Guess Suede (2007)
by Guess

Fruity, uber sweet.
Yeah, it starts like Pi lite.
Gets a note like rotting banana skin or cantaloupe rind, about 30 seconds in.
Vaguely aromatic in a faux way.

I'm going to agree with foetidus on this one...WAY better than the original. I was satisfied with the price, you can usually find the whole set discounted. I got the whole SUEDE set, with the 5oz. body/hair wash, 5oz. after shave, and 2.5 oz cologne for $39.99.

I really rocked this one during the beginning of the fall. I like it as a transition fragrance.

A synthetic, fruity, leathery juice with a hint of vanilla. Not too strong, so it's not cloying. The initial blast smelled nice, but within a few minutes it's gone generic - the vanilla note is reminiscent of Pi, however while Pi's vanilla is more creamy "custardy", if you know what I mean. This one's vanilla is just kind of a synthetic, rubber gloves-kinda smelling vanilla.

This sort of gives off a coconut smell similar to Obsession Night for Men, but not as good.

I had my reservations about Guess Suede! Thank goodness I was not let down. That badly... Guess Suede seems promising from the bottle The initial blast is of fruits, woods, & suede! Im thinking to myself what a lovely combination here.. However I got this burst of suede into my nostrils which was almost to the point of being overbearing & I said good grief!!!! This stuff is POTENT! I like the structure of this cologne because the suede is there from beginning to end. If it were not for the suede, this would not b such a good frag. Mind you I dont care for suede in fragrances but it works here. More better than Guess Man, its still lacking something, altho longevity is good, 6+ hours I will go neutral here as this is not a bad scent!

Not a bad scent, in fact I think it’s better than the non-suede version, which I did not like at all. It opens with a watered-down spicy accord that has some artificial ambiance, but it is refreshing even though it has neither citrus nor an abundance of aquatics. I don’t think that there is anything special about the accord – it grows more synthetic as it goes along, but it’s wearable and it has some longevity. Actually I feel that the opening and middle accords are one and the same and that could account for the longevity. With the base, the synthetics have come to dominate, but still, I don’t actively dislike it, but it isn’t at all interesting. The base is supposed to be quite woody but I don’t get much wood – or suede for that matter, just a rather boring neutrality.

synthetic just like the other guess. lack of composition and very plain. if you go to dunkin donuts and get a dozen plain donuts instead of a mixture, this is for you.
