Not all that bad. Reminds a lot of good old Hugo by Hugo Boss, equally synthetic, however appealing non the less. Longevity is ok and the scent is quite cheap so it's a good bargain. Daily,...

I first tried the aftershave version back in 1991 when it was widely available at every department store. I became a great admirer. Gorgeous scent. Over the years it became hard to find and...

By Night Black by Profumi del Forte, 2009

I'm a huge fan of this line but By Night Black is probably the most disappointing delivery among their range. I'm used to either their thickness (Ambra Mediterranea, Versilia Platinum, Versilia...

I've tried this many times, I never understood why it stands out or sells so much. That bitter orange is repulsive and disgusting. This smells almost as bad as Guerlains Vetiver.

I just went crazy over this weekend and got:

ST Dupont homme (regretted this, not longlasting on me, the freshness is gone fast)

Jazz (i have tried this one a loooong time ago and forgot about it cause i used more live jazz)

boucheron man (i can't believe i haven't tried this one before! it's been the best in a while, a true revelation and it smells amazing on me)

Lanvin L'homme (good but very forgettable)

Boss Elements (again, i have used boss elements aqua, wich i don't think ti's earth-shattering)

Eau de Cartier (repeat!)

Givenchy's Phi (finally after avoiding this one cause i'm not too much of a vanilla fan for years, i gave it a go and boy am I Happy!!)

armani He (i have EA night He, it's still my favorite of this line)

Oscar de la renta pour lui ('81)

Swiss Army for men (yuck! never again...)

Versace's Balck Jeans for men (wow! i had this a loong time ago and i'm happy i got it again it's so good)

there!

I just got my first bottle of eau de cartier concentree, I don't really see how this can be considered unisex but whatever.
