The greatest mens fragrance of all time. Yep, I said it. Sweet licorice on top of some spices with the hint of the Sauvage DNA. Nuculear performance. 2 sprays MAX, tho you could get away with one spray. Very versatile, you can wear it to just about anything in nearly every season except the heat of summer. A tad expensive but you get what you pay for.
People who claim this is reformulated and extremely weak are insane. Nose blindness is a real thing. Got a 2024 batch and this stuff is a MONSTER. 12+ hours of longevity with projection easily of 5+ feet. Citruses with a good dose of pepper with ambroxan. Great casual scent that works in the office, tho don't use for than 2 sprays or you will get sent home.
Easily the best of the line, if not the greatest blue fragrance of all time. Longevity is a bit below average on my skin, 5-6 hours tops, with pretty soft projection and sillage after an hour or so. Versatile king, can be worn casual, dressed up, summer, winter, whenever. Versatility king!
Gives me headache
Very sweet fragrance, sometimes overwhelming. One day I like it - the other day I hate it.
Strong vétiver for special occasions when it is fresh outside
My first perfume. i love it. Unfortunately i cant find it anymore.
suitable to wear in the gym or outdoor walking/hiking. Great for spring and summer
date night perfume that doesnt perform. Smell wise its amazing but almost no one can smell you. Buy a travel atomizer to spray every one, two hours.
it is Dior Sauvage.. nothing more to add. Still classic.
Smells great and performs very well, but it has a weird smell or note when it cools down. Especially in summer.
One of my favorite leather perfumes. If you want to smell great try high quality oud incense with tuscan leather. Smell like a arab 101.
beautiful refreshing scent, but doesnt last long. In my opinion one of the best citrusy summer scent smell wise.
Its sweet from beginning to end. That annoys me a bit. But its a nice scent for a cheap price.
good for the price I just find it really feminine definitely try
Pretty much Bleu de Chanel made a bit fresher (smells like grapefruit to me). I get about 4-5 hours with minimal projection. Great inoffensive option for the office.
I can kinda see the resemblance to to Dior Homme 2020 but they aren't close. This is much more citrus and spicy with a little of the DH2020 woodiness to it. As someone else said, 12+ of longevity and the projection is unreal. Only 4 sprays and I had an older lady chase me down in the store demanding to know what I was wearing. I rarely get complements. 10/10.
L'eau D'Issey meets Dior Homme 2020. There is definitely ISO E Super in here. This fragrances has a watery and woody tone to it that might sound strange but works. I highly recommend you try it if you like woody scents like DH2020. Perfect for the office and casual wear.
Just got this in today so I can't comment on longevity, sillage, and projection. However, what I can tell you is the smell. This fragrance is not unlike other fragrances you can buy at department stores. It will remind you of Prada Luna Rossa Carbon, Sauvage, and Dylan Blue. Call me crazy but I would pick this any day of the week. It smells of higher quality and a bit smoother than all of those. Got is for $30 for a tester off eBay and I would highly recommend if you find it for a similar price.
One of the best scents for summer. Versatility is great imo.
Aromatics Elixir is marketed by Clinique as an “intriguing non-conformist fragrance." Chandler Burr writes of its depth and shadows, and it's described by many reviewers as "a chypre on steroids." I find all of these things to be true, and more. It is a bitter, balsamic, menacingly astringent blend of cool, otherworldly woods and sour alien herbs, abstract florals and austere resins. Verbena and geranium, jasmine and oakmoss, bergamot and patchouli–all of the familiar notes for a classic and yet it feels out of time, wholly strange and new, as if it contains a strain of alien DNA. Like it’s been floating through the void of space in a cavernous non-Euclidean construct, the monstrous pressure and eerie whistle of the air ducts it's been hiding in slowly driving it mad as it drifts a silent path through the cold stars, utterly alone. If this being had a message for us from across that cosmic ocean of emptiness, it would surely reach us after its death. Such a transmission from that dread abyss is the scent of Aromatics Elixir.
Rotting clumps of sour milk, canned fruit that's been forgotten in a bunker for 35 years, and the slutty Egyptian musk that a zombie stripper demon might wear while giving you a wildly uncomfortable lap dance. My god. I just want to hurl this sample straight into the sun.
Akro Haze is a cool, slithery scent of aromatic and bittersweet-camphoraceous herbs, the hissing sweetness of that unexpected and uncanny resinous maple syrup note that I associate with immortelle, and a quiet, stealthy base of leathery woods and patchouli. I can’t speak to the fragrance’s supposed inspiration because I do not partake, but it certainly does have a nocturnal, narcotic energy, all languid limbs, drowsing breaths, and being hypnotized by a gorgeous creature who is actually a snake spirit or a snake goddess, or a Medusa, or a half-woman, half-cobra monster created by a mad scientist, or whatever-- what I am getting here is that Haze is a monstrously beautiful snake lady of a scent.
So, 4160 Tuesday’s The Sexiest Scent On The Planet. Ever. (IMHO). I can’t say that I don’t like it, because I really do. Is it sexy? I don’t know. I don’t really like to think about scents like that, for some reason it really grosses me out. Maybe my filthy youth–and man do I have some stories–flipped some sort of switch in my brain where now I basically want whatever the opposite of sexy is. I am not saying sexy is a young person's game, I guess I am saying I just don't care about sexy anymore. There's more to life. Anyway. So this scent is fairly simple, what I might call floral vanilla and dark woods. It’s lovely, but not overly complex. It’s perfectly fine and I would almost want a full bottle to keep around for days when I don’t know what I want to wear, only that I want to smell nice. The problem is, it smells EXACTLY like the sandalwood vanilla wallflower home scent plug-ins that Bath and Body Works used to sell. And there’s no inherent problem with that scent, either, it’s actually very pretty, but my sister has one–sometimes two–plugged into every room in her house, and before long what was once pretty is now intensely oppressive and suffocating, and now I can’t smell this particular version of vanilla and woods without feeling like I am choking on a candle. I get how this is a me-problem, not actually a product-problem, or perfumer-problem. but sometimes that’s the way it goes.
