Eating watermelons and attracting wasps on the beach
Yeah, yeah, summer's coming to an end. Everyone who's sad probably does what everyone else would do. Try again on the warm days to drive to the lake or something, or at least still revel in memories of a beautiful summer with possible summer smells like Sun Bath or other smells. The coming week should be quite warm again on a few days, which would be the ideal opportunity to enjoy some more sunshine before it finally cools down.
Well, I'm finally looking forward to autumn, because Halloween is coming and there will be monster chips, muffins with ghostly sugar cakes or fruit gums in ghost shapes again. Besides, my memories of this summer aren't that great this year (*sob*), so I won't miss that much this summer :D
Anyway, for the sun worshippers among you I test this fragrance here and give away my mustard, if you could reserve the fragrance for next summer or not!
In any case, there is a pinch of sweetish-spicy pink pepper, but also slightly stuffy flowers (although these stuffy notes are not so bad). Striking is a strong, synthetic note, which is more pronounced here than one is used to from Jil Sander... well, this is not so disturbing, however, so that one can overlook it here times.
It still smells aquatic-salty with sweet notes, which now seem to come from musk. The watermelon is still present, which is quite nice, as this fruity note usually evaporates quite quickly. Sure, it's weaker now, but still smellable.
In the base the fragrance is slightly sweet (now with tonka bean), slightly salty, slightly spicy because of the pink pepper and of course still aquatic, plus more with light, synthetic notes. The fragrance also has a light, creamy aura that might even remind you a little of sunscreen.
Much later, however, after more than six hours, the fragrance smells mostly salty, synthetic and also no longer so good, as most of the more beautiful fragrances have faded away and the synthetic fragrances are therefore more in the foreground. At the latest then it is time to spray the fragrance again or wash it off :D
The shelf life is more than eight to ten hours, but as I said in the fragrance description above, I find that it no longer smells as good after five to six hours and should then be replaced.
Okay, the smell here is nothing out of the ordinary. It is neither really good nor really bad, but still belongs to the kind of fragrances that do not hurt because of their rather lower price and you also do nothing wrong if you use this fragrance for a summer time, if you like salty summer fragrances. In my opinion you can test it, but even in this price range there are probably better scents.
Yes, you could reserve it for next summer, if you are just looking for something "quick and easy"! Or, as is more common with perfumes and perfumes, still looking for another fragrance, because you can never have enough fragrances, as you are all such addicts! Not to mention that with a new fragrance you can also feed the "have me" list :DD
Until then autumn is coming and I'm already looking forward to chips like Monster Munch, he he he (yes, I'm still childish.... whatever...)!

The Scent:
Right at the beginning I smell watermelons. Shortly afterwards, the salty and aquatic notes begin. No, by the way, it doesn't look like you're madly sprinkling salt on watermelons (but something tells me that some lunatic has tried it before and then tried the salted melon! Probably even a perfume! :DD). No, it looks more like sitting on the beach under the warm sun and getting tasty watermelons out of the cooler for refreshment. And of course it attracts all the wasps and makes them scream, but that's another story... :DIn any case, there is a pinch of sweetish-spicy pink pepper, but also slightly stuffy flowers (although these stuffy notes are not so bad). Striking is a strong, synthetic note, which is more pronounced here than one is used to from Jil Sander... well, this is not so disturbing, however, so that one can overlook it here times.

Sillage and durability:
The silage of the fragrance is slightly weak. It still smells rather well from close up, but a few steps away you can only guess at it. The shelf life is more than eight to ten hours, but as I said in the fragrance description above, I find that it no longer smells as good after five to six hours and should then be replaced.
The flacon:
The sea-blue bottle is rectangular, with the side edges arched outwards. On the front you can see the well-known Jil Sander or Sun lettering in large white lettering. The lid is also white, which matches the colour of the bottle well. A simple, nice but also a little unspectacular bottle. Okay, the smell here is nothing out of the ordinary. It is neither really good nor really bad, but still belongs to the kind of fragrances that do not hurt because of their rather lower price and you also do nothing wrong if you use this fragrance for a summer time, if you like salty summer fragrances.
