Authentic Night Homme

This is problematic. Why? Well - I’m 36 years old. And while Abercrombie will always have a nostalgic spot all to itself within the deepest corner of my heart, we parted ways at my high school graduation in 2002. So besides feeling a little too old to wear this, it’s also problematic because I really enjoy it. I realize I brought this on myself. Ok yea. It’s super sweet. Ultra male type sweet. But there’s something weird beneath the sweetness that’s extremely alluring. Almost as if Fierce DNA is hiding in there - waiting to sneak out and release rugged sex on everyone. For the record, fierce came out while I was still in college - so I’m allowed to talk about it. Nevermind the fact I was on the 5 year bachelors program ;) Alright. Time to get serious. This stuff is really nice - forget the name - forget your pre existing bias or hatred - solely based on the smell, it’s fantastic. Yes, there is a “fierce undertone” - that’s a fact. However - this scent is about Tonka and lavender. With that said - the fierce undertone is what makes it so intriguing. If this were just a sweet Tonka and lavender scent, it would be trash. I’ll wear it. And when people ask me what it is? Well it’s guerlain, of course. 30 bucks on eBay for 100ML - full presentation (which is nicer than most scents you can get from the Macy’s counter) I’m all in on this one. Nearly guaranteed to triple in price over the next few years - like most Abercrombie scents do, so don’t wait too long.

A mouthwatering, spicy, leathery, woody, fresh, and edible scent that goes playful and classy at the same time. Totally in line with the brand and very modern smelling. The night vibe is present since it goes sweet. Well blended and balanced. Reminds me instantly of the pre-reformulated Ultra Male that had strong leather and juicy fruits. But it does it’s own thing and is classier and softer than any Gaultier. Also a little Armani Stronger with you. I also am thinking about Eros (from the tonka and vanilla) and Armani Code Absolu (from the sweet apple with leather). Not as strong as these other fragrances, this is a fresh and pretty safe take on the modern fall scent for nightwear. Sillage is good, it wants to escape my skin and mingle. Longevity is not the beast you want it to be. A sweet and leathery scent profile should have been a little more amped up for night wear.. The bottle is 10/10. Beautiful, classy and dark and mysterious like the scent. Also I like that they did a transparent lid, sort of a reference to being authentic and not hiding anything ;) I’m 36 and I don’t care about wearing teen scents. However, I think this smell is for a grown man with taste. I find it pretty mature for an A&F scent. No compliments yet but these times you hardly can get compliments.

Been wanting this one for a while, glad I waited until I found it shopping around because it’s not worth the inflated prices it was first going for. Not a bad fragrance by any means, will definitely get some use during these colder months. I don’t really smell any of the comparisons listed above *directly* but this definitely flows in the same direction - sweet night out/possibly date night fragrance. Has a bit of Brigit fruitiness to it too, which I’m guessing is the rhubarb and that makes it a little different than the rest. Presentation is solid, strong magnetic cap with a faux leather embossed label, nice gradient bottle that really coincides with the fragrance. Paid $30 for a 50ML and I’m completely ok with that. Decent fragrance IF you like the style. PS- really annoying when people hate on fragrances without any reason whatsoever. Not helpful...at all. If you feel THAT strongly about it, maybe you should have some sort of argument for the *don't buy* that will help like-minded would-be purchasers. jMO

I had to register to point out that this has nothing to do with Ultra Male (which I own) and has everything to do with Fierce (which I owned). Bought my 3.4 bottle from eBay for 38 bucks and I tried it arrived yesterday. So this is just like Fierce but a bit darker/sour. I will say that it projects well and has a sillage of about 2-4 feet. I used it last night at 9PM after gym in my inner elbow (2 sprays) to test it, then I took a shower about an hour and a half after. At that point I could still perceive the Fierce aroma until I went to sleep an hour later. Right now, it is 1 PM and there is a noticeable sweet fragrance that is on the skin of my inner elbow that doesn't project but it is so good when I bring my nose to that spot. So overall I can say I love this one. It is a good release by A&F and I will say it may please the crowd that misses the original (before reformulation) Fierce or any new comers that would like to try what Fierce used to be like.

Gosh, this is good! Percival/Fierce/Montblanc and BR540. Who's the perfumer? We need to know because it might be an idea checking out his/her other work. Forget the price - it's an absolute steal. This is the kind of stuff you'll find in handsome niche bottles that sell for $250. For me, Authentic Night retains most of the union of the fragrances mentioned above throughout the wear, which lasts an excellent 10 hours - longevity is no issue on me. By the way, Authentic Night does come in an attractive bottle - presentation is quality. Authentic Night is an addictive masculine fragrance that works year round, in all situations. It is different, yet familiar. This just works. In some way I'm fine with this fragrance not being hyped. We'll keep its splendour to ourselves😉

Pleasantly surprised by this one. I had never come across it before but spotted it at a discounter for a great price and decided to blind buy. I had high expectations based on the reviews, and those expectations were met or even exceeded. It has a strong Fierce DNA as its backbone, unmistakable from the first spray. Over that familiar base is a refined, sweeter layer that blends gourmand, woody, and amber accords. Projection and longevity are average. I would not call it either an easy or a challenging wear, but it feels especially well suited for fall or cold. Honestly, it seems like it should have been released as a Fierce flanker. It captures the essence of the original far better than any of the official flankers such as Fierce Night or Fierce Confidence.

