Day 4 - Hardkor by Coreterno
It's Saturday night, and I have a club party waiting for me, so I decide to try a fragrance family—leather—that I don't usually use. As soon as I spray Hardkor, I say "holy crap!": I'm enveloped in a dense cloud of ripe fruit and leather, and yes, the leather is very noticeable, and it will reign supreme all night. I couldn't clearly identify the fruity and floral notes, but I can sense them, because they soften all the base notes. Even the vanilla is light and pairs beautifully with all the other notes. The club vibe, by the way, was perfectly in line with the perfume: dark and animalic, yet seductive. I received a couple of compliments from women who were perhaps too old for me (it was a '90s party, lol), but that's always nice. The next morning, it was still there, reminding me of the night before, accompanied by a slight aftertaste of Negroni, also reminding me of my hangover.
in conclusion it's a perfume that I really liked (even the bottle is a masterpiece), I think I should use leather fragrances more often and get out of the comfort zone that fruity fragrances give me. It must be tried before, a blind buy could be dangerous.
