.

Is that all that's possible today? No trace of quality or ingenuity. Only greed for profit everywhere.

Le Beau comes CH Kings very similar in base. No wonder. Both are based on the same concepts and basic fragrances. And that already after not even 5 minutes.

Sorry, but I can't recommend the scent to anyone. If you want to spend a lot of money on cheap, artificial clay synthetics, go ahead. The normal Le Male, worn a thousand times and watered down, is clearly better.
