    Wow, Narciso Rodriguez for Him is a weird scent to be sure. I definitely get the wet concrete accord others have frequently mentioned. It is fresh, but dry and completely cold at the same time. I really have never smelled a scent really like this, with the closest being White Sea by Micallef, and that is really more like wet clay, not concrete. NR for Him is unique, but not really my kind of scent. I give NR for Him a weak thumbs up for originality, but I think I will stick with White Sea that is much more wearable, IMO.

    Narciso Rodriguez for Him by Narciso Rodriguez - Welcome to the Twilight Zone !! The paltry, note listing belies the complexity of this fragrance. Initially, one is bombarded with a lovely, sweet and woodsy violet, whose brilliance is amplified by aldehydes, an amazing, wet concrete, a graceful wave of petrichor, that special smell of earth, caressed by raindrops after a dry spell, a flint smell and an intense mustiness from the patchouli. This surreal melange is enshrouded by a wet, foresty lushness, with flittering specks of flavorful licorice. The welcoming heart kidnaps the explosive opening and fosters its taming. Lovely violet leaves, with their inherent freshness, inspire an equisitely extreme, green aura akin to grass clippings with a shading of cucumber. Versatile patchouli imparts it nutty and earthy facets. Seductive amber, with its deep, somewhat woody and vanillic dimensions, and white musk, with its dirty sweetness add some powderiness to the blend. The robust base overtakes this humbling middle, where the multifaceted patchouli raises its faintly peppery and herbal heads as well as its mulch-like property. Dry cedar, pencil shavings as well as camphoraceous pine supply intriguing woods. And, evocative, animalic musk, where fecal pellets from critters as well as pubic sweat harmonize, contributes to the fantastical drydown. This extremely masculine and unique composition has very good projection, 4-5 hour scent cloud, and longevity, 7-12 hours - easy on the trigger is the catchphrase here. This atypical fragrance is not for the faint of heart.

    This is one of the unique things that I have smelled in my life. This is emotion trapped in a bottle.

    The emotion is sad. This is definitely a sad emotion and out of this time. It is sad and old. I am in love with this fragrance since the first smell.

    The grey colored bottle defines this fragrance very good. This is very very gray. This is not for every one. Do not blind buy this.

    I like the bottle design but the smell is strange and unpleasant. It is definitely unusual and doesn't smell like anything else I have tried.

    Really really like the opening.. as in the 1st 10 minutes...I can see the wet concrete reference a little bit.
    After 10 minutes, im bored and want to wash it off.
    Maybe violets/lavenders don't seem to last long enough for me.

    There are better frags out there and the ratio to thumbs up/ thumbs down should be your clue to move on and try something else.

    Giving it a neutral...barely
