Just Cavalli Man (2004)
by Roberto Cavalli

A Very Fresh, Green-Smelling Frag that has decent longevity.
Very close to Sonia Rykiel Homme (NOT Rykiel Man) without the fiir.
Nice, and not offensive. A bit soft at heart.
Available at a reasonable price for a quality fragrance.

When I first tried it, I did not like it. I guess the initial spray was very strong and not what I was expecting. After I walked a way and washed it off I decided to give it one more shot before shuffling the bottle in with my other 'rejects'. On the second time it was more fresh and not as synthetic smelling. It smells decent, very familiar smelling too.

The only reason I bought this is for the discount-$10 for 60ml bottle. It smells nice but very light and elusive. I smell hints of herbs, fruit and airy wood. It smells a little like Agua Fresca by Adolfo Dominguez, but not as medicinal as that juice. Pleasant, but not striking or memorable. Thumbs up for the price and the overall quality.

Lightly woodsy, musk. Kinda smells like tea, too. Also has a green-ish, leafy heart but it's not so pronounced. A very light scent good for casual wear.

Roberto Cavalli makes weired scents. There, I said it. I have now tried everything he has to offer for men, and with the exception of Just Cavalli Blue and Cavalli Black, his scents are very weired. Distinctive, but weired, very off the wall, dare I say avant-guard.
If you are the type that doesn't want to smell like any one else and you want something borderline exotic, Cavalli is for you.
This particular scent is strange because it opens with a heavy ginger which most likely will make you wonder what the heck is this stuff? But like the first (Cavalli Man) you gotta be patient with this stuff, and you need to sparay A LOT of it. For me I use anywhere between 10 and 18 to achieve what I believe Cavalli had in mind.
The next thing is that Cavalli scents are designed to be enjoyed not by the wearer, but by those around you. Many have complained about the lack of longevity, but it is only because they can't smell it after about an hour. I guarantee you that everyone else around you can smell it though, without bothering them one bit. Cavalli scents wear like Incanto by Ferragamo, another scent accused of having no lasting power at all.
The comparison to Cerruti Image is pretty close, though Cavalli has a gingery rather than orange blossomy-jasmine Image does.
This is not the popular choice but I am a Cavalli guy, and I recommend this and Cavalli Man for your collection if you are looking for that "stump 'em" fragrance. No one will be able to guess what you are wearing, except for maybe me if I am around =).

similar and almost the same what´s on the market today-nothing special-very expensive and simple!Roberto Cavalli is definitely a handsome man with a strong will and looking like a lion-why does he such bad sissi stuff for men?Not all are androgyn!Where are the real male scents folks?Okay,if it´s a present you may clean the carpets or the bathroom with it but do not complain if it smells worse than Mr.Proper...hehehhe...
