| | Castaña by Cloon Keen AtelierTop Notes: Red Pepper, Cardamom and Bergamot 25th November, 2011. |
| | Boss Orange Man by Hugo BossI agree with all the negative comments, this is disgusting synthetic, horrendous, revolting, repellent, repulsive, nauseating crap, I can’t believe is for sale!!! Stay away for your own safety. 24th March, 2011. |
| | Guerlain Homme by GuerlainAll what I smell is Neroli,Neroli,Neroli.... 15th March, 2011. |
| | Memoir Man by AmouageMemoir Man is a reformulated version of Arpège by Lanvin but washed down. This is boring and lineal, no worth the money. 5th November, 2010. |
| | Old Spice by Procter & GambleThe smells of seduction in a Barber’s shop. 8th October, 2010. |
| | Divine by DivineI ‘ve been using Bleu from a perfumer not listed here in Basenotes for many years without knowing Divine perfume smells exactly the same. Divine perfume is a Floral Poudré: opens with Heliotrope, Star anise and carnation and from there settles down into a warm Lavender,Tonka ,vanilla.I can’t see the comparison with Chloe or Ysatis. 7th October, 2010. |
| | Sa Majesté la Rose by Serge Lutens Les Salons du Palais Royal ShiseidoRose is a rose is a rose is a rose. Is this a 21st Century interpretation of a rose scent? This is an interpretation of a Bathroom Spray Toilet Deodorizer. Smells like a rose with an aquatic accord. I am missing here the surroundings of the rose, the green leaves, the earth, the sky; roses are for passion, for lustful nights, for 3somes;roses are toxic, red blood, pink moon, white satin and black Sabbath; roses are for champagne with strawberries. Thumbs down. This is just a repetition of a repetition of a repetition… 6th October, 2010. |
| | Le Mâle by Jean Paul GaultierSmells like glass cleaner and the bottle design is like G.I. Joe with arms and legs amputated in a tomato can. And the new Le Male Terrible is a copy of Versace's The Dreamer. 19th September, 2010. |
| | Kiehl's Original Musk by Kiehl'sRepulsively synthetic and tediously lineal. This is shameless interpretation of dark musk. If you already know the smell of real dark Indian Musk oil then you know what I am talking about. Don’t waste your money and buy the real stuff. 6th September, 2010. |
| | L'Or de Torrente by TorrenteThe opening reminds me Un Jardin sur le Nil by Hermès and the dry down is very alike L'occitane Honey & Lemon bor more floral. 20th August, 2010. |
| | Kouros by Yves Saint LaurentMasculine,seductive and evocative. 26th July, 2010. |
| | Orange Star by TauerOrange star smells like Karma by Lush with Tonka bean, that’s all. 10th July, 2010. |
| | Daim Blond by Serge Lutens Les Salons du Palais Royal ShiseidoNice suede but too lineal.Nice when layered with Esencia de Loewe or with any chypre. 2nd July, 2010. |
| | Jazz by Yves Saint LaurentMasterpiece and one of my first loves,Elengant and sensual ,a must for any parfum lover. I love the old plastic bottle in dark blue and white. I have still a bottle from 1995 and smells as good as the first day. 2nd July, 2010. |
| | Balenciaga Paris by BalenciagaI don't understand the bad reviews about Balenciaga's Paris.I am just back from sampling a dozen women perfumes for Mother's day and B.P. was the most exquisite and original of all of them; wonderful green citrus herbal opening and settles down in a Chypre Violet where I smell also rose, mimosa, and orris. It feels so elegant and balance that I will eventually buy it for myself as a summer fragrance. The parking and perfume bottle are elegant and well designed. I see some similarities with Miss Dior. 11th May, 2010. |
| | Yohji Homme by Yohji YamamotoNot my cup of tea 29th April, 2010. (Last Edited: 17th January, 2011.) |
| | Lavanda Inglesa by GalActually this is still in production an easily to find in many websites specialized in Barber products. Don’t be rip off on Ebay. This is a very fresh herbal Lavender cologne, nice splash in the morning or just to perfume your handkerchief, pillow or lingerie. Only worth if you are Spanish searching for childhood memories. 29th March, 2010. |
| | Honey & Lemon by L'OccitaneExquisite, like everything made by L’Occitane. 26th March, 2010. |
| | Varon Dandy by PareraCreated in 1912 by Catalan perfumer Joan Parera and reformulated in 1916. 24th March, 2010. |
| | Sol / Sun by Ramon MolvizarPyramid 22nd March, 2010. |
| | Le Baiser du Dragon by CartierThis is another masterpiece from Spanish perfumer Alberto Morillas and for some reason he is not credited as the perfumer of this fragance. It feels very evocative, nostalgic and complex. I feel like being in the Lantern Festival in Taiwan in an spiritual aura of love ascending in the darkest night to the sky. 20th March, 2010. |
| | Halston Z-14 by HalstonI really wanted to like this but I think honestly this is a terrible mess from the beginning to the end. I find hard to imagine Halston did not modified the formula after. The opening is an herbal blast of alcohol and the dry down is fruit rouges labdanum and cinnamon but it feels there is too much of everything in there. I get headache every time I use it. Jack Daniels with Fanta Lemon,that's all. 20th March, 2010. |
| | Halston Z by HalstonOne of the worse fragrances ever made; green, soggy and soapy that’s all, made with bad ingredients and no imagination to create something simple but elegant. Your floor cleaner like AJAX smells a thousand times better. 20th March, 2010. |
| | Agua Brava by Antonio PuigA fresh masculine cologne, herbaceous, woody, with a spicy sexy dry down, so well balance and very Mediterranean, a truly 60’s classic and one of the few fragrances who tested the pass of time .How many fragrances made in 68 are still in production?. Also masterfully designed by Spanish industrial designer, lecturer and writer André Ricard . 20th March, 2010. |
| | Omnia by BulgariThis is another great creation from Spanish perfumer Alberto Morillas. Sweet ,citrus and floral, very nice. 20th March, 2010. |
| | Amber & Lavender by Jo MaloneA cloned version of Loewe's Esencia de Loewe. 14th March, 2010. |
| | Carthusia Uomo by CarthusiaOne of the best fragrances ever made, a truly masterpiece. Carthusia Uomo is elegant, luxurious and distinctive. 27th January, 2010. |
| | Aegean by Neil Morris FragrancesNeil Morris introduces this fragrance saying: "I have not yet been to Greece but I have a irresistible desire to visit". Price: 2 oz for $ 95. For the price he is selling his products he could at least visit Greece and truly created a fragrance inspire in the Greek Islands. 19th January, 2010. |
| | parfums*PARFUMS Series 6 Synthetic: Tar by Comme des GarçonsLife is so paradoxical. When you think asphalt causes cancer and people buys a fragrance emulating that synthetic smell. Surrealistic! But I have to say I love it, Series 6 Synthetic is strong, pungent, and rubbery with a timeless dry down that reminds me a dark shampoo. It should be renamed as Civilization or Asphalt Jungle. 16th January, 2010. |
| | Palazzo by FendiIt reminds me a scent from Des Filles á la Vanille called J'ai rendez vous avec l'amour. It opens like a bonbon with mimosa and anis notes and settles down with freesia flowers, honey and orange. The freesia is quite dominant and pungent in the dry down. Very feminine fragrance, use with moderation. 12nd December, 2009. |
