Oh dear there seems to be a lot of hate here, not sure it's got a lot to do with the actual fragrance probably more the man himself. As a mancunian and a die hard United fan, you can understand that there could be some bias here but never fear fragrance fans, I'm on a quest for the truth and if this fragrance was bad....I would tell you so. Truth is, for a designer release and especially for a celeb fragrance, Legacy is really quite good. I'd say mediocre and a little bland perhaps but totally wearable, no jarring notes, no god awful repellent aroma chemicals sticking out, just a smooth ride all the way. I can't say I can imagine Ronaldo wearing this, I thought he'd wear/create something much louder. I understand he didn't formulate it but I'm assuming he had some input? Anyway, it's understated opening is basically violet leaf, citrus and lavender but really well done. The dry down has a little more powder and I thought perhaps a touch of iris I like this because it's sort a balancing act between this and citrus/vetiver and a hint of spices. Please don't write this fragrance off because it isn't half bad...worth a sniff at anyway. I personally wouldn't buy it but it's no doubt as good or better than half the stuff on designer shelves at the moment. Update: Well I did end up buying it (only at a rock bottom price) and I must say I have to revise my initial statement slightly. I've allowed this fragrance to get away with olfactory crimes I would not forgive from the likes of Boss or YSL etc... just because it's a celebrity scent (and therefore the enemy) I did set the bar quite low, only to be surprised when it wasn't awful. Wearing Legacy today however and it's a bit of a mess...might be giving this away.
