The citrusy-spicy woodsy artificiality of OTB has similarities with the sinthetic contrasts (ozonic-citrusy liquidity against woodsy-soapy or powdery-milky notes) of some fragrances as Ultraviolet, Midnight Poison (which is anyway much more refined and changing) or Bang by Jacobs. The final issue is a lemony and spicy woodsy soap too synthetic and artificial to be worn proudly at office or for a night out even if the smell becomes almost pleasant many hours later when the chemical beat fades and the leathery-spicy touch emerges from the hell. I detect a touch of pepper in the composition. Passing time the dust starts fading while the lemon persists stout and the fragrance becomes smoother with its final accord of musk, amber and benzoin (may be vanilla). At this point of development the chemical link of cedar, spices, may be a touch of incense or galbanum and suede is a bit powdery and talky. In a while i detect a rising note of cedar that is sweet and salty-bitter at once. Clothing, accessories and - starting in 1996, in cooperation with L’Oreal - fragrances are marketed mainly to young adults with innovative and sometimes eclectic marketing, such as cologne flacons shaped like fists or industrial spray bottles.As well as you inhale the first sniff from your wrist you are dreadfully fisted by a pumping geyser of chemical-ozonic lemon plus synthetic suede and prickly spices (clove and cinnamon under my nose). Warm, rich amber and labdanum combine with the ever-present leather notes and resinous benzoin and styrax to surround the wearer for hours.įounded by Renzo Rosso in 1978, Diesel is an Italian fashion company best known for its denims and leathers. The earthy heart uses cedar, violet and coriander to contrast the citrus opening and lead into the long-lasting drydown. This opening is joined by sparkling lemon and mandarin orange to deliver a fresh burst of energy to the senses. A heavily balsamic and animalic accord built around leather, this cologne leaves a profoundly masculine impression from the start, with notes of leather apparent from the first application.
