Oh it is always a hunt to find a fragrance that has a perfect balance of intensity, freshness, liveliness, and masculinity. Most of the run on the mill fragrances today for men will have a blend of some of these features but surely all the elements won’t be present in a perfume. In my ardent search for a combination that has the right balance of all these elements, I stumbled upon the United Dreams line from the house of United Colors of Benetton. I have both the “For Him” and “For Her” variants from this line specific to the name “Together” and this post is going to be dedicated to the “For Him” variant. This was a surprising discovery for my husband and has been a keeper ever since. Let’s dive into all the aspects of this perfume. Packaging Luxurious, efficient, classy, and compact. That’s what this packaging reflects. If you see the image, you will see an opaque bottle that has a gradient going from blue towards silver. The cap has got perfect symmetry when it comes to the design and is definitely of good quality. The atomizer is silver in color as well, which not only befits the color scheme perfectly but also emits uniform spritzes. Overall, 10/10 on packaging from my side. I can barely find anything a flaw in this packaging to talk about. Scent
Oh my god! This one is sure to take your breath away. Opening with the freshness of bergamot and tangerine, you also get hints of spices in the top notes that has black pepper and juniper in it. The heart notes are quite intense with the floral and aromatic notes of Lavender, geranium, thyme, and water accords. The water accords give this fragrance a lucidity that wraps around you and makes you feel good about the fragrance you are wearing. At the base, you get cedarwood, tonka bean, amber and moss which gives this perfume the sultry woody scent that lingers on to your senses for a long time. Overall, a winner. Longevity and Silage Many perfumes get the scent correct with all the perfect notes and in their right amount of concentration to make you smell incredible. Most falter at the longevity factor. This one tops it too. You can clearly get a wear time of 8–9 hours with this one and remember I belong from a hot and humid country. So, if a perfume performs this good here am sure it works even better in colder countries. The silage is great as it projects decently for a significant amount of time. Then it leaves a trail as well. So, you walk passed someone or you meet someone, they will surely be able to smell this one on you. Quantity and Price Point Now, when it comes to the pricing, none of the UCB perfumes can be considered to be cheap. That is a truth you will have to live with if you intend on buying this fragrance. There are 60 and 100ml variants available in the market and the pricing starts from Rs. 1400 and ranges up to Rs. 1900. Not sure if 30ml variant is available for men as the same is available for the female counterpart of this perfume. So, as per the quantity, the price point can seem too much. However, trust me it is worth every penny of yours and if you check various online portals, you will definitely get amazing discounts on this perfume for sure. You can check Myntra, Nykaa, and TataCliq for some great discounts when they are offering and you can save some bucks while you lay your hands on this awesome perfume. Final Thoughts Few spritzes of this and you are good to go. Any occasion, any function, or a regular office day, you can rock this perfume with the huge boost of confidence that it imparts. Will I recommend? The long post is surely a testimony that I will, a hundred times over. |
