   |  it smells of freshly mowed grass with dew drop on a sunny day. yeh, it smells quite fresh, real and intense...with excellent sillage(needless to say with azzaros). not bad atall. i would rate it over Vetiver Hombre and to an extent on par with Mugler cologne..the only problem is? the opening notes. 09 September 2009 |
   | It's a nice grassy smell, but there's not much too it. I haven't tried other vetivers. It lasts a decent amount of time and is inoffensive. Smells like freshly cut grass, good for what it's going for. 27 June 2009 |
 |  The scent of some sort of toxic lawn chemical.Or an insecticide. for every redeeming note, there seems to be 10 toxic ones. I mean literally quite toxic. My least favorite fragrance I have ever tried. Thumbs toes all digits down. 24 June 2009 |
  | This isn't great. The top notes are a wet vetiver and some kind of obscure floral bouquet. The dry-down (5 min in) smells like an essence of stale gingerbread cookies, dried mosses and earth. It's rather pungent, if not altogether bad. Of course you don't get a very high-quality, natural vetiver in this price range, but that's not much of a surprise. This is still just a bit on the 'acrid' side to justify a neutral. It's DEFINITELY not the worst fragrance I've smelled. 17 June 2009 |
  | If you disregard the name, and realize that it's dirt-cheap, it's a decent fragrance. Sure, it has a bit of a harsh beginning, but softens to a nice combination of grass, tea, galangal and, yes, a tiny touch of the Big V. I find that it lasts for many hours and, on fabric, for days. Perhaps it might be a nice base for layering. 24 May 2009 |
 | Pure vetiver? No. Sexy? Yes. Cheap smelling? Sometimes, I guess. Worthy of all the apparent contempt? No. Attracting of compliments? Yes! This stuff basically smells like fresh-cut grass in summer, and that is good. It lasts about 10 hours and has good projection. I like it (for what it's worth). 14 February 2009 |
