Neroli Nasimba

Is this the best Joop Homme reformulation there has been so far? No, it's Neroli Nasimba. It really smells almost 1:1 like the original. Yet, it's only mandarin orange, orange blossom, and vetiver that both fragrances have in common. Unlike the original Joop Homme, however, the twist is missing here. There is no honey, cinnamon, tobacco, or heliotrope. In addition, there is the leather base that is typical of many Crivellis.

The cardamom is initially beautiful to smell, accompanied by the tingling pink pepper. Quite quickly, both nuances recede, and neroli and orange blossom become increasingly clear. The leather, initially quite dominant, becomes increasingly supple and warm. What remains is a beautiful combination. Bright, warming, cheerful, extraordinary, and chic. For me, a unisex spring fragrance. It reminds me of a trip to Zimbabwe. The sight of the landscape in the warm evening light and the scent of the luxurious lodge. The fragrance puts a smile on my face!
