Fragrance Reviews by bonzo

this is a warm,soft! ,sensual and creamy feminine scent-typical for the 80ies.Top notes include mimose,coriander,tuberose,melon,plum and green notes.The middle notes include cedar,rose,orange blossom,patchouli,jasmine,lilly of the valley and cardamon.the base notes include sandalwood,spices,amber,musk,civet,vetiver,oakmoos etc.To me it´s a mainly floral composition although it ´s been declared as a chypre floral.The fresh floral opening is very nice but in the end you smell rose, rose ,rose....a floral bouqet plus sandalwood,musk, and amber.in the end i´s very woodsy apart from the rose bouquet.It´s a well balanced fruity rose composition,elegant and sophisticated- preferable for women, not girls.It´s nice but not exciting or fascinating.If you look for a chypre floral i recommed le dix by balenciaga, chance by chanel, coco mademoiselle by chanel, diva by ungaro, chant d´aromes by guerlain or the really great givenchy III.knowing is nice but does not make you dream of more.....
use this perfume in small doses .....it can easily become annoying.

the scent has a fresh(green) and crispy opening and the drydown has a warm aromatic and woody note.It lasts quite long and it develops a nice smell-not less not more.This scent starts with basil and bergamot, and mixes up with pepper.patchouli and roses are the dominating middle notes-the vetiver i did not smell....The Base is creme brule-lots of amber and vanilla.Not bad but again nothing exciting,unique or special.it´s ok but if it would disappear you wouldn´t miss it-the name is a shame -strictly private-what are we going to expect?what is going to happen?-and the black bottle with the golden badge-cheap- this is nouveau riche!There are absolutely better aromatic oriental scents than this one!

aromatic scent of the 70ties.it is comparable to drakkar noir, gainsboro, brut by faberge´etc.To me it smells dated and it is an old men´s scent.A simple, average perfume-nothing outstanding or special but surely this was not the intention when they launched this scent.Marbert man fulfills the expectations of a man´s scent of the seventies-aromatic,good flavour,very 70ties masculine.definitely not bad.

This is a man´s scent- very masculine : a citrus-woody scent,very aromatic, full flavoured,powerful.It reminds meof Azzaro pour home which i love very much too.paco rabannes fragrance is a fresh crispy and spicy scent- timeless and classical! It´s a man´s fragrance-big strong handsome guys, self-confident and virile.And you will whrerever you are recognize it among all the scents because this one is unique! And the bottle- simple and good!

this is pour un homme concentrated- a huge bunch of vanilla and lavender- not more not less! to me nothing outstanding, special or unique.Again a reformulation that fails.The Original of 1954 was great but this is a poor and bad mixture of the ingredients of pour un homme-by the way a really good scent!

leomons over lemons- not more not less- only a huge lemon juice.extremely intense lemon feeling -very fresh.if you like citrus scents there are more refined ones like eau sauvage etc- a better choice!

not worth to review.

i would love to know what is going on in the minds of the responsables at chanel!!!???

if you think of pour monsieur and antaeus, two really great scents-so what has happenend in the meantime to this company-

producing cheap citrus scents that you easily can buy in any drugstore for less money - do only ask for a shower gel and you

get an absolutely better smelling one................

allure edition blanche is a slap in the face- one of the worst launches in the last years!

diorella reminds me of eau sauvage pour homme- a woody citrus, but in comparison to eau sauvage warmer,more sensual, and definitely sweeter, floral-with a touch of melon.A fantastic, elegant and outstanding perfume by the great edmond roudnitska.this perfume can be worn by a man too but in small doses.I prefer it to eau sauvage because it´s brighter,more complex and "rounder "-eau sauvage too me is the prework, the test and diorella the masterpiece, the mature , more superior and reflected version of eau sauvage- they both are great timeless, unique and outstanding perfumes but diorella is the better eau sauvage- the superb ice cream with lots of clotted cram on top- definitely a treasure in the history of perfume making!by the way- another restoration- but to my opinion a good work!

i haven´t had the possibility to smell the original cravache but the the reformulated and reissued cravache is a huge disappointment, specially when you know that bandit and baghari, two perfumes of piguet have been reformulated fantastically and smell great.Cravache is a cheap, boring citrus scent and i always felt a bad taste of lliquorice....very unsettling note...-nothing interesting and definitely does not make you dream of more.........an older friend told me that the old cravache had a trace of leather and another ingredient was bergamot-so this one is something totally different!by the way if you look for intelligent,good masculine fragrances then i recommend the classical and timeless scents as eau sauvage by dior-azzarro pour homme-vetiver by guerlain-habit rouge-troisieme homme by caron-aramis for men-lauder for men.If you want to dare it: cuir de russie by chanel, bandit by piguet.

what a joy and what a pleasure- one of another great perfumes by robert piguet is back!great job has been done !the opening of this orange chypre! is sensational-what an explosion-this is great symphony, a real masterpiece and the responsable of the restoration has done a perfect work-congratulations!It is a spicy, warm, sensual fruity and aldehydic perfume-to me it´s fresh chypre, becoming a dark warm and powdery scent but never losing it´s complexity specially the chypre fresh note-superb and perfect composition.It´s sophisticated , unique, elegant and a really hors concours- a true masterpiece- a jewel ! It reminds me of the grat guerlain perfumes-this is an example of great parfumery-and definitely outstanding!I am so glad that piguet is back and someone like A.Guichard is able to restore this masterpiece autentically.This is smething for connaisseurs!And try bandit-another restored masterpiece.......................

everything has been said-this is a pure and intense soapy powdery scent-a barbershop as it´s best-a boring scent, nothing special, unique , surprising or exciting.

there are better citrus scents as this one.this is pure lemon and citrus-too intense with no staying power!very boring , simple and nothing special- go for eau sauvage ir yves saint laurent pour homme if you´re looking for a classical citrus summer scent or monsieur de givenchy but eau d´hadrien is a total waste of money-one of he most uninteresting scents ever made-lemon pure that lasts for 2 hours - if this scent is discontinued noone would miss it!By a cleaner at a drugstore and you get the same but for less money ..........................

Halston a great american designer launches in the seventies two scents that are both unique and very special.Z-12 has a great opening- fresh, crispy, aromatic, developping right from the beginning a great flavour-it´s an intense,bright and loud perfume-not decent,not quiet-this is Halston as it´s best-a special masculine cologne- but a typical man´s scent of the seventies and to my mind not timeless.Pure oppulence, powerful,warm.musk, amber, vanilla-evrything put togetherbetter said thrown together and waiting for the explosion- this is studio 54 ,a heavy, intense and dark EdT-I loved the opening because it´s very interesting but the more you experience this scent the more you want to get rid of because this is not mozart -this is strawinsky , bartok and schoenberg at the same time....I felt thrown back into the 70ties- I didn´t have the feeling to experience a timeless and eternal perfume like eau sauvage, azarro por homme, pour monsieur by chanel or the original vetiver by guerlain-This was not cuir de russie, a really luxurious scent and monument of classical perfumery-Z1-12 is crazy, freaky and from a different time.I personally prefer more decent, quiet scents -the classical icons of the perfume history.Halston is definitely interesting but too much -and Halston was the same: a great designer but living on the edge, very intensively, loud,crazy, risky....- unique and very special! I would love if we would have more of these people today!

Orange-Amber- very intense,sweet and dominating.As it has been said it´s very guerlain and it remains you of all these old, dated perfumes like muchoir de monsieur , heritage etc-warm, too warm and sensual, full of vanilla and too powdery.And what I disliked most is the the remaining huge and intense cloud of perfume that stays and comes again and again.............it remains me too of these old ladies perfumes or for an old boring , grey haired man!- heavy oriental und too much flavour !INothing special, unique, timeless or outstanding- simply an EdT-not luxurious, not special.Very disappointing!And I swear you-this is definitely not New York-you all know wht´s New York about!

