Best "clean man/office fragrance" on the market
The typical office fragrance. Not too intrusive, serious, elegant, well-groomed and above all fresh. Smells like freshly washed laundry only hornier. If there is a 100 safe scent for almost everything, it simply does not stand out negatively. The problem with this one is that maybe you don't stand out positively, because durability and sillage are rather weak (about 4 to 5 hours) but it doesn't matter who wants to smell like a fragrance tree in the office

Price performance is also absolutely okay. Flacon simple but still noble.
An absolute must have for the office area one simply cannot get around it.

Best "clean man/office smell" on the market!

Why always this Hate against shower gel scents
Chanel's flagship of the 2010's. New decade new fragrance preferences. While in the 80's one was still wearing perfumes that were herbily spicy in the 90's sweet fragrances à la Le Male, today it's the oh so hated "Fresh from the shower" (shower gel) fragrances".

The prelude is kept fresh. Pepper and mandarin dominate this happen. Later I add grapefruit and other fruity notes that I can't determine. Towards the end it becomes heavier by the sandalwood, but does not lose its freshness and timeless elegance. Sillage is in mediocrity, the shelf life but okay 7 hours you smell it.
Crowdpleaser par excellence. A perfume you can't go wrong with. Elegant yet seductive.

I know what you're thinking, how can he rate that lukewarm breeze so well, that young stupid guy? I always say you have to go with the times, back then there were outstanding fragrances but most of the fragrances of that time can be forgotten today, too old baked, too muggy, too monotonous. Doesn't mean there were bores back then!
That doesn't mean that there was more creativity back then, nor that there is a lack of creativity today. No. You just have to keep up with the times and Chanel does exactly that. Antaeus is a masterpiece that reflects the 80s. Loose-fitting sports jackets à la Sonny Crockett from Miami Vice, the shirt worn open up to the navel, including a bush of impenetrable black chest hair or just armpit hair à la Nena!

Every year we change ourselves, our habits change what was IN yesterday is OUT again today, and that's exactly how it is with fragrances. An Antaeus has no chance against a Bleu on today's market, nor would Bleu have had any chance against it if it had been published together with Antaeus in 1980.

If you're wondering why today only fresh from the shower is trendy, then look back at that time and look at the herbaceous heavyweights of the 80s.
He may not be perfect but for our time he is.

Btw. While writing this commentary I wore Anateus incredible exceptional perfume but absolutely no longer fits in our time

Lemon cake
What's there to say about Allure Homme? Chanel made more money with this fragrance at the end of the 90's than with any other men's fragrance before. Classic early 2000 he Chanel flatterer for the wide mass.

Smells for me very fresh in the top note, after lemon cake and creamy. Towards the end the lemon cake turns more into a vanilla-coconut ice cream.
Sillage and durability are Chanel standard 5 - 6 hours.

Price technically is this here overpriced nothing special. But I immediately realize why this one sells so well masses suitable!

It's like with today's music you ask what this song is called out of curiosity and forgot it 5 minutes later because it's just too irrelevant.

Italian flatterer
I tried the scent so many times before I bought it. I was always blown away by this Italian creation. Finally bought it a few years ago. After a few months he was totally boring and one-sided.

Smells the same for me from head to base note, like shaving foam. It may not be bad, but boring and annoying over time. I can understand that many like him and he sells well, he is not loveless but meaningless for me. Flattered just boring.

Sillage and shelf life in midfield 5 hours.

Nice to have had him but I will not buy him again, I prefer to stay at Proraso.

Clubbing - King of the U25 year olds
Had to test him once, as many times Jeremy introduced him. I'm a little disappointed and unimpressed at the same time. Scent is definitely for the younger audience so U 25 as well as for me!

For my nose it smells extremely of pear and mint and a little vanilla. To formulate it otherwise very sweet. Sillage is in the first moments very impressive plus point for it. Durability is also not bad 8 - 10 hours. It is always said that this one is the "Clubbing-King", I can also sign. Women in my age like sweet or shower gel scents which is not bad. Unfortunately I find that the scent of the great top note drifts into nothing. No longer fresh but sweet and sticky.

Too bad for me, I wish I'd liked the scent more. Can also understand absolutely why he is rated so good by some and so bad by others. All in all, it's a pity that it is discontinued, but I still don't need it in the collection!
