STRONG. Do not go overboard with this one. It is pleasant with one spray. Definitely has a warming affect, and I recommend it for the colder months.
Don't hate, don't love it....its just Joop.

Well, if, and only if, you spray yourself with this one time, two at the absolute most, it is nice. Anymore than that and its pure torture to the point of death by noxious gas. HOWEVER, in small (miniscule is more like it) amounts this stuff actually reminds me of very sweet Nag Champa Incense, which I like alot. If worn as such, I find it very appealing.

A thumbs up when used in trace amounts. A thumbs down when overused. Neutral because of the danger involved!

Ah...the classic Joop! I bought this reading some "fabulous" reviews online about it. That was a big mistake. The lasting power is amazing, which for this one is not a good thing. It is sooo flowery and sweet that it induces headaches. Also, it never really dries down to anything nice, it simply stays Super sweet (for hours). I couldn't even wash it off when I wanted to. Simple advice, try it before you buy it. It could be okay, but only for a Really adventurous person..or someone who is not looking for a date.

If you survive the topnotes, then the drydown is fairly decent. The middle notes are very sweet and floral but they are not lasting long. The base (which have good longevity) combines a cardboard/sawdust note with vanilla and something that smells burnt; there is some sweetness, too. This may sound like a very weird combination but it actually works. When to wear this fragrance is an open question, though.

I'm reviewing this after ~8 yrs. of owning it. I think I had that bottle of colgne for like 10 yrs so I guess that does say its not for everyday use.
As a fragrance it is a great and unique scent that is sweet and oriental. It seems to linger low--that is if you put on just a little.
But as for buying more today that is a negative. Yes, for one it became quite trendy. And it seems like its for a younger lad maybe because I was in high school when I first got it. I enjoyed it while I had it of course that is why I bought it. So thumbs up for actual scent + thumbs down for wearability = neutral.

One more time again.. AS Basenotes says "..."PLEASE DON'T SPRAY YOURSELF IN HALF A BOTTLE OF IT BEFORE YOU GO OUT..." I agree to! This fragence is very exotic! I love joop! I've been using this fragrance from two years now and I can't stop using it. Very nice, cool!

I dont really know what to think of this scent. When I first bought it I was very fond of it. These days I find it a bit cloying and not very masculine. Even a tad bit cheap smelling. At the same time I find it has something compelling about it. Personally I think Cristoball Balenciaga PH is a better alternative in the same category.

I actually had a girlfriend who wore the eau de parfum, and so i tried the PH version... It is strong allright, women notice it from distance, and I like it a lot...

Ever since JH was launched I have flirted with it, fought with it, loved it, hated it...I don't know what to do with this scent. It's definitely masculine and I still don't dare wear it. Still, there's someting indescribable in it that's enthralling to me. The beautiful presentation and the color fit the spice and the warm notes. I understand why it's one of the most controversial scents ever. Need not say anything about sillage and longevity. This has to be the benchmark for everything else.

I have a mixed opinion about this cologne. It's really unique, very recognizable, but I think it's done the wrong way. It's too 'something,' maybe too strong or too weird. I don't know, I liked it the first time I smelled it, but it seems my opinion has changed (or my tastes.) Don't make a blind purchase of this cologne, smell it first. It's a love it or hate it relationship when it comes to Joop.

Joop! is crazy, so crazy it ends with an excalmation point! I might like it again for that alone! Joop! was my second fragrance at at age 15! That's a scary picture right there-- some hormone-laden teen boy with a heavy finger and a Joop! bottle! I would not wear it now, but maybe in, like, 20-30 years when all those I see/smell wearing Joop! have moved on to Acqua di Gio, and I am semi-senile! I always seem to smell Joop! on cheesy male-stripper types and older divorced guys with bad hair! Count me out! I like the way my skin wears the scent, though-- it's oriental and ODD!
