These notes don't lie, however they also don't like me and I don't like them. The top note of apple makes this smell like watered down apple juice. No sweetness. A middle of spices and a funky weird powdery floral (assuming it's the musk and lilac combination) near the end before it poofs out of existence in 2 hours.

Something odd has happened to Forte. I bought some in Paris a couple of years ago having first bought it in NY. Forte is now being sold in London again so I bought some a month ago, it just is not the same product. The initial top notes are the same but what is left following the dry down seems to be an altogether different product and it appears to have half the longevity of the original, it is a great shame that this should have been allowed to happen. How I regret not having really stocked up in Paris.

I detect the same essence in Eau de Caron Forte that I find offensive in Body Kouros. It's not as strong but it's unmistakable. Some people adore that Kouros accord and an equal number detest it. Count me in the latter. I blindly purchased a 3.4 oz bottle of Eau de Caron Forte on Ebay that will now go unused. For me, there isn't anything in this that I find appealing.

This is spectacular out of the bottle.
The longevity seems to be decent. On my skin it wears very similar to Green Irish Tweed, It's not that it smells exactly like it, but it has a similar kind of vibrancy. I'd pair this with a navy blue or linen jacket,and a colored shirt. This is a fragrance that is confident, but still mellow. I agree with the above review -seems better suited for the warmer sunny days.

Very appropriate for spring/summer weathers, Eau Forte is a great fruity fresh offering from Caron. It has top notes of apple, orange and black currant which are kept from being overly sweet by coriander and bergamot notes. It all comes together extremely well to create a unique well blended fragrance. Underrated, and deserves more attention.

These words actually concern the pure version- which isn't yet featured in the directory. Geir Ness immediately comes to mind when sniffing Eau de Caron Pure. Same type of sparkling, white floral freshness, but done masculinely here as well. Also it's good to see that Caron, home of 2 of great powerhouses - Yatagan and 3rd Man, has some contemporary offerings to. A keeper.
