    I was just at Sephora in Portugal where I was having a whiff of at least 10 different Loewe colognes. The "problem" became, they all smell amazing in their own right. Now, I need to narrow it down based on my interests. All of the scents I smelled came across very natural! I can see why royalty was interested in these. I can tell it's quality!

    I just bought this, thanks in part to your review. It smells as you describe it, which is what I was looking for. After a couple of hours it reminds me of a fresh version of the original Anteus, from the 80s, which is a nice surprise.
    ¡Un saludo!

    • @realscentreview
      @realscentreview  9 месяцев назад +1

      Interesting comparison... I do detect what you mean with regards to the Antaeus similarity - I think it's the incense. The original Loewe ''7'' features an even heavier dose of incense and also includes a bit of rose - more similar to Antaeus in my opinion.
      Buen finde - que no vuelva a llover! Un saludo.

      To me, ambroxan itself smells different depending on what other ingredients it's mixed with.

Para ser una freshie, no lleva notas citricas y eso se me hace innovador. No tiene necesariamente la mejor duracion ni estela, pero entre las tres mencionadas anteriormente, es la mas unica segun yo.

    Nice Video!
    Just got back from Madrid and smelled a few men wearing something and i was too shy to ask. It’s got a clean mediterranean, mineral, sort of fresh but doesn’t go into strictly freshie vibe. It’s projects there an herbal modern not dated yet classic vibe to it. An everyday scent sort of a rich guy feel. I’m on the hunt can you help me find this, I know a shot in the dark but since you live in Spain hoping you can help. Just ordered cobalt 7, agua Fresca Vetiver and citro cedro. I have to find this scent and will do what it takes. It’s sort of an intoxicating smell. Not spicy dark or warm. It’s clean and fresh while smelling very interesting.
    Please help me with some suggestions.
    Cheers!

      Awesome city, Madrid. Lucky to call the place home.
      I have a feeling I know exactly the fragrance you're referring to - or rather, I can narrow it down to 2 possibilities.
      Does it smell kind of like a mix of Aventus, Bleu de Chanel and Sauvage, with added woods and some aromatics? Might even have some resinous incensy tinges?
      It's either Boreal Shine for Him or Boreal Blue Shine by the Spanish grocery store chain Mercadona. The two aren't hugely different - both are similar to a mix of the three fragrances above, with some minute differences between the two.
      Absolutely ubiquitous all over Spain. Costs about 13€/100ml in the mentioned grocery store.

Aye dios mío ! lol. Ok now I have to find a way to get these said chain store colognes in the US where I’m located. Now that may be a task. Haha.

      I own both (BDC EDT and Loewe 7 Cobalt) - it is not redundant to own both.
      Loewe performs better, it is more fruity and the incense note is stronger.
      BDC Edt is fresher and here the mint dominates the opening and it dries down to a more woody smell rather than incense.
      I think both fragrances are similar, Loewe even more masculine in my opinion, slightly less versatile, more elegant. BDC is fresher, more for office and daily wearing.
