“This might not be the most exciting fragrance, but it is a true masterpiece of perfumery. It is well blended, clean, fresh, sophisticated, and classy.To be completely honest, when I first smelt it, it did seem boring compared to other fragrances I had. However, after a while and couple wears, I understood how great this fragrance is.The only slight downside (apart from the price) is the moderate longevity, which when compared with the price, is not the greatest.Although I have not tried the EDP version, I do prefer the EDT to the Parfum.”
“Without a doubt, this is a masterpiece and revolutionary fragrance.It opens with a burst of bright citrus and refreshing mint which is absolutely beautiful.However, after about 30, 45 minutes, the opening fades, and what you’re left with is a soft woody note. This is where I feel the EDT falls short. I wish that fresh opening stuck around longer, but I guess that’s what the Allure Homme line is for.TL;DR: I recommend checking out the EDP version. It keeps that same fresh opening but adds a deeper, creamier dry down thats worth the extra cost.Overall: 7/10.”
“Smooth, fresh, and effortlessly classy. That citrus-woody combo just works clean enough for the office, sexy enough for a night out. It’s one of those scents that makes you feel put-together without even trying. Timeless and always in style. The downside, on the other hand, is its price, as there are other perfumes that are like the Chanel or even better. Personally, I would get the Dylan Blue by Versace as it is way cheaper for the same performance.”
