Gourmandish spicy winter scent
So this is it, the grenade! My first blind buy and I was definitely not disappointed:

The opening literally slays you (in a positive sense) with vanilla, cinnamon and pepper. With me, the fragrance then remains similar for 8-10 hours, so it is a very straightforward scent progression.

What makes this fragrance really exciting is the yet very present pepper / cumin note. Thus, SPICEBOMB Extr. smells not only gourmandish sweet, but also a little animalic.

The bottle looks great, but is due to its plastic attachment / spray head unfortunately only a 8.5 of 10.

H/S are absolutely bombastic, as expected no other way.

An absolute must-have for fans of sweet winter fragrances

Solid sage / rose geranium everyday fragrance
That the YSL - Y EDP no groundbreaking fragrance experience holds, that is probably clear to everyone here. Nevertheless, I think the fragrance has its raison d'être, even if I personally am not a big fan of it.

Generally, I could divide the journey into 3 clear phases:

The opening is dominated by apple, ginger and citrus notes. Unfortunately, the apple comes across a bit artificial for me here, so that the association with my daily shampoo "Head & Shoulders" came to me immediately. Surely there are also men who like this, but for me it is a little too "youthful".

However...

The apple and citrus notes fade surprisingly quickly (10-15 minutes) and what remains is sage as the main note, supported by the rose geranium. The fragrance is from this point on so simply clean and has for me something of soap, which I find quite not bad. From here the fragrance is then also suitable for men ü25 ;-)

From many other fragrance notes that are specified, such as incense and tonka, is unfortunately missing any trace.

After about 6 hours on the skin then say goodbye to sage and rose geranium and what remains is actually the first time really masculine for my taste: it is the amber wood, which has not really shown up to now. This then sounds out another 2 hours, until finally nothing more is perceptible.

Conclusion:

It is opinion after a solid everyday fragrance without corners and edges, the opening is probably more suitable for the younger semester...

H/S are slightly above average and the bottle looks really classy in my opinion.

In my collection he will not stay, because for me the "certain something" is missing. For someone who is looking for a no-brainer (not meant negatively) and Ambroxanbomben like DIOR Sauvage & Co. would like to do without, YSL-Y EDP but a good alternative.

Romantic animal
I finally got myself a bottling of this fragrance after smelling it for the first time on a friend about 1 1/2 years ago. In my head I had only a strong smoky note, paired with another, rather untypical fragrance. Then when the bottling arrived and I smelled it I immediately recognized what fascinated me so much about this fragrance at the time: a smoky rose!

Compared to many other users I perceive the raspberry unfortunately hardly, however, the combination of rose and the strong incense is the purest revelation. The raspberry I could only imagine as a wild raspberry, so rather restrained instead of overly sweet smelling.

H/S of Ombre Nomade are so strong that a single spray is enough to please not only yourself for 10+ hours, but also those around you. Statement of my friends: your perfume is really unique and still fills the whole room at the end of the evening! (By the way, the fragrance came in my tests consistently well received, both by women and men)

I would describe the scent progression here as very linear, apart from a brief incense overload in the first 5-10 minutes. After that, incense and rose are present in a very balanced ratio and do not say goodbye even for now. On clothing, the fragrance lasts for days, so here you should be careful and possibly be aware that you can not wear the garment from the previous evening, for example, again in the office, without having washed it first.

Which brings us to the application: For me, the fragrance is perfect for an evening with friends / in the club. For's office I find him definitely too loud. The season is here for my taste no matter, although there are certainly people who find the fragrance for very warm days as too strong. Whether the fragrance suits you, of course, you have to decide for yourself, but I definitely see him on extroverted people.

Finally, I must say that even the price / performance ratio does not disappoint me, because you need much less of the fragrance than this is often the case with other colleagues in cheaper price ranges.

Conclusion: If you like to stand out and look for a uniquen fragrance romantic animalic therefore comes, then you should definitely try Ombre Nomade once.
