Artisan by John Varvatos, 2009

I am seeing a lot of "orange" scent comments, but to me, I smell a lot of Iris scent in it?

It actually starts off with a boozy, almost rum-like scent as you put it on. But that dries down to the most austere leather-and-smoky-vetiver I have ever smelled. I would swear there's a note of...

Love this scent! Great for summer, better for day, but good for night as well. I’ve worn it for 10 years and never had it go bad. I would say it is more masculine, clean and almost classic. I...

Pour Homme is very pleasant scent that once you apply, you have the clean and fresh showered feeling. I am a big fan of Salvatore Ferragamo fragrances and have many to chose from. Free Time has...

I absolutely LOVE this fragrance! It's not heavy, and is more of a natural soap smell than an actual eau de parfum smell. If they bottled a bar of Ivory soap this would be it. I live in an...

Hello everyone,

I'm new into fragrances however after reviews on base notes I decided to get La Nuit De L'homme and loved it. For the first month I could not stop sniffing myself, I loved La Nuit's scent, projection and longevity. I'm in college and I need a new signature scent. Fragrances that I have and like are Acqua di Gio, Gucci by Gucci, La Nuit De L'homme, and Arancia di Capri. Two fragrances that I haven't enjoyed as much are Pure Havane and Midnight in Paris. Cheers!

Terre d'Hermes by Hermes - The opening of this very unique fragrance treats one to a mild splatter of sparkling, dry grapefruit and orange, with a metallic, clean flavor lightly dancing in that citrus duet. This wonderful opening expertly transitions into its evocative heart, where a slightly peppery and arid cedar, with a wiff of pachouli, and a flickering of something floral begins to simmer. This earthy woodiness is masterfully blended with the warm sweetness of benzoin, and flashes of bitterness from the vetiver, to form its satisfying, outdoorsy base. This sophisticated and distinctive fragrance should be a welcomed addition to one's repertoire. It's an all-season EDT, and has excellent projection and longevity.
