i bought 212 and it has been so far my worst buy. its a really boring generic fresh scent, but thats not my issue with it. my main issue with it is its similarly priced with other frags that are much better scents. this stuff is priced at $40 for a 1.7oz when it should be priced with stuff more like Curve, Tommy etc...ysl live jazz blows this garbage out the water for a summer scent and it can be found for half the price...

least they could have done is be a little more creative with the bottle instead of making it look like a cheap deodorant stick.

Agreed. I also bought 212 Men recently, and it's incredibly generic and linear. It just smells like sharp acidic citrus to me. I was excited about the ginger note, as I love ginger (Gucci Envy, Kenzo Tokyo), but I could barely detect it here.
