    I noticed it, but the lemon isn’t there; it’s just lavender, vanilla, and that earthy note I can’t stand anymore. I like the camo design, but the scent is earthier than the original Phantom. My verdict: never again.

    I noticed it, but it doesn’t smell like lemon, just lavender, vanilla, and that earthy note I can’t stand anymore. I like the camouflaged design, but the scent is more earthy than the original Phantom. My decision is not to use it again.

  3. It’s making a lot of noise on social media, but it smells good on people. It’s not citrusy as they say; here I only detect vanilla and lavender, maybe a hint of lemon at the start. I wear it in the cold, ideal for winter. Two or three sprays are enough, it leaves a trail of a meter and lasts more than seven hours.

  4. A lot of bad press online, but in person, it smells good. It’s not citrusy as claimed; I only detect vanilla and lavender, maybe a hint of lemon at first. I wear it in cold weather; it’s ideal for winter. 2-3 sprays cover well, leave a 1-meter trail, and last over 7 hours.

  5. What more is there to say? It smells citrusy, sweet, and super simple. I use it for grocery runs or running errands around the house. Rating: 7/10.

  6. What a surprise that it took four perfumers to create something so basic. It smells good, easy to wear, and perfect as a signature. Watch out: it comes with a refillable atomizer because you need to reapply every two hours; the longevity is pathetic. I wouldn’t buy it again.

    I don’t get the hate. Maybe it’s the robot or the YouTube videos, but I love it. It smells of smoky lavender with acidic lemon and earth, which then sweetens up. It’s one of my favorites. Longevity isn’t beast mode (6-7 hours and 1.5 hours of projection), but if you let it settle, it improves to 8 hours and 2 hours. I found it at half price and have no regrets.

    Delicious, fabulous, a masterpiece! The notes are well combined. It opens with that ‘lemon zest’ vibe that makes you feel happy. In the dry down, there’s smoke, but nothing lordly—just mysterious and versatile. I love it because at 30, when I wear it, I smell like an adult, not old, but friendly and mysterious, with a playful and young heart. Much better than the classic Phantom. Sometimes it gives off chocolatey vibes. Excellent longevity. Micro-applied.

    Delicious, fabulous, a masterpiece! The notes blend perfectly. It opens with that ‘lemon enthusiasm’ that puts you in a good mood. In the dry down, there’s smoke, but not heavy; it’s mysterious and versatile. At 30, it makes me smell like a friendly, playful adult, not old. Much better than the classic Phantom. Sometimes it smells like chocolate. Excellent longevity. Micro off.

    I think there’s a misconception about this perfume. You need to learn to know it properly. Longevity isn’t everything; it’s worth every penny you pay. Cheers.

    I think there’s a flaw in how it’s rated; it needs more time to be truly known. Longevity isn’t everything, the scent is, and it’s worth every penny you pay. Best regards!

    I grabbed it at half the original price and it smells great: citrus opening with lemon and lavender, top-notch trail. When it dries down, it’s smoky lavender, less projection, lasts 1.5-2 hours if it’s hot (evaporates quickly), but on my skin it reaches 6 hours and at school up to 7-8 hours. On clothes it’s a winner: the collar of my t-shirt smells good for two days in a row, until I wear it again. Ideal to use every 2 or 3 days, or daily if you don’t have anything else. Scent 8.5/10, longevity and trail 7/10, versatility 8.5/10, works for school and going out.

  13. I bought it at a good price, almost half the original cost. It smells great upon application: citrus with lemon and lavender, with a huge trail. As it dries, it’s smoky lavender with less projection, lasting 1.5 to 2 hours. If it’s hot, it evaporates quickly, but on my skin it lasts 6 hours and up to 7-8 hours at school. On clothes, it’s incredible; the scent lingers for two days. It’s for use every 2 or 3 days, or daily if it’s your only option. Scent: 8.5/10, trail and longevity: 7/10, versatility: 8.5/10. Ideal for school or going out.

    My previous review was in spring, and I just used it yesterday in summer at 33 degrees. I hadn’t touched it since November. With just a few sprays, it lasted all day; I reapplied at 6 PM and still smelled great until 11 PM, like a bubble following me. I think it got recharged by being stored in a cool, dark place. Now it lasts a ton and projects moderately. I don’t know what happened, but this robot got buff. Cheers.

    Let’s see: I love this perfume. I tested it several times in-store and it smells rich, better than the original Phantom. The presentation is 10/10, and the synthetic notes are well-balanced. It’s for daily wear, suitable for all seasons; it doesn’t overpower or feel cloying. REAFFIRMED: it smells delicious. I bought it on sale, so it works out, but the regular price (almost $100 or $150 USD) isn’t worth it due to longevity. After 3 hours, it’s skin scent and fades. If you reapply, it lasts over 7 hours. Recommendation: if you catch it on sale for under $80, buy it and be ready to reapply. If it’s $150, it’s only worth it then, knowing you’ll have to reapply every 3 or 4 hours. Cheers.

    Hey! I finally got the bottle of this perfume and it smells great. I used to glance at it from afar because special editions from other designers like Armani Diamonds On The Rocks or Acqua di Gio Instinct had disappointed me, but here I was pleasantly surprised. This version of Phantom is a bit more woody, less sweet, fresher, and has better projection—exactly what the original lacked. Its longevity is around 7 hours, without falling into that heaviness typical of PR perfumes like One Million Prive. All in all, it’s an excellent fragrance, buy it!

  18. Replying to those below: Fragantica unifies web reviews from English-speaking and Spanish-speaking USA users. That’s why there are currently 25 reviews for the USA version and none in Spanish. US launches usually happen before Hispanic countries due to budget reasons. When I can’t find Spanish reviews, I look for plenty in English. Greetings and blessings.

    It’s clear that the reviews and data on this page aren’t reliable; a perfume that isn’t even on sale yet already has votes.

  20. It hasn’t even launched and people already say they hate it, is everything okay at home?
