Another perfume with nuances of 1 Million ...
Having found myself with this perfume after a long time, and re-reading myself, has made me rethink what I had written about it, because I no longer feel that way. We know that the sense of smell develops and we expand olfactory horizons, so I preferred to delete my previous review, which did not fit what I currently perceive, and write this with my new point of view.

I like this perfume, but there have been times when it reminded me of "1 Million" by Paco Rabanne, and it bored me a bit, thank goodness it later changes, and although they continue to look alike, they develop a bit different.

The beginning is what I like most about perfume, here it reminds me a bit of Alfred Dunhill's Desire for a Men, very fruity and fresh, but soon cinnamon appears and begins to take on the tone of 1M, which remains almost all the life of perfume, but with nuances that are distancing it, little by little, from the proposal of Paco Rabanne. Then, its fruit load is reduced, and the floral notes emerge, along with a residual cinnamon stick. Here it still looks like 1M, but it is much thinner and more elegant, nothing shrill. The final drying of the fragrance, when the initial cinnamon sweetness was beginning to diminish, gives a plus of sweetness, vanilla-amber, finishing off a sweet, woody and resinous finish with a sprinkled floral hint. It is not bad, but the whiff of its clear inspiration has bored me a bit.

The duration is moderate low, I was smelling it for about 5 hours in leather with a discreet wake almost from the beginning, and from the first hour on the skin.

Recommended for evenings and nights and cool climates, although being so harmless, it could dress at any time and day of the year without problems.

Rainy Sunday to spray on
Who does not know, Saturday the most beautiful weather. Going for a walk, barbecue, drinking a beer with friends, sitting in the sun...
In the evening it becomes windy, rain announces itself, the next morning wet windows, clouds grey in grey, the wind continues to blow strongly and the rain drizzles away. For all the beautiful things that yesterday brought, you have to pay today. Everybody stays at home, nothing is planned and the skull is still buzzing because we didn't stay for a beer :-)
So it is a good idea to rummage out some old scents and after some time to revive the scent impressions.

Tendenza really begins fruity and at first still promising, a bright, clear top note makes a solid impression at first and something like joy comes up for a short moment.
From the heart note on, when the fruity one slowly disappears, the fragrance becomes as described above, the drydown turns into a mega boring little water, which seems to underline such a Sunday olfactory. A dull vanilla note in the background, here a sweet little flower and there a piece of wood Not only does it smell like the 1000000th Le Male copy, no, at that time I already had a fragrance that smelled the same 1:1, namely Maa arwaak by Rasasi. Also this scent seemed to me to be boring like fallen asleep feet. So I thought it was a pity that Van Gils, whose portfolio is quite small anyway, is putting such a boring scent on the market.

Nevertheless, Tendenza is good to wear on such a day, as it also has something soothing about it. It's too weak for everyday use, and not recommended for the office either, unless you want to take a nap on the keyboard.

Conclusion: A quite well made fragrance. Cinnamon, apple, lavender, vetiver, lily of the valley and musk are the most likely to be scented, but it gets very close to the skin very quickly and at least for me it doesn't offer a wow effect.
