Reviews of Moschino Friends Men (2005)
by Moschino

I agree with Jon_Remy when he told it's similar to Hilfiger Athletics, but I don't think they tried to create their own version of T. Friends is more in the citrus side while T is really like clean laundry smell. In my opinion, T is far superior and longer lasting. It's the essence of cleaness. But Friends isn't a bad scent. It's in the same level of Athletics and if you have one, you don't need the other.
Good for casual wearing if you don't expect more than a refreshing citrusy smell.

Coolnose is sorta of correct, I get celery, too but it's sticking out of a glass of 7-Up. This is a slightly fizzy, vegetable/herbal citrus. Boss Pure got it right (instead of 7-UP it's Sprite), this one is just wrong but not ugly. Mediocre.

I love this fragrance! The notes from the top to the middle are refreshing and the bottom has just enough musk. It is a subtle fragrance which is the only drawback for me but I absolutely love it. It reminds me of walking along the Mediterranean seashore and I would HIGHLY recommend this to friends (or maybe not snce I don't want everyone smelling as good as me!!)

DKNY Women (funky double square cylinder bottle) came out in 1999 and when I discovered it I bought it for my now wife 'cause it was like pure clean attraction for me.
I have heard of Moschino Friends back in the US, but Moschino isn't doing so hot in the States. Now overseas I sampled Friends and it is virtually a "for mens" version of DKNY Women. I had to smell 'em side by side to tell the difference.
This is probably the most modern, energetic, bright, clean yet attractive (doesn't smell like Windex) scents out there for men. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Wierd. Notes should be an amalgam of different citrus but all I get is...celery, yes celery from beginning to end. Not horrible, just slightly not what I expected from a so called fresh citrus. Hope your friends aren't put off.

I wasn't impressed much with this one. It seems like Moschino was trying to create their own version of T by Tommy Hilfiger. The clementine is very prevalent in this scent. There is a dissonant note in there that made me walk away and not buy it. An hour later, I realized it was a good choice not to purchase, as it smelled absolutely rancid on my skin (maybe I was smelling my rancid skin though). This might work for some, but not for me. I'll stick to the T by Tommy Hilfiger as it remains with the clementine note on my skin for hours. Same for Hilfiger Athletics, but with a grapefruity/citrusy note instead. I also LOVE Hilfilger Athletics, but unfortunately it has been discontinued. Glad I bought 5 bottles (3.4-ounce size) when I found them.

Simple, fresh, and bright. Smells like Orange Juice from beginning to end, not much change. Lasts a good while for a citrus scent. I've been looking for a frag that closely resembles the smell of oranges and I finally found it. Thank You Moschino Friends!

WONDERFUL orangey/citrus! Very well done indeed!

Light, citrusy, refreshing scent. Somewhat unsophisticated but well suited for a day outdoors. It does smell like fresh linens somewhat.

A very bright and positive scent,made by Olivier Polge, that blends sparkling citrus notes with tangerine, and orange.Will be one of my summer favorites. I like it!

Hey, come on! I think Freinds is a great clean uncomplicated scent, wan't offend anyone, the only problem I see here is that many people would associate it with Pledge and similar house cleaning products as they overused actual CITRUS and now it's doomed forever! This is a great alternative for Clean (much raved fragrance-dunno why, although completely worthles for its staying power). friends to me smells: citrussy clean, shower fresh, like you just rolled in citrus leaves (petitgrain), or lemon drop if you like and here is the description and notes:
Moschino Friends Men is a tribute to friendship and made in Italy. The packaging alludes to the lively atmosphere of Italy, where the spirit of friendship is rich and passionate. The fragrance is citrus-like and colourful, with the strong freshness of the Mediterranean. Together, the packaging and fragrance form a special union - a special friendship - that creates a youthful fragrance, natural and spontaneous, suggesting the deep and sincere emotions of friendship. It's a new, lively and bright olfactive harmony, that blends the sparkling start of the citrus notes of the bergamot from Calabria, the tangerine, and the orange to a floral heart of courbon geranium and real Paraguay petitgrain, refreshed with a breath of Mediterranean sea breeze, and enwrapped in wood-musk notes.

I agree - a very odd citrus scent that smells identical to the Lysol I use for my garbage can - it's kinda funny and a bit uncanny.

This ain't no Friend of mine. I bought both the EDT and the After Shave and I've tried them both on three separate occasions. I don't know the make up of this scent, but there's SOMETHING in here, that I find almost revolting. I like their other colognes, but this is a rare thumbs down for me. Try this one before purchasing it. Joshaugustt
