Pros & Cons
- ✅ This and essential are great sparkly, sweet, clean, fruity citrus fragrances, but many don't understand how sophisticated this fragrance actually is.
- ✅ Fresh, zingy, uplifting. It is like a woody citrus shower gel like other people have said except more fresh and sharper.
- ✅ One of the most under-rated scents imo. I love this cologne from top to bottom.
- ✅ This and essential are great sparkly, sweet, clean, fruity citrus fragrances... Very pleasant smell, not overpowering and over-spray friendly.
- ✅ Fresh, zingy, uplifting. It is like a woody citrus shower gel... Makes me feel modern and smart.
- ❌ Not a fan. Based on the listed notes I should like the smell... but it just does not work on my husband. At application, a really pungent artificial lemon screams in your face, but on drydown it faded to... well... something old and dried out.
- ❌ The most offensive thing about perfumery is EXTREMELY poor performance. I have had this for awhile now, moved it to the front line for my cold weather freshie. Expectations were low, it’s just another citrus freshie, but this is dismal.
- ❌ Smells meh and lasts for 1 hour max
- ❌ The most offensive thing about perfumery is EXTREMELY poor performance. I have had this for awhile now... Goes on bright and uplifting, but then within a short period of time…Nothing.
- ❌ Opens incredibly synthetic - like window cleaner... Exceptionally poor longevity.