Hopefully this is the original version of 1959!Congratulations to Givenchy that they they dare launching this very unique and special scent being really different from what is launched in general and absolutely not the mainstream!Very decent, discret and sophisticated and even unique vetiver.A gentleman´s choice!I prefer this vetiver instead of guerlain´s because this one is fresh, clean and minimalistic.Thanks god no vanilla !In comparison to guerlain´s vetiver this one is not so warm,not so intense strong and sensual- it is a very clear, a bit harsh and bitter- maybe spicy and herbal vetiver and you never have the impression that it becomes too intense and to dominating! To me it is the best vetiver I hab´ve smelled so far!

This is a classical, distinguished and elegant gentleman´s scent for an older person.The start of the this scent is amazing-an opening of citrus-orange, quite fresh and crispy and the drydown is leather-tobacco, what you feel already at the beginning but within the time it becomes the dominating overall aroma.Very warm and sensual!Very well composed and very well put togehter but it lasts for hours and is very intense.And it has a powdery touch full of vanilla what i personally dislike.This is a unique, man´s scent but this perfume is of another time- well it has been launched 1925!But in comparison to chanel´s cuir de russie or no.5 two great scents of that time, this one smells a bit dated and a bit daddylike.It´s not timeless because you feel wearing it another century, another time -the world of the k&k austrian monarchy.....As it has been already mentionned -be careful using it because it is very intense-only a few spritzer!I personally dislike the dominating vanilla-powdery note and if you really want to feel a great perfume full of luxury and greatness then try bandit by piguet or cuir de russie or JHL by Lauder or even givenchy´s III- they make you dream of so much more and you feel wrapped in a touch of perfume- as a windbreeze always around you...........Knize ten is definitely a very good and outstanding scent but not the olymp of perfumemaking-try also guerlain´s perfumes!

Equipage is a smoky leather scent, very well composed by Guy Robert.Masculine, elegant, decent, not loud-a fine gentleman´s perfume.Equipage is for an elder gentleman.Soft,warm and powdery.It lacks a bit modernity and feels a bit dated.Although interesting and singular, not a masterpiece but recommended.Not timeless, but somehow unique.Not exciting or daring but solid and classic.Still you feel, there is missing something......................

the words are missing, so disappointing the experience has been!according to luca turin this is an A-class scent- i definitely cannot agree and as it has been already said the biggest waste of money and one of the worst perfumes i ever smelled!A cheap fruit basket on the lowest level- a simple mixture of tropical fruits.....very sweet, disturbing, badly mixed up, very chemical and artificial melange and as it has been aready said-at the certain point the scent becomes exhausting, unpleasant and nerving, almost causing headaches.There comes the point when you can´t smell it anymore!This one of the worst and most horrible perfumes I have ever bought!Really awful and bad!
It is so sad because this company has produced such great scents as Lauder for men,JHL and do not forget Private cllection,Alliage, Youth Dew-masterpieces!What is happening to this company?If Estee Lauder knew.........................

Z-14 is to my ópinion a typical 70ties scent- powerfull, loud, dominating.This scent reflects Halston´s lifestyle.The scent is a warm, aromatic and spicy.Too intense and dominating, too harsh and wild.This is a masculine fragrance but typical 70ties.It stays too powerful and reminds too present.Here I am and here I come - not a refined, decent and elegant masculine scent (certainly not wanted)and a timeless perfume- no ! this is a very strong smelling edt - come on lets have a party in studio 54.Somehow it is unique and reminds me of bel ami by hermes and devin of aramis(a launch in the seventies too).What I definitely appreciate is the fact, that this is Halston!pure Halston!you will recognize it among all the perfumes because it´s special.this is a very present and dominating scent for a man but be careful and use it in small doses because it has so much power and lasts so long!And what I like too- it belongs to a time when perfumes where still created and had personality!not as nowadays when all smells the same and male scents smell as girls perfumes!

indeed vetiver by creed is a perfectly balanced composition and the ingredients very well mixed-vetiver by goutal to my opinion is to sharp and dominant,the drydown of guerlains vetiver, which obviously is a great scent,to powdery, soft and with a touch of vanilla.Creeds vetiver is definitely my favourite-classical,elegant, decent but present.fresh and a touch spicy and soft-but perfectly balanced!Anyway a perfume is something very personal and subjective but vetiver by creed is always a good decision- a gentleman´s scent-timeless, distinguished and masculine.Nothing for a boy or fancy and trendy people-keep in mind that it was j.F. Kennedy´s favourite edt.....any questions?

what a cheap and bad smelling ordinary cologne......keeping in mind that lancome, this really great and famous company launched fragrances like balafre, sikkim,climat, tresor,sagamore etc.hypnose does not let you dream and ask for more....as cuir de russie and bois des iles.....perfumes that have a unique, special and refined smell....hypnose is sharp, loud and dominating and a stinking water.....quickly it starts to nerve and cause nauseas.definitely a no go!

fresh,clean and light fragrance.all over body spray/splash.well balanced and nice composition mainly containing citrus notes.for daily use,unisex and quite special comparing it to all other fragrances being launched in the last years.preferably for daily use.summer scent for daily use.

Armani-refined,distinguished classical italian clothes....great stuff in the 80ties.....even his first male fragrance in this very unique bottle....

two decades later this grandseigneur of italian fashion launches one of the worst perfumes i ever smelled!Not worth the price!

a beautiful, virile bottle!and a good advertising campaign but who the hell(sorry)was in charge of the fragrance composition?the opening , quite woody and fresh ends up in a sweet stinking water...a huge lack of quality!very vulgar and ordinary and i cannot loose the impression that i have smelled it a thousand times before.....e.g.B-man,escada etc.etc.is this the sell-out and sale of armani?as it has been mentionned before-armani prive´ and his furniture line are still great works-so what is happening to the perfumes?attitude-by the way the handling of the botle can become nerving-is so boring and uninteresting and it does definitely not make dream of more and longing for more....

i am really sorry- an absolute desaster!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!boring!not worth to spend the money!go for a chanel, guerlain, loewe,piguet,guerlain or caron............this is really goof stuff!and special!

where is the difference between kiton and kiton black?another huge deception but fantastically wrapped-this is a vulgar,ordinary and simple water of nothing!If you really look for a great perfume then have a look at piguet,chanel,guerlain,givenchy,loewe-but the old ones!these were really perfumes and on top special ones!!!!!!!!!!!

nothing special,ok but it does not make you dream of more!Kiton-well-known for it´s suits etc.had to launch a perfume as all others-and hurry up, mix whatever and launch it with a perfect marketing campaign-and make money....what a pity!what a deception!but this is how it works today......germaine Cellier, Ernest Beaux and all the other great perfumers would be ashamed and embarassed.....

loewe, a very well-known spanish company for luxury goods presents with loewe pour homme a fresh,elegant and refined scent for a gentleman.very well composed,perfectly mixed and well balanced-a light and clean citrus scent that is really wellcome-masculine and virile but discret and distant.a subtle and fine fragrance for your daily use-and really spanish!Great and outstanding-and very comfortable!Olé!!!

great and outstanding feminine scent!as it has been said: floral, green chypre fragrance.classical and elegant for a real woman- this is not agirl´s scent-this is a scent for a sophisticated and feminine woman!superb!

maybe a scent of another time.....but still timeless.Elegant,decent and classical.fresh and warm citrus scent.you won´t do any mistake wearing it.good choice in summer besides pour monsieur by chanel and eau sauvage by dior.nothing for kinky little boys.it´s a gentleman´s choice.

