    Another stop at the Banana Republic fashion and fragrance house, trying out Wildblue Noir. It starts with a normal alcohol hit, then releases a soft coffee scent that, to my nose, blends with chocolate and leather. I can’t detect the other notes because the projection and trail are extremely low; after two hours, it’s barely detectable on the skin. It’s not ugly, on the contrary, but it’s clear it doesn’t last. The trail barely reaches half an hour, and I’m generous with it. It’s elegant and sober, for people over 30, ideal for work or formal and informal dates. Use it during the day, not for going out at night due to lack of projection. Best for autumn and especially spring. In short: a pleasant and sober perfume, but with very low trail and projection for use at work or on dates.

    Quite a fresh perfume that mixes a spicy note with cocoa. The performance is poor: barely an hour of projection and about 4 or 5 hours of longevity.

    A scent with a clean air vibe. The opening highlights a certain prickly sensation and a touch of honey. Medium longevity (about 3 hours on my skin and then very close to the skin). Suitable for any time of day, casual style. I tried it on a tester at a very good price (around 450 pesos in Argentina). I feel the selling price is a bit overpriced given the perfume, although for me it’s not bad at all.

    A very clean and seductive scent with a medium trail. Suede and vetiver stand out; the other notes require a sharper nose to detect them. I think it could use a bit more punch or something impactful to make it stand out… but taste is subjective.
