Is medioker the new "extreme"?
As an aperitif, a smoothie of pastel green lime and pale pink grapefruit, together very colourless and viscous, not a bit tangy or spicy. Served on a beach where lavender and artemisia don't grow, but coconut palms like from the travel brochure, gephotoshopped. It is windless and slightly humid, the sea* is lukewarm and cloudy, time feels leaden, the body sluggish. Instead of the expected holiday feeling, boredom is taking hold. The little sticks, graylings and leaves lying around are not suitable for a cosy campfire.
* Correction: Indoor swimming pool with beach wallpaper, the slight chlorine note I recognized only at the end.
Conclusion: Disappointing, lowest mainstream. Here with tempting ingredients (lime! Artemisia! Vetiver!) a theme was suggested (Cologne), and then foozled with cheapest ingredients. No cologne, certainly not extreme. And for men?! Not even for Bürscherl, rather something for the kindergarten, sweet enough it is
