More feminine than masculine; I bought it based on good reviews for scent, longevity and price, even though the shop lists it as men’s fragrance. On my skin, it came out unisex with a feminine touch. The smell is rich and sweet but not cloying, a wonderful sweetness perfect for hot weather. Basically linear lychee, jasmine and vanilla that didn’t evolve much on me. I bought it blind for the cherry note I never noticed; it smells like sweet fruit, not caramel. In terms of compliments, I didn’t use it much as I wasn’t a huge fan, but my wife absolutely loved it on my skin, saying it smelled like blueberry and she preferred that; others said it smells great and some noted it as feminine, so it could be a crowd-pleaser. Usage is informal and warm, not for something elegant, though it works well at night. It’s social, sparkling, cheerful and jovial, but not sensual or nocturnal. Performance delivers: around eight hours on skin and days on clothes, moderate projection to an arm’s length with a subtle trail. It’s not a beast mode; six sprays don’t fill a room, it doesn’t clash with other scents, the trail isn’t dense but sits above average. The price is good; it’s niche without exceeding 3,000 MXN with an extract concentration, although it comes in 50ml and would be better in 100ml, as the oil isn’t as dense as others. Not a guaranteed blind buy; if you like JPG Ultramale-style scents you might enjoy it, otherwise steer clear. Verdict: Compliments 8, Longevity 8, Projection 8, Sillage 8, Price 6, Total 7.5.
A lychee and cherry bomb, sweet and at full volume, with a rosemary base that gives it a kick and that herbal touch; I can’t smell the jasmine as the other notes overwhelm it. What really works for me is the lychee, followed by the cherry and that herbal blend with patchouli. Intense and striking, unisex but with a more feminine vibe. A ten out of ten, just like the whole range.
An explosion of lychee and cherry, super sweet and potent, with a rosemary base that gives it strength and that herbal touch; I don’t detect the jasmine as the other notes overpower it. What I do feel is lychee, then cherry, and that herbal note with patchouli. It’s intense and striking, unisex but leaning towards her. A top-tier perfume, just like everything from this house.
