Who created Air Tiger by Marc Gebauer?
Air Tiger by Marc Gebauer was created by Chris Maurice.
Instant headache. Same cheesy, scratchy, screechy, synthetic leather accord found in certain fragrances by Alessandro Gaultieri. I really hate this, and of course it's insidiously nuclear. Edit after wearing on skin: I'd sprayed this on card and found it intolerable, and I didn't want to wear it. However now I have it on my inner elbows and wrists (it was a free decant, and the decant sprayer allows me to do little sprays, mercifully). It's different on skin. The cheesy leather is muted, though still present, and the warmth of my skin brings out the resins, labdanum and orris. It's more tolerable. I will say, though, that for my tastes this perfume suffers from the same issue as Shem by Nishane, namely a cypriol/leather overdose. It's just too screechy and scratchy for me personally, and it stills feels likely to give me a headache or become irritating at some point. I'd say this is a perfume whose sillage is way better than if you smell it up close. And one small spray, away from the face and neck area, will suffice. Chris Maurice is incredibly prolific, and many people seem to love his perfumes, but I've yet to find anything close to subtlety in his work, instead it's a smorgasbord of shouting opulence which I can imagine would seem apt in a Dubai shopping mall. I agree with the below reviewer, that this is for bros. Bros who perhaps first fell in love with Sauvage and are now a bit older with a bit more money. --- Yeah, I'm 20 minutes in and I'm gonna have to scrub it off. --- Whoopdi-frigging-do, it's impossible to scrub off 🙄
