  Quite disappointed, to be honest. Hoping it needs time to settle. In my bottle, the opening is lemon and mint, here it recalls Álvarez Gómez Fraiche, although then the latter goes to neroli and they lose the resemblance. I note more alcohol than in the AG. As it dries, the fruits change and it starts to resemble Afternoon Swim somewhat. The problem is it’s already quite weak. The longevity is disappointing. Hoping in a month or two it gets closer to the original and improves. For now, I wouldn’t recommend it as an alternative to Afternoon Swim. Aether, as an alternative to Greenley, seems better in quality, similarity and performance. Edit (04/08/24): The mandarin has appeared. It smells much better in the trail than on the skin. Still has an alcoholic opening (though less) and the quality still seems low compared to others from the brand. Still not an AS. To put a number to it, I’d say 70/75%. It’s not a bad perfume for the price, but it hasn’t convinced me.

  What a good fragrance for summer! The opening is a rich grapefruit mixed with a bit of orange, it doesn’t smell like lemon as the first person said. It’s a D&G Forever style grapefruit but this one is more musky and has green mint that refreshes. Does it resemble Pacific Chill? It has an air of it, but it’s nothing like a clone. I can’t find any peach note. Totally unisex, a little more masculine than Pacific. Longevity? Not bad, it gives you about four hours. For a summer pick-me-up, it’s a treat.

  Good evening, mate. I respect that you smell it that way, but I don’t share that you don’t respect that I smell it differently. Regarding the grapefruit you mention, I only detect Methyl Pamplemousse, no juiciness. The lemon is high in Citral and the green mandarin from Pacific Chill isn’t there; it smells more like normal orange. I do note the C14 aldehyde (peach), but as it dries, not like in the LV, and very weak. As for the rest of the fruits, let’s not talk about it. My opinion is from my bottle; I left it to macerate to see if it changes. I don’t know if yours has been ageing longer or is a different batch. I don’t like to be too snobbish about ingredients, but I also don’t believe I have the ‘nose’ to ignore opinions. Every perfume is a world and every nose perceives it as they wish. Some will love it and some will hate it, and that’s beautiful. Otherwise, we’d all wear the same perfume. I’m glad you like it and use it. In my case, perhaps someone else will agree, but not me. I’d appreciate if you didn’t question your perceptions with absolute truths, as your opinion serves some and mine serves others. Best regards.

  Smells of luxury and elegance, a 70% dupe of LV’s Pacific Chill which is a citrus bomb. On the opening, a sharp grapefruit recalls D&G Light Blue Forever but less acidic, with oranges and lemons (though not declared). As it dries, roses, apricot, mint and blackcurrants bloom over a base of ambroxan, wood and musk that gives it masculinity while remaining unisex. It’s an Arab marvel, citrusy, floral and creamy, ideal for summer. The key difference is the first 20 minutes are spicier and bitterer due to a lack of apricot, but then it matches the original. Its longevity surpasses LV: 6 hours on skin and over 12 on clothes. It projects strongly for the first hour before becoming a personal bubble. I travelled from Miami to Santiago and when I woke up, my clothes still smelled of perfume and it was still on my skin. It’s like the version 3.0 of Lacoste White, a love at first sniff.

  Simply wonderful, rich. Nothing synthetic, safe for the heat but I’d recommend it 100%. A delight, if it’s a dupe of Pacific Chill and a well-made one.

  Simply wonderful, rich! Nothing synthetic, definitely for the heat but I recommend it wholeheartedly. A delight; if it’s a dupe of Pacific Chill and a well-made one at that.

  Bought a decant and wow, what a rich fragrance, so rich! I’m picky about perfumes, rarely liking any, but this one has caught me. Very rich, fresh, elegant and unique. An ADN I’ve never smelled before. The only downside is it’s not sold here, I can imagine why… EDIT. I still think it’s perfect for spring/summer, although I note it’s somewhat unisex, even occasionally feminine. HOWEVER, I use it with great pleasure.

  Very good fragrance; for me, it’s one of the most natural among the Arab scents. What a pity it doesn’t last, barely noticeable. Totally unisex.

  Bought a decant and wow, what a rich fragrance it is!! I’m quite particular about perfumes; it’s hard for me to like anything, but this one has won me over. Very rich, fresh, elegant and unique. An DNA I’ve never smelled before. The only downside is it’s not available to buy anywhere; I can imagine why… EDIT. It still seems perfect for spring/summer to me, though I note it’s somewhat unisex, even leaning feminine at times. NONETHELESS, I use it with great pleasure.

  A very good fragrance; for me, one of the most natural scents among the Arab perfumes. A pity regarding the longevity, it doesn’t last at all. Totally unisex.

  Rich citrus aroma with a sweet touch; my only complaint is that it doesn’t last on the skin at all.

  Smells great, but it fades quickly.

  Excellent aroma, poor longevity
