Is he gonna hit like a meteor?

In my opinion, it is for a long time the first new perfume from LV, which may fully integrate into the classic men's fragrance line of LV's. I have also sniffed all and am a fan of Sur La Route, L'Immensite, Au Hasard or Orage...

Does it hit like a meteor? With me, yes, but he also calms down again and becomes very pleasant... One perceives the fresh bergamot and fine citrus peels very much and in the peppery combination he comes across very dominant at first... A certain pleasant sweetness makes everything very suitable.

The durability is enormous, with me easily 7-8 hours, which is a mega performance for a citrus fragrance. On clothes even longer... (and comes to that with my skin is always given shorter shelf life)

The silage is enormous at the beginning. In the room, you can then also clearly perceive him... and you can feel his scent aura... you can perceive him easily 3-4 hours until he becomes Hautnah.

The Flacon is simply the LV... beautiful shape, great magnetic closure and one of the best spray heads. Advantage that you can let him refill and it then becomes cheaper.

As with all fragrances, everyone must form his own opinion.
Anyway, you smell the exclusivity and the high quality of this perfume what you can expect even for the proud price.

I find no comparison with another fragrance, as others had described here, and also definitely not to shower gel. But is also so that you have to like citrus / peppery scents.

I find him perfectly suited for spring / summer / autumn

A great new fragrance composition I can only recommend, but test him out anyway better before, before you spend a proud Summer:-)

Finally, some good news from Louis Vuitton?

This time I have to be honest, because this fragrance is extremely good and also the allegory to the name fits perfectly. But I can understand the reluctance of some people, Météore is by its freshness combined with spiciness about what a man must like, I could find the same with Viking. At first I thought to myself, what is coming to me now, but after 20 minutes Météore starts to show its unique aura. Météore smells so unbelievably pure fresh and slightly spicy and never obtrusive. I also have to contradict the similarity to CK one Météore is much spicier and better in performance. I have also received many compliments for Météore. I can only say for myself The bottle will be ordered from Louis Vuitton in the next few days, because Météore really captivated me.

Rich beauty in an aquarium ?

Oh, I've been waiting for a fragrance like this for a long time. For so long I had no fragrance of the category Shower Scent/Aquat under my nose and now a perfume comes out of an unusual corner. Louis Vuitton Meteore is the name of the good one and belongs to one of the more unloved ones of the brand. Too much standard and too much money for what's on offer is complained about here and not without reason. But with the well-known LV nuance which makes certain things different than other fragrances
In general, it seems that aquatics are among the weaker representatives among the valuations. If there are no outstanding characteristics I would accept this. Rarely do aquatics really manage to break through the 8.0 mark and get stuck there. Too often they remind me of shower gel and everything you can get at the drugstore. I have to admit that my own assessments have also often followed this pattern. If I have noticed even a touch of shower gel in a fragrance, the respective scent has been stamped by me.
So far there were only two representatives that I valued a little higher, had in the collection myself and also liked to use. Once it was the reformulation of Invictus Aqua, which I personally liked very much before my perfume time. The other was Costa Azzurra or Costa Azzurra Aqua. These representatives of the Aquat category have convinced me and I remember them with pleasure.

So what is the problem with scents from this category that even a fine representative like this one is punished like this ?

On the one hand the already described problem that during the first spraying the differences are not noticeable which justify the extra charge compared to a Rasasi Hawas or Drogerieaquaten. I absolutely agree with this, but I do not do justice to the fragrance in its development.
On the other hand, it is probably the fact that the quality of these fragrances can be less filtered out than, for example, oriental or gourmand fragrances. I have to agree with this objection as well.

So why am I giving this fragrance an 8.5 ?
This is simply due to the development of this fragrance and the performance that goes with it. Because after about four hours, the fragrance starts to detach itself from the allure of the aquatics and develop in a very masculine and noble direction. Less aquat, more pepper, vetiver, nutmeg and cardamom. In addition something woody and bitter. He then sniffs very wealthy and exclusive compared to my first impression, which I have reproduced in my statement.
It is joined by an - for the fragrances category - amazing performance that I have rarely experienced. On my skin the Costa Azzurra was similar, but this one is even better. The first 2 hours the scent radiates well and you notice that you are wearing a nice and fresh scent. With a good conscience I can also give the fragrance a durability of 8 hours+, which really surprised me (at around 20 degrees). I didn't expect this at the beginning and I'm even more happy at the end.

Figuratively I imagine a man in front of me coming off the golf course in a polo shirt. He is in his mid-thirties and very successful in his profession. A man of action, who doesn't take any notice and seems a bit arrogant. After he has finished golf, he gets into his Lamgorghini convertible and drives away. Simply the expression of sporty, noble, fresh and a little bit of male arrogance.

It's just this little trick, that the fragrance goes through these development steps after hours, coupled with the durability, that makes the fragrance so attractive again in a way that you might consider to take a stab at half a bottle.

For this fragrance, I would even throw my Acqua di Gio Profumo out of the collection, because despite its shower gel start, it becomes so noble and simply looks fresher, more modern and smart.

"I thought it was shower gel."

That was my friend's comment when I asked her how she liked the perfume and that describes the scent very well.
The Meteore smells at first, in my opinion, like most ordinary Nivea drugstore shower gels fresh, aquatic, with some pepper spice. After a few hours, however, it then opens up some complexity, it softens and the aquatic notes fade a bit, but remain noticeably.

Positively to emphasize, is the durability. On a test strip one perceives the still after more than a week, on my skin definitely longer than a day.

All in all, a quite solid Aquat with an extreme durability, but whose price in my opinion is out of proportion

Cultivated boredom

Now LV ventures into the depths of space with his sixth and newest creation for the Lord, albeit initially only olfactory. Very ambitiously I would say. I don't know what you associate with a meteor, but I can think of attributes like stony, icy, metallic, cold, odourless. I would have expected a fragrance with this name/theme from CdG, but not from a leather goods specialist. So be it.
But what about the above-mentioned attributes, do they match the fragrance? From my point of view: No.

Admittedly, the fragrance starts with a fresh minty note (even if this is not listed in the fragrance pyramid), which one might still associate with "cool". It is possible that this cool start is also conveyed by cardamom, which is listed in the fragrance pyramid. But soon a citric fresh and slightly aquatic scent is added, which quickly takes the sceptre in its hand and remains the key to the further course of the fragrance.

Unfortunately, the fragrance offers nothing really new at this stage. It's just kind of dribbling away. The citrus notes are held in check by the pepper in the middle section. Everything appears rather reserved and unobtrusive. But it's precisely this light aquatic base that I find very disturbing in the long run. Also I can't avoid the feeling of having smelled this fragrance a thousand times before. I don't want to name any comparisons here, as for me they are rather nameless standard mash. The scent lacks edges and corners and the proximity to generic scents cannot be denied. That may not be a bad thing per se, but for a niche perfume in this price range, it's simply not acceptable
Let's get to the last part. Like I said, there's not really much happening. In the base, vetiver is listed. According to the LV, it is a specially extracted type of vetiver that has been freed from the smoky components and emphasizes the earthy parts. That certainly doesn't sound bad, but for me this doesn't open up any new scent impressions. It remains: cultivated boredom.

From my point of view, this is certainly the weakest LV fragrance in the men's line and dispensable. On the positive side, the durability is surprisingly good at 6-7 hours. But what's the use if the fragrance itself is not convincing and does not provide any surprise moments?
