  Quite disappointed, to be honest. Hoping it needs time to settle. In my bottle, the opening is lemon and mint, here it recalls Álvarez Gómez Fraiche, though then the latter moves to neroli and they lose the resemblance. I notice more alcohol than in the AG. As it dries down, the fruits change and it starts to resemble Afternoon Swim a bit more. The problem is it’s already quite weak. The longevity is disappointing. Hoping in a month or two it gets closer to the original and improves. For now, I wouldn’t recommend it as an alternative to Afternoon Swim. Aether, as an alternative to Greenley, seems better in quality, similarity, and performance. Edit (04/08/24): The mandarin has shown up. Smells much better in the trail than on skin. Still has an alcoholic opening (though less) and the quality still seems low compared to others from the brand. Still isn’t an AS. To put a number, I’d say 70/75%. Not a bad perfume for the price, but it hasn’t convinced me.

  Good evening, mate. I respect that you smell it that way, but I don’t share that you don’t respect that I smell it differently. Regarding the grapefruit you mentioned, I only detect Methyl Pamplemousse, no juiciness. The lemon is high in Citral and the green mandarin from Pacific Chill is missing; it smells more like regular orange. I do note the C14 aldehyde (peach), but unlike the LV, it’s very weak. As for the rest of the fruits, forget it. My opinion is from my own bottle, which I left to macerate to see if it changes. I don’t know if yours has been aging longer or is a different batch. I don’t like to be snobby about ingredients, but I also don’t believe I have the ‘nose’ to ignore opinions. Every perfume is a world and every nose perceives it as they wish. Some will love it and some will hate it, and that’s beautiful. Otherwise, we’d all wear the same perfume. I’m glad you like it and use it. In my case, maybe someone else will agree, but not me. I’d appreciate if you wouldn’t question your perceptions with absolute truths, since your opinion serves some and mine serves others. Best regards.

  What a great fragrance for summer! The opening is a rich grapefruit mixed with a bit of orange, doesn’t smell like lemon as the first one says. It’s a D&G Forever style grapefruit but this one is more musky with green mint that refreshes. Does it resemble Pacific Chill? It has an air of it, but it’s nothing like a clone. I don’t find any peach notes. Totally unisex, a bit more masculine than Pacific. Longevity? Not bad, gives you about 4 hours. A treat for a summer boost.

  Smells like luxury and elegance, a 70% dupe of LV’s Pacific Chill which is a citrus bomb. On the opening, a sharp grapefruit recalls D&G’s Light Blue Forever but less acidic, with oranges and lemons (though not declared). As it dries down, roses, apricot, mint, and blackcurrants bloom over a base of ambroxan, wood, and musk that gives it masculinity while remaining unisex. It’s an Arab marvel, citrusy, floral, and creamy, ideal for summer. The key difference is the first 20 minutes are spicier and bitter due to lack of apricot, but then it matches the original. Its longevity beats LV: 6 hours on skin and over 12 on clothes. Projects strongly for the first hour, then becomes a personal bubble. I traveled from Miami to Santiago and woke up with my clothes still smelling of perfume and it still on my skin. It’s like the 3.0 version of Lacoste White, a love at first sniff.

  Simply wonderful, rich! Nothing synthetic, definitely for hot weather but I totally recommend it. A delight, if it’s a dupe of Pacific Chill and a well-made one.

  Simply wonderful, rich. Nothing synthetic, safe for heat but I recommend it 100%. A delight, if it’s a well-made dupe of Pacific Chill.

  Bought a decant and wow, what a rich fragrance, so rich! I’m picky about perfumes, hard for me to like anything, but this one won me over. Very rich, fresh, elegant, and unique. An ADN I’ve never smelled before. The only downside is it’s not sold here, I can imagine why… EDIT. Still seems perfect for spring/summer, though I note it’s somewhat unisex, even occasionally feminine. STILL, I use it with great pleasure.

  Bought a decant and wow, what a rich franchise! I’m picky about perfumes, really hard to find something I like, but this one hooked me. Very rich, fresh, elegant, and unique. An ADN I’ve never smelled before. The only downside is it’s not available to buy anywhere; I can already guess why… EDIT. Still seems beautiful for spring/summer, though I notice it’s somewhat unisex, even leaning feminine at times. STILL, I use it with great pleasure.

  Very good fragrance, for me one of the most natural scents among Arab perfumes. A pity about the longevity, it doesn’t last at all. Totally unisex.

  Very good fragrance; for me, it’s one of the most natural among Arab scents. Too bad it doesn’t last, barely noticeable. Totally unisex.

  Rich citrus aroma with a sweet touch; my only complaint is that it doesn’t last on the skin at all.

  Smells great, but fades quickly.
