Gillette Storm Force (2004)
by Gillette Series

What can i say i love a good cheapie Fragrance, and few give more bang for their buck than the Gillette Series. After already owning cool wave, i decided to hunt out for another member of the series. This is where i managed to pick up storm force for £2.80 on Ebay !

The Fragrance itself opens with a spicy blast alongside a melon/fruity note, as it enters the base notes storm force is quite pleasant. Even through its an aftershave i get a good 4-5 hours out of it in every use.

So if looking for a fragrance from the Gillette series, i would properly recommend cool wave more, but for £2.80 ! what harm can be done in picking up storm force at the same time !

Another well after shave made by Gilette! Not too easily found at least in my area... except at Pathmark.

Yes, after comparing Burberry in its engineering to not simply a scent a carsalesman would wear (or a youthful thug) but intrnsically a kind of carsalesman, intrinsically "queasy" and teetering, a review inspired by Storm Force, believe it or not... a review of Storm Force itself.

There is an initial fruit smell which for lack of a better reference is like melon/banana which gave me a brief but intense olfactory memory of Alain Delon. That first blunt force of Storm Force does not persist. There is a glimpse of mint freshness, not overwhelming, less teetering and some vanilla surrounded in wood.

The first 20 minutes of this long lasting scent are not the best for me. Thoughts of wanting just Pi by Givenchy

But it's worth the wait. For me, this is a more wearable scent than Burberry, with even better hints of incense, perhaps the occasional calculus of this $6 after shave.
