Moschino Friends Men (2005)
by Moschino

This one starts out with a blast of citrus (the strongest I have ever came across) with the aroma of mandarin dominating the entirely opening, but not a pure mandarin, instead, a salty one, similar to the salinity in coastal regions. Anyway, a very potent fragrance, which becomes acceptable only after about 2 hours, where a semi-sweet chord appears and the opening notes decay a little bit.

Definitely leaned towards citrus-lovers.

Cold, dry, very dry!!! like the Atacama desert, lot's of synthetic, metallic lime going on here, strange scent, not necessarily bad, and certainly not obvious, however doesn't smell real, I would classify it as odd, intriguing and way to artificial. Fixation is BAD, after two hours is completely gone of your skin, well at least on mine was like that.

Just like industrialized orange juice... I mean much worse.
AWFUL.

I really, really like this scent. I will admit I favor lighter scents, especially citrus.
Sadly, though, so many colognes eventually cause my allergies or sinuses to revolt, and that was the case here. Lemon grass and verbena are culprits for me.

Starts with nice, fresh, round, a bit creamy sunny green citrus notes which last no longer than 10 seconds, enough though to say "What a nice summer fragrance it *could* have been!". Then a generic synthetic bitter-fresh mixture comes in the light, spoiling most of it... bit oh well. If you have in mind Moschino's own 'Cheap & Chic' statement, you could even proudly wear this one. It's just this: cheap smelling, but somehow chic. It's a statement that somehow captures the popular spirit of our time. Just mind the irony and wear this one between friends.
