Un Jardin Sur Le Nil, an exquisite creation by Hermès, is inspired by the lush and vibrant gardens along the Nile River. Crafted by master perfumer Jean-Claude Ellena, this fragrance is part of the renowned Jardin series, celebrated for its ability to capture the...

Azzaro Sport is a cheap scent that retails mostly at tax-free stores at airports which is where I bought my bottle. If you’re a casual shopper who just wants to smell nice at an affordable price you will like this one. Just the name Sport is one of the most...

F by Ferragamo Black, or Ferragamo F Black as it is more commonly called, is a very pleasant throwback to the time before blue fragrances. It is completely at home at the office or on a date. Also, it’s quite cheap if you can still find it. I bought my bottle at...

Joop Homme Wild is a sweet and boozy flanker to the original Joop Homme, which is already sweet enough so this one mainly ads the booze. In this blog I’ll also draw some links with Maison Martin Margiela’s Jazz Club which was done by the same perfumer and...

I like a lot of the fragrances in the David Beckham line. Most of them punch way above their weight for the price that you pay for them. I’ve never actually seen a full-priced bottle of a David Beckham fragrance. And David Beckham Homme is no exception. It is...

Does anybody actually know how many flankers Davidoff Cool Water has had over the years? Anyway, here’s another one: Cool Water Aquaman Collector Edition. What can I say that hasn’t been said about the original Cool Water already? It was released more than...

Just like Calvin Klein with CK One and Davidoff with Cool Water a new yearly limited edition flanker is released by Dolce & Gabanna in the Light Blue line of fragrances. The 2020 edition is Light Blue Love is Love. A sweet, creamy, and artificial-smelling version...

You can’t possibly wear this as a personal scent. What were these people thinking when they made it? Actually I know what they were thinking, they were trying to recreate the smell of the International Space Station. Now I’ve never been to the International Space...

I’ve never rated the Gucci Guilty line of fragrances very highly. To me it’s a line of generic fresh fragrances with few redeeming qualities. Gucci Guilty Black is especially atrocious in my opinion. But I think Gucci Guilty Absolute is an amazing fragrance! This...

Do you love gardening in the rain? The scent of wet leaves and soil? Then you will love the smell of Montale Patchouli Leaves. To me Montale Patchouli Leaves smells like a deconstructed cousin of Mugler A*Men. That might seem weird, but patchouli can smell like...
To me, Azzaro PH is EASILY one of the greatest masculine fougeres ever created. BTW don't waste your time reviewing…
Cool review
I think joop fragrances are not just lovely but can't be beaten for value..have them all
I don't have this particular Montale. But I own 2 others. They are absolutely "Beast Mode". In a good way!…
In all honesty, I've mellowed a bit on this fragrance. It's still not good and I wouldn't advise anyone to…
