| | Brooksfield Men by BrooksfieldA simple, light, fresh and clean fragrance from the early 90's. Lasted pretty long on me. Otherwise, not much of note. 22nd January, 2012. |
| | Gilded Lily by InekeOh goody, a lily fragrance. Reminds me of Donna Karan's Gold. Yeah very nice lily, that expected pepperiness of other lily fragrances. Yup. *nods* 16th January, 2012. |
| | Black Sun Sport by Salvador DaliIt's clear and clean. A light greenish, herbal middle and a musky base. Nice and fresh. 3rd January, 2012. |
| | Bang by Marc JacobsPepper, pepper, pepper! And cedarwoods. (Actually a molecule called Iso E Super) And it's not overly boisterous about the whole thing either. 3rd January, 2012. |
| | Habit Rouge Sport by GuerlainA nice, light, sweet leather and vanilla. Also rose. It has some similarities to its namesake but it really is a scent of its own. 3rd January, 2012. |
| | Gap Blue No. 655 Him by GapInteresting mix of greasy woods and grounded herbs to make an aquatic scent to smell like dirt and ozone. 3rd January, 2012. |
| | Antaeus Sport by ChanelSimply put, a lighter, smoother version of the wonderful Antaeus. Less herbal and more woodsy with a different sandalwood note. Also of note, towards the end, Antaeus Sport smells a lot like Versailles pour Homme by Jean Desprez's styrax. 2nd January, 2012. |
| | Trussardi Inside Man by TrussardiA green tobacco accord is the crux of the entire fragrance. The opening is quite sharp (bergamot and yuzu I assume) but tit fades into a very pleasant tobacco and coffee accord over a light woods. Not sweet at all. Average longevity and sillage; a couple of sprays is all you need. I like it in the fact that it is not another clean and fresh scent. 2nd January, 2012. |
| | Custo Man by Custo BarcelonaThe nose behind this really knows how to make good sweet scents without them being too powerful. 30th December, 2011. |
| | Boss Number One by Hugo BossThis is a classic fougere structure with a dab of honey. Hugo Boss does quite a few "fresh, fruity, clean" scents for young men but it savvy enough to keep this classic on the market. The oakmoss and musk really hits you at first but the honey and lavender take over for a sweet and sharp accord until the oakmoss comes back. This is a "light" powerhouse-style fragrance. 27th December, 2011. |
| | Burberry Sport for Men by BurberryWith a blast of grapefruit, Burberry Sport opens with a tenacious citrus accord that opens your eyes. Dries down into a ginger and cedarwoods accord. Great warm weather cologne. 27th December, 2011. |
| | Bugatti Homme by Etorre BugattiA sweet ambery, woodsy and slightly fresh scent. Starts off sweet and has notes of tobacco and a faint dark roast coffee. The tobacco is persistent throughout and its longevity is pretty good. I like it. 24th December, 2011. |
| | Réminiscence Homme by Réminiscenceopening ins Old Spice and the drydown is Old Spice with vanilla. Very linear scent but smells OK... if you like Old Spice. 21st December, 2011. |
| | Burberry Sport Ice for Men by BurberryFresh and clean and smells a hell of a lot like the infamous Aqua di Gio (fresh, clean smelling laundry) but much more woodsier. I quite like it but it's a "pick-me up" kind of scent, not really a daily wear. 20th December, 2011. |
| | Terre d'Hermès Parfum by HermèsHighly more enjoyable than the edt. It's got a smokey essence to it that the edt does not have. Also of difference is the "orange peel" note is radically changed to be smoother and not so sharp. Go easy since it's quite strong to begin with. I did not like the original but quite like the parfum. 20th December, 2011. |
| | Bleu de Chanel by ChanelA heavy, aquatic woods with a HUGE grapefruit and pepper opening. Good longevity on me especially with the sandalwood base. Stay classy, Chanel. 15th December, 2011. |
| | Premium for Men by Phat FarmWow. This is actually pretty good... for a fresh scent. It's a little spicy and a little effervescent but very effective in being a clean fresh scent amongst all the others of its kind out there. It even has a very slight hint of floral. 13rd December, 2011. |
