Fragrance Reviews by deaconford

This is an refreshing fragrance with one drawback, the lasting power isn't all that great . I can't think of anything that has fig in it that i don't like anyway.

A decent, nothing complicated type scent. Something you could wear everyday, but not something i would wear out with my wife.

Very sharp topnote. Smells somewhat like subtil, by salvatore ferragamo, and the new polo black.

Man this stuff is so sweet you could almost drink it out of the bottle, but in a good way. Lasts all day.

This is very well put together fragrance. Deep, dark ,and mysterious, and declaration copied this, or was declaration first?

Green garbge. How can anything this old not have any staying power. Then again why would anyone want to smell like a cheap tonic prepared for sore throats?

Another sleeper, this smells like they revamped their aqua cologne and mixed in a little Vera Wang to create an awesome fragrance

Man this is really a nice aquatic watery type fragrance. Underestimated, and smooth at the same time.So much fresher than alot of stuff on the market that is supposed to be fresh.

This is elegance in a bottle indeed. A nice fougre, chyrpe type fragrance with the masculinity still present.

I didn't think too much of it, but I recieved alot of compliments on this at work. therefore I will give a thumbs up based upon fan review.

This is kind of bitter and for all of ingredients listed, there's just one prominent note that sticks out and messes this one up.

This is a very sophisticated an elegant piece of work. I can't believe it was created that long ago, and still have so much depth to it. Two thumbs up!!!

It took this mistake to get gucci Ph to be created the right way. Smells like a cedar chest, nothing else

I don't smell any of the other ingredients outside of the wooooooooooooooddddy smokiness, but it has to be there because i like this one for some reason.

It is an allright fragrance, nothing to write home about,fresh clean like so many of the other fragrances out there right now.

Old school opening, very harsh and strong, but the new school comes through and saves this from being a mess.

The sweetest thang since my wife, supersweet yet strong enough for a man to wear, and smell good and get lot's of complements.

This is an O.K. fragrance, not a showstopper or nothing but a decent fragrance.

Man this is some awesome stuff... A contrast on sharp and mellow. I love the hazelnut and mocha, that is what makes this fragrance the BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's o.k. I mean I was expecting so much more due to all the raves and hype. Doesn't smell like curve as i've heard so many people say. O.K.

Well made. I'm really starting to dig the whole line from herrera, they are making everybody else step up their game.

DA BOMB! Starts out fruity and soon thereafter develops into something mysterious and dark, somewhat like the black bottle of jacomo, but so much better!!!!

Another smash hit by azzaro. Excellent colder weather fragrance, or that night out with your lady, or that sunday go to meeting special.

A nice and mellow scent that plays close to your skin and leaves a fresh waft after you walk by.

No big deal, so I thought. Maaaannnnnnnnnyyy compliments when i wear this one. Almost time for me to purchase another bottle.

OH man some of the stinkiest stuff ever captured in a bottle.A major letdown compared to the sucess of the first one.

Man, this is some good juice in this bottle. Speaking of which, the colors on this bottle is cool but that same bottle shape is dead now.Step up yo game.

This is very nice and fresh cologne. That wears very well in the summertime, but you can get away with wearing it on some cooler days also.

Now this is alot better than it's predecessor, GREY FUNNEL or whatever the name of that stuff. This is a nice and vetiver type fragrance which develops very nicely on the wearer.

The strongest stuff to date to ever hit the market. I dont smell any orange, purple or anything else for that matter, when you want to offend, wear this.

personally i think it's ok. These stars and models are really stepping up their game in the fragrance industry. Namely that last one Brittany Spears put out for women is the most intoxicating thing iv'e ever smelled for a women, oh i'm sorry were talking about Paris Hilton for a man right?

definately a sunday go to meeting bottle, elegant indeed!!!!!!1

Man i didnt they could out-do thefirst paradox,but man this stuff is awesome!!!!!

old school, still some very good stuff. paul smith resembles this somewhat, but not as potent , or longlasting.

I really like this, mostly because i love VERA WANG and this smells absolutley like it, just a little more mellow,and light. MUST BE THE ANISEED.

Good stuff!!!!!!!!!! Starts out more grapefruity than apple then slightly smells like ISSEY TOWARDS THE END.

seeing cedar as a top note kind of had me leery,but i took a chance and im very pleased. masculine but not overpowering,cant really say it smells like anything i own and i have alot of bottles,but its goooood.

beutiful, wonderfully,put together i love it .

THIS IS SOME GOOD STUFF!!!!!! Smells alot like the original but a little more fresh green and some kind of exotic fruit mixed up in there . AWESOME !!!!!!!

