Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
This EDT, sold in Buenos Aires with deals at $20, feels unisex to me. On the skin, it smells like white Dove soap; it’s super neutral and I only wear it to ‘smell clean’.
Ugh, it starts with a blast of pure alcohol, followed by a jarring mix of powdery violets, very artificial pineapple, and fresh aldehydes (maybe cashmere?). I detect 80% herbal notes rather than fruity ones, even though I know it’s trying to emulate YSL’s Y. To me, it reminds me of CK One.
Very similar to Nautica Life Energy; side by side they aren’t identical, but there’s no doubt one will remind you of the other. Frankly, this David Beckham fragrance outperforms Nautica in longevity by a long shot.
