Super elegant fragrance, perfect for showing off style and class. It really shines at night and in the cold when the cinnamon, apple, leather, and amber notes truly pop. The longevity is average and the sillage is a bit weak, but it’s a lovely scent that’s best enjoyed close to the skin. My rating: 6.5/10

What stands out most is definitely the cedar and cinnamon. The downside is it doesn’t last long, but what a beautiful aroma for cold days.

This is the fourth one from this line I own and they’re all on another level, incredible quality. This one smells different from the others, maybe a bit like DKNY Be Delicious Men. I recommend it blindly. By the way, the Green Jaguar has superb longevity, almost like Giacomo by Giacomo.

Great Jaguar fragrance, price-to-quality ratio is a ten. It’s amber-forward; I smell a lot of cinnamon and apple, and it smells fantastic. The sillage and longevity are moderate with just four sprays. I don’t sense it’s similar to anything I’ve tried before. The price is ridiculous for what it offers, plus the bottle looks very refined.

I love this scent! They say it’s an ‘Oriental Fougère,’ but to me it smells more like oriental spices. The spices (pepper, cinnamon, etc.) are the stars, along with the amber, though sometimes it’s hard to distinguish them. The citrus notes stay in the background against the woody and spicy base. When I smell it, I think of the sophistication of the new British middle class, even with a nostalgic touch. Age: +30. Weather: -25°F (cool). I owe the longevity and fixative data to testing it in the store on blotter paper.