This fragrance claims respect. Cant wear this with a jersey & jeans but something much more refined , like a nice suit or fresh coogi sweater 2 thumbs up.

They created a MONSTA with this one . AAAWWEEESSSOOOMMMME.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Daring and different, avoiding the norm of every other scent tending to smell the same.

Its unreal how the ingredients stated make up the composition which is angel .The longest lasting thing on the market since grey flannel ,but that was garbage,while this is heavenly.

I dont know what that blue jay guy is talkin about , this stuff is only a couple notches off grey flannel when it comes to staying power.I wore about 3 months ago and went back to wear the shirt and this stuff was singing like i just sprayed it .HAITI GOT THE STRONGEST GREEN , VETIVER THAT IS.

Saw it around for years on end , but never liked the cheesy looking bottle.GOT OVER that and im glad i did. Exellent cologne that has definately withstood the test of time. 2thumbs up !!!!!!!!!!!!!

its not my number 1 fragrance, but hey i just got to work and was told twice already that i smell good.

1881 is an underrated fragrance even in my fragrance arsenal. The first time i tried it ireally didnt give it an opporotunity to develop into the good fragrance that it really is.

Decent fragrance, soft subtle, then raises up another level. The atomizer is awesome,ive worn this now like 3 times and it looks like nothing is missing.

Man this is awesome.JOOP REFINED . Just what the connesoir ordered . Mellow and a headturner all in one.

Didn't agree with me at first. gave it another chance ,and was not dissapointed.Nice dress up cologne, not something you'd wear with a jogging suit.Sophisticated

Very distinct scent unlike everything out there now . You have the nerve to be different ,this is the one .

This is a very underrated cologne .Deserves all the praise given unto it.

It's not bad , but its not WOW either 6 1/2 out of 10

SUPER-CITRUSEY fresh ,my wife hates this stuff.I have the shower gel and all and i come to bed all crispy fresh and my wife tells me i cant even hug her smellin like that. Shot the mood & everything, smells OK 2 ME.

They created this a bottle too late. It was asking too much to counter the first joop with something softer ,more mellow, when you think of joop you cant get that bright purplish-pink bottle or smell out of your mind.OH by the way this is good also.

Man i started alot of dudes wearing cologne when this came out. Ive outgrown it now but every blue moon i might pull it out .Actually my father-in-law made me hate it for a minute because he bathed in it for years and now he's grown up also but this guy just got transferred where i work wear it about 3 times a week, so im done with it . WAS GOOD WHILE IT LASTED!!!!!

Hey ,this is some bad stuff, Imean in good way . Soft ,citrus ,floral ,smooth and mellow and its surprisingly long lasting .2 thumbs up.

Ruslan must have got a bad bottle because this stuff lasts toooooo long and taps out verrrrrrrry powdery

Man this one gets their attention, when you come in an area the people are sniffin talkin about (who smellin good)!!!

DA BOMB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A very pleasing mellow scent .

VERY interesting scent. Jacomo out did themselves with this one. UNEXPLAINABLE BUT AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!

Ruslan hit it on the head with the comparison,but it does have it's own identity. A spicy ,peppery ,dry bite in this baby.

Man this scent is garbage, i dont know how the fragrance notes blend to make this horrible scent , but it did. Smells like musty medicine,but i love everything else jacomo has put out.

Not an everyday fragrance, and more complex than i gave hugo credit for , A winner .

Man it doesnt cost that much for an investment such as this. I have a buddy who i was schooling on all the up to date stuff and he took me back to this.A HIDDEN GEM ! Dont let the ugly bottle fool you . MANY COMPLIMENTS.

Very different scent, but not in abad way ,when iwant to avoid the norm destiny is what i put on.

Very clean & fresh , much better than the TOMMY T FRAGRANCE.

Dont pay attention to those other negative comments . If you only have 4 or 5 bottles ,no this may not be the one for you , but for the connesuirs out there who are tired of everything starting to smell the same, this one's a winner.

Noble,elegant , and just downright gooood,this is some awesome smelling juice .Many compliments when i wear this one.

Nothing manly about this one. Sharp citrus opening and doesnt develop into anything else really .

fresh & crisp aquatic scent with lasting power. can even get away with wearing in cold weather.

Man this starts out smellin like some kind of liquor or something , and i dont even drink.But then it unfolds into something awesome and different at the same time.

very nice. Smells like jaipur by boucheron but so much cheaper, not in quality though.

gets the job done, especially at the price i got it for , smells like desire red.

It's an OK fragrance, not the best, but not the lowest puppy on the pole.

this scent is truly unique.Doesn't jump out yellin at you,but it gets the point across. My wife doesnt like it,and she's just about the only one who dont.

