I bought it blindly based on Fragrantica notes. I love alcoholic notes with tobacco and cedar, so there was no other option. The dry down is just as expected: lots of well-balanced cognac with tobacco, a sophisticated and warm aura. It feels alcoholic with an exquisite pipe tobacco base. The bad part is it evaporates quickly; after the mix, a generic cedar emerges that disappears in 3 hours, maybe 4 if we’re generous. In short, a good fragrance that vanishes in a breath. Fortunately, it’s cheap and you can abuse the sprayer without guilt.
The opening is like the trailer of a mediocre movie: in a minute it promises action and hooks you, but the whole film turns out bland. This happens with the fragrance: spectacular opening, a boozy, intoxicating scent that lasts barely an hour. Then it dilutes, leaving a barely perceptible woody scent with no trace of the captivating opening. It reminds me of Beckham’s Intimately. Another luxury perfume perfect for weekend gym sessions at mid-morning, so you don’t waste it sweating in spin class.
The notes sound strong and captivating, but it’s a disappointment. At first, it’s rich with an amazing aroma that promises a lot, yet it’s also mediocre and fades away in about 3 hours at most.
The notes sound strong and captivating but it’s a disappointment: at first it’s rich and promises a lot, but then it turns mediocre and abandons you in about 3 hours max.
It’s the classic budget-friendly perfume that smells good, a great gift where you’ll look good, but it doesn’t last long; that’s normal for cheap ones. You’ll look good and if you wear it, you’ll smell good. On my skin, it’s a copy of Creed Aventus, sitting in the middle in longevity between Club de Nuit Intense and Zara Vibrant Leather.
I bought it for the price and because I read great reviews about when it won an award. To my nose, Creed Aventus smells similar, just without the pineapple, and I think they used this perfume as inspiration for Aventus. The downside is the short longevity and sillage, though for the price, fifteen sprays make up for it.
I bought it for the price and because I read glowing reviews right after its launch, as if they’d won an award. To my nose, Creed Aventus smells similar but lacks the pineapple that defines Aventus, and I’d dare say they kept this in mind when creating it. The downside is that it fades quickly and doesn’t last, though for the price, fifteen sprays are already a great deal.
It has cognac notes with smoky woods and tobacco, very sober and best for over 30s. Ideal for an air-conditioned office where it lasts longer; in my case, 4 hours projecting the first note. I stopped buying it because the bottle distorted the scent over time. Not something to buy blindly, but worth testing in-store first.
It has cognac notes with smoky woods and tobacco; very sober, ideal for those over 30 or for air-conditioned offices where it lasts longer. In my case, it lasted 4 hours, projecting well for the first hour. I didn’t finish the bottle because the scent in the bottle started to distort over time. Not something to buy blind, but definitely worth testing in-store before spending.
This is one of those you have to keep in the car for a drive and reapply, because IT DOESN’T LAST AT ALL. If you want the scent to hit strong for a date, you need to apply more. If you fix that issue, it becomes a compliment bomb.
This is one of those perfumes you need to wear in the car to reapply outdoors, because IT DOESN’T LAST AT ALL. If you want the scent to stay strong until the end of a date or meeting, you’ll need to reapply. If you fix that issue, it becomes a compliment bomb.
Sounds unisex and I love it; it’s refined and I think it even won an award. For me, it lasts 6 hours or more, which is rare because potent women’s fragrances usually fade faster.
