Overall, this gets a thumbs up and is recommended for sampling. It can be dressed up or down, and for bringing it down you'd probably just apply less to create a more casual demeanor. I'd only be careful wearing it in the hot summer months. As far as season and occasion are concerned, Aoud Lemon Mint seems best suited for spring while functional in fall and winter. It's not too extreme in this regard, but whether or not you like it may depend on where your own personal tolerance threshold lies in regard to this aspect. ("Perfumey" = a powdery, diffusive white musky floral quality). Its downside is that, as I mentioned before, it has a "perfumey" quality to it which for some people can get annoying. But isn't it best suited for men? Absolutely. To draw a relevant comparison, Dior Homme is similar in this regard: Does it feel like a manly fragrance? No.It smells like lipstick and powder. What I mean is that although it's not a typically "masculine" fragrance, I can really only imagine men wearing it. As far as its gender, Aoud Lemon Mint is one of those perfumes that feels totally unisex to me, but completely and better suited for men. Projection is strong, as this is somewhat "perfumey" and diffuses well. As a result, it doesn't come as much of a surprise to me that there is little, if any "Aoud" in this fragrance, and it doesn't bother me either as oud is something I don't think I'd want to see here anyway. As a fan of Mancera fragrances, I've come to take the titles of their fragrances with a grain of salt. You'll pick up on the lemon, and as far as the mint is concerned it doesn't come across as any kind of herbal spearmint, its interpretation instead seems aimed at creating a cooling effect, in something of a lightly sweet peppermint accent. So what you get is a sort of sweet floral fragrance with a vague interpretation of vanilla, possessing a tart or sour edge, and delivered in a very fresh and cool way. Any promotions or discounts are applied to the premium above the precious metal price only and not on the metal price itself.Aoud Lemon Mint fits well into the "fresh oriental" genre, as it consists mostly of a jasmine/vanilla combination accented by lemons and provided a cool edge through the addition of mint It's important to note that these individual elements do not appear as such, and work together more to form what comes across as a singular accord. * Bullion product prices displayed include the precious metal price and any applicable premium.
