Mynefs

Well, I think most people would agree that FM fragrances are pretty special and always a little out of the ordinary. Before the ultra niche fans feel offended: I'm talking about the masses. And that's what I thought here too; perhaps a fragrance that can be placed alongside the kings like "The Night | Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle" or "The Moon | Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle"? On the contrary, it's the little tender sister.

I really couldn't imagine anything about the fragrance and had no idea what kind of release it would be.

First sniff: Hmmm well, ok. At first sniff you get this soft floral base with a strong topping of rose, sounds interesting but smells a bit like a toilet cleaner at first. Sorry. But I'm not a rose fan either.

But it's good that it doesn't stay that way, I tested the fragrance for a long time and was actually surprised by the development, because the rose disappears pretty quickly and what remains is a soft floral base, with time a peach note prevails more and more. So it's quite floral with a slight fruity summery touch on a peach. The rose is now pretty much in the background and is present, but only as a minor player.

After a few hours my conclusion: Really nice, basically I see the fragrance more in women, which is probably due to the floral / rose mix, but I wouldn't be averse to wearing the fragrance myself. Anyone who likes fresh laundry or rose will like it. The fragrance is very light in the air but still has the necessary charisma to be noticed, I can't imagine anyone finding this fragrance "terrible". Sure, it doesn't reinvent the wheel, but for the summer, a top thing!

Conclusion: For me a light floral fresh laundry fragrance with a hint of peach and a little touch of rose in the background. Goes with me every day and in every season. You can do it.

After you've tried out the big brands like Xerjoff, PdM, MFK, Creed and so on in the niche world, you venture into new things. But I always go into it without any expectations because I assume that I've already smelled the best fragrances anyway. Well.... just not!

In general, The Nose Behind is a well-known brand, but I have the feeling that nobody takes it seriously. Wrongly so, in my opinion. One day when I was smelling it in the perfumery, the name spoke to me: Royal Dubai. I wonder what that is? I tried it... and: WOW.

I think the fragrance is in the same league as "Arabesque | The Merchant Of Venice" "Il Capriccio del Maestro | Nobile 1942" "Oajan | Parfums de Marly" and so on, i.e. very sweet, cinnamony and very, very delicious fragrances. There is a minimal minty-balsamic note in the background. I have absolutely no idea why nobody really has this fragrance on their radar, I find it brutally delicious and indispensable from my collection. I also get a lot of good feedback on it, so top!

Previously I thought Ganymede was quite good, but for me personally it was a bit too synthetic, which got on my nerves in the long run. It also gave me a really good headache after a few hours. In short: we weren't friends.

Can happen, the Ganymede quickly flew out of the collection again. Now this beautiful thing came out, but I didn't let myself be influenced by the Parfumo community beforehand and deliberately didn't read anything about the fragrance.
First sniff: Yes, we are warming up! It's just that typical bitter/saffrony Ganymede DNA, which smells much better. It's not so blatantly synthetic and has a certain freshness in the background, which makes it much more wearable than the Ganymede.

It also feels much more natural and not so overpowering. Sure, it hasn't reinvented the wheel, but for me it's a better version of a good fragrance that I wanted to wear.

H/S is okay, I see it more as an office fragrance or as a freshie with a "conscience something". I think a maximum of 8 hours is realistic.

Well done!
