The dentist in the coniferous forest
Ok, the headline sounds like the title of a very, very bad C-Movie from the horror genre.
But Karl's walk through the woods is not quite so scary after all.
The association to the - but actually quite unpopular - dentist, was my first feeling directly after applying this EdT`s.
In fact, at the beginning, a rather unpleasant note of alcohol disinfectant surges around your nose.
Fortunately, this stops quite quickly and the actual scents can gradually unfold.
Here too (similar to my test for Lanvin`s "Oxygen") a lush coniferous forest green is the main actor. Accompanied by a fruity note a nice scent composition develops, which I could not smell anywhere else.
Kapsule Woody does not become high-class, but the individual components are too simple for that. In comparison "Oxygen" is much more complex and inscrutable.
But I am also pretty sure that Karl Lagerfeld did not want to develop a fragrance of the century with this.
Straight, green, with sweet fruit (whether it really should be plum...?).
What you see, is what you get.
Durability is quite remarkable, the sillage is reserved for the wearer and very densely moving people.
Therefore Kapsule Woody is absolutely suitable for the office and fits colleagues with sensitive noses.
If I were to assign a season to the fragrance, it would probably be the transition from summer to rainy autumn. Even milder summer days I still consider suitable.
Price/performance is simply right here. Let's be honest...for just under 15 Euro (30 ml) you get a solid fragrance that doesn't want to make big jumps.
If Kapsule Woody were at Tinder, he would probably be swept away because of his unspectacular appearance. But at least he's an honest man and not a phony Those are actually my favorites
You probably get even better for the money but as so often, personal taste is the deciding factor here.
For me this is a typical Nice to Have fragrance.
When it's used up... okay. But then our ways will part and it will remain a nice memory.
