My Signature / The Billing.
I was about 15 when I discovered the smell. It must have been 2003 when I couldn't get away from it. It wasn't just a perfume or EdT, it was associations that no other fragrance was able to evoke: gasoline, leather, freshly printed book pages, it was hot, ice at the same time, you had to briefly process what you were offered. This violet in the small red, orange and black bottle was really daring. The durability on the skin was good, he developed well, but never to something I did not like. I was able to wear it really well, I always used only one or two squirts. Eventually it became a part of me, although I had other things. If it was important to me, there was only one thing I could do: Fahrenheit.

As a teenager I could afford the fragrance well, there were at that time the 30 ml for fixed 29.95 with the Türkisen, with actions 24.95. Likewise with Margit Krüger with 10% on the 29.95 for under 27. In the Rossmann or Galeria rarely even for 21.95 €.

Often I didn't even need to buy it myself at that time, because I got bigger bottles from family and friends as presents. I wore it for 15 years, and today, before birthdays and the like, I always have to say "please don't give me Fahrenheit". After the last watered down 100 ml bottle (2 years ago) I am almost done with the subject, the scent is a thing of the past for me, which is also good.

How many reforms were actually made to the fragrance? Meanwhile, it leaves something greasy and sweet on my skin, and streaks something that's not really sweet, but rather strange / without depth, but all the more stale and without power. In addition, the current price policy is simply ridiculous for the fragrance as it is today.

Daring was once, now more adapted and character ironed (for a lot of money and little performance).

I still get a little nostalgic when I see him somewhere and spray him, but the hoped-for fire always fails to appear. So much the nicer when you discover something new and learn to love it.

Ps: Every single Fahrenheit Flanker was also worse than the other one for me. When I think of the Aqua, for example, it still scares me, really bad. Unfortunately I got it as a present..

I hope you still like the scent today. For myself there are also good reformulations, which in my opinion have made some fragrances better. How is it with you?
