Reviews of Fever pour Homme (2004)
by Céline

Very interesting. I smell a very spicy cinnamon-y scent with cedar. Must be cardamom and incense. This is definitely spicy and woody. Fresh, too. Yet feels somewhat chemical to me. (All fragrances are chemicals! HAHA). Much better than Celine pour Homme.

I love it. I find it similar in vain to Mugler Cologne and Truth for Men by Revelations (Not CK). However, the frankincense incense note is absolutely what makes this one stand out a little bit more from the others. Fantastic!

Wow, this is one of the best blind buys. It reminds me of Dunhill Edition, which is ranked in my top 5. Very incense-like, soft, full-bodied and modern. Will buy again for sure!

A dull and uninspired new fragrance, slightly reminiscent of the eponymous original Celine pour Homme. Tumulte for Men is a much better creation, not surprisingly from the same creators, InterParfums. Although its a nicely created woods and citrus aroma, the lasting power and sillage are disappointing and I can think of at least 5 other scents that I would prefer to wear before ever reaching for Fever.

I'm wearing (fully) for the second time Celine Fever pour Homme. Since I wore this for the first time last week I've been sniffing repeatedly the back of my hand trying to reveal to myself this intriguing aroma. Now I think I did: First, the opening is very spicy and aromatic, kind of sharp but settles down quickly; just a tad of citrus as well on it. The middle notes are balsamic with a very prominent and warm frankincense note that lingers with interesting power. The drydown uncovers a light woody aroma, maybe a blend of sandalwood and cedar but the frankincense note is still there and will remain there almost until the end. The very last vestiges of this fragrance on my skin, after 8 or 10 hours, are very soft and clean with traces of musky vetiver. I much suspect that the intended theme for this scent was the frankincense accord.

To my nose, in the overall, this fragrance is subtle, warm, with a clean edge to it. It could have a more interesting heart in my opinion, and a little bit more projection, though. I feel this can be worn easily to work. I received a compliment this morning when getting on the elevator.

Fever is a very good, new fragrance by Celine. It is a solid warm and spicy scent that has very nice staying power. This seems a real step up from the last Celine for men. It's very well packaged and just may be another big seller for the company. It's definitely worth a try. Joshaugustt
