Oh good lord... How could I have skipped this frag for this long? I swear, I'm gonna bathe in this!!!

That wonderful iris and tobacco... It's like a smooth blend of Dolce & Gabbana PH, Boss #6, Polo Blue and Kouros Sport...

I love it as well, but i have to disagree on the "everykind of weather" point. Its so potent that hot sun makes it revoltingly syrupy on me.

i know what you mean by that cause it becomes very sweet on me on hot weather too, but i it's one of the few sweet-sweet drydowns that i can handle and love to wear. I also forgot to mention that i don't find it particularly fresh at the top notes, i find them a bit creamy, but still i love it!

the Dreamer a thumbs up? uhh no .. by the time one gets to its decent basenotes, the top and the middle notes have ruined things far too much.

Nope. The basenotes show up in about 40 minutes. That is just when I'm pulling in to the office!

I like it a lot, it's very smooth and sexy. Sometimes I just like sniffing on the bottle. It has also great longetivity, lasts all night long!!

I prefer it for evening wear, clubbing, party ...

Get it!!

awww, sorry to hear that, but on me the dreamer isn't finish after the top and middle notes. It's still evolving on me and its great and that's where I like the dreamer in that late middle to bottom notes.

I'm head over heals for the dreamer, I love wearing it to business meetings. I find it hard to imagine someone finding this unpleasant or off putting.

it's true you gotta let it dry down a little you know, it's powerful stuff at first, but the smooth subtleness that follows is when the dreamer shines.

What can it be compared to? Many reviews don't say what other fragrances are like it? Is it like A*Men, or Rochas Man, or Pi, Burberry London, or something else?

I enjoy it. Bought two bottles when talks of it being discontinued were occurring. That said, I have an extra bottle if anyone is interested.

Ordered a bottle a few weeks ago from CVS during a nice sale...still waiting to receive it to find out what all the hype is about (and I do enjoy both D&G and Dior Homme)...

The opening can be harsh. The middle note is where it starts to get good.

Unfortunately, the Dreamer does not project on my skin past the opening note. I have to sniff my forearm to smell the middle and the basenote, but boy does it smell good. It is synthetic, but in a good way. And it is unique, there is nothing quite like it out there.

Anyone know if this was ever reformulated? I know they changed the box a few years back. I only have a new box version, and it swear it doesnt last for more than a couple hours tops.

I can't remember how long it used to last when i had my old bottle years ago. But everyone is touting the longevity as being great.
