The most masculine among the pile drivers so far
Wow! After I can now already call some fragrances of the really good and extraordinary Rammstein collection my own, and now also the latest fragrance has found its way into my home, I see myself prompted to dedicate this fragrance series times a review.

Started the entry into the series for me with the original cocaine Intense, which I see today as the weakest of the series, because it does not have the high quality as the following flankers. Just a bit too synthetic for my taste. The Black Ash as well as the Black and White Intense have then already inspired me far more. Now joins so also the cocaine gold to my collection, around which it should go here of course mainly.

For me, the cocaine gold to the aforementioned fragrances again one on it. From the beginning, a beautiful leather note dominates. I associate with it a rough suede. But not superimposed or unnatural, but very gentle and noble. But since leather is not listed as a fragrance note, I suspect this scent impression from a combination of the copaiba balsam used and the turmeric. Frankincense is also clearly perceptible, but not as pungent and dominant as, for example, the White Intense. Rather gentle and substantively consistent with the rest of the composition. More like an incense fragrance oil. In the heart note then join the citrus notes, whereby for me the bitter orange stands out the most. As it wears, the strong leather association recedes somewhat, but remains perceptible throughout the fragrance. In the base, the whole thing is rounded off with some vetiver and amber, which makes the fragrance softer on the one hand, but also gives it even more depth and some earthiness. Over all lies a, I call you times light cream note of the copaiba balsam. Similar to a skin cream, but just supplemented by the leather, incense and bitter citrus notes.

The whole thing seems very coherent and homogeneous in its overall composition. If you leave the leather scent once outside, the rest of the fragrance reminds me in some ways of the smell of the shower gel Mature from Axe, but without any shower gel vibe, more like packaged in cream form. Kind of masculine and mature. Maybe even a touch oldschool, but embedded by the other fragrance notes so that the fragrance gets a modern and independent twist. Especially now in the fall dressed with a leather jacket absolutely appropriate. Somewhat gloomy, masculine, but also cuddly, warm and sensual. More Ü30 than U30, but allowed is what pleases and what suits the wearer.

For 30.00 € you get here really an absolutely brilliant fragrance for the colder season of the qualitatively, as already the other Rammstein Flanker, clearly stands out from the other drugstore fragrances. Clearly tending towards niche and certainly not everyone's taste. But that is also quite positive. Einheitsbrei we have in our time yes already enough ;)

I'm feeling supersonic, give me gin and vetiver...
...or something like that. After I can already call the original EN and the a l'extreme my own, I now wanted to add the sport variant to my collection. The first two needed with me something until I could really make friends with you. But in the meantime I have found quite a liking for these not quite simple fragrances. It's just that the situations in which you can wear them are a bit rare. After almost everywhere to read that the sport version is the most portable of the three, I wanted to give this then also a chance, and to take it in advance: It is.

The opening starts similar to the original EN, green, tart, woody. However, you quickly notice the grapefruit, which takes it in a fresher direction. The fragrance seems in its way friendlier than its two brothers and also much lighter, which makes him wearable on warmer days. However, I would still avoid wearing it in the absolute height of summer. On a cooler or rainy day in the summer, though, it works just fine. Immediately after spraying it on, going back to the headline, I get a gin and tonic vibe which I really like. After a short while, though, the woody and earthy of the vetiver picks up. The initial freshness of the grapefruit fades into the background a bit, but the lavender becomes more prominent. Nutmeg is also slightly perceptible.

Similarity with Grey Vetiver of TF is quite present. However, the GV puts the emphasis more on the tart, citrus freshness, the ENS then but rather on the woody and earthy. So you could say that GV is the fresher, cleaner version of a vetiver scent, while ENS stays true to its roots and forms the darker counterpart. The Yin Yang of vetiver fragrances.

The durability of the ENS is not outstanding, however. Comparable to the current a l'extrem variant, rather something below. Nevertheless, one perceives the fragrance every now and then. A great sillage, however, he has not. After a good 1-2 hours, the whole thing then plays out rather close to the skin. From the clothes, however, it radiates a little longer, where I have the feeling that the floral lavender note comes out stronger. Directly on the skin, the woody remains the main theme.

