By the editors · 2 min readA blast of cold melon and peppermint announces itself immediately, sharp and aquatic in the way late-nineties sport fragrances loved to be. The eucalyptus adds a mentholated clarity that feels more clinical than natural, while citrus and orange blossom try to soften the synthetic chill. It's unapologetically of its era—when freshness meant ice-cold fruit and gym-bag cleanness.
The heart warms slightly with ginger and nutmeg, though ylang-ylang and rose struggle to assert themselves beneath the persistent melon. Lily and freesia add a soapy floral veil, but the composition never quite shakes its opening's athletic intentions. The base dries down to pale woods and a whisper of amber, polite and unobtrusive.
This is nostalgia in a bottle for anyone who remembers when sporty meant aggressively fresh rather than subtly saline. It captures a specific moment in fragrance history—optimistic, synthetic, and utterly unafraid of volume.
