    The perfume delivers on its promise and I like it, but it fails in longevity and projection. I enjoy wearing it, though the vibe feels like baby perfume spilled on a wooden dresser.

    Bvlgari presents its take with a neroli note. I’ve been wearing it for months and I’ve liked it. It’s not groundbreaking, but it’s well-blended, unobtrusive, and of acceptable quality. It smells of orange blossom, musk, and faint woods. It gives a sense of cleanliness and modernity. It’s great for the office and versatile for mild days. At the current price, it’s a solid buy. If you already own another neroli cologne, this might be redundant. In short, a very good Bvlgari fragrance.

    At first, it smells like lemon candy with camphor. If you let it mature for a month, you’ll discover its true scent: freshly peeled natural orange peel and wood bark, like Christmas cedar. I detect a tree trunk aroma, and although it’s light, I notice a touch of chocolatey leather that balances the citrus persistence without being sweet. It’s a sour orange, nothing synthetic or brash, that refreshes in the heat like sugar-free soda. I wouldn’t wear it in the cold because it feels chilly. In terms of longevity, applied at 6 am, I can still smell it until 9 pm, which is optimal performance. The trail isn’t invasive; it stays within a rewarding personal bubble. It’s discreet, ideal for casual or formal wear. Its only flaw is the atomizer, which is poor and requires awkward positioning. Despite searching for a cheaper version, I’ll keep it for its freshness and longevity. It delivers on its promises.

    Another great discontinued perfume found online at reasonable prices, without the flaws of other cult scents. It starts with a luminous citrus note and evolves into a clean, potent neroli that lingers, blending with cypriol and a subtle suede that adds personality without losing its crispness. It stays this way for several hours. It’s addictive, versatile, and wearable. It leans masculine, perfect for spring and summer afternoons, working well into the night or during the day in cooler climates. Very good longevity for this scent, around 6-7 hours with moderate but noticeable projection. Highly recommended; I got mine on Wallapop for a great price. The atomizer is terrible, as with all in the line.

    A very enjoyable and wearable perfume, where the dry-down with neroli is the best part. It made me think of someone like Don Corleone: elegant, sophisticated, kind, and stern. It’s a defined masculine scent, classic and timeless, both old and modern at once. In terms of performance, it improves with fewer sprays, but on my skin, it struggles to last more than 4 hours. Another neroli I tried was Adolfo Domínguez; they follow the same line but with unique twists. It’s for a personal bubble and daily use, neither too casual nor too formal, perfect for dressing up with a fresh, masculine touch.

    The scent is spectacular; you can really smell the neroli and citrus. It feels fresh with woody undertones at the base, elegant and perfect for spring and summer. Projects well for the first two hours before settling into a personal bubble.

    I bought it based on the reviews and loved the smell on the first spray, as if I were smelling a tree right in front of me. Unfortunately, on my oily skin, it didn’t last even half an hour, which was disappointing. Maybe it shines more on drier skin.

    Personally, it has all the clean scent I’ve always wanted. An excellent balance between neroli and citrus that makes it very masculine and extremely clean. It lasted over 24 hours on clothes while maintaining that clean scent. On skin, it easily lasted 6 hours without losing what characterizes it: that clean, masculine aroma.

  9. It’s citrusy and floral, but with a nautical twist that really surprised me. Then it explodes with potent citrus and a delicious neroli. Lasts a long time and leaves a trail. In the end, musky notes blend with the earlier ones. 100/10! Highly recommended.

    Forget the typical stuff: it has an Italian soul, it’s citrusy and floral, and oozes class. It’s severely underrated. Its woody notes project strongly for the first two hours. On my skin, it lasts 7-8 hours and on clothes for several days. ‘Elegant freshness’ is its perfect definition. A must-have and one of my favorites.

    I still haven’t decided to buy it, even though I’ve tried it many times. The opening is spectacular: fresh, green, and clean, lasting about half an hour. Then it moves to a floral, woody, herbal, and slightly rugged part without losing freshness. This is where I’m not convinced: after 2-3 hours, the projection drops to a skin scent. Before, it lasted 4-5 hours with good projection, but now niche prices have gone crazy (in Peru, around $160) and the longevity has dropped. It used to cost $110. It seems like they discontinued it. A scent I like, but 4711 smells the same and lasts 3 hours at a ridiculous price. Bulgari disappoints by reformulating gems like Man In Black and this one. I’ll look elsewhere. It’s not worth more than $60.

