baldessarini or lanvin l'homme sport

which one do u recommend for a 30 y.o man? it'll most likely be a blind-buy and i'm looking for a casual spring/summer scent. i've read that lanvin is similar to versace pour homme which is a favorite of mine and which i didn't purchase again after a 50 ml coz of its terrible longevity on my skin.

thanks in advance.

p.s : i've seen a concentrate cologne version of baldessarini apart from the regular one (cologne spray), they're almost at the same price (42 usd). which one do u recommend between these two?

I used to think that Baldessarini is higher quality scent but no - Lanvin Sport proved to be dead ringer with vastly superior longevity and sillage. To be honest I would be careful with the application. Hooray for Rafael.

What didn't you like about it? I think it's a decent fragrance for the price.

Lanvin L'Homme Sport is an awesome fragrance with nuclear projection.

I bought Lanvin L'Homme Sport after having worn Baldessarini Concentree for quite some time. I have to say I was slightly disappointed. It might be well worth it price wise but it is definitively far less balanced and complex.

well, first of all it's too perfume-y, too aromatic for my taste. secondly an odor in heart notes (probably the mixture of lavender&citrus) disturbs me. finally, i know it's a cheapy and i don't expect a wonder but it smells to me as cheap as it really is.