Very sophisticated,need A suit with this one to make it complete

Ya gotta get this, if you aint got it.!!!!!!!!1

this is some good stuff ! Warm & mellow but also captivating!

decent, dry woody similar to marc jacobs ,then unfolds into something else and vanishes shortly after that.

how can all of these different 'notes' compile the same outcome as casran? If I had known they smell this much alike, I could have spent my money on something I dont have yet.Dont get me wrong,it's awesome,but if you already have casran,you already have this! nuff said!

nothing to write home about,smells very similar to XS by paco rabonne

What's all the hype about to resurrect this particular scent. It's OK but thats it.I had some left over and I gave it to my 10yr.old son.When I started seeing all the hype I went back to see if I made A mistake in giving it away. I didn't. If they do relaunch,get rid of that cheesy bottle,and maybe A new name would'nt hurt. COLOGNE FORMERLY KNOWN AS ******##%&^^ or something.

You gotta give this guy some credit.What's his name anyway? J something has hung around and has 3 decent scents under his belt.ON/EL is A great one for the summer days/nights.

Yea it's ok,just ride with the bottle with you because you'll need to refreshen up every 10 min. or so.I am kind of dissapointed thinking A fragrance this old would have some staying power.It's all grey flannel's fault why I think like that.

Laguna is awesome!!!! NUFF-SAID.

I got beat on this one.I was in awe of the way the bottle looked on the web pages,and that's what sold me.Smells just like gucci RUSH,which was another disapointment also.All that shows up in this scent is wood-wood-wood.Maybe it's for termites.

I had to get this one because of the bottle.It starts off smelling like that hard candy people put out at christmas,you know-all the different colors and shapes,but they all taste the same.Then it actually has A little depth after the initial reaction.

Thumbs up and down. great scent,for every bit of the 15minutes it lasts.RIDE with it so you can freshen up every few minutes.

HEY,where did you guys get that bottle from.I ordered this and my bottle is A see through glass with A red top.DECENT scent never the less. SPICY!!

lancome dropped A bomb with miracle man. THIS JUICE IS AWESOME!!! This is one of my sunday-GO-TO-meeting colognes!

Rochas is making some noise with the last couple of scents these guys have have put on the market.I bought aquaman just because I liked the way the bottle looked.The fragrance is more than I expected,so BANGO!!

H.M.is one of the greatest of all time.All of the scents that I have(which is over an 150)H.M.continues to resurface up to the top of my list!!!!!

A decent fragrance which puts me in the mindframe of drakkar noir but this has more depth than drakkar.

You can find this scent at gendarme.com,at A very nice price.I just received my bottle and I was kind of salty because it was A splash cologne.Other than that it's some nice smelling stuff which I will not wear until I buy A sprayer and transfer it.

I took A chance on this one,having never heard of this guy or smelling this anywhere.BANGO this one's A winner.Smells A tad bit LeMale-ish but sweeter,and I have not found any one who doesn't like that!

Golfer,NO-----Cologne connoisseur,YES.I don't no the guy,but this fragrance makes him alright with me.

MAN.I didn't think dunhill would be able to come anywhere in the ballpark after desire,but D.blue is all that and some.AWESOME runner-up which is rarely done in the cologne industry.

This cologne went where others are still trying to go.Even though it's A few years old,when I make my rounds back to wearing this,DA BOMB! CLASSIC.

Familiar yet different.A headturner indeed.

This is the one.The guy who even makes this fragrance is cool.I called to check on my order,and Topper answers the phone.(thats the guy who invented the scent). AWESOME,LONGLASTING,SUPERFRESH!!!

very nice & mellow fougere scent, that has A nice powdery drydown. longlasting also.good stuff.

Not only does this guy know rap,he then jumps into fashion and has A decent cologne to wear with those blue jeans.Very crisp/fresh scent. Something different in my arsenal.

One of the baddest bottles/One of the baddest scents to match.I own well over 100 bottles and there's not one that even remotely smells like UV! Unexplainable but awesome!

If you've just started wearing colognes,this one is not for you.This fragrance is for A more diverse set of nostrils.It's like an aromotherapy to my senses and I feel great when I wear this one.

Don't let the name fool you. This cologne is definitely A sleeper. Very well put together and has an awesome drydown. Many compliments with this one. My wife even asked 'what's that?'! Thats when I know I'm smelling good.

fresh fougre/invgorating scent.Lots of compliments.

I dont know whats wrong with my nose regarding this fragrance,but when it finally dries down all i smell is PLAY-DO!
