For a scent named SAMOURAI, this is hardly cutting edge. It starts off fresh, finds some mild cedar and then fades to light vanilla - all within 3 hours. Rather simple and easygoing though a harsher critic might call it an attempt at minimalism gone wrong.

Based on word of mouth, I wanted to like this more, but I basically smell a nice mild aquatic that dries down into vanilla. For fans of vanilla, this is probably great, but it's one of my least favorite fragrance backbones, so I can't really enjoy it.

Reminds me of Canali's line of frags especially Black Diamond (which is awesome). A good cologne without it going overboard. Fresh woody with a bit of vanilla.

Fresh and deliciouswith a fruity,creamy opening.The fruit lasts but combines with floral and leather notes (maybe the tarragon)on the drydown reminding me of Joop but more complex.
I love this fragrance-it moves from fresh and invigorating to sexy and sensual and on me it lasts well too.This one's a winner!

For me its the best everyday's scent for almost all kind of occasions. Brilliant, sparkling, sexy, modern while not pushing or follwoing a particular trend. I am always returning to Samourai and its for me the closest of being the signature scent. Its not easy to grab hold of it. Its among the top selling fragrances in Japan!
Its the first one of my top ten:
Samourai by Alain Delon> for being the best everyday scent
Elements by Hugo Boss> for being the perfect autumn smell
Green Jeans by Gianni Versace> for being the ultimate outdoors smell
Sport de Paco rabanne> for being the perfect springtime fragrance
Vetyver by Fragonard> for being the perfect summer scent
AD by Alain Delon> for being the very first and surviving all the way. Brilliant in the winter
Bijan men by Bijan> for having the comfortable, warm aura of home
LHomme by Gianni Versace> for smelling like perfect summer glamour
Egoiste Platinum by Chanel> for being the perfect cool gentlemen fragrance
Salvatore Ferragamo> for smelling like grandmas backgarden

Just missed the top ten>
