Contrary to what others say, Kenneth Cole is an underrated brand. If you’re looking to buy blind, this is the safe and affordable option; I’ve done it four times and was never disappointed. This Mankind might seem generic and vintage, but it’s never low quality: it’s a woody fragrance with a spicy kick, perfect for the office. It gives off a vibe of someone serious and focused, yet sparky and witty. It lasts about 3-5 hours, which is just right for this style.

Unlike other reviews, Kenneth Cole seems like an underrated brand to me. If you want to buy blind, this is the brand at an incredibly low price. I’ve done it four times and it has never failed me. This Mankind might seem a bit generic and vintage, but it’s never low quality; basically, it’s a woody fragrance with a spicy touch, perfect for the office, for anyone who is already working and leans towards formal without being boring. It gives off the vibe of a serious, focused person who is witty and has a spark. It lasts about 3 to 5 hours, which is just right for this style.

Everyone shares their experience at the fair, and I respect all opinions because skin pH varies, which explains the joy or disappointment. For me, it’s a well-crafted fragrance with excellent and long-lasting performance. It starts subtle and fresh, but after two hours, it unleashes its magic: constant elegance and freshness. It’s a proposal to embrace the new and creative. It lasted over 12 hours, and every minute I discover something magical and pleasant. It’s elegant and doesn’t lose its subtlety even after the gym.

Everyone shares their experience at the fair, and I respect all opinions because skin pH varies, which explains the joy or disappointment. For me, it’s very well made, with excellent and long-lasting performance. It starts subtle and fresh, but after two hours, it unleashes its magic: constant elegance and freshness. It’s a new proposal for us to accept the creative and the good. It has lasted over 12 hours, and hour after hour I discover the magical and pleasant aspects of it. It’s elegant and doesn’t abandon its subtlety even after the gym.

Synthetic fragrance. I consider that the vast majority of Kenneth Cole products are not good, including this one. I don’t care if they give compliments or not; what matters is being honest: I regretted buying it blind. It’s silly, cheap, generic, and linear. On my part, I don’t recommend it.

A brand that knows what it’s doing. It smells beastly; that cedar and pineapple combo is brutal. Someone might say it’s a known scent, but I don’t care; the performance is on another level. I spent $280 on other fragrances and here only $40, yet I’ve received equal or better compliments from girls. Hey, they don’t care if it’s expensive or cheap, just that it smells great and suits you perfectly. If you start talking about price and brand details, they’ll just see you as a clueless killjoy.

What a great fragrance! I notice it’s very similar to La Nuit de Hombre but creamier with much better performance on my skin. Note: exquisite scent and lasting notes. Greetings to all.
