I used to own this frag back in high school and loved it. I remember getting compliments on it all the time. I had forgotten about it for twenty years until I saw it on Ebay and purchased it for under $20. It is a very clean and fresh masculine scent that harmoniously blends sweet citrus notes with lavender. I can also detect a very slight camphor note that lingers in the background. As someone mentioned, it does have similarities with Eternity, just not as sharp. For the price, you can't pass up Mackie if you are wanting a quality addition to your collection.

undeveloping 90's typical lavender scent. very boring and green. not much else to say.

I find this to be a perfect hot-weather-loafing-on-a-weekend scent. Light and citrus fruity, but not too sweet, Mackie doesn't develop too much. It becomes somewhat more powdery and less sweet as it dries. It's in the category of masculine citrus/fruit scents (ie Dunhill Desire, Brook Brothers, MB Individuel) and is my favorite of this genre. Won't last long into the evening but not worse than average longevity. The bottle, which looks like a standard rectangle that has been bent into a prism, is very neat.

If you see an inexpensive bottle don't be scared to try (unless you require every cologne to be from an obscure high end house that only people on BN are aware of).

Pleasant fruity powder that is quite strong throughout. I find this excellent to wear in the cooler times due to its fizziness of the powder and can be overwhelming in the heat.

A nice enough fellow (green suit, green smile, green opinions), but he spouts a lot of cliches and is frankly a bit of a bore. Your mother might like him but, if I see him in the Faubourg Saint Germain, I shall pretend that we have never been introduced. (de Charlus).

Very pleasant, and can be bought on the cheap. Lots and lots and lots of positive reviews from others (male and female alike) on this one. A personal favorite for those days when I want to wear something light. Like Clinique's "Happy," and Dior's "Eau Sauvage Extreme," this one (for me) is always a "feel good" kinda fragrance.

It's Ok. Seems to smell a lot like Eternity to me. I do find it smells a ittle sour at the tail end of its drydown tho, but thats not a big deal just reapply a bit after a couple of hours. It does last a long time for being such a soft frag...all in all it's a good one but not great.

I can't believe this fragrance is not more popular. An excellent clean/fresh scent that's much more complex than others fragrances out there (Polo Blue, Chrome, etc...). Great smell and decent scent with better than average lasting power. This fragrance is perfect for casual wear or outdoor activities but also it's nice for romance.
