Key Notes of Forever
What Does Forever Smell Like
Forever by Moschino is a fragrant journey for men, starting on a bright and invigorating note of bergamot with subtle hints of sweet and spiced star anise. The citrusy scent of the kumquat is most noticeable, creating a lively and fresh opening. As the fragrance unfolds, a spicy heart reveals itself. The black pepper gives a hint of zingy heat, paired seamlessly with the herbaceous aroma of clary sage. The scent of tonka bean is most dominant in the middle, giving a sweet, vanilla-like undertone.
As the fragrance settles on the skin, the base notes lend a more masculine, grounding quality to the perfume. The earthiness of vetiver pairs well with the warm, rich aroma of sandalwood, which adds a creamy, woody scent. Finally, the musk wafts a clean, animalistic aroma, which adds depth and masculinity, tying all the scents together.
In summary, Forever by Moschino smells fresh and citrusy to start, with the kumquat, bergamot, and star anise, turns spicy and slightly sweet with the tonka bean, black pepper, and clary sage, before finally settling into a warm, woody, and subtly musky aroma. The perfume is a rich blend of various scents, each unfolding at different stages, making the experience of wearing it quite engaging and pleasant throughout.
Review of Forever
Moschino's Forever is a well-liked fragrance that straddles the line between traditional and modern. It's a scent primarily designed for men, but its appeal is broad, attracting the young and old alike. Released in 2011, it has proven to have a timeless appeal, which does not fall into the trap of fleeting trends.
The scent of Forever is predominantly spicy, with a strong kick of fresh and citrus elements, making it noticeably vibrant. You'll pick up a hint of sweetness, supported by a woody undertone that grounds the fragrance and gives it substance. There's a slight touch of synthetic notes, but it's not overbearing. It's a fragrance that can adapt to your body chemistry, becoming a personal signature scent while retaining its original charm.
The perfume lends itself well to spring and fall, with enough freshness for summer's warmth and a bit of spice for colder winter days. It's versatile in terms of use, from laid-back daily wear to more formal business settings. However, it might not be robust enough to leave a lasting impression at night outings or evening soirées, and the sillage isn't particularly strong. Remember, it's an Eau de Toilette, so the longevity isn't exceptional, but it's decent for the price.
In terms of value, Moschino's Forever packs a punch. It won't break the bank, but it does deliver a charmingly distinct scent. It has a few shortcomings, particularly in its sillage and longevity, but its blend that combines spicy, fresh, citrus and woody notes, makes it an attractive option for those seeking a versatile fragrance. Overall, Forever by Moschino is a solid choice, especially for those who appreciate a spicy kick in their scent profile.
