United Dreams One Summer by Benetton

Citrusy and sweet fragrance, it has that combination, it starts with a sparkling citrus touch, full bitter orange, it lasts like that for about an hour, then it changes to sweet, a bit cloying, not too much. At the opening it reminded me of Eternity Aqua, but only a little. That said, after 1 hour, when it turns sweet it is similar to Cool Your Body by Reebok. It has very short longevity, 2 hours, unfortunately. It’s a good perfume, it smells clean, but it doesn’t have good longevity, not even on clothes. I don’t recommend it, there are better ones.

What can I tell you about this perfume, actually its longevity is very light, it’s very nice. Let me clarify that I’m a beginner in perfumery and this perfume was given to me in an exchange, it smells very good and I think it’s ideal for teenagers from 16 to young people 25 years old. It smells a lot like citrus and a little sweet but after a few minutes you notice a little woody, I also perceive it as fresh, I even thought it had mint notes because that smell reached me but now I see it doesn’t have any. I recommend it for school, the gym, for somewhat hot afternoons, outings with friends, a pool party day, something like that. And as I mentioned at the beginning, it lasts very little, on me it lasted around 2 hours at most and I had to reapply. I used this perfume to go to university and it was my signature, I received many compliments and I really grew fond of it because it was my first authentic perfume that I had.

LONGEVITY: 15min projection, 4 hours on skin. Very poor performance in my case. SCENT: In the opening a very powerful citrus aroma of grapefruit, orange and lemon predominates, a very fresh aroma. Then with the dry-down the citrus aromas calm down, but in the background it stays and becomes a bit greener and floral. A light lavender aroma emerges as with a touch of mint and ginger, but as I said it stays citrusy and green. In the heart, woody and amber notes are listed. USES: It is an extremely summery scent due to its light naturalness. As its name “One Summer” indicates, it is ideal for everyday wear in summer or spring, its freshness makes it optimal for high temperatures. Its simplicity gives it a very youthful touch ideal for a teenager or even a child. SUMMARY: A light and simple scent that never fails. Very youthful and summery. Unfortunately with very poor performance which means you have to reapply several times during the day. Although the line was discontinued years ago. I would not recommend buying it since there are much more interesting options in this style.

DURATION: 15 minutes of projection, 4 hours on skin. Performance is very poor. SCENT: Opens with a potent citrus burst of grapefruit, orange and lemon, very fresh. As it dries, the citrus tones down, leaving a green and floral base with a light touch of lavender, mint and ginger, though it remains citrusy and green. The heart features woody notes and amber. USES: Extremely summery due to its light naturalness. As the name suggests, ‘One Summer’ is ideal for everyday summer or spring wear; its freshness makes it perfect for hot weather. Its simplicity gives it a youthful vibe, perfect for teenagers or even children. SYNTHESIS: A light, simple scent that never fails. Very youthful and summery. Unfortunately, the performance is very poor and you have to reapply several times a day. Although the line was discontinued years ago, I wouldn’t recommend it as there are far more interesting options of this style.

Dries identically to Animale. Super longevity.

What can I say? It’s very soft and short-lived, but the scent is top-notch. I’m new to perfumes and received it as a gift at a swap; it smells fantastic and I think it’s perfect for teenagers aged 16 up to young adults in their 20s. It has strong citrus notes with a sweet touch, but after a few minutes, you can detect a woody base. It also feels fresh; I almost thought it had mint because that note came through, but upon reflection, it doesn’t. I recommend it for school, the gym, hot afternoons, outings with friends or a pool party. As I said, it doesn’t last long; it managed about 2 hours for me before needing a reapplication. I used it for uni and it was my signature; I received many compliments and grew quite fond of it as it was my first original perfume.
