| | Tommy 10 by Tommy HilfigerSmells different from the original. No apple pie here, not even a hint on an apple sweetness. It's fresher, more somber affair, somewhat transparent - in a Tommy T fashion - and goes on forever. I like new one better. 30th October, 2006. |
| | Mugler Cologne by Thierry MuglerSmells very much like good old 4711 on me, but with a modern twist - which is not bad at all! 21st July, 2003. |
| | Java for Men by Franck OliverThe concept was to create the scent of some distant exotic islands, hence the name. OK, let's see - top: grapefruit, orange, lemon, nutmeg, wormwood. Heart: geranium, insence, lavender oil, cedar nuts. The base: patchouli, musk, vanilla. 27th December, 2002. |
| | Odeur 53 by Comme des GarçonsIt smells of nothing. Pure air. Great for mixing with heavier fragrances - it gives your old favorites an unexpected twist. 27th December, 2002. |
| | Gillette Pacific Light by Gillette SeriesFresh and light scent with citrus top notes, herbaceous and floral heart and mossy base. Pacific Light was created by an advanced technology called "head space analysis" which is widely used today and allows perfumers to extract the aroma of a flower or plant while it is a living organism. 27th December, 2002. |
| | Gillette Cool Wave by Gillette SeriesFresh chypre with citrus top notes and woody-mossy base. Cool, clean and masculine. I often come across people who wear Cool Wave or something like that. 27th December, 2002. |
| | cK one "Red Hot Edition" by Calvin KleinSmells just a tad more fruity than original one to my nose. 27th December, 2002. |
| | Wings for Men by WingsFloral oriental along the lines of Eternity, but with intriguing note that remind me wild berries. And stays forever! 26th December, 2002. |
| | VIP for Men by Giorgio Beverly HillsMossy, musky floral chypre. Not bad at all, but quite rare nowadays. 26th December, 2002. |
| | Denim by DenimI remember this scent from the 80-s when it was still around - a somewhat leathery chypre with citrus opening notes, flowery heart and musky-leather drydown. It would be interesting to come across the bottle again. 26th December, 2002. |
| | Michael for Men by Michael KorsThis scent is like Rocabar gone hippy. Imagine a person in his young Aquarius days, long hair, smile, beads, spliff and The Byrds - it's Michael, then the very same guy in 90-s, formal suit, older, wiser, good credit history, house, cognac and opera - you get the Rocabar. 25th December, 2002. |
| | Duc de Vervins by HoubigantDistinguished and sophisticated! The woodsy notes are interwoven with oak moss and lavender, then blended with oriental flowery-musky accord. Elegant. Long-lasting. 25th December, 2002. |
| | Aigner pour Homme by Etienne AignerGreat stuff. Very classic-smelling. Notes are Japanese yuzu, grapefruit, nutmeg, pepper, sandalwood, cedar, leather, musk. Cool bottle too - it doesn't have a top cap, you just turn the spray to the left and open the release, and the spray itself has a leather button on top that's always pleasant to touch. 25th December, 2002. |
| | Fire & Ice for Men by RevlonFresh and spicy floral oriental fragrance with notes of osmanthus, tangerine flowers, lavender and amber. Powdery drydown. Girls love it! 24th December, 2002. |
| | Imperial Jade Emperor by Agatha BrownLight oriental with hints of florals is all I can recall about this fragrance that I encounter once in a while. The bottle is made of frosted grass, and the colour of juice is indeed reminds of jade - it's pale green. 21st December, 2002. |
| | Carlo Corinto Classic by Carlo CorintoCorinto Pour Homme is a fresh, woody, mossy, lavender cologne. A bit too 'Eighties' overall. 21st December, 2002. |
| | Rockford by AtkinsonsSubtle and inviting fragrance with warm and masculine notes 21st December, 2002. |
| | Musgo Real by Claus & SchwederMusgo Real men's soaps have been hand made and stamped in Portugal since 1887. Developed for the aristocracy, they are a lasting tradition from the century-old Claus & Schweder company. Musgo Real Concentrated Cologne is the essence of the Musgo Real scent. Blended with spice and woodland tones of patchouli and vetiver and the floral notes of lavender and geranium, this light, clean and sporty scent smells classic, sophisticated and masculine. 21st December, 2002. |
| | Les Copains Le Bleu by Les CopainsA combinartion of of mint, grapefruit and apple forms the top notes, the heart is composed of sage and cinnamon, which leads to a base of patchouli and sandalwood. Of three Les Copains scents that I know - Trend, Pour Homme and Bleu I like the last one the best. 21st December, 2002. |
| | Gerani pour Homme by GeraniInteresting scent, modern but distinctly Mediterranean in flavour with its citrus and sea salt notes with hint of spices. The heart is flowery with notes of cyclamen, violet, jasmine and geranium. The base is a blend of amber, woods and mosses. 21st December, 2002. |
| | Chester & Peck by Carlo CorintoSporty, refreshing, a bit fruity fragrance - a blend of green tea, pineapple, amber and jasmine. Good for office, excellent to wear in summer. Classic-looking bottle too. 21st December, 2002. |
| | Best Company by Best CompanySporty, fresh and young fragrance, supposedly consisting entirely of original American ingredients - Kansas water mint, Carribean lime, Central America geranium and Virginia juniper among others. 21st December, 2002. |
| | Façonnable Homme by FaçonnableI'm a big fan of original Faconnable, so I was curious about this one. Well, I tried it yesterday, and I must say it was a minot letdown. It starts off very fresh, airy, with green/grass/leaves accord, and stays pretty much like that till it fades out, beginning more dry and bitter on the drydown. The scent is simple and not that interesting, the price was high, the bottle is not the most convenient around - you have to turn the wheel that's under the spray to the right, and then press the spray as hard as you can in order to release the juice. I'll give it another try sometime that's for sure, but at the moment the verdict is negative. 18th December, 2002. |
| | Royal Eroica by KaneboHeavy chypre with notes of leather and tobacco. Serious stuff. Long gone, and probably impossible to find even in Japan. 17th December, 2002. |
| | Ferrari Cologne Water (Yellow) by FerrariLight, easy-going, casual citrus-fruity fragrance. Nice, but I don't keep friendship with Ferraris for some reason. Wrong chemistry I guess. 17th December, 2002. |
| | Ferrari (Red) by FerrariNice bottle, excellent packaging, but there's something about the Red that keeps me off brom buying it. Too piney-woody? Too loud? Weird evolution on my skin? I don't know. 17th December, 2002. |
| | Dune pour Homme by Christian DiorI don't wear it anymore since my wife asked me very politely one day to stop using it. Well, no big deal since I wasn't that mad about it from day one. 17th December, 2002. |
| | Déclaration by CartierA huge hit among the ladies, no doubt about it. I like it too, but IMHO, Yang by Jacques Fath, which is basically the same type of a scent, beats good old Declaration hands down. 17th December, 2002. |
| | cK be by Calvin KleinLight and fresh fragrance a bit similar to CK One, but heavier in a sense that there's a noticeable musk note going through with some interesting "soapy" undertones. Lasts longer than CK One and more interesting in general. Recommended. 17th December, 2002. |
| | Bogner B Man by BognerThere's a a complimentary fragrance for Bogner B Man called Bogner Woman, the bottles are identical in shape, but the colour is different: Bogner Man is blue, BW is orange. Anyways, BM is a fresh casual fragrance with notes of green tangerine (which gives it a somewhat bitter bite), grapefruit, birch leaves, then goes an accord of black tea, pepper and basil, and the basenotes are composed of sandalwood and oakmoss. 17th December, 2002. |
