An "APOM pour homme" with fruit and vanilla
Apple in the top note?
Oh no, we already know this enough by now.
Orange blossom in the base note?
So like so many other creations. I like this fragrance, but for others it is too rich, stuffy and dense. At "APOM pour homme" a nice perfumer once said that you could literally cut this powdery orange blossom scent in the air. Greetings go out to the perfume I know he reads along ;)
Oh yes, and then there is the meanwhile quite inflationary used vanilla in the base, which is almost obligatory for today's new releases.
All the notes I have listed are in a fragrance that is in the lower price segment. My perhaps snobbish perfume nose could turn upside down now, but for me in particular - no - for us, it's important to get rid of fixed mindsets and not succumb to stereotypes. I probably don't need to explain the stereotypes of cheap scented water.
But how does it smell:
Well, it smells pretty good, actually. The not too sweet apple is thrown into a field of orange blossoms at the beginning. Those are apparently not yet fully grown and therefore clearly perceptible, but not overwhelming or too luxuriant. I even perceive its smell as somewhat airy, which is very unusual for this plant. In the later course of the fragrance, vanilla joins in, providing a little more warmth and depth and pleasantly rounding off the overall composition without causing a diabetic shock to the wearer.
I would also like to mention - and this is actually the most important thing about this comment for me - that I see certain parallels to Kurkdjian's "APOM pour homme". "APOM pour homme" may perhaps cling more strongly to the wearer's skin and be more communicative towards his environment, but its orange blossom theme is somehow also to be found in "Classic Gold". The orange blossom notes implemented in both fragrances have quite similar scents. Finally, the difference is that in Jaguar, the flower is decorated with a little fruit and is by far not as dense and stuffy as in Kurkdjian's Classics (for me, this is one) due to powdery amber and dry cedar.
Conclusion: I like both scents and the Jaguar surprised me very much, considering what is offered here for little money. Due to its transparency, "Classic Gold" is extremely suitable for everyday use, but also edgeless, which might be a bit dull for some people. But there must also be such fragrances - and this is mentioned often enough here in the forum.