blenheim bouquet is a very traditional,conservative and aristocratic fragrance.Fresh,light and clean edt.Decent,elegant but formal.The opening is fresh-you may smell lavendar,pines and lemons -all in a pleasant way.The drydown is in my eyes too medical-you may have the sensation that it smells like in lab or a dentist´s office but not uncomfortable-interesting and special-definitely unique! not very longlasting.anyway this is a very interesting and well done scent-timeless and you will never make a mistake wearing it-it is a distinguished scent with the touch of nobility and sophistication .this green fragrance is definitely better than all other green fragrances on the market. do not expect a loud, dominating and intruding fragrance-this scent knows absolutely it´s superiority.this is definitely upper class and does not have to show off.great and fantastic scent-that has everything -style,class, character and masculinity.i appreciate that they haven´t change the bottle since the first launch and the bottle and package is wonderful too.this is absolutely the top of perfumes.oh, one little remark-hammam bouquet is so gorgeous and outstanding too!!!

this is a fresh and light citrus scent for young man.definitely not to compare with eaus sauvage ,sagamore or pour monsieur.nice,simple and ordinary.

this is hot and sexy-a sweet,warma and sensual scent for a sexy,good looking italian lover with spirit,humour and charisma!Aromatic,modern and a wondeful cologne for the evening- a party night in Rome!!!!!!!!!i prefer it on a younger, masculine and bronzed man.

lalique better known for their outstanding art works-they created f.e. the flacon for nina ricci´s air du temps must have realized one day that launching a perfume is the key to more money.But lalique is definitely not chanel,caron or guerlain!and the great times of outstanding perfumes are over or have you ever found in 2006 something comparable to cuir de russie,tabac blonde,bandit,jolie madame,quadrille etc.etc.???anyway encre noir is presented in a minimalistic nice bottle and the opening of this scent reminds me of comme de carcons pour homme, gucci pour homme-again a perfume similar to what´s already on the market and successful.again a fragrance that is not unique or special-the typical strategy of the century-i am producing a scent that has to and will be sold!
Encre noir is aromatic,warm and sensual but with a little fresh note ( vetiver)-the feeling of a woody aromatic note mixed up with the fresh and lighter vetiver is nice-one one hand a warm and smooth and on the other hand fresh.The scent reminds me of the smell in a church.....the opening is really promising but the drydown isn´t anymore-the scent is nice and ok but doen´t make you dream or want more.....if you really want more, you wanna feel inspired,seduced then you should have a look a the already above mentinned perfumes.encre noir by lalique is a nice eau de toilette-not less not more and aren´t we all nice??!!

take a smell of eau de calandre-great outstanding perfume of the 70ties ! paco is nothing special-a simple,fresh and light eau de toilette-not less not more-you may use it in the lavatory a room spray or to make disappear a bad smell but this definitely not a fragrance.The bottle is a nice design but that´s all-paco rabanne the great couturier who has been so progressive and interesting and unique launches such a bad stuff-can someone explain it to me???oh yeah let´s make money and sell the people cheap stuff-what do you think we are?idiots? a vulgar water with flavour-not less not more!

pleasures for women was quite nice and very succesfull-so understandable to launch pleasures for men but pleasures is again one of the great deceptions.Estee Lauder has developped such great scents as JHL or Lauder for men and do not forget all those great scents for women but this is definitely not anymore her signature-cheap smell, uninteresting,ordinary vulgar-the same as intuition,l´homme by yves saint laurent etc.hey le´ts make money and launch bad stinking water with flavour and the people will buy it... this perfume smells as all the others of that time-boss,lacoste,canali,kiton etc.but there is so much missing-if you really are interested in a good scent look at the older ones of dior,guerlain!,caron etc.but leave your fingers away from this really cheap stuff like pleasures-definitely a nightmare and no pleasures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

after all these really outstanding fragrances like lauder for men and JHL now this really disgusting,boring water-a truly deception!This badly tasting water isn´t anymore estee lauder-already the name-intuition-does not match.the bottle is a bad design and better for a woman´s fragrance and most important the fragrance:light and fresh but definitely nothing special, very vulgar and ordinary but nothing interesting!as it has been said : really cheap smell-run away as fast as you can!one of the worst pefumes i´ve ever tried in my life-oh, l´homme by yves saint laurent is as bad as this one !!!

lauder for men is absolutely a fantastic scent for a man and i am talking about a man!a fresh chypre-clear,light and well balanced-all ingredients very well mixed and orchestrated.This is an elegant and classical edt for daily use, for the office as well as in the evening.it is really masculine and very pleasant-not nerving, not exhausting- as i said evrything perfectly put together.pour monsieur is too warm and smooth, eau sauvage too much lemon and citrus, sagamore too oriental-estee lauders edt is the perfect composition - if you look for a classical and elegant masculine fragrance with this special touch then you are right.not to recommend to young, skinny crazy metrosexuals-this is an edt for a succesfull, elegant 30 + with self-cnfidence and sure of himself!Great american edt.By the way JHL would bethe perfect match then for winter!

fantastic reorchestrated by the genius of tom ford-he takes this very classical, elegant and a bit dated fragrance and turns it into a sexy,hip but marvellous scent and this is an example how it shoul be done-you still smell and feel the original version-and the original is definitely outsatnding and unique but tom ford gives it th touch of today-you smell at the same time the classical youth dew and the renewed version which is more sexy,cooler and clearer.the original is classy,down to earth, elegant,sensual and warm and tom ford gives these great composition the final touch of modernity-wonderful arranged and well mixed up!Great work.In conclusion:youth dew amber is the modern version of an outstanding,classical and unique fragrance.Warm,sensual,mysterious, oriental and powerful.with the touch of coolness of the gucci heroe-wonderful!!!

estee´lauder has created some outstanding and fabulous fragrances like jhl for men, estee lauder for men, youth dew etc.alliage is a fresh, very green, intense and very aromatic scent.it may bother you because the opening is very strong and intense and very powerful-the drydown more comfortable-that is to say within the time you will feel more pleased with the scent but it may disturb you because it is very intense.a very well done scent but i miss a smoother and softer part or what is it?as it has been said it can become stinky and it can bother you but this is a personal opinion.in conclusion-freh,green,intense edt for an active,powerful person-unisex scent!and you will recognise it!this is an original and really good fragrance!

these were still times..........but these times are gone.....evrything has been said-great and outstanding fragrance!sophisticated,elegant and classical-a perfectly composed feminine fragrance.A really wonderful opening of aldehydes but at the same time a perfect drydown-you cannot get enough!Very well balanced and orchestrated.This is a fragrance that makes you dream of more.....Cool, glamorous and sexy!And a nice bottle!

yves saint laurent is to my opinion one of the really great genius of fashion.He launched the very interesting ysl pour homme as well as rive gauche and y pour femme-absolutely delightful.And now this!?yves saint laurent isn´t running anymore his company and he has left a longtime ago-very sad-he must be totally shocked!
this scent is a cheap,vulgar and very simple edt and does smell as all the other stuff being launced in 2006-this is a bad smelling and boaring fragrnace and this company has reached the bottom-they can´t sink deeper! you spray it and nothing-you want to run away-it is a mixture of i don´t know what-you have smelled this so many times in all different variations and now they wanna make you believe that this is something unique or special or what?!Incredible that this company has the courage to launch such a bad,bad tasting water and on top they ask you to pay a lot of money for it!!Disgusting and ridiculous-incredible!
anyway the bottle´s design is quite nice but the advertising with this so called actor is a huge deception-
to my opinion at the end of the 70ties it was over-joy,tabac blond,first, bandit,eau sauvage ,jolie madame,vent vert,the old chanel and caron-these were times and what outstanding scents-nowadays they present the worst stuff you ever can imagine for an incredible amount of money?!where are the successors for the great,great germaine cellier,edmond roudnitska , ernest beaux, jean charles etc.
the company of ysl should either ask ysl to come back or to have a look at chanel and jacques polge-he is doing a perfect and admirable job and now he has launched rue cambon-if you really wanna smell a perfect scent of 2006-then go to the next chanel boutique and buy them all-they are outstanding!
But l´homme by ysl is really really sad and one of the worst perfumes ever made- a gifle pour toute la parfumerie!sorry monsieur saint laurent-come back and create something as gorgeous as rive gauche pour femme or y again-not to talk about your unforgettable haute couture-thanks anyway for a grat time in fashion.
okay in conclusion-do not waste your money for a boring,uninteresting,short living fragrance of some spicy and fresh ingredients!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

this is a fresh,clean, light citrus scent.Well balanced,good start and nice drydown.In comparison to pour monsieur of chanel it is not so warm, sensual and smooth.Eau sauvage by christian dior is more intense and harsh- to much lemon.Sagamore is decent and pleasant eau de toilette.On the other hand it is simple ( what you may love).If you look for an outstanding scent,you want to inhale all the time, you want to become obsessed with, a scent that inspires you and makes you dream etc. then sagamore is definitely not the right choice.There are other perfumes that smell unique and very special-you will have to look at the old perfumes of guerlain, caron and chanel.

