Straw hut meets sauna hut on the beach
On the way through the narrow beach paths past the parched bushes towards the cottage.

When spraying on I perceive a very strong straw-like note. The mint very subtle in the background. A very complex rounded fragrance DNA.

Subsequently, light resinous note paired with green nuances.

Best described with a light sauna infusion note in the straw hut :D

There is dry weathered driftwood lying around in front of the hut on the beach a few years ago. The air around the hut smells of dry wood.

A nice carefree mild tempered evening on the beach.
A scent actually melds with my imagination.

Appropriate name for this perfume.

An Amouage with pronounced long shelf life and strong sillage.

Rough, wild sea
A cool morning on the Pacific coast.
Early sports barefoot past the rough wildly roaring waves.
In some places the waves crash against the rough cliffs and their washed out rock formations.

At this moment, the cold wet wind blows past me right into my face with the spray of the crashing wave. A welcome cooling during the jogging's

A smell of seaweed, salt and undefined scent from the ocean depths rises to my nose.
Seagulls circle above me.
A cool, refreshing effervescent film of water in the form of a veil settles on my skin.

Megamare. A wild scent. Like the sea at the Pacific. Wild, fresh, seaweed, cool.

No Bora Bora, summer sun beach fragrance
A scent like a rough surf.
That's exactly how the sea smells.

Durability & Sillage: Outside of this World

Fragrance pyramid: quite inconspicuous change. From spraying on to dry down the fragrance DNA changes with me not particularly intense.

Sweet cocktail at the beach bar in Gran Canaria
This fragrance was a spontaneous purchase back in 2018 on holiday in Gran Canaria.
To me was then my beloved A&F Fierce banged on the floor in the hotel.
1 week smelled at least the bathroom dream

It was a sultry evening in Gran Canaria when I entered the perfumery and spontaneously tested myself in search of a holiday fragrance.

Then it was Y's turn.
Boom: what a strong scent DNA that was pulling around my nose. A total reset for my nose. Very unique at that time in its DNA.

Fruity, citrusy, with strong biting sweetness in the foreground. Actually, just right for a club night in a beach bar outdoors.

This is how it's supposed to be. So far, Y has always been on board for cocktail bars and summer nights out. Especially on vacation.

A fragrance with which I have never really smelled full to this day.
Sillage: very strong (even outdoors)

Fragrance Character: very sweet, but bearable. Good rounding. Not annoying.

Sage and apple clearly dominates here in the opening.

Cre(ed)(Aven)tus
Well, yes as the headline says, this fragrance is a similar fragrance to its luxurious, rich model Creed Aventus.

However, Cretus starts but own and with much more pronounced citrus opening for it without smoky accompaniment.

A very nice fragrance. Perfect for the summer, after the shower or for the short appearance in the supermarket.

Projection (3of 10)and durability (3 of 10) are rather weak to settle.
However, this fragrance must also not radiate so extreme.

Price / performance bomb. For such a price a summer bomb.

Thank you LPDO

End of the line homogeneity
Alexandria II starts for me at first slightly medicinal (caused by the oud)

After a few seconds, the scent on the skin becomes indescribable.

Indescribable in terms of homogeneity and complexity of the perceivable fragrances.


The ingredients fragrances in this "masterpiece" fit perfectly into each other, without the here a fragrance molecule uniformly dominates.

However, we must leave out the oud here. Oud is in itself an incredibly dominant ingredient. For this reason, the oud is the clear companion here over the entire time.

Towards the end in the dry down it changes as a predominant perceptible chord in the vanilla
