The Ghost in the Shell

To me, it mainly smells like old rubber that has been sweating away in an attic in the summer heat for 30 years. Unfortunately, it also triggers a certain disgust in me. It is certainly very complex, and the idea behind it is immediately clear (cyborg skin scent), but I cannot understand the other reviews here that consider this a wearable fragrance they find pleasant.

I am completely thrilled with this perfume. Even though I personally missed the truly cold, synthetic element, I am still entirely convinced. Despite dry skin, the fragrance lasts about 7 hours without any issues, what more could you want? On the test strip, the perfume seemed significantly fresher due to the watery yuzu accord, whereas on my skin it appeared rather sweetish and creamy. To me, it created the impression of drinking a fruit milk after a hot bath; I think that's the best way to describe the scent for me. For me, the scent profile has an elegant simplicity reminiscent of a very luxurious body lotion. Somewhere in the middle, there is a metallic element that is hard to place; it gives the impression of a honeydew melon that was sliced, put in the fridge, and therefore absorbed that slightly metallic fridge smell that some might know. All in all, a great fragrance for me that is surprisingly wearable in everyday life.

An intriguing, though quite pleasant, perfume. At the opening, a chemical smell attacks the nostrils, followed by quite an overwhelming yuzu. A few minutes pass, then a rather strange smell of cat pee emerges, evolving into a mix of licorice and anise. After a few more minutes, a "floral shower gel" vibe appears, still with that rather disconcerting note of pastis.😂 I'll test it again in a few hours and let you know if it evolves again! EDIT: now, after more than an hour, it smells like cold plastic.