it reminds me of halston z14....woody, spicy and really intense and dominating.typical scent of the 8oies.very rich and aromatic-a full blend.for all those who long for such a fragrance are right.ito me this fragrance is too strong and too intense and unfortunately there is one ingredient htat bothers me too much-sad.
oh if you wanna a leather scent-look for a creed scent or chanels cuir de russie-awesome!

unfortunately and despite of all the positive reviews it does not work for me.i find it too warm, too sensual,too smooth and too powdery.maybe it´s because i am addicted to the chypre scents and the aldehydes.jicky is shalimar and shalimar is pure vanilla.i miss the edges.jicky is too nice.

beautiful bottle and great citrus scent-elegant and classical.Decent,discret,fresh, clean and light.i used to wear this edt for years and although i gave it up it remains an eternal and timeless fragrance that i can highly recommend to all the people looking for a good and well done scent.you don´t do any mistakes using this classical scent-very lemon and french.It may be a bit strong, herb ab´nd harsh but if you look for a smoother and warmer edt i can recommend pour monsieur par chanel.
They will always remain and be there forever.......

i have been using this scent for years but within the time i realized that, although it is a classical, fresh and clean scent-a nicely composed and well mixed fragrance of citrus and neroli-comparable to eau sauvage,bois de portugal,armani pour homme-to my opinion too warm and powdery i was missing the special note.it is a decent and discret scent.if you look for a sweet,warm ,sensual lemon fragrance with a little oriental touch it will be right for you.But if you look for a unique and special fragrance with depth and this very special touch of being outstanding you may look for something else.pour monsieur,devin,aramis etc. was ok in my twenties and thirties but then i discovered the secret scents....scents full of history and with a soul.....do not misunderstand me-pour monsieur is an elegant classical and nice scent but you may come to a point where you long for more-there are more subtle and refined scents-did you know that bois des iles from chanel is a kind of egoiste but definitely better, or the vintage bandit by piguet, blenheim bouquet and hammam bouquet-smell them and you know what iam talking about.smell tabac blonde,derby-and you will feel this sensation-pour monsieur is ok(like a good car)but the older you get you realize that there is more , a better one, heaven....(like a porsche 911 or an old ferrari, old aston martin....)okay?!pour monsieur is ok but there is so much more left to discover.....the old creed scents , the old chanel(take a smell of cuir de russie and you will feel something very,very special..this is perfection and far away from reality-this is the top(as an example)and this is what i am missing.....pour monsieur is nice and ok but not the perfect artistic work-not a rembrandt,monet,dürer etc.Getting older you will feel perfumes you will never ever forget....by the way JHL by estee lauder is a rembrandt too....an american...a perfect scent with a beautiful history,very personal,unique and really outstanding!

not bad-a simple edt comparable to kiton for men,nothing special, quite boring-to take it once but you won´t ask for more-well it is not chanel,guerlain or caron...........it is canali-why do all have to launch a perfume???!!!

one of the worst and bad stuff i ever put my nose in-why are these people allowed to launch a perfume?this stinking fragrance is really causing bad dreams!you wouldnßt even take this stuff to clean the lavatory!

strong herbal annoying and nerving old fashioned perfumed spanish water!

having tasted a lot of outstanding floral,fascinating,rich but unfortunately feminine scents i nearly was giving it up-but accidentally it was recommended to me and it has been one of my my most amazing experiences-hammam bouquet is a male-definitely a scent for a man!-perfume:rich, elegant,warm oriental,floral, classy and it so distinguished and decent!Discret and elegant-you feel it but it is never dominating, nerving or exhausting-you feel surrounded by the memories of a journey into the ancient oriental baths and palaces....oriental countries...and on the other hand it is the old british empire....you live the upper class life in a british colony....remember a passage to india or similar books....this perfume captures the complete british history...and as time goes by this scent becomes more and more interesting and fascinating...a fragrance with heart and soul.....it is absolutely a gentleman´s eau de toilette-so sophisticated and exceptional-a timeless really great scent specially for those who look for the unique!Absolutely gorgeous-you can´t describe the perfection of this scent-you have to taste it!and 1872-are there any questions?!hey it´s 2007 and hammam bouquet is a thrilling and outstanding scent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nicely composed-well balanced note of vetiver-not too strong,quite smooth-very agreable.well the tonka note is ok but the more you know the fragrances of ellena you will get used to some mysterious and strange compositions and mixtures and at the end you may like the result.this one is ok-if you look for a tough and loud note of vetiver then take the scent of guerlain-if you look for something more distinguished and superb try annick goutal´s vetiver.this one is ok-not less not more but hermes has done the superb caleche -but in the end they should stick what they can do best: leather goods and ties! perfumes by hermes 2006 are ok but nothing outstanding or amazing-oh yes!the price is ridiculous high and not understandable!

i have tried a sample but it is a huge deception.Sadness!If you have a look at the outstanding fragrances launched by Dior specially ib the 50ties,60ties and seventies-Miss dior,Eau Sauvage,Diorissimo,Diorella this is really disappointing-very feminine,light and clean,warm Iris smell-it does not start that bad but within some seconds sweetness overcomes you and this scent reminds you of a cheap old ladie´s cologne...you feel it..powdery,dusty.a bit androgyneous-maybe for a slim, feminine boy of 20-definitely not a man´s scent!

unfortunately the head note-the strong citrus and sharp lemon notes are dominating in a very strong way and within the time these notes become harmful and annoying....i am sorry but even if you spray a very,very small amount you do not feel the middle and basic notes-it is all about lemons and lemons-nothing else-a it stays this sharp-no harmony of the notes, a full and warm cologne-definitely not-clean lemons.Comparable to eau sauvage but not as complex and decent-armani is hard-cool-loud and the citrus very strong-too strong.pour monsieur is to my opinion the better choice-a warm blend, the ingredients better mixed and a nicer softer drydown.anyway armani 1984-the cool yuppies-no soul -no heart and this is reflected by the fragrance-choose an old guerlain, chanel or penhagalion´s scent-you feel the intimacy, the soul, love and the heart of a scent...

fresh,light but to much citrus , too crispy and too harsh and herbal-after 5 minutes i go nuts because it feels ubearable-eau sauvage by dior is definitely better or eau imperiale by guerlain-not so intense and not so much citrus!

another great scent for all times-if you smell this scent you can feel what is meant.....after the storm,the sun shines again, the wet grass, the wind brings all different kind of smells-all this and much more has been captured by the perfumeur.Amazing how all the different feelings and emotions after a storm have been transferred - you can really feel the smell after the storm-what an intelligent scent.What an incredible work -perfect!I remember on a flight from Hongkong to frankfurt an amazing looking lady in her 50ties-the purserette-walking by-i never ever will forget the way she walked, thick,long curly hair, beautiful legs and the way she looked-and the smell of her perfume....it will always be on my mind and at the end of the flight i asked her and the way she glanced at me and replied....apres l´ondee.....unbelievable!she was this scent!this is perfume making on the highest level!as all the old guerlain scents.....

