Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
It fits perfectly on sunny days, with a fresh, metallic opening that evolves into something woody. The longevity is insane, lasting over 12 hours and projecting massively, but be warned: it’s highly polarising. I absolutely love it, though it can come across as very strong to others.
It’s a bomb, but to me it smells too much of metallic water. I’m not a fan of blue, fresh fragrances, and this sits right in that line with extreme potency. I applied it three hours ago and it’s still there, though it becomes noticeable when you move your arm away. It’s citrusy, acidic, and oceanic; at times it smells like a multi-purpose cleaner. Ideal if you like perfumes such as Cool Water or Polo Blue. Scent: 5, Longevity: 10, Sillage: 10, Value for money: 8, Versatility: 6, Overall: 6.

Blood Concept… complicated. It smells very metallic and, even though I don’t wear it, has citrus notes. It’s different. At first it’s citrusy with that metallic touch, but over time it becomes shrill and penetrating, as if it’s going right up the nose. I don’t know how it dries down because I had to shower to get it off. Excessive longevity and heavy sillage. I recommend testing it before buying to see if you like its evolution. I didn’t like it at all; it’s a risky proposition.
Although I know it has metallic notes, to me it smells more of cleanliness. A friend lent it to me and I think it’s interesting for my collection, but it’s a very uncommon fragrance.