    I have the Banana Republic version and expected something similar or better, but this smells more serious and muted. The Banana one is brighter, fresher, and longer-lasting. Unfortunately, it’s no longer available in Mexico, so I looked for this Bulgari as a replacement. It’s not bad, but it leans more towards woods, making it more mature. On paper, it smells weak and has almost no projection.

    Ideal for hot days. Elegant, well-constructed, non-invasive, and addictive. Wearing it is a pleasure: it brings freshness and relaxation without losing its masculine edge.

  14. The Virginia cedar and cyperus give it personality, but they don’t captivate. It’s just a good citrus option for classy people. 7/10.

    On my nose, it’s totally floral. If you want to know what it smells like, it’s a blast of white flowers, like a funeral arrangement. It has other notes, but they aren’t noticeable. When you smell it, a bunch of white flowers comes to mind. Good longevity, 6 to 8 hours, depending on your skin.

  16. Carcanuelo

    One of the few fragrances where neroli takes center stage, balanced by woods and leather for an exclusive touch. If you don’t like neroli, skip it. Everything else hinges on one factor: temperature. Below 20°C, the neroli and orange blossom fade into something gray, lacking brightness or depth in the woods and leather. But don’t give up; above 22-25°C, the perfume truly comes alive with personality. Alberto Morillas couldn’t have failed. With heat and sun, it shines on its own, driven by a masculine cypriol into a woody terrain where white woods and residual leather provide an elegant, exclusive Mediterranean breeze. Performance is good for this type of fragrance—about 6 hours on skin. It offers neroli lovers a distinct alternative to Tom Ford or Jeanne in Provence: a mature, grown-up neroli, crafted by the best summer fragrance perfumer around.

    First time with Bvlgari, and I grabbed Man Wood Neroli just for the deal, even though I’ve never really been a fan of the house. By the way, I got Man Black as a birthday gift and will review that when winter hits in the south; right now it’s summer. To the point: it opens with a potent neroli and bergamot that reminds me of Icon by Alfred Dunhill, though Dunhill’s is stronger. That initial punch softens as it dries down, giving way to herbal heart notes. The base is just amber and woods. Sillage is moderate, lasting four or five hours before it stays close to the skin. Ideal for spring and summer days when it gains strength. It could work at night if you want to stand out, though it sits in the middle there. I love neroli fragrances, and this is no exception. It works for both formal and casual occasions. Pleasant, only slightly invasive at the very start. In short, a fresh and elegant fragrance for formal and informal spring and summer events.

    I’m struggling to write a review, but it smells like white floral with a touch of citrus and sweetness—that’s all I notice. Still, it works well for summer.

  19. I tried it and took the sample home; what a letdown! My first thought was Wicky. It’s one of those ‘love it or hate it’ perfumes, just like Encre Noir—I hate both. Taste is subjective.

    I got a sample as a gift with a purchase and sprayed it five times; it felt like an expensive baby scent. Sorry for being ignorant, but I didn’t like it.

    Simple yet high quality, nothing like the typical citrus bomb. You can tell there’s real craftsmanship in the composition, and it’s worth it. It has a woody body with ambergris and musk that doesn’t feel exposed but rather accompanies perfectly. It’s soft, lasts about 6 hours, has low projection, but exudes excellence.

    You can definitely smell the orange blossom; it smells like neroli water and reminds me of sweet bread. The opening surprised me, but I didn’t like it afterward. Very similar to cologne 4711; I wouldn’t buy it.

    I like the perfume, but it’s nothing extraordinary, as a colleague noted—it’s more of a straight-up neroli. The longevity disappointed me; on my skin, it lasts about 3 hours. It’s fresh, floral, and smells good, but I think there are better options. I’d give it a 6/10.

    Another neroli option in the fragrance world; not exceptional, though I genuinely like it. Curiously, the neroli doesn’t stand out; the citrus notes do. Longevity is acceptable considering the ingredients usually don’t last long; it’s fresh, citrusy, and floral. It’s not worth the price—I recommend Ermenegildo Zegna’s Mediterranean Neroli and Aqua di Neroli instead. 8/10.

  25. What richness, no doubt. It’s a bath of freshness that smells like a classic, respectful man… it reminds me of my first fragrance, 4711, which used to get sighs from my schoolmates. The only downside is how brief the longevity is.