one of the great etrnal masterpieces of perfume making-there is nothing to say about it-try it and you know what´s about-very elegant,classical and unique-perfectly composed-perfect harmony and balance of ingredients!Amazing -and a scent for a good looking, elegant and charismatic woman! not a girl-a real woman!

hermes-leather goods, pure luxury and fascinating scents as caleche or eau d´hermes.now jean claude ellena presents hermessance.Poivre samarcande is a nicely composed scent-not less not more.quite spicy- lots of pepper but not disgusting.But the longer you use this scent you realize that it is nothing special and easy to substitute by something else-whatever....or to replace by -i don´t know what.You realize the simplicity of this scent the more you use it-a scent for the masses-totally overprized and definitely not a masterpiece-nothing exquisite, nothing special, nothing to remember-oh, spray it wherever you like to- if you really want to feel and smell and taste great unforgettable scents-being fine, sublime,distinguished and eternal then give a try to scents launched till 1975-the old guerlain,chanel and caron scents-these are real scents-have you ever tasted cuir de russie?what a scent....well balanced, you feel the whole history about it and you´ll never, ever forget this unique and superb smell of leather.....hermessance are replacable, quite boring scents, too expensive and definitely not timeless masterpieces or alltime favourites......put your nose into the old dior,chanel, caron, carven,gres,piguet flacons-and then you will know what great scents are!but only then.....

this is really a milestone in perfume history, as many other scents launched by guerlain-timeless,but with an inmortal history and you are a part of it.....very special, difficult to describe and to analize....a secret of ingredients-soft, warm but daring and a bit harsh on the other side...daring, coming, leaving and being again there...and you love to inhale the touch you are surrounded by.It is always in the air, in so many different ways-in my eyes it is well suited for a man.Never exhausting or boring-when i tried it for the first time i put it on my wrist- it was ok -i left the store and hours later i felt suddenly this amazing perfume all around me...but always in very very small doses coming in....and i was longing for more and more.....and i went the next day straight away to the perfumery and bought the edt.Vol de nuit is exceptional, very special and too dificult to describe what it is and what you smell....but it changes permanently it´s colours....so many different colours....what a picture...vol de nuit is a perfume for conaisseurs, vol de nuit is the top of the top!

again a famous and very well known house of jewellry tries to launch a perfume-why?!.It is a waste of time and money!Again the will to make more money but it ends in a desaster.....declaration is a fruit basket,badly composed,definitely to intense and sweet for a man,to powerful in the head notes,the drydown is ok but in conclusion:fresh,clean,simple and ordinary-nothing special or interesting.If you look for a jeweller who has succesfully launched a perfume ,have a look at van cleef and arpels or boucheron-great scents!But Cartier´s declaration is a declaration of having lost the battle......If you look for a decent, interesting and memorable perfume then have a look at chanel, robert piguet, guerlain, caron etc-the great eternal french perfumeurs-and specially the scents of the last centuries-unbelievable classy and good!

nicely composed-oriental,warm and sensual-seduction,attraction, sex and lust-that´s obsession.....but there are definitely better fragrances.....

yes it is aromatics elixir for men!men??dry,sharp,herbal and floral notes,soft,sensual and warm and, as it has been said, with a feminine touch.Somehow unique,special but a bit old and dated.To me this fragrance does not fulfill my expectations-the mixture is not bad and the opening nice but the drydown is chaos.I want a scent to surround me as a wind breeze,you feel the touch of the perfume, it accompanies you discretely,in a decent and an elegant way-well aramis 900 is too much-too herbal,too dry,and even somehow exhausting....it is to present-put it on and it´s like poison-too impulsive to potent and within the time it is not getting better-it is a mass,chaos-all the indredients are getting nuts-where is the feeling of a great scent?the feeling of a perfect composition-this is bartok and not mozart,if you know what i mean...i wanna enjoy a perfume and feel the well balanced substances but aramis learned-have a look at JHL-PERFECT and MARVELLOUS!!!

similar to un jardin en mediterranee but not so nerving and exhausting.It is a fresh and clean scent-herbal,spicy and some fruits....definitely a feminine scent!Not my cup of tea-would never give it as apresent to a woman-again quite boring,stining edt!

fresh,spicy,harsh,exotic-a very intense and powerful opening with to many impressions and too much of everything.The drydown becomes a nightmare-a long lasting spicy and dry scent.Makes you dizzy and rousy and nauseas.....To my opinion very feminine-badly balanced and not well composed!

A fresh,intense orange scent for summer.Maybe a bitt harsh and bitter but not uncomfortable.Lasts quite long.Nice opening, drydown ok if don´t spray too much.To me it´s a nice edt but nothing more.A bit boring.If you look for a great edt then please have a look at chanel, patou,guerlain,caron etc-there you will find great, really interesting perfumes!But if you wanna say -oh it´s hermes....then choose orange vert-it is as boring as the whole brand-and, this edt is definitely not very masculine.....metrosexual?androgyn?better for a boring,elderly,conservative lady.....

okay,nice bottle and package.warm oriental and sensual scent for a dreamer, an androgynous type.....very gucci, very tom ford -this is the time when men became thinner and thinner, would wear very tight open shirts and jeans...everything very metrosexual, vain skinny boys.....if you are one of these guccimania slim guysgirls then this edt is right for you....the scent is quite intense, a bit sweet and lasts long.

one of the good perfumes launched in the 90´s -a decade where most of the perfumes launched were simple cheap trush!Havanna is dark,smoky,virile, unique scent.Everything very well put together and it reminds you of cuban life-tobacco,sun,handsome and dark men hanging around and chilling out.....Very nice bottle and package!Spicy,woody-long lasting, powerful and intense-really a good edt!

very nice package and bottle.not my kind of perfume but nevertheless ok.spicy,woody,warm.well composed,very tom ford,very gucci-so, if you are one of these gucci boys and into the whole gucci mania you may like it....
anyway-a good perfume is something else to me......

oh my god-what a shame and deception for the whole perfume industry-what a bad,simple and unintelligent scent-what did they think while producing this stuff?Boring, simple,a smell of what?- no this stuff should be forbidden....what´s the matter with this company???

comparing all the fragrances launched by this cigarettes and cigars company i would agree to zztopps review-still the best offering.nothing special but ok-not a work from a grat parfumeur but ok.If you look for a really well composed scent you have to go for works by roudnitska,polge,cellier or beaux-they were really great -and if you really wanna smell a good perfume:go for caron,chanel,estee lauder,carven,piguet,balmain,guerlain etc.but leave your fingers away from the cool water cigars company-what a shame......

nice botlle design but the content of the bottle is a huge deception but i wasn´t expecting a miracle after cool water and the rest.....to my opnion davidoff were successful with smoking goods and they thought-oh, let´s make a perfume....and it ends up in a desaster!What a bad perfume-stinking , bad tasting water......Ken Russell has said all!

davidoff originally produced cigars and then they moved into perfumes....can someone explain me this misbehavin´?Cool water is the worst perfume i ever smelled....Terrible!Yes it is fresh but what a freshness-disgusting!!!!!!!!!!!

clasical and traditional scent that smells dated and old- a typical 80ies scent.not bad but nothing special or outstanding.somehow boring....

a nice fresh,light and clean edt.not less not more!take it after the shower or a bath,perfect in summer-well done.

oh my god-another great skincare company in search of more money-please stick to your roots and leave your fingers away from stuff you have no clue about!!!!!!!!!pricely exaggerated and badly stinking perfume-you will break up your relation using this so called perfume.....there won´t be love anymore-ladies if you love perfumes-have a look at caron,guerlain,patou,chanel and even estee lauder launched such great perfumes as private collection,white linen,youth dew etc.

very simple, ordinary and light water that stinks....happy?no sad!you can use it as a room spray or to clean the closet-but please do not use it as a perfume!please not!I don´t know what attitude they have-i mean clinique is a great company ,they launched great skin care and now they need to launch a perfume to make more profit but then ladies and gentlemen develop please a good perfume!This one is stinking water of oranges-a basket of a million bad oranges....ladies and gentlemen take the eau imperiale by guerlain if you seek for a cologne-this is a great fresh,clean and nice perfume!and clinique you have a second and last chance-to make a better one!aromatics elixir and wrappings are such nice perfumes-but what happened with happy????

