Truly repulsive opening.
overpowering Cardamom spice. Smells too much like a savory cooking spice
Drydown is a little more floral, and less foul, but unspectacular.
Few things make me fee sickky - this did.

What a weird scent! Are we sure the pyramid notes are not upside down? For me it begins with a strong base of cedarwood and sandalwood with a hint of jasmine, but an hour afterwards turns into one of the most " perfumy " concoctions imaginable.
I'd say teenybopper feminine, but I have too high a regard for 13 year old girls that (excusably) wear Tommy Girl. Come to think of it, it's far more irritatingly floral than TG. Is it the Jasmine? Cardamon, cilantro or cumin? Spices Gone Wild?
I neither know nor care, but this barbershop has gone mod mondo bizarro.
I wonder what Admiral Nelson would think? Oh Well, can't win 'em all . . .

The opening of Trafalgar is very promising. Sharp yet slightly floral, it was a nice barbershop fragrance, as you might expect from T & H. I liked it a lot, even if it wasn't terribly distinctive. The problem was/is the drydown, wherein I detected a "cedar-and-mellon" mix that I really didn't like. Longevity is moderate, but since I didn't care for this after about thirty minutes, that was a bit of a blessing. My sense is that Truefitt & Hill wanted to make this something of a traditional fragrance with modern elements. The modern part went astray, IMHO. Stick to their traditional fragrances, which are worthy,
