Fragrance Reviews by nolessoccer17

Definitely a cologne for older men. The initial blast is very strong with the many top notes contained, which is deceiving, because the fragrance is really very light, sticking close to the body. I was disappointed at the lasting power, on my skin, about 5hours maximum. Overall, I do like the fragrance myself, but I feel like I might give it to my father; somehow, it will fit him better than myself. My girlfriend liked Gigli the least out of my scent collection.

The Tangerine leaves come through the most to my nose, which kind of put me off from this fragrance. Women liked this one, but they had to be really close, almost in a friendly way to smell it. Too feminine a scent for my liking, and it wasn't especially long lasting on my skin - 5hours maybe. I wouldn't recommend it as an everyday type of scent, but it's nice to have in your collection, because ladies leaving your bed in the morning can easily get away with using it, and many of them will.

Very sweet, and amazingly strong. two sprays can almost overdue it with this one. Basically, you can't wear this cologne without getting noticed by everybody close to you. I like to be noticed, but quietly - i gave this bottle to my 16yr. old brother, and he loves it, and gets good results.
I wish i could like this fragrance more, because the reactions i've always gotten from women were similar in that they all involved some kind of sexual theme. ladies love it, but use in moderation please - or the whole room will smell you.

I don't quite understand it - blv isn't one of my colognes i'd call signature, but i absolutely love the smell of it on my skin. the problem i have with it is that unless you really put too much on; the cologne sits so closely to your skin that people must be very close to pick it up.
if only it didn't just sit on my skin - otherwise, it's very long lasting 10hours on my skin easily. very pleasant scent, and it's appropriate for any occasion. personally, i love it as a scent for the office.

stays close to the skin, the angelica flowers come through most to me, but my girlfriend gets the pepper more so. very nice fragrance to wear for basically any occasion, and women absolutely love it from the reactions i've gotten so far. it's also nice that it's readily available on ebay, and hard to find in many popular stores, with most stocking the au fraiche. It's one of my favorite fragrances, most definitely a mainstay in my wardrobe.

Of all the aquatics I've tried, this is by far my favorite, and the most unique. I was raised on a beach, and have always been known as a bit of a beach bum - this fragrance reminds me instantly of a stiff, wet, ocean breeze. Allows me to smell like a beach bum with class all the time. Get many compliments from the ladies, but it's nowhere near as popular with them as my Gucci Envy or Givenchy Rouge.
