Lucky Brand Men's (1997)

Lucky by Bucky Brand

The problem with lucky is not that it's bad, but it's taht I've smelled it before. I've smelled a bunch of other colognes like it (though I'd be hard pressed to remember their names.) I think of a curve or polo or drakkar, or a Cool Water with a touch of baby powder in the top notes. It almost smells cheap, because of how similar it feels to other stuff I've experienced. like a designer imitator. Don't get me wrong though, it's not an imitator, it's quality stuff, but repetitive.

It's a very cool scent that lingers with some citrus and some spice, but that's all I can really identify. It has no real punch to distinguish it, nor alot of dimension, depth, and not much longevity (a couple of hours, not an all day cologne.) The best thing I can say about it is that it smells decent and won't turn people away, but it won't attract either. Buy Cool Water instead; even if it's recognized easily, you'll do better than have a noncommital cologne.

2 out of 5 for lack of character

FOUL. Couldn't get rid of it fast enough. A FAR cry from the later Lucky You fragrance. Simply smelled like a very cheaply done citrus. Steer clear, gentlemen!
