The better cologne
I think this is one of the best fragrances in the low price category. In addition, it is very good as an after shave.

Just now I discovered it in the drugstore, because I was looking for an after-shave and was not willing to pay high sums for an after-shave.

It just smells like orange or tangerine peel. No sweetness present, but citrus-fresh. At the same time, it smells in no way like disinfectant, but relatively natural. As if you had rubbed an orange peel on your skin, nothing woody or anything like that, as explained in the description. This fragrance is definitely different from the cologne range and has its own unique character.

A very purist fragrance just, which focuses only on a fragrance note. Therefore, it is just perfect for layering.
I sprayed a few hours ago the perfume (not EDP) of One Million, which apparently came out quite new, on my hand. The scent struck me as being viiiitely too heavy, sweet and penetrating. Although I am absolutely not a fan of layering, I put a teeny tiny spray of Remix Cologne Edition on it from afar so that it would take away that heaviness and enormous sweetness. In doing so, I had no intention of creating a good scent combination. But it just fit perfectly. It smells like a scent I've been searching for... ...like lemon and orange cake, and I love it. I think for layering it is suitable on particularly heavy scents (perfumes) that are a bit too heavy for you and have vanilla, sweet accents. But you should really only apply a very, very small amount, otherwise the Remix Cologne stands out too much.

Some users describe the fragrance as very feminine. I can absolutely not agree. The other fragrances from this series (jasmine and rose) are definitely very feminine. But this one is also very suitable for men in my opinion. It's unisex, however I didn't detect anything feminine or masculine about the scent at all. It just smells like oramgen peel, what is feminine or masculine about it? But that is of course always a personal question.

For work and everyday life, I can absolutely recommend it, because it is not at all intrusive or erotic in any way as a cologne and no one will find it unpleasant. Such gentle purist fragrances are best suited for work in the office and seem trustworthy. An erotic fragrance, for example, would be very inappropriate there, although many people often do.

All in all, it is one of the better fragrances of the lower price segment, which is very suitable for work in the office, as it will not bother anyone and very good for layering with some fragrances

Getting Used To
Many associate Pitralon with their grandfathers and memories of childhood. Such emotions are of course something special.

My grandfather, however, fortunately never used Pitralon and I have no other associations with it. Therefore, I think it may be the worst perfume I have smelled.

As I said, I can understand why some might like it, as it brings back memories

One of the most versatile fragrances
I was lucky enough to be able to try it directly at the Nishane house in Maçka, a luxury and fashion district of Istanbul.

At first it reminded me quite a bit of Aventus-Creed, even if it didn't smell exactly the same.
But then after a while it started to go in a totally different direction. Woody notes, then also definitely something creamy-mossy, citrusy and the pineapple note starts to move further and further into the background. The scent progression is so enormous that I can't keep it all in my head. I just enjoyed it.

I'm not a big fan of extreme changes in the course of the fragrance (that's why 0.5 stars deduction in the fragrance rating) , but with this fragrance it is really something special. It feels like you apply a completely different perfume every 10 minutes. Really interesting and successful I think.

To the sillage and durability I can give nothing but 10 points. I'm sorry, but who distributes no 10 points in the durability and especially in the sillage, in which I doubt that he has tested this fragrance. One smells the fragrance even from a great distance.

The only flaw is in my opinion the price. 50 ml are here but enormously productive, which is why I find it not too bad

The original
Thanks to this forum I tested this fragrance for the first time, as I was looking for an alternative to Eisenberg J'ose. Because of Eisenberg's miserable performance I didn't buy it for years, although I liked the fragrance very much despite its somewhat synthetic vein.

Right after spraying it on the test strip I thought: Wow! That really smells like Eisenberg J'ose. Just a teeny bit sweeter in the opening. Personally a little bit too sweet for me, but still everything is fine. I like sweet scents as long as the sweetness is not enormous.

I will not go into the components. Just imagine Eisenberg J'ose with a slightly sweeter opening. That's pretty much it. No big changes in the rest of the course (which I think is good in this case), until the sweetness and later the flowery nuances diminish a bit

The durability is average. It lasts, at least for me, about 4-5 hours. The sillage is medium to slightly strong.

Thank God I found this scent. I noticed that Eisenberg J'ose is simply a worse and more expensive copy of this scent. After all, Rocha's Man appeared earlier. This one will definitely get a place on my shelf.

One of my favorite scents
One of my favourite scents among the "department store scents". If only it weren't for its incredibly poor shelf life. To deliver such a bad performance for the price is almost an impertinence.

I had already acquired Eisenberg J'Ose several times. However, last year I decided not to buy it anymore. Almost 60€ for 30 ml and such a miserable performance.

On my skin, as well as on the skin of several friends and acquaintances, the scent disappears within half an hour at most!

I have nothing to criticize about the low sillage. Some manufacturers deliberately keep their fragrances mild

I hope that the durability will be improved. Until then, I'm most likely not ready to buy the scent again
