Fragrance Reviews by ikkitosennomusha

Eau D'Orange Vert is pure class in a bottle. The lemon and mandarin uplifts the spirit. I tend to bypass the mandarin and papaya and go straight to the mint and woods. The mint and woods is a deep green smell that is tantalizing and audacious! It has repsectable longevity on me. I highly recommend without hesitation! It is very masculine.

This is pure garbage. It has the citrus of Bvlgari BLV in the top notes and dries down to something similar to old spice. This does absolutely nothing for me and is a shame from the house that makes the wonderful aramis our homme and JHL.

The vetiver note is the frreshest vetiver I have experienced and defines the term superb! However, tonka is the worst note to ride tandem with the high quality vetiver. The tonka drowns out the vetiver and makes it smell like cheap garbage found in old lady perfumes. I want to give it a thumbs down for ruining the composition with tonka, nontheless, I award a neutral insofar as the characther of the vetiver.

I love this scent for anytime anywhere. As always, it is a Creed so the quality is there. My only concern is that the pine reminds me of the mint in my selection verte and I am wondering if I can justify owning both. I think so because I love them both. Who know, one might can layer the fragrances!

I agree that it is an old world harmony of citrus blends. It is hard for me at this point to detect a particular note. Nonetheless, it is well crafted. I have a sample vial I am still working on. I like it so I gave it a thumbs up but more testing is needed to determine if it is right for me.

If you want a leather scent, this is perhaps the best there is. It is pure unadulterated leather so fresh that only Creed does it best. The mandarin opens up in the topnotes as the buttery leather shines through. It is like no other leather I have smelled and exemplifies the best quality and craftmanship. I also love the history of the fragrance. I love the house of Creed and as this happens to be the first creation which happens to smell wonderful, it is a must own!

I award a neutral thumb because I used to love and wear this back in the late 80s in junior high and it worked for me then. Now days, I find it ok as it brings fond memories but there are far better choices available on the market. Also, I cannot stand that cheap, plastic cap. I think they need to redesign the bottle at least.

Like some, I place sentimental value on it as it brings back fond memories from the late 90s. I have been considering another bottle just to relish in those carefree days when anything could have been posilbe. The trick is to spray conservatively which means only 1-2 sprays tops or it will beceome headachy.

I am undecided, I want to hate it for the fact that it is a GIT clone but I love it because it does smell good and is very smooth. GIT has superior sillage and quality and chez bond has sillage and lasting power also. If I had to pick between the two I would go for GIT sue to it's natural edge as chez ond seems a tad more synthetic but who knows, I might just be crazy enough to own both although it is not justified. I think GIT is worth the price but I question CB so, since they are in relative price range, go for GIT.

I love this! It is a striking resemblence to the scent of one of my all time favorite shampoo that I can no longer find.....Ivory. Yes, ivory shampoo used to be found in wal-mart and smelled so clean and soft. Datura Noir smells exactly the same and if I can ever think a man can wear this, I might get it for myself to relive that magical aura!

I think this is Davidoff's finest! It is cool, crisp, and still manages to get alot of attention from the ladies. It smells every bit as good and modern now as it did then. A must have in anyone's collection.

I liked it at first but now I am starting to feel that the "candy" sweet accord in the tops is sickening and cloying. I will have to do more testing.

It seems fresh at first but there is a note in the drydown that makes me ill.

Thunbs way up here! I love the thyme and leather in the drydown. It is as clean as a pure, white bar of soap and very long lasting. I favor this on certain days to my creeds!

This smells very similar to Gendarme for men. Having said that and to let you know that I love Gendarme, I highly recommend to any lady without hesitation.

This is very fresh and exhilerating for women. It is the perfect match to the Clean Men and I recommend it to any lady who wants to smell clean all over!

I think the ruby red grapefruit mixed with lime, patchouly, and musk makes for a truely out-of-the-shower fresh experience and is quiute comforting for bedtime use.

This is definately a classic and a well known fragrance around the world. It has an unmistakable character that is easy to recognize. I will restock up on this one day in the next year or two. It still stands to be unique and not cloned.

This is a winner for Gucci. It is pure, modern class. I love the "burnt wood from a camp fire" smell! Also, this has my vote for the best bottle ever made; it is so heavy and fun to use! The juice is potent so 1-2 sprays will do.

A good one by Halston that is probably best suited for winter. It has a distinct character.

My first impression was that it was a clone of Chrome by Azzaro. I asked a lady what she thought of it and she said it smelled like a scented tampon!

This has to be my fav D&G fragrance and one of my fav female fragrances of all time. It is absolutely stunning on a female. I wouldn't consider wearing it my self but I adore the moments when I catch a whiff of it.

The lavender and leather is ok but the overall feel is very animalistic and doesen't suit me.

Lemmon on top of fig and thyme. I like the drydown ok but the lemmon in the mix makes the overall fragrance sickening. I also cannot stand tonka beans.

Lemmon on top of tobacco. Simply rancid! I am one of those who cannot stand this putrid concoction.

I is not a bad fragrance but probably not one I will purchase anytime soon. I need to try the original to better make a decision by contrast.

I did not like this at all. It was sickly sweet. I am not a mango fan in fragrances. There was no need in this creation. Even worse, I hate papaya in fragrances as well.

This is my fav Hermes by far! It is so unique and fresh. I love that fig note in the center of mint. Overall, this fragrance is very green, fresh, and exciting!

I love it! It is the best scent to convey appeal. It is still a trend-setter. The sillage of the floral, leathery esscense leaves a trail unmistakeable in todays market of clones. It is special to me as it provokes fond memories. A must have!

