Dark lemon
Oops...no review yet...?
Well then, I'll get to work on the description.
I always have a phase in the fall...when it gets darker again, where I browse for perfumes...and then suddenly I get the passion...then I strike again uninhibitedly...until the bad conscience overcomes me, because I have already wasted hundreds of euros on fragrances again...when I already own over 100 pieces.
Intense Pride was a new one from Swiss Arabian that made me curious.
As I have had almost exclusively good experiences with the brand so far, of course I had to have it.
The very first impression after opening the package and the first spray was rather disappointing...I thought to myself, not my cup of tea, I'm more into gentlemen's fragrances or rather something gourmand.
But now a week has passed and when I gave it another chance, my impression has changed somewhat.
After applying it, I smell something fresh and dark at the same time.
I don't smell any smoke...but something tart and spicy and associations with dark berries could be there.
After a while, a beautiful lemon comes to the fore...an amalfi lemon that was previously dipped in a dark berry liqueur...and this ztrone is really high quality and cool.
The finish is then also completely unspectacular...the fragrance changes at some point into a subtle woody tone before it lays down to rest.
I have heard that this is supposed to be a so-called dupe to Creed Aventus, I can't judge that, but I don't think you can call it a dupe, because there are also some differences in the fragrance pyramid.
In general, I don't want to call so many fragrances dupes...just because there are similarities.
It is much more the case that the entire perfume industry is also only boiling with water and that nowadays mainly synthetically produced fragrances are used, by EVERYONE! The mass of perfumes could not be produced in any other way, there will certainly be somewhat higher quality ingredients, but these will then also be extremely expensive.
Seen in this light, I am always surprised at the great fragrances that are delivered, especially by the Arabs, and then at an insane price.
This candidate is certainly not one of the cheapest, but at under 40, it is a bank for this quality...and when I imagine that the "original" costs many times as much, then I am all the more pleased to have picked up this new fragrance from Swiss Arabian.
For me, it can be worn all year round.
The bottle is also great with a heavy metal cap and a good spray head.
Anyone who likes citrusy-woody mystical fragrances is certainly well served here.
