I’m growing here a full beard age!
The Indigo Flanker really excited me lately. Also the EDT seems to be quite useful for the strip test. And after they have with the Kastner just the EDP in action, that would be sprayed times fix on the back of the hand with option on purchase. And then it occurred to me again why I had planned half a year ago not to test any potential purchase candidates on the skin before work.
I’m not a pussy about men’s fragrances. I wear Fahrenheit, I wear Antaeus, Habit Rouge and so on. But if it’s as if I’ve just slapped a load of cheap aftershave into my décolleté and suddenly feel the need to hectically fumble around in my face in anticipation of sprouting beard hair, then somehow it’s over. Whereby the problem is probably less the concentrated masculinity itself, but rather this “proletoide” which the smell has for me. Just cheap aftershave of the brand “Isch-trag-nix-Parfömm-bin-isch-schwul-oder-was”.
The whole thing is a little less valuable:
All I smell for now is tarragon. Way too much too much too much. Vetiver, cinnamon and patchouli are trampled down mercilessly. Still, the whole thing seems pretty flat. The longer I wear the fragrance, the more this aftershave deodorant smell develops with this typical synthetic note, which is often found in cheap fragrances. Burberry’s not supposed to have that anymore. After 3 hours I still notice an ambry touch on the skin and some shower gel like freshness. Sure there’s no white musk mixed in?
Maybe the scent develops differently on male skin. Or in colder weather. In the meantime, he’s not an option for me. I’m afraid I can’t help thinking of a totally embarrassing wannabe guy. We had a guy at school who always wanted to do cool hip hoppers. Unfortunately he was physically somewhat retarded and in order to compensate his babyface and his child voice, he always made a full aggro. Of course, only to weaker people. A real creep and unfortunately I associate Mr. Burberry EDP with guys like him.
I’m sorry for everyone who likes the scent. You know, he can smell you differently again
