The young London
"W I D I A N" in hieroglyphics adorns the beautiful Widian-typical bottle in a cartouche that was actually intended for ancient Egyptian royal names. Does this royal reference do justice to Aswan?
The fragrance starts off fresh and slightly green and is noticeably different from the better-known London. But it doesn't take long for the raspberry to make itself felt. It is fruity, sweet and loud, but also delicate and smooth at the same time.
I don't notice the leather note for a while, unlike the London. Only after a while does a leather base develop, which doesn't steal the show from the raspberry even after many hours.
The freshness and soft green notes make Aswan a fragrance that is more suitable for everyday wear, which is great for the colder and fresher months. I was still very aware of the fragrance after 10 hours - the raspberry was still very noticeable.
Aswan is probably a little too potent for the office, but can be used anywhere else.
It is younger, fresher and more casual than London, but less elegant.
But does that make it the king? - No, in my opinion he is too "inexperienced" for that.
As much as I like him, London is the king, but Aswan is the prince!

Fresh, pungent, long-lasting
Office for Men was one of my first fragrances and I bought it for exactly the purpose stated in the name. Now I have to say right at the beginning that you should never buy a Fragrance One fragrance at full price, because the fragrance is definitely not worth it. (I got it with a 66% discount)
But why?
Starting with the packaging, which makes you think you've ordered from a dropshipper, the design of the bottle isn't really convincing either. Simple, practical, economical - that describes the bottle best. It is definitely not an eye-catcher in the collection.
Fortunately, the fragrance is of a higher quality than the object in which it is stored. It starts off very potently citrusy, a bit "in your face" and retains this citric quality for a while, but is completely displaced by ambroxan after about half an hour.
This note is sometimes so strong that I perceived it as pungent. The fragrance is not fancy or particularly high-quality, but it does what it promises!
I can only recommend applying the fragrance a good hour before going to the office, otherwise it is really too overpowering. I managed quite well with a spray on my chest (under my clothes!) and a spray on the back of my neck and even then you still notice Office for Men after 12 hours.
It is a successful, very long-lasting, but unnecessarily expensive fresh fragrance, which should be dosed with caution, but which you can enjoy for a long time. If you just want to smell clean and fresh and don't have a problem with a linear fragrance and lots of ambroxan, Office for Men is a good option that not everyone will wear.
