I bought this months ago for something everyday and budget-friendly. Now that I’ve tried more, I see it’s undervalued. It doesn’t project or last long, but for the price, it’s a success. It’s a scent perfect for daily wear, quite pleasant. The mint and cardamomo blend gives it a distinct twist, and as it dries down, you get sweet and spicy notes which are lovely. If you’re looking for something complex or attention-grabbing, this isn’t it. But if you want something that doesn’t hurt to wear and makes you feel comfortable, it’s a brilliant choice. I have it and I have no regrets.
I picked this up months ago for daily, budget-friendly use, and now that I’ve tried more fragrances, I see it’s been undervalued. It doesn’t project well and doesn’t last long, but for smelling like yourself, it’s pleasant. The mint and cardamomo blend offers a distinct twist; as it dries down, you notice the sweet, spicy notes, which work well. If you’re looking for something complex or attention-grabbing, this isn’t it, but if you want something comfortable and unobtrusive, it’s a fantastic choice. I own it and have no regrets.
It’s curious that I bought this thinking it was a clone of Azzaro Parfum, as they bear no resemblance to each other. It’s true that the first ten seconds smell like Azzaro, but that’s where it ends. The funny thing is that as it dries down, it reminds me of Lacoste 12.12 White. I’ve tried them together and yes, they do resemble each other. I don’t dislike it and for €20, it’s not bad at all.
It’s curious that I bought this after considering it a clone of Azzaro Parfum, because when tested side by side, they’re as different as chalk and cheese. It’s true that for the first ten seconds, it smells like Azzaro, but that’s where the similarity ends. The funny thing is that as it dries down, for me, it reminds me more of Lacoste 12.12 White; I’ve sprayed them together and they’re quite similar. It doesn’t disgust me, and for €20, it’s not a bad deal.
