Costarindo

Haven't smelled the OG, so I'm reviewing this as its own fragrance. It's fine, nothing remarkable. A pineapple & patchouli sent with some light florals. There are lots of fruitchoulis out there with pineapple. The patchouli has a little funk to it for the first couple of minutes, then it dissipates. It's not very sweet, nor spicy. Unisex. Not super strong projection, which is good for this kind of scent.

What can I say. I expected it to lean more tropical, but on my skin the floral notes take center stage. The jasmine gives it a soft, elegant, and feminine feel, while the fruity opening adds just enough brightness. As it dries down, the vanilla smooths everything out, but it remains more of a floral fragrance than a fruity gourmand to my nose. I'm waiting to see what it evolves to as it matures.

What a magnificent and warm fragrance! The pineapple opens, while the jasmine begins to flower and throw out it's presence. It's a big pop of floral and fruit. It tones down to patchouli, while the jasmine is dancing in the back. Everything is blending into a warmth of a humid, summer garden full of blooms, with the notes of green still lingering. It's sweet, tropical, floral, spicy. It has a sort of boldness that is very admirable. It is labeled a unisex, and while I would wear it, I could see some men not enjoying the floral notes. Yet another great one, I can't wait to see if this gets blended with another.
