A very versatile fragrance for any season, I wore it on a winter night and it adapted, turned a bit tangier but nice, it’s gotten quite a few compliments and on me it lasts about 4-5 hours with good projection
Really nice scent, but it doesn’t last at all. I use it daily, but it doesn’t even reach 2 hours
It’s very similar to Carolina Herrera 212 VIP Black I Love New York and it also reminds me of Valentino Uomo Born in Roma Coral Fantasy
Youthful fragrance, up to age 18.
Exquisite fragrance. It’s not one of my favorites, but it’s a perfume that for its price is much better than many designer and Arabian ones going around out there. I recommend it for teenagers, women and men.
My opinion of Life is now by Pepe Jeans is that while the scent is really good, very fruity (especially pineapple smell in the opening), the projection is terrible, it doesn’t even last 1 hour, even though it’s a fragrance whose concept is to be worn for parties, its longevity isn’t good either, a little over 2 hours at most. I recommend wearing it to go to college or to the office. It doesn’t match its bar/party concept, but for daytime events it works well. 7.5/10
Pepe Jeans London “Life Is Now” Eau de Toilette Scent: Overall it’s a sweet perfume, the opening comes off a bit alcoholic and synthetic but after a while you don’t notice it anymore (like most cheap fragrances). In the opening the sweetness dominates thanks to pineapple and mandarin, and a few minutes later bergamot comes out a bit to give more brightness to the opening. Then in the dry down you start to notice a bit more amber in the background and above all lavender along with vanilla, although the latter isn’t perceived much because the fragrance is so sweet that it’s overshadowed by the citrus of pineapple and bergamot. In short, pineapple, bergamot, lavender and maybe vanilla dominate, the rest of the notes stay well below. Projection: 30 minutes at most, a shame because the concept is party and it doesn’t project for long. Longevity: Lasts a maximum of about 2 hours and 40 minutes. After that it’s already imperceptible close to the skin and that’s on cold days, in heat it must last much less. Price: without a doubt the best thing about this fragrance, it’s very affordable and that explains its characteristics. Scent: 7/10 Projection: 2/10 Longevity: 3/10 Price: 9/10 Final fragrance rating: 5.2/10 (Mediocre)
Well this fragrance was a gift from my partner and it pleasantly surprised me… I don’t perceive the citrus of pineapple even in its opening, from the moment you spray it you can feel that very very vanilla coffee smell, and woods that to my surprise weren’t synthetic at all (for the price you might think it would be poor quality). I wear it in cold weather to go to work and I get compliments from all my female coworkers, in fact one of them even asked me to buy it for her guy… that sweet and woody touch really charms, I’m using it a lot and I think when I finish it I’ll go for another bottle… Also, and what I like most about this fragrance, is that I find it versatile. You can wear it during the day, at night, in cold, in heat (not extreme)… it’s like an all-rounder. The value for money is unbeatable. Scent 8.5/10 Longevity 5/10 Projection 8/10 Would I buy again? without a doubt, although first I’d try the Celebrate For Him and the London Calling for Him
Reminded me of Jean Paul Gaultier fragrances. It’s a very rich and fresh fragrance. I didn’t find it alcoholic at all. I’d say youthful, for 30 and under. An 8.0
Personal rating: Scent 9/10 Moderate longevity of 1h to 2h you have to keep reapplying Compliments 10/10 it’s the fragrance that has gotten me the most compliments Versatility for hot and cold weather and any occasion, formal and informal, daily or party, elegant and playful Without a doubt it has become my go-to fragrance, too bad it doesn’t project that much and doesn’t last long but nothing that can’t be fixed with a few new sprays on your neck.
Opens a bit alcoholic, as the minutes pass and it evaporates a somewhat fruity aroma settles with a nice note of lavender and cinnamon. Dries down vanilla-like and powdery in the style of JPG Le Male. Vanilla and lavender prevail. In the final hours the fragrance smells a bit like baby powder, hard to explain. Average longevity, about 5 hours with 12 sprays.
I bought it at the time because of the number of positive reviews and well….. it’s not a bad fragrance, but for me it lacks power and longevity, coffee note? I prefer Halloween Man X, despite not being a beast, it lasts and projects more than this one, a shame, I thought I had bought a fake but no, it’s from a famous store, but it feels like they reformulated it or it’s not that great, but as always, fragrances are a matter of taste
Its opening is very very fresh and quite alcoholic, it smells for a few minutes of citrus fruits, very aromatic, pineapple, lavender and finally coffee aromas are quite noticeable. On my skin it didn’t last long, only about 3 hours, I recommend applying about 8 sprays. The value for money is more than reasonable, the bottle resembling a cocktail shaker is very well designed. In Argentina you can find it at a good price if you know where to look. Pros: it’s an exquisite eau de toilette, affordable, the price doesn’t take away from the product’s quality and it has an excellent scent. Cons: mainly the box which is huge compared to the bottle, 2 bottles would fit in the box, another downside is the very short longevity of the fragrance.
