The Sauvage Trap
I think the comparison with Sauvage leads us a bit on the wrong track, because CRAFTSMAN actually wants to go somewhere else. For me it is a fresh and green herbaceous, by no means old-fashioned fragrance, which remains true to the tradition of the brand. Before the test you should maybe think about the Tabac Man, which is a little bit outdated now, then the disappointment will hopefully stay away.
When sprayed on, citric and peppery notes predominate, and these are also the obvious parallels to Sauvage. The actual body, however, consists rather of rose geranium and lavender - at the latest I don't want to compare both scents with each other anymore. In the base note a not excessive sweetness is added, probably the tonka bean.
CRAFTSMAN is oriented to the top notes of modern mainstream perfumes like the one mentioned above and thus appears modern for the first time in the quick test, but unfolds a male character in the further course through his relaxed herbaceousness, which can't really be called classic, but is quite serious and somehow also well-sustained. Highly conspicuous and all too loud appearance is not possible with this men's fragrance. But there are other things for that, too.
After all, this green framework makes sure that he escapes the dreaded D-classification (D like shower gel) - you know, that's the maximum penalty for Parfumo at the moment! In my opinion, a paper strip test is much too short here, because you can't get far beyond the top note.
The potential wearer of the CRAFTSMAN could be, for example, a well-groomed, not negligent or old-fashioned, but also not like a vain, middle-aged man dressed as a dude, who has always used After Shave after the daily electric shave and only enters a perfumery when he wants to give a nice person a present. Your own scented water should smell good, but you shouldn't whine for attention either.
Recently I discovered in a big supermarket the complete care series of the four currently available TABAC fragrances side by side and on top of each other: Tabac Original, Gentle Men's Care, Tabac Man & Fire Power.
Actually very beautiful and also somehow sympathetic. Obviously, Mäurer & Wirtz consider quite carefully to whom/how/where the products are offered.
I liked that so much that I bought the deodorant stick from the CRAFTSMAN. By the way, it stays in this sauvage-like note and for this purpose I like it quite well, just like the counterpart of TABAC MAN. By the way, Mrs. Stulle also noticed once again that it smells pretty good. And that means something!
Again short:
a typical fragrance of the TABAC line, but fresher and more modern at the beginning. If you're looking for an exact copy of Sauvage, you're wrong here. If you want a modern, green spicy and reservedly sweet men's fragrance at a budget price: go for it!
