L'Homme Ultime Clones

"### How it Smells Obsolete opens with a sharp, ginger ale fizz battling against a somewhat acrid grapefruit rind. The cardamom is present, but it's more of a powdered, dusty version than the vibrant spice found in the YSL inspiration. The heart attempts a rose accord, but it lands closer to rose-scented dish soap alongside a vaguely herbal sage. The geranium is practically nonexistent. As it dries down, the cedar presents a pencil shavings note, while the vetiver is a weak, grassy whisper. The cashmere wood adds a fuzzy, almost synthetic warmth that does little to elevate the overall impression. Compared to L'Homme Ultime, this lacks the sophisticated freshness and smooth transitions. It smells like a simplified, somewhat clumsy interpretation that misses the mark. ### Final Thoughts Obsolete is best suited for spring days or early autumn outings, ideally during daytime. It's passable as a casual scent, but its fleeting nature and simplified composition make it unsuitable for formal occasions or situations where you need a lasting impression. It's easily forgettable. ### Projection Power On my skin, Obsolete lasts about 3-4 hours, becoming a skin scent after the first hour. Projection is weak, barely extending beyond arm's length for the initial 30 minutes. I tested it indoors in an office setting and found it faded into oblivion quickly. Outdoors in mild weather, it disappeared even faster."
