## Essence
To Be Super[Natural] is an inexpensive unisex entry in Police's skull-bottle To Be line. Despite a name and note list that suggest something spicy or natural, it wears in practice as a clean, budget fresh woody-amber aromatic with watery floral lift, sitting closer to blue/fresh-market territory than to dense resin-spice orientals. It is the kind of uncomplicated daily fresh scent built to compete on price.

## Scent Profile
The easiest way to picture the wear is a citrus-pepper-water accord that moves into airy aromatics and dries down on modern woody-amber molecules. Bergamot and pink pepper do the opening work, giving a clean, slightly spicy lift.

In the heart, lotus and freesia keep things watery and transparent rather than thick, with cardamom and bourbon geranium adding a light aromatic-spicy edge. The effect is a transparent floral-aromatic middle rather than a rich one.

The base is the synthetic woody-amber anchoring familiar from modern fresh designers: cashmere wood plus Lorenox and Orcanox provide a clean musky-woody foundation without much warmth or darkness. The overall profile is largely linear, peppery and fresh, more crisp than cozy.

## Performance
Performance reads as light-to-moderate. One wearer described it as eau de cologne strength, which fits the airy, transparent character and suggests modest projection and a moderate lifespan rather than heavy, long-lasting presence. It is best approached as an easy fresh scent for close-range, daytime wear rather than a powerhouse, and it rewards a generous application.

## Wearing Context
With its clean peppery, aquatic, citrus-woody profile, this is a casual daytime scent for warmer weather: gym-adjacent wear, errands, uncomplicated office use, and anyone wanting something inexpensive and non-threatening. The same profile makes it a poor fit for formal evenings or for anyone seeking richness, depth, or a bold floral-spice statement.

## Comparisons & DNA
The most direct reference is Giorgio Armani Acqua di Giò, which one wearer reached for immediately before qualifying that Super[Natural] runs more peppery. Another described it as essentially a clone of Abercrombie & Fitch Authentic, another clean fresh-woody designer. A broader similarity cluster reaching toward Versace Eros Energy and Karl Lagerfeld Fleur de Thé points in the same clean modern direction. Together these place it squarely in the commercial clean-fresh woody-amber space, not in plush oriental-spicy territory and not in complex niche perfumery, despite the natural name.

## Reception
Reception is slight and mildly positive rather than enthusiastic, reflecting how little it has been written about. The available praise calls it nice, decent, and wearable, while the criticism finds it unremarkable or confusingly derivative. The practical takeaway is narrow: it makes sense for someone collecting the Police To Be line or wanting a cheap fresh daily driver, but there is no strong case that it is distinctive enough to recommend on artistry alone.

## Versions & Reformulation
Single composition with no known reformulations. The only real caveat is metadata rather than juice: one source dates it to 2023 and calls it floral-woody, while most listings and the catalog date it to 2024 and emphasize aromatic-spicy facets. Because the note pyramid and perfumer match across sources, this is a database dating and classification discrepancy rather than a separate formula.

## Acquisition Notes
This is a cheapie-priced release, commonly listed around $17 to $20 across discounters, which puts it firmly in impulse-buy territory. Its listed MSRP is roughly 27.5 EUR for 40 ml. There is little documented information on additional bottle sizes, counterfeit prevalence, or batch-code decoding, but the low price gives little incentive for fakes.