So if you're looking for a lighter and fresher version with the original EN DNA, ENS is certainly well served. Who wants it even fresher and more portable, which should look at the GV once closer

From searching and finding your own scent preferences...
With fragrances it is such a thing... Some inspire you right away, in others you have to smell yourself pure. Some fragrances that you may have felt in the past as unwearable, you would not want to miss today and accompany you for the next few years or forever, with others you can not explain again, what you once found in these fragrances or how you could wear them. Even if Just Rock is certainly not bad and was worn by me in the fall and winter 2019/2020 gladly and often, but I had to realize in the past winter season that I almost no longer reached for him and other fragrances clearly had priority. Thus, the Z&V then but meanwhile unfortunately falls into the second category of the above-mentioned fragrances.

I prefer in the cold season stronger and spicy fragrances. Incense may occur very gladly in it, and this delivers the Z&V also in large quantities. However, what increasingly bothers me about this fragrance is the somewhat intrusive and powdery sweetness of the vanilla in combination with the tonka bean. The durability is phenomenal. 12 + are definitely in there with me. Only unfortunately, the fragrance does not go through a real development. What you get from the first spray, that can be found even after hours on the skin, and on the clothes even longer. The fragrance becomes in the course of this only a little sweeter. Basically, I find some sweetness in the cold season also ok, but here this comes across to me but a little too synthetic. Quasi an all overlaying powder of artificial vanilla. Even the last time I wore this fragrance in January, I didn't feel 100% comfortable with it. When I was then still asked whether this is really a men's perfume, it has given me then somehow the rest :-D Do you know when you suddenly can no longer identify with a fragrance, a piece of clothing or whatever and you then suddenly and unconsciously also exudes this?

Who favors sweet fragrances with lots of vanilla, which should still sniff this fragrance. Really "rock" does nothing to the fragrance but unfortunately. I would recommend it in principle rather for U 30. Personally, this fragrance unfortunately no longer gives me much. Since I prefer, for example, Versace Oud Noir, Joop Homme Absolut (with more charisma and durability would be the real hammer) or the Prada Luna Rossa Black.

On the other hand, however, it is also interesting to see how one's own sense of smell and the preference of certain fragrances always develops further, once you start on the journey into the world of fragrances. I had some great moments and memories with Just Rock, but now it's time to move on after all.

Not fish, not meat
Oh dear, my first comment here, and then unfortunately immediately a Veriss ? I ordered the fragrance blind, hoping to get a fragrance that comes close to the original version of CW. I still have a bottle from the early nineties, which was probably given to me as my first perfume. Unfortunately, the fragrance has since been tipped and is therefore no longer usable. But the actual DNA is still recognizable. So I thought to myself, you can't go far wrong with Tres Nuit after all.... To the many comparisons with GIT I can unfortunately say nothing, because the me has not yet come under the nose.

What bothers me with the Tres Nuit unfortunately, is the fact that he can not really decide within the real short time in which one perceives the fragrance, what he wants to be now. Freshy or rather floral sweetish. The fragrance starts with a fresh note, which is already reminiscent of the CW. However, the Veillchen note adds a rather disturbing for me floral, slightly powdery note, which takes the fragrance something at pure freshness. In addition, there is a slightly sweet note, so that the fragrance in the drydown but very much away from the pure freshness of a CW. Personally, I would like to use a fragrance with appropriate DNA occasionally when I just want to have that aquatic freshness, which is quite fitting for me right now as the weather is getting sunnier and warmer again. The Tres Nuit offers with that unfortunately not. Many who rate the fragrance here quite positively may now disagree with me, but for me the fragrance just smells after what you pay for it...somehow cheap and unpleasantly intrusive. Freshness overlaid with powdery, floral sweetness. Neither fish nor fowl just to conclude with the headline.
