Remember: Do not use sports fragrances to cover up sweat!
Hello hello and a nice evening everybody! As announced a few days ago, I rediscovered the L'Homme Idéal fragrances by Guerlain and wanted to try some of the new scents. After I recently described the L'Homme Idéal Intense, today it's the turn of the Sport Edition.
And yes, I know that most sports fragrances don't have a very good reputation here, apart from Chanel Allure Homme Sport, which many people still think is absolutely brilliant and still think that this fragrance would make the ladies' panties fall down in rows... which of course I have NEVER experienced, !!!!!!) *sigh*
Maaaaan, that kind of thing just takes you down so much that you don't feel like commenting, especially now that spring is just around the corner! So now only the short version of a comment is shown:
Scent: Good.
Sillage and shelf life: Okay.
Flacon: Nice.
Well, that's that, and I wish you all a very pleasant evening and... hey hey, I don't think you'd like a commie like that too much, would you? :D
All right, then I will enumerate a few details... :D
Of course, there's a nice sweetness here, too, which, as with most Idéal fragrances, is reminiscent of tonka bean, but I'd say that, especially at the beginning, you hardly notice the DNA of Idéal fragrances here. But never mind, because it smells really nice at the beginning, even if, as with the Intense fragrance recently, there should be a clearly noticeable mainstream aura, which means that the fragrance doesn't stand out much from other mainstream scents. However, this synthetic is not really disturbing, even if the heart note should become a little stronger from time to time. Also in the heart note, the citric scents become a bit weaker, otherwise it remains as usual.
A little later the synthetic goes down a bit, especially when the tonka bean-like sweetness reappears and you can even smell some neroli again. So it remains mostly in the base until the end, so that I find the fragrance quite well done.
The silage and the durability:*
Despite its warm sweetness, this scent is significantly weaker than the other Idéal scents, but that's how it should be, since the fragrance has been made fresher. On longer distances and in the long run this scent will not be noticeable. The shelf life is also noticeably shorter, as you can no longer smell the fragrance so well on the skin after just five hours.
I therefore think that this L'Homme Idéal is also worth a test, even if this is perhaps not really a must. Like most sports versions, this scent is more suitable for wearing on hot days than actually doing sports with the scent and then sweating and hoping that under all the sweat you will hopefully smell the scent more than the sweat... igitt :DD
I mean, I hope you all know that you should NEVER cover bad smells with deodorants or perfumes! After all, we no longer live in the France of 200 years ago, where whitewashing was commonplace, especially among the nobility :D
On the other hand there are surely enough dirty fellows among you... but that is a different topic here :D
Well then guys, I'm done again and wish you all a nice evening, see you next time! :)
