Super Gym scent!
Why? It has left my gym bag maybe 3 times, my go-to at the gym. Why not, the fragrance lends itself perfectly to this, light, citrusy, quite refreshing and ultimately it's called Sport. What I personally like a lot about this scent and thus it made it into my everyday life: it's not sweet. I have the problem with a lot of scents that don't pass for sweet to others ( Dylan Blue just gets super sweet shampoo smell, why???) that they get sweet on my skin, especially in heat. A scent that gets sweet on my skin anyway would just be annoying when exercising, and that's where the Aigner comes in, was even approached about the scent twice, sure, doesn't sound like much, but if you only wear the scent to the gym and get comments there other than "how many sets do you have left?" or "do you still need the dumbbell?", unexpected things like that are welcome and speak to the scent.

Scent: biggest pluses here: not really sweet and for the price also not very synthetic smelling. For me ne mint-apple-lemon story, much more comes through here actually such not, in the drydown you get maybe patchouli and something vetiver-like with, erwartets but no incredible depths, it is ultimately a perfume that carries the name Sport, and rightly so.

Performance: 5 hours, projection rather weak, for sports and office so perfect.

Flacon: Quite elegant, the bottle feels valuable, the lid is ( as well as the glass) thick and heavy, the leather sheathing on the lid is a nice detail. The atomizer here is also surprisingly good, sprays quite far I'd evenly. Only the sticker on the front is possibly a little disappointing, but for the price I will not complain there.

Price: Here the crucial point in my eyes: the price. I have the 50ml bottle for say and write 7.99€ ergattern can, since then I have honestly never seen the fragrance so cheap. 7,99€ for 50ml, that's probably the best perfume deal I've ever done. If I ever find this again (was then in Müller), I will buy 4 more bottles, for the price, the fragrance is outrageously good.

Conclusion: very pleasant citrus sports fragrance for ( hopefully ) little money, can wear anyone in any age group. If you know how to get the perfume so cheap, then let me know gladly ;)

2020 vs 2021
I ordered this fragrance 2020 blind after reading through the notes , Creed MI tried and found too weak for the price. I was thrilled, Milestone has definitely ne similarity to its golden role model, but 1:1 comments are just bullshit, the scents are not identical at all. Sure Creed is less synthetic, especially in the opening, but that would be pathetic at the price if not. The first moment after spraying on is sharp, smells a bit like synthetic mint, window cleaner possibly something to represent melon. After about 5 minutes the perfume starts to smell very pleasant and fresh. With the watermelon note comes an association in the head: 5Gum watermelon. That this fragrance reminds of the chewing gum have confirmed two other friends, but is also not meant negatively :) The smell of a fresh version of 5Gum actually remains almost over the entire course, to the end the perfume fades in a vetiver note.

But now my problem with this fragrance: yes, I mentioned that I bought this fragrance in 2020, 2020 batch isses too. But now I could smell a 2021 batch, not only it smells different, but also not nearly as long as the older version. There is hardly a trace of the melon in the new version, just smells like a cheap room spray. Almost everyone knows by now that Armaf imitates Creed fragrances, but that they have to copy the batch stories as well? I can't explain it any other way, fakes of a 20 Euro perfume would be really silly, but I'm sure in my feeling, just like some friends and my brother, I like to get other opinions. Possibly it was now on this one bottle, or the new versions all smell like this, I do not know, but the 2020 version is really better in ALL aspects.

Durability: not particularly long, but it is also a light summer fragrance ( MI yes also), 5 hours are in, but then not much more. One smells the fragrance almost only in a radius of 50cm, in a summer perfume not further disturbing.

Season: Summer, spring. Fresh, slightly fruity fragrance for everyday life. One will offend with it no one, in the office also absolutely portable, always brings positive comments.

Flacon: Golden, chunky cube with pointed edges, silly glitter stones and a cheap gold chain, well, Armaf is now not known for aesthetic design, but at least the bottle is quite heavy, as well as the lid, which you can only get off with force. My poor evaluation of the bottle results but only conditionally from the optics, but much more from the atomizer: under all sow, drooling and you can hardly speak of a mist.

Price: I got my bottle at the time for 20 euros, since then the price (everywhere I have encountered this fragrance) has gone up, but so far not immeasurable. If the current versions perhaps still smell like the 2020 variant, then clear purchase recommendation, for the price you could do nothing wrong, but the 2021 version (at least the one that I was allowed to try) is to use nothing.

Conclusion: 2020 version at the price top, for the second I would not spend a dime. If anyone of you has the new version or my experience shares ( or just not :), let me know gladly.

Lemon? Orange? Or maybe lime?
Yes, very funny, I know. After hundreds of reviews both here and on YouTube, I come up with the surprise: it smells like grapefruit, and to me actually pretty much just grapefruit with occasional detours to grapefruit. Well, not quite was, associated with grapefruit are aquatic notes, as with all Light Blue Flankers really, and vetiver, absolutely not earthy and green but rather light and fresh, as is everything about this perfume. It's being given to my father for his birthday, as I rubbed it in his nose at the airport and thus managed to get him excited, both my parents, and both could agree that the scent is totally unisex. I agree, more unisex does not go, just as universal is such the age, theoretically could wear the from old to young everyone, he simply always refreshes. Hardly sweet, very citrusy, slightly bitter and very fresh: in my eyes and those of my family a very successful summer fragrance so, after some failed flankers finally a solid Light Blue again.

