What wearers say

“Man, I absolutely love this fragrance but I also absolutely hate the performance.I wouldn't hesitate a full bottle purchase if I could get more than 4 hours out of it but no matter how much I overspray this one just doesn't last.This one has an amazing fruity, juicy, opening and the dry down is just beautiful. I'd give it a 9/10 for fragrance but a 4/10 for longevity.”

“A linear mango fragrance. This fragrance does not smell like Aventus like many claim. It smells like Haze Blue by Aaron Terence Hughes with mango instead of pineapple. It lasts long but it does not project very well-even in high temperatures. Not worth the price.”
A member of a leading fragrance community
“super nice a smooth mango. think aventus and sauvage with a mix of tropics. i think its beautifully blended and is complex for the scent profile. sure its expensive but if you have the money i say do it, its among my favorite summer scents along with greenley and lafayette street! im someone who favors winter scents over summer so no summer scent to me is a 10/10, but as far as a summer scent profile goes, blockade is a 9.5/10.”
