My longest lasting perfume, even in summer! Oudy and golden!
I got the perfume from my honored mother as a gift. Only after a relatively long time, however, I became aware of what a great treasure it is yet!

Scent:

Oud is not everyone's thing, so it is no different with this fragrance. He smells very dark, intense and typical of oud, I personally like it, even if not always. He is in my opinion not suitable for all occasions and for every style of clothing.

Sillage:

I had and know until now no fragrance that lasts as long and has been noticeable to others and even in summer, as this perfume. I had for example already some fragrances at work on, with none I was addressed so far, except on this. It's really long lasting, though, which is perhaps typical with oud scents.

Price performance:

Quality has its price ;-)

Conclusion: Oudig, golden and long-lasting!

The new 2021 of Sun Men perfume in dark orange! Square, practical, good!
Before I start, I would like to say first time: Watch out, he looks very similar to the old Sun Men of Jil Sander, even the packaging can deceive. The difference you notice, however, among other things, the color (the new is dark orange, the old yellow) and definitely in the scent!

- I was looking for a good summer fragrance that is "Eau de Parfum", smells fresh and is inexpensive, and I happened to come across this one.

The fragrance:

It smells sweet, almost powdery and somewhat similar to Prada Intense. It is very different from its predecessor. I personally like the fragrance.

The Sillage:

I tested it on test strips, also with Joop Absolute and Prada Intense. The longest has held Prada and and Jil Sander. I was to be honest even surprised that he has held so long on the test strips and still remained so intense, although it must be said that I have tested and compared the test strips only 1-2 hours. On clothing, the durability seems to be weaker, but perhaps it is also because I no longer notice him after a certain time.

The bottle:

It is thankfully flat and square so it fits nicely in a jacket pocket, handbag etc. Finally something you can carry around like a credit card.

Price performance:

I know so far no fragrance that is cheaper and is so suitable for the summer, as the new Jil-Sander.

Absolute recommendation.

A perfume that shows its strengths especially in the wind and cold
I think most know him from the drugstores, because he is known to be one of the very cheap perfumes. Many he is probably already times "run under the nose" or you have seen him at the one or the other. I guess he is also because of its size and the price segment a perfume that you can take everywhere without worrying.

The fragrance:

I personally like the scent very much, it is very intense, refreshing and sweet.

The sillage:

In winter and on windy days, I found the scent just bombastic. He flew in the true sense of the word all the time around my nose. It seemed like it was dancing around me like a swarm of bees.

In the summer, on the other hand, I found it short-smelling and fading quickly. However, better than any deodorant in my opinion. I would take it with me everywhere.

The price-performance ratio is very good in any case. He will truly accompany me for a long time.

A flower that only smells for a short time.
Who does not know him? After a long time I have dared and bought him

The scent is very nice, rather sweet, deeper and somehow special, it also does not smell cheap like others.

The bottle and the packaging are just absolutely high quality and ingeniously made.

However, the sillage is simply weak and disappointing in my opinion. After a few minutes, you take him unfortunately no longer perceived, but I used him only in the summer. Maybe he keeps longer in other seasons?

For me personally, rather not a fragrance that I would buy a second time. Eventually I try times the Eau de Parfum variant from.

Conclusion: Beautiful fragrance, with short breath.

Rather not for summer
I bought the Parfürm online at Douglas for about 86€ at 200 ml, a bargain! It was my first Eau de Parfürm, so I hoped for much.

The first thing I did was test it beforehand. I found it to be sweet, yet also dark and a little bitter, as if the sweetness was hiding behind an oriental oud mix.

The bottle seems high quality, the closure, however, you have to turn annoyingly until it hit the right spot and closes.

The sillage is rather weaker pronounced, at least in the summer. He seems also in this season awenig too heavy and exhausting. I look forward to trying him in the winter.

The fragrance itself is a matter of taste, I personally like it rather mediocre to good.
