Fragrance Reviews by Cologne Man

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew...<br>Sweet, at first whiff. Didn't even move my head near the back of my wrist where I sprayed before sweeet Orange Blossom and Floral Accord permeated my nostrils. I think of Purple when I smell this one..the color that is.<br><br>As far as its function...<br>Perform FDM on a HOT summer day near the ocean. The breeze will carry a drydown YOU CAN'T RESIST. Its quite the 'powder persona', I'll admit. Some of the original Le Male stands behind it though.....<br><br>Fleur du Male is pure novelty ladies.<br><br>Gentlemen, I hope you are the confident-masculine type. This one is PH balanced for a Man and can suit some Women!<br><br>Apply FDM approx 20 minutes prior to stepping out. The drydown will have already kicked in, and people won't wrinkle their noses.

Smells like a very cheap version of Versace's Black Jeans.

Im not sure what this was....I sprayed it.....and......it smelled like air, lime, and...water, seriously...I wasted my money on this one from a "blind" order.
Jil Sander recommends, SUNMEN!
also 'Background' if you can find it.....

This one carries "soapy" and clean OB (Orange Blossom)smell!
Perform Prada Man during aromantic evening, too sweet and formal for every day wear.....

I hate reviewers some times. Or maybe Im too gullible, but based on Base Noters this is the "most UNIQUE fragrance ever!!!"

Not really.

Not bad either, but........not a first, second or 30th choice of mines..(I own over 70 colognes)

Comparisons:

Antaeus by Chanel +(add bay rum riched saturation= Havana)

Sung by Alfred Sung -( Subtract the soapy/powdery/floral installation= Havana)

Over Priced!
Rare, and totally understandable why.

Definitely not a boring scent, its busy behavior on your skin will wrinkle your nose at first if your are a conventional cologne wearing guy.
This Aramis effort lands in the unusual category, but not spectacular.

I'd wear it to a funeral, in Haiti.

My girlfriend thinks I smell like an "Old Grandma" when I wear this one. But I don't care! I like this one. Its Floral, Powdery, and I get of artificial banana-ish flavor...Whatever it is, its definitely a Blast from the past, Sunday type scent.
You wear this on a date, and its appropriate, not pushy.

I had HIGH expectations for this one based on reading the fellow base noters reviews but....unfortunately it wasn't what it could have been. It has no character. It's common. Far from unique and loaded with sweetness. Not what you would expect from the Kiton family. Absolutely NO dryness. If I had to make a comparson, I'd say it resembles a cheap smelling Mall Kiosk cologne called INSURRECTION.
Napoli falls into a category of sweetness to the likes of Burberry Brit.

In Fact, it is very similiar to Brit, but Napoli lacks Brit's coolness and distinction.

I was in Nordstrom's when I discovered this CLASSIC scent. At first whiff...DEJA-VU definitely kicks into gear, so you keep smelling, wondering of you will EVER figure that scent out?!?!?......but you won't. It's extremely masculine with a certain distinction. Not for teens. This is a Man's perrogative here. It does lend to this 'rubbery' type accord other Basenoters proclaim, but not in a bad way. Dry sweetness, throughout.
The drydown is coooool. Sweet coolness, imagine Bijan Style.

I THINK I FIGURED OUT THE DEJA VU!!!

Bijan Style

..Yup, intially the Bijan Stlye scent is IDENTICAL to Kiton. In Style however, there is a herbal Tea like sourness, same dryness though! Kiton's drydown takes literally the term, DRY, unlike Style which is sour.

Of the Kiton Family, this is the more 'sensual' of the 3. If you remember original Kiton, there IS an obscure prescence of a Sweet/Dry 'rubberyness' found in this Black...but the Leather is prominent as well as the Red Berries in the TOP notes.

On a less 'sophisticated' review, I think of 'Chocolate Roses' in odd but alluring combination.

In Napoli Kiton....nope, not ONE similarity...so

1. -Kiton (Office Wear/Single Man)
2. -Kiton Black(Romantic Man/Evening Wear)
3. -Kiton Napoli (Last Resort)