This is a great fragrance from A&F. Best way to put it is it smells like fierce and baccarat rouge 540 fused together and you get authentic night. This DOES NOT smell anything like JPG Ultra Male, almost didn't buy it because of the people voting for the similarity, but glad I ignored them because this is a banger. If you like either one of the fragrances I said this smells like then you will really enjoy this fragrance. Yes it has sweetness but can easily be worn year round and in high heat. Overall authentic night is a very solid fragrance and I would recommend you to purchase it if you can find it for a decent price. I give authentic night a 9/10

I bought this from a discounter and couldn't be happier with what I got for only $27 USD. Don't get it twisted, this is Fierce+Baccarat Rouge, I'd say 60 and 40% respectively. In other words, this smells like a layering of Fierce and Baccarat Rouge that works great for dates at night, or even in cool weather during the day. It's sexy and yet, funny like the original Fierce, but with a twist that will always work. Hidden gem. Performance is lackluster, specially projection wise, but due to its price, applying it consistently won't be a problem at all

This is not about vanilla. Its about fruits and tonka imo. And yes, one can definitely smell some fierce in this. It is marvellous, just way better and more pleasing than most releases with 5x price tag. I get different impressions at different moments smelling this, meaning it is a bit complex for what is a kind of joyful juvenile, spray and go type frag. But lemme say; it is very good at its worst and perfect balanced at its best. I love this fragrance.

Absolutely love this stuff. I originally got a sample of this, and I loved it. I have sampled Baccarat Rouge 540 a couple of times, and I would say it's about 95% similar. The big downside of this is the performance, it lasts 4-6 hours on my skin with moderate projection, it's not bad in performance, it's just not really good either. But you can just overspray this, as it's quite cheap. I love this stuff, and would definitely recommend it.

This is a very nice scent, very unique, perfect for someone in high school. Perfect for informal nights and evenings. My only complaint is that it doesn't last long, on my skin it lasts around 3 hours before turning into a skin scent. But very nice, very sexy, very bold scent. It just has this one note that is just so unique and pleasant. Amazing cheapie.

Instant Classic! What a perfect scent! Surprised how good it is! it's kinda mix between cold/warm notes and they made it so good! addictive stuff. it's kinda like Caramel meets citrus notes but both very unique.. very delicious but not clingy a must try imo. p.s. this has nothing in common with "Legend Montblanc" nor "Fierce Abercrombie & Fitch"

Very nice scent the longevity on this one is crazy 10h+ on skin. But here’s the best part – the compliments. Seriously, every time I wear this, I get so many compliments from the ladies. They love it! It’s perfect for a night out, whether you’re hitting up a bar, going on a date, or just hanging out with friends.

This one is really good. I can see the comparisons to BR540 but it's definitely not as sweet. Some sweetness for sure but such a pleasant smell. If you come across this at the rack stores I highly recommend. Musk, vanilla, some leathery florals.. Really good cheaper pick. Can't go wrong with this one.

This strongly reminds me of Tom Ford Fucking Fabulous, but less sweet and less deep. It shares very similar notes such as the tonka bean, leather, clary sage and lavander so I would suggest that is where the resemblance comes from. Overall its very decent and very nice. The presentation is amazing.

It’ll have people wanting you to bend them into a pretzel. It smells a bit like cloud but it’s much stronger and has a bit more of a fresh edge. It’s still extremely sweet, almost cotton candy sweet. It’s extremely addictive and lasts days on clothing. It’s dirt cheap. Need I say more?

This is a sweet fragrance for night outs , clubbing etc. I smell a mix of tonka and vanilla along with some lavender. It smells somewhat similar JPG le male but more sweet. Nothing groundbreaking but not bad either. Overall its a sweet fragrance made for mass appeal and compliments.

A & F Fierce and JPG Ultra Male or Polo Red. That's it. Nightflight? Not really...I can see someone coming to that conclusion but no. TF F*king Fabulous? Again not really. If you have smelled Fierce and Ultra Male you will pick it up right away here. It is a 50/50 mix.

This is a really good fragrance overall and good bang for buck. Has really good silage first couple of hours and tapers off to a soft and sweet Fierce. This is on par with Ultra Male in terms of likability. Sprayer is great and has magnetic cap.

Strong Everyone in the car I entered noticed it and complimented it. Maybe because it was weird and they complimented it because I applied too much, in a way to ease the tension. Or it was simply a good fragrance. However, I love it.
