New Spirit Man
by Oriflame

Great concept, disappointing result. This scent is supposed to be a somewhat lighter and cheaper version of Acqua di Gio, it should be young, aquatic and bearing an almost unisex fresh cleanliness. It does smell good but it lasts way too short. Nevertheless the box and bottle are very young , modern and minimalistic, the price is very affordable so one might be easily tricked into buying it. On the other hand, even if the sensations are either vapid and short or far too sweet, it has very pleasant notes too: aquatic and citrus-fruity tones which make it suitable for hot weather. Suitable only to refresh, nor to truly smell good and for a long time. Maybe good only for the ones who want to smell that discreetly, that their fragrance is an entirely private thing, never to be sensed by anyone but the wearer.
