Pros & Cons

  • ✅ This stuff is fantastic. Great spring and summer staple. Classy gentlemen fragrance with great citrus notes. Nice woody dry down.
  • ✅ I love it, it smells amazing. It lasts around 4-6h on me, projection is not that bad. It's a type of fragrance you'd smell on a bit older man basically, very masculine sour lemon note.
  • ✅ A classic citrus forward scent that drys down to a soapy clean gentlemen type scent. It's good for what it is, but the performance is relatively poor. There's better out there of this genre, but it's an easy wear and enjoyable when it's around.
  • ❌ I get a toned down Paco Rabanne Pour Homme with a blast of citrus. I’ve pulled compliments with this fragrance, but I need to spray a liberal amount on my skin because the longevity and sillage on me is moderate.
  • ❌ This is, without a doubt, my favourite summer scent I've found so far. ... Sadly, BV discontinued all of their fragrances in Australia and I haven't been able to get another bottle very easily.
  • ❌ The opening is very bright, sharp, almost bitter citrus and wood that I find quite invigorating. Not long after application I do get whiffs of what I describe as licorice, which I am not a fan of.