The sweetness of pineapple dominates in the opening, in the drydown it feels excellent with that delicious toasted coffee smell, without a doubt it’s a bomb. I recommend it. Rating: 9.5/10
It starts with a sweet, very pleasant and explosive opening. Then over the hours what remains close to the skin is a toasted coffee with nutmeg and a small touch of vanilla. In the blend of all the notes, I perceive a hazelnut-like flavor with a touch of coffee in the background. Important: its longevity does last, I noticed it when smelling my shirt, the point is that after a few minutes it becomes very linear and the smell simply goes unnoticed. The bad thing is the atomizer sprays too much perfume, with 5 sprays I used about 2ml.
Rich fragrance for cold days and especially at night, it’s not a formal perfume, I find the price excellent, my partner doesn’t like it much when I put on too much, since it’s a very sweet perfume and that can become cloying.
It was one of those so-called blind buys. At first I didn’t like it much because while the opening is quite sweet, the alcohol presence feels too strong, making it somewhat synthetic. However, after 5 minutes, with the alcohol a bit more in the background and settled on the skin, it is quite a wearable scent, recommendable in my humble opinion for young people up to 30 years old. I found it crazy that no one had mentioned Only The Brave by Diesel (one of the first perfumes I used and that I still own for more relaxed wear), the scent seemed quite similar to me, if not almost identical. As for sillage and longevity, it is moderate, the first 3-4 hours then closer to the skin for about 8 hours, after that the scent reminds me of baby powder, on clothes it lasts a little longer though without much more success than on skin. I would only recommend buying it if you can get it for under 27 dollars.
A fragrance that is sweet and fresh at the same time, super versatile and youthful, but not for teenagers, rather for men with a youthful attitude. As the hours go by, it becomes warm thanks to the coffee and vanilla and it is very pleasant. Good sillage and longevity and its bottle is very original and pretty, a super original cocktail shaker that matches the glass of its feminine version. Excellent and affordable!!!
Well, I had this flirty little perfume and, honestly, it was a blind buy I didn’t regret. Very good fragrance, on me it had very good performance. A sweet coffee and vanilla smell, exquisite. At times it reminded me a lot of UOMO by Salvatore Ferragamo. It has that coffee cake touch, achieved thanks to the roasted coffee. I recommend it, get rid of those doubts, I assure you it won’t fail. 6 hours longevity and projection for the first 3 hours, then more intimate but a very nice smell. If you’re trying to win over a girl or two hehehe. Well-made mid-range. You can’t go wrong here. Cheers.
I purchased this fragrance a few days ago, along with its feminine counterpart (at a price of almost 40 US dollars for both) mainly because of the quite striking presentation for me, as I am a lover of the bottles from the Valentino Uomo line. I have to say that the mandarin, bergamot and pineapple opening I don’t like at all, I don’t find it pleasant. If they had given me a freshly applied test strip, I would have thrown it away right away, but luckily I first smelled it from the atomizer, when the top notes had dissipated a bit giving way to lavender, coffee and vanilla, resulting in a smell that while not original, is pleasant and mass appealing, sweet and a bit fruity. My nose predicts a similarity to Versace Eros, without being as cloying with a very enjoyable coffee base. A good option for hot spring and summer days; matching it with the 15-25 age range. It’s cheap, and the bottle would stand out in any collection. I recommend buying it because of the low price. Rating: 7/10
Plasticky-artificial concoction that is impossible to grasp and not even worth reviewing. They’d better stick to fashion, they’ll surely do better there
A very pleasant perfume with a scent reminiscent of a fusion between 2 successful fragrances like Fuel for Life Homme by Diesel and Invictus by Paco Rabanne. It’s a blind buy you can’t go wrong with and if it’s for a gift it’s a sure hit, its longevity is quite good, I highlight those fruity notes with coffee that give it something interesting and sporty.
There’s not much to add about this fragrance since it resembles other fruity masculine scents recently launched on the market, like Invictus by Paco Rabanne, Jimmy Choo Man or Coach for Men, just to say that like its female counterpart its checkered cocktail-shaker bottle is quite eye-catching, it smells like a fruity cocktail between Piña Colada and Primavera, performance is average, the for her version far surpasses it by being an eau de parfum versus this for him which is an eau de toilette concentration, but you can’t ask too much from a market novelty offered at such a good price, ideal use for young guys from +15 to -25 Rating: 5/10.

Plasticky, artificial mess that’s impossible to defend and not even worth reviewing. They should stick to fashion, they’ll surely do better there.
Smells great, but it fades in a flash. A total failure for daily wear; it doesn’t even last two hours.