Well, there is not much left to say-great classical and unique scent-it may remind you of chanel 5 but i like this one more-it can be used by a man too(it has been already mentionned)specially when you are a real man-brown and dark and handsome with a classical attitude-it is a fine, distinguished,uptown scent-spicy,aldehydic,floral,a bit softness but evrything perfectly composed-a perfume as it should be and to my opinion better than nr.5!But Chanel is nothing for a vulgar,ordinary and simple person(sorry)chanel is for a classical, charismatic, good looking and sexy person!

another really great perfume-yes this is such a loveable,fantastic and uncomparable perfume-this is classical chanel.Hors concours-very well balanced,the ingredients perfectly mixed and put together-from the opening to the drydown you feel like in heaven!It is so difficult to explain what you feel when you spray it for the first time.....floral,woody,a bit spicy....and so enjoyeable and comfortable-Whatever you take from Chanel-this is hot perfumery and on a high high level!Congratulations for the relaunch-Bois des iles is a unisex perfume-very exquisit and luxurious!

It may be a very classical scent but Vetiver of guerlain is too much vetiver-too green, too intense,too strong-and within the time it becomes worse, and on some people it stinks like an old soap-be careful and take a sample home and test it-you may feel comfortable with it but try it first in very small doses-Vetiver of guerlain is very harsh and too spicy.The opening still may be nice but the drydown is somehow hard, nerving and you want to get rid immediately of this scent.
To my opinion a perfume, a good perfume should be around you like a wind breeze-you feel the scent,you smell the scent -well balanced ingredients, nicely put togehter and composed and the perfume should accompany you but silently-Vetiver is loud and nerving and always infront of you and never around you....if you love vetiver try carven( see above)or annick goutal-definitely better balanced and finer....

fresh,light and easy going.Simple but delightful.It does not last very long-spray as much as you can.....you will never have the feeling of being too much-tasteful, classical and very nice-a cologne for all day use whereever and wheneveryou want!Very well composed!In comparison to all the so called eau´s and colognes of the last years this one is really a cologne and on top a timeless and distinguished one!Great work of Guerlain!

there has been already said a lot.....
interesting opening that ends in hell-bad leather scent-disgusting,stinky and nerving!If you really wanna smell leather then choose cuir de russie of chanel or bandit by piguet-but dzing is dzing-what a poor name...very sad and boring water....this is definitely not a perfume......

These were still times.....the great Edmond Roudnitska probably had the freedom to create whatever he had in mind-independent from marketing strategies etc.This great artist demonstrates once again his class and high standard:Eau d`Hermes is a warm, spicy, rich flavoured perfume-as it has been said-a bit powdery, soft and sweet.It reminds me of JHL of Lauder: distinguished,classy and longlasting and powerful.Mr. Roudnitska-have a look at all the other great perfumes he created-leaves us a tasteful and perfectly composed eau-it has been launched in 1951 but this one will last for ever and keep it´s class forever-it does not smell dated or old-it is timeless.But!!!do not take to much-the more you take it can become very intense and exhausting and nerving!It is a very rich and intense perfume that may change as it has been already described-a few drops-not more!The sad thing is that even hermes is slowly losing it´s exclusiveness and luxury-hermes was alway still very,very special but unfortunately hermes is beeing copied allover the world and have a look at market places or bazars specially in asia....sad...if you are seeking a special perfume that may give you the feeling of being the only one wearing it then have a look at the great relaunches of chanel( for example)......

another really and fascinating scent-a perfect composition where all notes match very well together:it starts a bit spicy and it becomes woody and a bit herbal and then maybe a touch floral-at the beginning you have the feeling not to know where it will end-quite exciting but after a time you can´t stop smelling this superbe fragrance-elegant and discret and never going on your nerves!very well done!

Yves Saint Laurent-unforgettable and outstanding fashion designer-hors concours!Spohisticated and classic!In comparison to Rive gauche and Y for women(grat,awsome perfumes!)YSL pour homme is lemon and citrus, badly, mixed pure!Harsh and to much lemon-no dry down-it stays too hard and strong all the time...Anyway, a very interesting scent-very fresh and light and citrus-nothing more.Squeeze some lemons on you and it is YSL pour homme but cheaper....For women he has done such a grat work but men have been neglected....sad!

This perfume is really DIVA!Floral but in a very nice way-warm, sensual,sexy and sophisticated-a very special, unique fragrance-for a great lady-a star and a diva.I had a friend: she had allure and was a bit stuck up and vain-very good-looking and always very chic and very up to date (dressed) with full blond hair and great eyes, a kind of Catherine Deneuve and she was wearing DIVA-unforgettable! Agreat,great perfume but for a DIVA!!!!!!!!!!!

One of Guerlains great compositions-soft,warm,powdry but a smell of the last century.To my opinion it is dated and it´s an old gentleman´s scent.Something for elderly and mature men...
Very decent, distinguished and sublime.
But to me to boring....It is not the inmortal scent that lasts for eternity-if you think of tabac blond, cuir de russie,bandit, chanel5-these are the scents that will -even used in 2006-be actual.Do not misunderstand me -muchoir de monsieur is a grat scent but of another century and world.Even Jicky and Mitsouko (what a great perfume)do not smell so dated but as I´ve said this perfume is a milestone in the history perfume and will remain a grat scent forever but......And for all the designer of 2006 : take an example: this is perfume making on a high,high level!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the great scents of the last decades!Special, unique ! Outstanding!But only a few drops!Do not exaggerate and then wait....for a long,long time...and then judge....okay?!It is a perfume, a real good intense and complex-definitely not boring!Sensitiv and sexy, warm and sensual,dominating and daring-and wherever you are -you will recognise it ! This is obsession and passion and not a simple and vulgar edt of 2006......

Hermes-a world of refined luxury and sophistication.Great scents like Derby and Bel ami and now this!?Terre d´hermes-nice advertising, very promising is a simple and vulgar fruit basket-orange and grapefruit,sour smell-it does not dry down to my opinion-it stinks the whole day and badly!It´s spicy and sweet, superficial and simple but on a high level.Again a huge deception-i mean l´eau d´hermes was a great work,the same as the first female scents but Terre d´hermes is a deep deception.Ellenas composition ends up in a chaos and mass!A perfume this is chanel ( cuir de russie), tabac blond(caron), A-man(Mugler)etc. But Terre d´hermes is a disappointment on a high level but the bottle is nice.At least one point!

Valentin, one of the great couturiers presents a very feminine, sophisticated and classical scent.It matches very well with the very classical gowns he does.Nothing daring,unique or special-but a very nice scent.

I personally have been disappointed by this edt.Spicy, intense,harsh,powerful-full of cntradictions.It starts delicious-you feel at once so many ingredients....italian way of life-on a high level-sexy, virile, passionate-and then suddenly the deception: this too much -too much of all!too intense, too powerful-like a lost of control of the perfume-and the nightmare starts:you feel dizzy, rousy-nauseas!This was my experience but everyone has an own perception!It starts so sexy and delicate -everything nicely put together and then the confusion-too intense, too many ingredients ending up in a chaos-very sad because when you smell it, first it`s gorgeous.Vendetta was definitely better and V by Valentino seems to be better too-anyway very nice bottle and may be your skijn is different and you feel different-try it - this pure italian way of life...

