Frequently Asked Questions about CR7 by Cristiano Ronaldo
What does CR7 by Cristiano Ronaldo smell like?
CR7 by Cristiano Ronaldo features top notes of Artemisia, Bergamot, Cardamom, and Lavender, middle notes of Cedarwood, Cinnamon, Iris, and Tobacco, and base notes of Amber, Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla.
If we want to band about the word 'quality' to describe, strength, silage and performance then sure this scent is an average to below par fragrance, reminiscent of something from the lesser designers...I'm thinking Dunhill or Mont Blanc. However what these houses lack in finesse or following through on a fundamentally sound concept they make up for with a dash of originality and something which very nearly stands out and that's what this is. I'm not saying it's the most original or ground breaking scent because it certainly isn't but it's doing enough to satisfy me and that tells me it's not conforming to the recent tropes. The opening is great, immediately drawing me in with a bergamot, spiced cardamom sort of vibe but right away appealing. The drydown is warm and relatively masculine, woods and a hint of vanilla perhaps. The notes in this aren't all that clear but well constructed enough not to be that everyman crap we are used to seeing. I like CR7. I probably mentioned my bias as a Manchester United fan when reviewing Legacy but that was a good fragrance too. Love him or loathe him just like Beckham his scents are crowd pleasing and could be a god awful lot worse. Thumbs up!
