Fujiyama Homme (1996)
by Succès de Paris

Smells like a bit sweeter but cheap smelling L'Eau D'Issey PH. Lasting power and smell is not as good as Issey but still better longevity than other colognes priced at 20 bucks. Overall, this smells of (very) low quality ingredients. Save a 20 dollar bill.

A nice fuzzy citrus opening with a bit of pepper in the middle. Dries down into a smooth spicy light vetiver-esque note. Might smell "cheap" to some due to its watery-ness.

I did like the smell and i like how it fixates on me. Ladies that smell me like it too. If you are willing to have a better smell with better ingredients and better fixative definitely invest a little more money on Issey Miyake.

Fujiyama has a fresh opening—reminds me a bit of Hei but not as clean or subtle and more synthetic. It really doesn’t seem much like Issey to me; there’s no citrus or pineapple-type notes. Something about the middle is not right—I don’t find the combination of notes particularly pleasant—kind of a weak body odor smell mixed with a sweet bell pepper note: The errant accord might be caused by the cardamom creeping up from the base. When the pimento disappears, the aroma switches from unpleasant to nondescript. As the others have noted, it doesn’t project very much, which is not necessarily a bad thing. If a person would really like this type of fragrance, I think they would find that Hei by Sung has more pleasant accords and in put together with more competancy

Salty fruit and honeysuckle is what comes to my mind when thinking of Fujiyama. The floral notes make it a somewhat femminine scent although they are offset by a masculine base of pimento and salt. Lacks depth somewhat. Below average longetivity. Light acidification.

This is L'Eau D'Issey but without the high cost and doesn't last as long (this last for all of five minutes). Both smell very similar and I could care less for either one of them.
