Monsieur Eau du Matin (2008)
by Jean Paul Gaultier

Overall, Eau du Matin smells mostly like lime and citrus oils accompanied by natural cedar essential oil. At first I thought that Eau du Matin kind of smelled like a boring version of Mugler Cologne, but with deeper inspection, they're actually quite different. Eau du Matin might smell less interesting than Mugler Cologne, but that's because it's not loaded with synthetic ingredients (a strange anomaly for a fragrance from Jean Paul Gaultier).

While at first I wasn't blown away by Eau du Matin, I've grown to love it. One of its major selling points for me is the cedar note, which, to my surprise is actually natural cedar and not the cheaper alternative, Iso E Super (a synthetic aromachemical reminiscent of cedar).

While sillage and longevity are the pits, that's the price one pays for quality ingredients. At least it's decently priced.

8.75/10

I really like it. And that´s because I got this really cheap. Doesn´t last long, but isn´t supposed to anyway. I would not pay the full price for this... But it still smells really good, so definitely thumbs up.

I tried it at Lane Crawford Hong Kong. It smells nice, but I wasn't sure if I should pay that sum for a body spray.

Lovely light fresh fragrance along the lines of Mugler Cologne. The real shame about this is that it is so light I wonder if its worth wearing it! Thats its only downfall to be honest. I do think its made to be a body spray of sorts, but even at that its so fleeting I'm not sure if its worth it.

For that reason I have to give it a neutral. The fragrance itself gets a thumbs up but with this level of longevity, I cant give it a thumbs up.

very light ~herbal smell Good!!
you can wear it everytime everywhere~

I smell Melon...nice greenish non toxic, mild and not overly sweet melons, or was it guava??? But it is nice...but alas not staying. I got 4 hrs tops out of 10 sprays. Why oh why does the good ones fade so fast!!!! Nevertheless, i will spray 20 sprays tomorrow to see if it stays up to 8 hours, highly doubt it but will definitely try. It is a good frag.
