  Note by note it’s a dupe of BDK’s Citrus Riviera. It doesn’t do anything wrong but it feels like something doesn’t quite fit. On the opening it opens up super citrusy like lemon. Then the lemon lowers in intensity to let the fig and strawberry stand out. Unlike the HC8 Fig, here the fig is actually wearable for the heat. Imagine a lemon with strawberry jam and that’s how it smells. Edit: Now I use it before bed and I’m so happy, I’ve kind of grown fond of it.

  A fresh and very natural fragrance, with a sweet lime and a subtle touch of eucalyptus. The neroli is delicious. Being citrusy, it’s light, with a moderate trail and lasts about 5 hours, but for the price and practical bottle, it’s worth always carrying. Ideal for heat, very versatile and refreshing. Excellent option for citrus lovers.

  This fragrance reminds me of homemade lemonade; initially on the skin it smells too strong of natural lemon, as if you’ve just squeezed one literally. Then the intensity drops and the heart notes of jasmine appear, finishing with the sensation of lemon combined with strawberry and small herbal sparkles. Personally, it doesn’t have great longevity, a maximum of 4 hours. I recommend it for very hot climates, as being too citrusy, its performance in the cold is non-existent.

  It reminds me of homemade lemonade; at first it smells of very strong natural lemon, as if you’ve just squeezed one, then the intensity drops and the jasmine comes out, leaving at the end that citrus sensation with a touch of strawberry and small herbal sparkles. On my skin it lasts a maximum of 4 hours. I recommend it for very hot climates because, being so citrusy, it doesn’t work at all in the cold.

  UPDATE: I’ve finally bought it BUT… The one I tested in-store was my favourite; light, fresh, like freshly squeezed lemon water. Mine smells heavy, more lemon zest juice than water. The fig note is very prominent with a slight spicy kick. It’s my fourth from Perfumería and I think they bottle them fresh; the first few days they smell odd. The Leather Woody one smelled of rotten bergamot, improved over the days and was 90% similar to CH Men, but I sold it to a friend because the scent didn’t convince me (not the quality). The Sea Salt also started with a horrendous bitter citrus top note, but now it smells marine and floral, very good; it’s my fragrance of the week. To the Raw and Real I applied several sprays, shook the bottle and will let the oxygen do its magic for a few days to improve it; surely it’s due to lack of air while stored. FIRST REVIEW: Potent! I haven’t got it yet, but I tested it in the plaza and what strength. Before I passed Zara and Palacio de Hierro. I had Dior Sauvage, Cartier Noir, Hugo Boss, CH Men in my arms, Vibrant Leather and Violet Blossom on my chest, and Raw and Real on my wrist. Of all of them, this lasted all afternoon and well into the night. Fresh, not-too-sweet citrus dominate. I like that it doesn’t declare bergamot and you really can’t smell it. The florals are light but present. The dry-down leaves a sour lemon touch. The experience is like making lemon and orange water in the heat, drinking it in a flower garden, and smelling your fingers with lemon zest. Ideal for extreme heat; few sprays if you’re indoors but let it run wild at the beach or pool. I will definitely buy it by the end of the month.
