Red Fever is still one of my favorites from Aaron Terence Hughes. This one is bold, fruity, sweet, floral and absolutely performs.
Right from the opening I get that juicy mixture of pear, peach, raspberry and plum, but the star for me is the rose. It has a rich, almost jammy quality without turning into something overly syrupy. As it settles down, the amber, vanilla, almond and oakmoss give it more depth and smooth everything out.
What I really enjoy is that Red Fever doesn’t smell like a light fruity rose. It has some weight behind it. The fruit keeps it lively, while the rose and amber give it that richer, more luxurious feel.
Performance:
Projection: 9.5/10
Sillage: 9.5/10
Longevity: 10/10
This is definitely one where I don’t need to go crazy with the sprays. A few sprays create a serious scent bubble, and it hangs around for a long time.
Red Fever is loud, smooth, sexy and unapologetic. Exactly what I expect when ATH decides to make something with some horsepower.
SOTD Rating: 10/10
Add this is my favorite fragrance or at least in my top three just had to get the 10 out of 10