This is an instant classic! RG and Jazz are my two absolute favorites from this house and I cannot be forced to pick the better. Rive Gauche is the epitomy of mystery, class, and sexiness. The star anise gives it that deep, dark character reminescent of those 80's powerhouse fragrances. In aa world of whispy, arid fragrances, this new modern classic is refreshing and a winner indeed!

My Favorite vetiver is Creed 1948. This FM VE would be my third perhaps. It is a little bit raunchy for my liking but overal not a bad fragrance. Although this will most likely not get any wear from me, I will still give it a thumbs up.

I was left feeling indifferent about this one. I did not love it and did not hate it. I got a spicy amber scent with a hint of musk. Thats about it. Perhaps I missed something and more testing is needed but I was not moved enough to propagate another testing. I will not own this.

This is my favorite JC Ellena creation. It starts out kinda airy and soapy fresh and that subtle mineralic hint reminescent of a wet stone covered in moss diffuses through to yeild a brillant masterpiece!

This smells fabulous! This is one out of only two that I like from the chanel line. It is refined and gentleman-like but can also be comforting and embrace confidence and sophistication.

I give a neutral decision thus far because retesting is needed. It use to induce headache on me. Recently, I smelled it on a gentleman and I asked what his fragrance was, becuase it smelled good and green. He said it was eternity. I was stunned. So, at my next trip to the mall, I will be testing this!

I love this and is my fav Armani scent. I hope it stays in production forever! Mania excites me as much as my beloved Green Irish Tween does and I think I might even start to lean towrads this on certain days! WOW! Longevity is superb. One spray lasts all day one me. Huge thumbs up to Mr. Armani for t his one!

I personally love this although thus far I have only smelled it once on a card. The cocoa is not overdone and is merely peeking aroung the corner at the iris, leather, and woods. It is the perfect fragrance for those who do not like gourmnads like myself because as I said, the cocoa is hardly noticeable but just enough to add some sexiness. The slight powder note is not overdone either. Overall, the fragrance is classy, elegant, and comforting. I think I will order some today.

This is what Eau D'Orange Vert wants to be! I don't like the papaya note in the Hermes. This is very smooth and well done. Its like the name suggests, it is tangerine and green all the way! Give it a try and you will be amazed!

"A harmony of ferns, lavender, geranium, patchouli and oakmoss on a base of sea freshness and cool musk."

There is something very familiar about this fragrance. The sea freshness exudes throught the longevity. It is the best fragrance under the marine category that I have ever sampled!

This is truely a special fragrance. The icy cool mint refreshes the skin and senses leaving you invgorated and sparkling. The green character gives vibrant imaginations of catching the juice off of melting mint icecycles in a flacon. The addition of pepper makes the masterpiece masculing and refreshing, not sweet. This is a must own and an excellent to treat yourself to a work of genius! I love it!

This is one of the beautiful, intoxicating fragrances from Creed that I am privileged to own. The seductive and sparkling green tea and black currants are smooth and enchanting. While the fragrances is tempermental and trial and error may be necessary to find a good batch, it is worth the effort for this magnificent scent. This is one of the 3 Creeds that I continually recieve compliments while wearing. My bottle lasts as long as I want it to. 1 spray will last me up to 12 hours!

I wanted to like this one and the mint gives a fresh, green character. However, the vanilla musk in the drydown gives me a headache.

This used to be my staple fresh scent to work out in and have fun. It is a clean, fruity scent that doesn't have any clones. The only thing that comes close is the original Zirh. However, I like this better. It is a shame the popularty has diminished. I will always think of this fragrance with fondness although I have long since used my bottle. I don't plan on restocking my drobe with this at the moment but for anyone who wants to be clean and not offend, this might be for you.

Cyprus Musc is for one who wants to exude individual style, confidence, and intellect. The juice is masculine and conveys a forst atmosphere from the mint and cyprus that minigles. If you like the way the great outdoors smell as you stand in a forest looking out onto a lake with mountains in the background, you will love Cyprus Musc!

Thumbs way up here! This is the most magical and intoxicating fragrance I have the priviledge to own. The neroli draws rich depth from the top citrus notes to the woody character to the basenotes as the neroli lasts througout. I cannot give this fragrance enough praise. It is very seductive and breath-taking. This is the one fragrance that I wished I could pour from my showerhead!

This has to be the best Patchouly fragrance I have ever sampled! Patchouly Patch manages to take that harsh biiter edge off and make it fresh and quite wearable. For those of you who has wanted to enjoy masculine patchouly but could never wear it due to the harshness, patchouly patch could just be for you. I recommend checking this out as it is on my "quick to order" list!

Of those produced by designers, I really like this one as it is clean, fresh, and bubbly. It is kind of fruity along the lines of Ceruti Image. Since I have worn Image in the past, it could be time to change to this as my good 'ole fresh standby. This can be owrn every day and work well in the gym/fitness arenas to stay clean smelling. Give it a go, I think I will.

A classic born. Original Vetiver by Creed starts out with a green citrus blend reminescent of TM Colonge but with an herbal refinement and pure quality ingredients which has become stample of the Creed house that has won the world over. The scent dries into a deeper green that exudes freshness and well being. Some may scrutinize the longevity of this fragrance and I will say if has plenty of staying power although its not the best and not the worst regarding this issue. 2 squirts seems to deliver the magical punch of this olfactive jem. This is a MUST BUY in any serious connessieur of orgasmic juice!

A definite winner for the house of Kenzo! This is the only scent I like in the Kenzo line. This cool, olfactive gem is a must if you want to smell great. The anise is well done in the top notes providing just a hint. The ambered-woody base is excellent and invigorating. This is on my to buy list!
