My love affair with colognes continues and GFT offers one of the most bracing citrus openings you'll encounter. The transition to the cypress and lavender heart takes place while the citrus still exists, very smoothly blended, the cypress doesn't dominate. The cedar base follows and the overall experience is fresh and clean without any calone; a winner then!

Longevity is above average for this excellent fragrance. Truly versatile GFT will not scare anyone in an office environment, but is also suitable for any occasion where one requires understated elegance.

I must say GFT is one of the most interesting fragrances I have tried as of late. At first I tried the shaving cream and was intrigued by its musk and woods and decided to order the cologne. I think the staying power is excellent lasting until the end of work. The sillage is modest, which is desirable for me and my coworkers. Though the scent is rather one dimensional, it eventually exposes the musk and moss base. Recommended! Now off to try Wellington and Marlborough.

Robust, yet rich lemon opening, that has sufficient sweetness to allow a pleasant and amiable descent into the drydown. The big cedar heart begins to pump, initially in unison with the citrus notes, then finally dominating the whole affair. A well balanced blend of diverse ingredients that succeeds in holding your attention for the majority of it's lifespan. Good longevity and sillage ensures that it gets a thumbs up from me

Love the opening but I have to agree with JackTwist, it turns a little sickening in the middle. Oh the cypress! It kills me like in Cypres-Musc by Creed. I recommend GFT if you like Cypres-Musc. The top notes in GFT really last long for being top notes, about two hours but the rest... blah. This is almost the same as Art of Shaving Lemon EdT but not as sweet and minus the cypress. Definitely refreshing and I love lemon scents so I can't turn my nose nose up at this. Did I mention the cypress?

I hate to add a negative response to an otherwise totally positive strain of reviews, so I will say that GFT's interaction with my skin and my nose is not a pleasant one. Yes, the initial burst of citrus is delightful and yes, it's long lasting. However, for me there develops after a half hour or so an unpleasant plastic aroma that takes over. This may be the tarragon which other reviewers like, but that does not react well with my nose. I have tried this twice from two different samples with the same result.

I'm glad everyone seems delighted with it and regret I can't join the crowd on this one.
