The rediscovered time

I loved it - back in the 90s. My heart leapt when I found it online in a UK store. I wonder where the stores here get their remaining stock; or whether it has been reissued in the meantime - it's not always available in Germany, I've looked for it online in Germany several times in the past. Or even a fake? Either way, I don't hesitate for a second and place my order. The packaging, including the box, is identical to that of 20 years ago. The cardboard is falling apart, the adhesive is no longer holding.

Finally the test - I'm delighted.
It is definitely Tribu. Almost the old Tribu. Warm-sweet-fruity-floral.

For me, Tribu is most aptly compared to lemonade. The fruitiness of blackcurrant. Cassis syrup soda. A light fragrance, as fleeting as the gas bubbles of carbonic acid.
And there is still a bit of rose, a very transparent rose, found in cosmetic products such as my moisturizing facial care. I perceive both as I used to.

But it seems to me that something is wrong with the scent. And I think my scent memory is infallible. It's a little different than before. I miss the depth and a tangy, citrusy note. An artificial component is slightly dominant. Somehow soulless.

I am a little disappointed.

a lot of old samples...

Are still given out. A perfume couldn't smell this bad. It is discontinued so it makes sense that my sample is bad.

Intense hard liquor and mint at first, then it turns to smelling like teabags. Poor thing.

Oakmoss, I repeat, Oakmoss

I have a manufacturer's carded sample of Benetton TRIBU, so I decided to give it a shot this morning. What I smell, above all, is oakmoss. There is no florality, no fruitiness, and some vague woody quality to this perfume. This smells completely unisex but not all that appealing to me.

It's basically impossible to know whether my sample has transformed or this is how TRIBU smells from a fresh bottle as well. The reviews are all over the map, so my best guess is that this is a perfume which undergoes metamorphosis as the years pass. Since I obtained my sample from a discounter, it may have sat in a warehouse for nearly twenty years! Who knows?

Anyway, this time slice of TRIBU is wearable but, again, not that appealing to me. Because of the marked oakmoss, it reminds me of chypres in the neighborhood of Jacomo SILENCES.
