Something weird happened with this perfume. I bought it because I absolutely loved it and wore it all the time, but one day I genuinely started to hate it. I couldn’t use it again because it made my stomach turn. It gave me that same feeling sometimes triple-decker sandwiches give me—I love them, but occasionally they make me nauseous, like they’re too rich or just a bit off.

I really loved this fragrance back in the day. It’s a slightly fresher take on the original Santos, yet quite complex, featuring citrus, floral notes, and a ton of spices, all very well-balanced. It’s been discontinued for quite some time now, which is a real shame. It might just be the best ‘Sport’ fragrance I’ve tried so far. The longevity and sillage are moderate-to-high, definitely above average. Highly recommended.
