Bruno Banani Summer Man Limited Edition 2023

Great Fragrance for Summer or Spring time. Fruity, Sweet, bit citrusy and a small hint of Spicyness. Still smells really Masculine. Also great price. Nice.

A slice of Spain in a bottle, like Sangria. Mostly fruity and a little sweet. There's a tad bit of spiciness to it, but it goes surprisingly well with the summer heat. A hint of citrus but not really the fresh kind, it's more like a slightly bitter orange/tangerine peel. It's a neat little daytime summer scent. Edit: When I first bought it (around April) it was underperforming and disappointing. Literally couldn't smell it after 15 minutes, not even my girlfriend could. After a couple of months it got a lot better, that was the time I wrote the initial review. Since then, the scent has become really good for a cheapie. I've never experienced a fragrance maturing this much. The opening reminds me of Armani Code, at about 50% with some mellow woodiness and soft spiciness. Dry-down is sweet and soapy, but still has some character to it. Performance is surprisingly good, the smell can still hit me after working 8 hours in the office. Really pleasant and enjoyable to wear.

First reaction: Quite good. Can't decide if it smells too cheap or not. The whiffs are very pleasant and indeed summery. Expected pure freshness, but it has some body. Something in it reminds me of Between Sheets, the lavender, orange, grapefruit and vetiver combo. Edit: While there are some great highlights in how it smells in the opening, unfortunately the drying stage goes in a cheap soapy direction. I bought on the notion I got from forums that it would be some sort of CK One Summer alternative, but it's not all there.