Durability: for a fresh, citrusy fragrance not bad, 6 hours, projection in the first 2 hours about 1-1.5m, then it sits closer to the skin. Well, with a summer fragrance you theoretically do not want a room-filling performance beast, if so, you can always re-spray the "grapefruit juice", the wasps will love you.

Flacon: So far the most beautiful Light Blue flacon, beautiful heavy glass, the golden writing on the blue bottle and the color-contrasting lid, just pretty. The velvety cover of the box, which can be found in some other Dolce & Gabbana perfumes is nice, although I get a toothache when touching these covers, for whatever reason :D

Price: I paid just under 50€ for 100ml, I find with regard to quality of the content and the flacon pretty fair, but in addition it should be said that I would never lay down big money for fresh, aquatic summer fragrances.

Conclusion: with Light Blue Intense the best Light Blue, brings what new to the Light Blue series, without being overly synthetic, which was a big problem with the previous flankers, at least for me. Solid fresh fragrance for everyone and -woman.

Big mouth, much behind it
So, where to start here just... probably at the beginning. I have tested this fragrance with a very good friend in a nearby perfumery, after my nose of tens of fragrances has already slowly asked for mercy I still discovered this bottle very far down the shelf. Can you hardly overlook, black teddy with giant head and chokerchain, as discreet as the Moschino designer himself. Since I have heard a lot on YouTube, from price-performance to very feminine and to nothing to use I wanted to make me (as always) my own picture of this fragrance. At this point a tip: wait with the sniff. What do I mean by that? I sprayed it on, didn't wait and smelled it: BÄÄM, like a slap in the face hits me the pepper, my nose resists first and my friend, who is recovering from my reaction from laughing, asks directly after: " And? How isser?"
"White net, but that is hyped? Different smells the already, but good I would not say now."
So if you do not want to light your nose hair, wait after spraying 1-2 minutes, then the pepper settles and you get for the price by far the best rose scent, which I was allowed to smell so far. Roses, incense, pepper ( present for a very long time in the course, but only strong at the beginning) and something sweet ( whatever that may be) are the main roles for me. Very interesting, have sniffed it on my arm for hours, really great. After my following enthusiasm has given me this same friend Toy Boy for my birthday (thanks Daniel), thus followed the long-term test.

Fragrance: the rose comes across here sweet, almost candied, combined with pepper, incense, pear and balsamic notes an unusual, pleasant experience. Does not smell every day, comments come left and right, most often "Interesting", which I quite understand, with people without greater perfume experience sticks a fragrance that does not smell like Le Male or Acqua di Gio, well out of the crowd.

Wearability: For me, especially in autumn and winter, in spring in colder weather also quite wearable. Rather masculine, perhaps still unisex, but the numerous comments about the feminine side of the perfume I can not understand, for me pretty clearly masculine, pepper incense rose is in my eyes just not ( classic) feminine.

Flacon: black teddy, head in flacon size, silver collar and the name Toy Boy... What exactly did you expect, ever nen look at the brand and designers thrown?! Marketing clever, he gets exactly what he wants, attention, and rightly so. Extravagant? Sure. Flacon made of heavy glass, lid sits bombproof and the atomizer excellent, here can also much more expensive brands ne slice off.


Price: For the current prices more than worth a consideration, for me a clear must, but by no means a blind buy, tests the fragrance, preferably on the skin, on paper he does not come into its own. Have already smelled numerous fragrances for much higher prices, which are comparable neither in quality nor originality.

Conclusion: For me a hit the bull's eye (pun intended), unique fragrance with which you stand out, whether you want or not. If you look here price, quality and design, this fragrance is still very underestimated, take a look at it, if you next time in the perfumery of your confidence rumwatschelt.

Very strong projection
I bought this fragrance for a friend, because he likes very strong scents, scents that you can smell even after passing ne good while. Since he needed what for the winter, attaches importance to beautiful bottles and is not afraid of "alcoholic" fragrances, I was actually sure: bull's eye, he is blown away. For me it's nothing, for me it's headache-inducing, but for him it's ne grenade. Well what the heck, everyone should have different tastes, which I can evaluate despite the headache: Durability is quite good, projection just killer ( at 3 sprays it fills rooms without any problems) and then of course there is the bottle: just beautiful. Like the original Fahrenheit a pretty gradient of colour, the glass is thicker again making the bottle much heavier than its petrol soaked grandpa. The only thing that detracts from the aesthetic: the lid, somehow it just doesn't fit in there for me (and it doesn't feel particularly high quality either). If you're considering buying this fragrance blind: DON'T!!! He is really getting used to and anything but discreet, pretty much the exact opposite of office fragrance and actually only wearable at temperatures below 10 degrees, because otherwise you flatten noses of innocent fellow citizens.
