Black Suede Sport
Avon (2016)

An hyper blue energizing fragrance (nothing black about it) with a powerfully synthetic approach (in a typical Avon's style), a bursting citric opening (with a strong note of bergamot), dry leafy florals, a super aromatic sage (the real key note), a muscular synth vetiver and an intense woody-musky touch with a synth suedish trail. Yes, definitely a sporty fragrance really really close to Adidas Dynamic Pulse, namely an easy going affordable spring/summer time sporty cologne for unpretentious people, something due to a daily everyday use (better after the gymnic activity) and with any special peculiarity. Black Suede Sport, launched by Avon in the 2015, is a citric woody blue fragrance with faint ozonic/aqueous elements, hints of rooty vetiver, a touch of dry leafy floral notes and a dry woody-musky muscular soul with hints of leather. The leather's touch is nothing but a soapy-leathery final vibe. The fragrance's performances are faint on my skin, especially the projection is minimal. In particular the note of minty sage is dominant throughout as connected with citrus and dry floral intense woodiness. The leather touch is minimal, blue (citrus, aromatics, dry woods, leafy florals and musk) and super synthetic. It seems hints of ozonic aromachemicals have been included in the mix. This fragrance is a supreme example of olfactory mediocrity in a typical Avon's style but is definitely better than the horrific Black Suede Dark (super sweet hyper synthetic petroleous leather) and than several other recent Avon's issues entering the Black Suede line (apart the decent Black Suede EDT). Definitely a cheap smelling little fragrance to be worn as post gym deodorant and no more else.