Most of the things have been said already.Por un homme by Caron is a very traditional, classical scent for someone who loves lavendar waters.A bit vanilla and citrus were added.It may be used by elderly gentlemen.A bit dated and conservative.Well at that time a man was not used to wear a cologne as nowadays.I personally used it for a time but I was missing the very special touch,the touch of being unique- and already the third man by caron is definitely different.But in it´s simplicity this edt is a grat scent and it captures the times and what men would use and were suppose to use.But if you look for something more daring, adventurous,unforgettable choose another scent......

Another outstanding perfume of the last decades.Classical,sexy and unique.Woody,metallic and floral compounds but everything very well mixed!It is one of the first perfumes I remember of my mother and she was wearing inher younger years the really grat great scents like Vent Vert and Jolie Madame of Balmain, LeDyx and Quadrille by Balenciaga,Caleche by Hermes and Arpege by Lanvin-so this one fits perfectly-you should be a good looking, sexy young woman with class and distuingished.It is a scent of the 70ties but it is timelass-if you look for an everyday perfume, you can specially wear in the office etc. then try this wonderful perfume!By the way great bottle design-it matches very well with the scent.And ladies, if you wear this perfume- you won´t be forgotten-this is a scent to remember ! This scent has something .....it´s not like the whole artificial stuff that has been launched in 2006-all similar and no difference, the same simple smell, the same boaring package-all vulgar and cheap!But already the name-Eau de Calandre.....let it roll on your tongue, a look at the package and some drops on your skin....a very special and unique perfume made by the great Paco Rabanne at a time when one grat perfume after the other where in production-and the really great Chamade of Guerlain was launched in the same year....Perfumes that will last forever-The Eau de Calandre is a scent for a sexy, classy upotown girl without allure! You are a self-confident, well educated and classy woman who knows where she comes from and where she belongs too ! And you wanna have something not everyone has!

wonderful-outstanding-perfect-timeless-eternal-unique!Okay?Not for everyone....but for the one!!!!!!!!!

very nice edt-timeless fresh....form the 60ies but still modern!Definitely better than the whle stuff from 2000-2006!!!!!!!!

similar and almost the same what´s on the market today-nothing special-very expensive and simple!Roberto Cavalli is definitely a handsome man with a strong will and looking like a lion-why does he such bad sissi stuff for men?Not all are androgyn!Where are the real male scents folks?Okay,if it´s a present you may clean the carpets or the bathroom with it but do not complain if it smells worse than Mr.Proper...hehehhe...

tommy is tommy: little young boys, giggling and laughing with a huge smile and everything is nice,lovely and pretty-okay and this is tommy edt too: simple,easy going,fresh and not more and i guess it doen´t want to be more-a first edt for the american youth being on the sunnyside of life..... but if you are a grown up and you have found yourself and you who you are and what you want then please go for a french classical scent if you look for a light and fresh edt but leave your fingers away from Tommy.....Personally I prefer unique and special edt that leave an impression, an identification -it´s all about what you expect from an edt and what it should be for you ....

very ,very masculine and man-real man!spicy, strong.intense.Full and richflavour: leather and woody notes,tobacco....very sensual....very present and dominant,typical scent of the 80ies-very classical perfume!You won´t forget the smell.....it´s wow!nothing for a boy-it´s a man´s wardrobe!Great scent but not timeless and eternal as Bandit of Robert Piguet-this one is sensual, dark and somehow bad !
If you smell Trussardi everything is obvious and clear:good looking , elegant italian man in his 30ties to forties but Bandit of Robert Piguet-this is forbidden,bad and darkk and on the other side sexy, sensual,passion but be careful-you never now what´s going to happen-be careful....hehehe...

a basket full of apples-not more! that´s it-it reminds me a bit of all these shampoos with the apple smell-bäh...how can donna karan who has done such a great work-for example with unleaded for men and cashmere mist for women-sink so deep and allow to launch such a garbage in her name? Someone should explain this to me?Loss of brain?Very sad.Oh but you can use it as a room spray......not bad.....

Very,very sad that they stopped the production of this really interesting leather scent-a great mixture of really interesting substances specially tobacco and leather but well mixed - a man´s perfume!And such a unique bottle!Dona Karan please relaunch this perfume!By the way delicious one of the last perfumes of Donna Karan is one of the cheapest and worst scents ever made!!!!

Nina Ricci another great french couturier-elegant, classic and decent-this is Signoricci a very nice and warm citrus smell and not harsh as the old Armani and others.A decent and discret edt for a gentleman!And a very nice bottle!

Mont Blanc a very well known company for really beautiful and nice writing stuff launch perfumes-incredible!Stick tto what you have been producing for centuries but leave your fingers away from making perfumes!Cheap, boaring and vulgar scents without character and soul-yes, this Mont-Blanc-and folks on top they produce watches!Mont-Blanc will never and ever become Chanel, Patou.Guerlain,Gres,Givenchy and definitely not Rolex,Patek Philipe or Breguet!!!!!!!!Stick to your pens and pencils!!!!!!!!!!One od the worst scents I ever tasted!!!!!!!!!

warm and fresh but nothing special-boaring!A cheap , everyday scent-very simple.Lanvin launched great perfumes but this one is sad.Oh you may use it to clean the toilet...sorry but such waters are so disappointing .....

I remember being in paris on a school trip....and i bought my first edt and it was lanvin pour homme-decent,warm, with a fresh and clear note-a very nice and loveable scent-Very classy and fine perfume!Hopefully one day they will relaunch it again!

Hubert de Givenchy one of the great , distuinguished and elegant couturiers of all times-have you ever seen what he did for his muse Audrey Hepburn?Okay and his edt reflects all this: classy, elegant, superbe, sublime and sophisticated.It will last forever-another outstanding and intelligent svent for the hall of fame!These were still the times when people were still able to think -launching interesting perfumes you would recognize among thousands because they had class and were unique!And Givenchy for men is a gebntlemen´s cologne-really a great work by Monsieur de Givenchy!!!Yo will never and ever forget this perfume-not like the trash of 2006......

yes indeed-another great, outsatnding perfume!A masculine,intense and virile scent-individual and special.This scent belongs to the time when really good perfumes still were in production:patou pour homme, ivoire of balmain.And Macassar-what a name-woody,spicy, warm and aromatic-all ingredients in the right mixture-Rochas has launched top perfumes as Femme,Mystere Tocade (for women) and moustache-all these perfumes including macassar will survive and have been made for eternity.Macassar is a wonderful perume for a mature and handsome man.Awsome and gorgeous scent!

Yes, Annick goutal has been one of the great parfumeurs of our time-eau de sud is one of the outstanding perfumes she did-classy, sophisticated, to my opinion more suitable to a woman-deligthful,with character!It reminds me of Italy in summer-Annick goutal has perfectly kept the flavours of the sud-light, fresh, intense,longlasting,mostly citrus notes-beautiful!This is a reaaly nice spring and summer edt-decent, sublime and perfectly composed!

not bad but there are so many other perfumes! Again a great marketing campaign, perfect advertising and the whole machinerie starts to work- this is a simple clean and fresh citrus water-totally overrated-if you look for an elegant and classy scent try pour monsieur by chanel-this is definitely better...but if you need to wear a perfume that has been a favourite of Cary Grant and Ingrid Bergman (they say so...)and you need to say stuff like that-then buy it!But if you are self-confident and you are a mature man sure of himself have a look at something special, intelligent and rich-there are so many outstanding and distinguished perfumes!AdP is a nice water of lemon but nothing more-nice bottle and package.I think it is better for a woman!Oh, they did even candles with the flavour...try this first before you waste the money for the edt....

a spicy,fresh,nice and simple edt.Suitable for a man.Convenient at any time.Not a great perfume like JHL but ok.I you look for a good edt, that doesn´t smell as all the edts you may have tested then try tuscany.Do not splash too much-it has power!And noone will complain about it!This edt doen not go on your nerves or on the nerves of others!

