Eryo (2002)
by Yves Rocher

Good fragrance from Yves Rocher. One of the first I purchased from them...got it with the very good shower gel and after shave balm (which has almost no scent). To me, this is a good, natural male fragrance that does more than one thing - it starts off bright with the bergamot and mint with green notes of crisp/sharp rosemary and then the dash of patchouli transcend it into a nice oriental-tinged vanilla/benzoin drydown. Not excellent but somewhat unique as it is a clean and lifted top (shower scent almost) with a warm bottom - I think it would be good for work as it is definitely not offensive or loud at all. I enjoy the blend - and feel YR did something decent here. People try to compare Yves Rocher fragrances to mainstream and it's difficult. I find that YR is usually about QPR and it almost always is very good - Eryo being another one that you should buy just to try. Like I said, good fragrance (6.5-7/10)...short on longevity for me - only 3-4 hours for me, but I don't like to heavily apply it.

Eryo is a very good spicy and woody oriental. The real standout aspect of this scent is the sharp woodiness and spices, which give this some teeth and last a good while. It's an oriental because of the vanilla in the base, but it's not heavy or super-sweet. If you like Arpege Pour Homme and are looking for something a bit spicier, Eryo may be just right for you. Excellent.

MY RATING: 7.5/10

A fresh take on the oriental family of perfumes. Sweet but with resins that are not too thick and loud like Obsession or Opium. Spicy yet clear, must be the mint but it's done very well. Mint is a major turnoff for me but here it seems to calm everything down into a nice sweet and spicy fragrance. Great price for the oz.

Strong? I get a classy cologne that reminds me of Obsession, but not as loud. This is quite subtle. I mean, don't bathe in it! Very elegant. One of Yves Rocher's best. It's lightly dark and woody and warm, but not nauseating as some of these sweet scents are. This is very nice. And it does last!

I love this scent it is a deep oriental with very deep mediterranean notes and influences.
It starts fresh and bright then warms ups with deep wood tones and settles on sweet notes of vanilla and tonka bean.
The scent is very high quality and lasts all day. Think of this scent as Nikos Sculpture meets Allure and Kouros came along for a threesome.
If you really want to stand out amount the crowd try this unique oriental.