| | High Line by Bond No. 9Hello ladies! I'm a bottle of sweet green aquatic floral shampoo. Care to purchase me? Oh. Oh my no! That's a dollar bill, you'll need A HUNDRED TIME MORE THAN THAT! Whoa hey wait! Where are you going? Why are you walking over to Bath and Body Works? They don't got nothing like me over there. Ah, I'm so lonely. 13rd December, 2011. |
| | The One Gentleman by Dolce & GabbanaA more subtle version. Gentleman turns down the vanilla a bit and lets some herbs and pepper take over the overall shape of the fragrance. I liken this to Burberry Brit but not as powdery or as strong. 13rd December, 2011. |
| | Star USA by John VarvatosA spicy, fresh vetiver. Starts off brazen with spices (notably ginger and pepper) with a bit of fruitiness. Mellows down into a vetiver with light spices and a bit of a bittersweet note. Then the vetiver loses all its scent and you are left with a transparent spicy accord that's... soapy. 11th December, 2011. |
| | Blue Seduction for Men by Antonio BanderasNot bad, not great. Kinda creamy and sweet with a woodsy freshness to it. To bad it's fleeting. Similarities to Versace Eau Fraiche are pretty close. Eau Fraiche stays with you longer but is a little weaker and cleaner, not as creamy. Blue Seduction is just a touch stronger in projection and sweeter. 15th October, 2011. |
| | Solo Loewe by LoeweThis is utterly boring. The only thing I remember about wearing this fragrance was a brief stint of citric herbs on top and a rather transparent musky amber on the bottom. It's easy to wear, I'll give it that much but I desire a bit more conversation with my fragrance than a short "hello". 28th September, 2011. |
| | Adidas Fair Play by AdidasNope. 12nd September, 2011. |
| | Paper & Cotton No. 17 by Tokyo MilkI don't know what's making me enjoy this scent. It's like green notes (herbals) meets dark green (MOSS) with a light wood... and it's too perfect of a name. Admittedly, if I didn't know what the name was I wouldn't be so astounded.... So here's my more terse review: It's very, very airy to me. Like laundry hanging out on a line fresh out of the washing bin; still with soap stuck on the fibers. 27th August, 2011. |
| | Gucci by Gucci Sport Pour Homme by GucciSmells good, actually. Just doesn't wow me like previous scents by Gucci. Not really liking their recent direction. 26th August, 2011. |
| | Domain by Mary KayEh, its okay. It is rather weak. Wait, no, it is extremely weak. And terrible. A transparent woodsy and soapy scent. In fact, it reminds me of another "just because we need a fragrance in our line up" scent from GH Bass (from Van Heusen). I would never give this as a gift even if it was $5 a bottle. One would have better chances with an Avon product. 15th August, 2011. |
| | Molinard Homme I by MolinardStarts of really nice with a green woodsy feel and a light oakmoss and light vetiver base. However, it is very boring and fleeting. Not amazing or even nice enough to wear. 19th July, 2011. |
| | Molinard Homme II by MolinardSweet yet very weak. A musky kind of sweet/ Almost doesn't even register even in the heat. I'd go with Body Kouros or something else even. 11th July, 2011. |
| | L'Essence de Cerutti by CerrutiA spicy, tangy top starts things off. As usual that stuff fades quick however the spice still takes hold into the heart notes which is mixed with leather and woods and is rounded off at the bottom with a musky base. It's light, yet has a deep feel to it, almost sensual. I really like it. 11th July, 2011. |
| | Wild Aoud by MontaleAoud based scents normally ever grab my attention or gets praise but this stuff is certainly approachable. Straying away from the rosy death I usually receive from most aouds (which I don't like), I get more of a vibrant woodsy, absinthe fizziness with a slightly fruity touch. I can't ignore the fact that almost every scent Montale makes is aoud aoud aoud oaud aoud oaudoudaoudd agh jeez just stop with them already! Anyways, a fairly decent fragrance. 7th May, 2011. |