^this is patchouly pure-dark and potent patchouly.Take only a few drops-it is very intense.Very well done!Specially in autmn and winter you will enjoy this scent....

yes, another great,great perfume!sexy, sophisticated,elegant and sexy!Yes it may be comparable to Tabac Blonde and Bandit of Robert Piguet-another two outstanding perfumes but Cabochard has it´s own class!So many different notes-an incredible mixture of wonderful ingredients.Well everyone has another skin and it may interact different but Cabochard is hall of fame and a unique and special fragrance for a classy,sexy and charismatic woman!

i must say that it should be forbidden that evry fashion designer launches his perfume-again a very sad and average perfume.....Black?!You don´t know what BLACK is!?Black is Bandit by Robert Piguet-there is this black mystique and dark odeur!But Black of Kenneth cole is a bit Happy of Clinique mixed with a bit 212 etc.Nothing special- as it has been said:mediocre!Why does noone dare to launch a personal and individual perfume he is convinced of and stands befind???Instead we get cheap,simple scents that meet the expectations of the market!Has Mr.Cole ever tasted the perfumes of Balmain,Lucien Lelong,Chanel-these are great scents!Or the unforgettable Schiaprelly or Nina Ricci?Please, be more risky !

Another really great perfume-very distinguished,elegant-for a gentleman,definitely not for a hip-hop boy!Lot´s of different notes-leather,spicy and warm-powerful and potent.Be careful using it-if you take too much it may kill you or cause nauseas!I would use it preferably on formal events, in the evening.But you may use it throughout the day but in small doses.It is a classical scent that will survive forever in the jungle of colognes,scents,waters etc.An outstanding performance of van cleef and Arpels.And as a woman you should try First by van Cleef and Arpels....AWSOME!

after the gorgeous and amazing carolina herrera man this company and I guess it was her daughter launches 212- it is a sad copy of thousands edt you can buy evrywhere-okay the outer appearance, the package and design are nice but the perfume is to me a grat deception-very poor.I expected her to develop again a great scent but 212 is average-freh,clean and similar to the rest.If you look for something different, special, individual then have a look at creed,annick goutal,nicolai or etro.Hopefully Carolina Herrera presents next time a perfume that is worth to buy!

Have you ever seen Carolina Herrera-okay, beautiful, classical, feminine and tasteful lady-and so is this perfume!Tasteful, classical, elegant and special.One of the great perfumes of the 90ties.You knew that Carolina Herrera´s perfume is fracas of robert Piguet-that matches!Carolina Herrera for men is classy, sexy but in small doses! Be careful if not it becomes too intense and sharp!In the right dosage it is fresh and cool-it si warm and cold-the right mixture of all ingredients!

having a view at all the scents launched in the last years i must say that bulgari for men is one of the best but it is absolutely not comparable with the great perfumes of patou, balenciaga, piguet and caron!It is ok-and concerning the positive aspects-they all have been mentionned here: clean, freh, nice etc. buti miss this touch of being something very special and unique-it is ok and nice but it does not stand out.There are perfumes-when you smell them you automatically turn your head around...and wow...so bulgari for men is not such a scent!But compared to all the other stuff....In my opinion Bulgari should stay producing jewels and not perfumes-for century they áre into jewellery and suddenly-oh, let us make evn more money-and hurry up-let´s launch perfumes -no ladies and gentlemen...leave the perfume making to coty, caron,chanel, balenciaga,patou, creed etc. and make nice jewels.....

well this has been so disappointing....such a boaring, feminine and uninteresting perfume!I tried and tried but-no, definitely no-it is a no go!I was expecting a great sexy, special and modern scent-i am still waiting for a perfume launched in this decade i could fall in love with but even prada has broken my heart-well prada has been very progressive and innovative in fashion-always at the edge and risky-but the perfume is nothing special-yes , you can use it to clean whatever or maybe as a room spray...so sad...it is even a woman´s scent-what did she then when she developped prada for her????!!!!Anyway, it is simple and a touch of nothing-you will forget it in some months-this perfume won´t last forever!!!Prada what?who? Oh miuccia what happened?you are such an interesting lady but the perfume is horrible!

this is one of the great, outstanding perfumes for the hall of fame-Very classical, elegant and interesting!Oriental, warm,a bit sweet-it is cinnabar(Estee Lauder,woman)for a man.Please take only a few drops-it is very intense-the less you take the more you will like it...it won´t go on your nerves!It lasts very long.And it is a very nice winter perfume.I even liked the story behind the perfume-estee lauder did this perfume for her beloved husband-very nice bottle and package-very individual and special!!This is not an average, blabla edt you may find one day in a cheap drugstore-no, no this is an outstanding edt for intelligent, classical gentlemen!If you want something very special then go for it but if look for trendy, chic stuff leave this page ! And if you fall in love with this perfume you may like the guerlain scents too.

the first edt i ever used in my life and i still love it although there are more intelligent, decent and interesting perfumes than devin.It is definitely a man´s scent, nothing androgyne or feminine-no this is leather, spicy, deep and powerful.I is a unique and special perfume and one of the great aramis perfumes ever made!Do not take too much - it is you who comes in and it is about you NOT THIS perfume

it is a nice, classical edt and different from the stuff you can buy nowadays but it has a touch from the 70ties-but it has a touch of an older man,being in his 50ties, conservative, a kind of a daddy ...it is still special but is not wow..-there are great scents from the past that will last forever, there are scents that will survive till eternity although they have been launched in the last centuries but not aramis.This edt is ok, it is all right but not the hall of fame!

very disappointing and average-nothing special! This is not like A-men of Mugler, JHL of Estee Lauder,Bandit of RobertPiguet,etc.-no, it is boaring and uninteresting.Instead of wasting lots of dollars for this EdT you may go to the next drugstore and buy a well priced soap that will definitely make you happier!If you like this kind of cologne then please try Eau sauvage of Christian Dior or the Yves Saint Laurent por homme-this is class , good taste and a better choice!

one of the really great perfumes of all centuries:interesting, unforgettable, intelligent and like bandit of robert piguet and tabac blonde of caron-hors concours!Perfumes for individualists, looking for a unique scent with class-cuir de russie is for someone loving leather perfumes but this perfume is so much more!!!you can wear it even as a man but then you have to be a real man!Take only a few drops .....then wait....and you will enter paradise....but be careful-if you go for the type of perfumes that are thrown on the market every week and you may buy for a dollar in all kind of shops then leave it and hurry!Cuir de russie is a very very special fragrance of another time but timeless and if you´re a really classy, elegant and distinguished woman then give it a try-i imagine you, in a classy valentino or oscar de la renta dress, giving me a smile and if i would smell this perfume...i would die....ladies, this is an unforgettable scent but definitely not for everyone.....but if you are the one....then it will be heaven for you!!!!!!

this fragrance is definitely unique, remarkable and hors concours!you won´t forget the person wearing this excellent perfume.....but it won´t work for everyone!This is not a perfume that can be compared to the garbage that is launched nowadays-no, this is really first class and one of the great scents of all centuries!Try it, leave it on your skin and wait, and wait....this is hot, hot and sexy - and dark, very dark!This is mystery, adventure, badness and agressiveness but it may change....If you are a connaisseur and you go for intelligent perfumes then it will be the right choice!You have to be someone special,different....as a woman and a man-specially if you´re a man you should be handsome, virile, dark and with class!
