First Instinct Together Eau de Toilette For Him

Abercrombie & Fitch First Instinct Together Men EDT opens with a strong projection of very sweet, fruity, citrusy, and light floral accords. The opening is delicious, very sharp, sour, fresh, and very pleasant. The intense green apple is prominent, delectable, this note is very intense. Very close is the pineapple, also a very tasty note, sour and sweet. One or two steps behind at the lavender, orange blossom, and cardamom. The lavender and orange blossom introduce a unisex, clean, and fresh floral note, not as prominent as the fruits but noticeable, and it provides a light floral accord to the fragrance giving it a spring vibe. The cardamom is as noticeable as the floral notes, the cardamon comes across as a sweet, resinous, spicy, and slightly bitter note. Creating a projecting, sharpening, and fresh woody background are the sandalwood, musk, and cedar. The sandalwood is a sweet touch; however, the musk and cedar are much more noticeable. The musk is an enhancing and projecting accord, it supports the fruity notes making them feel sharp, a slightly lemony musk, inoffensive but projecting. Finally, the cedar adds its fresh woody touch which makes the fragrance fresh and vibrant. The fragrance has a very little opening to dry down changes, the only subtle change is the projection moving down from strong to moderate. Once Abercrombie & Fitch First Instinct Together Men EDT has reached its full dry down, it can be summarized as a moderate projection, sweet, fruity, apple, pineapple, floral, lavender, orange blossom, musk, and woody fragrance with spicy accords. The fragrance feels blue, casual, clean, comforting, delectable, delicious, diurnal, energizing, fresh, fruity, inviting, moderate-quality, mild, modern, musky (sour), natural, nicely-blended, playful, pure, refreshing, rich, sharp, short-lived, sour, sparkly, sporty, sweet, unisex, versatile, wild, woody, young, zesty, and very pleasant.

A good clean, fresh with some sweetness that combines a blue, aromatic and aquatic note proportions. It has a similar vibe with most of the scents mentioned below but, whomever says that it's identical to Invictus Aqua '16 or '18, YSL Y edt, edp or fraiche and the rest mentioned are a bit off. True, it has elements from them but, it goes it's own route especially with the addition of lavender to give it that cleanness and pineapple leaf combined with the orange blossom to give it that fruity sweetness. That slight sweetness stays for most of the scents duration with a light woods from the cedar and musk to round it off. Duration is not its strong point so, give yourself a few extra sprays. That's an easy fix for those that complain about performance issues that this juice has. It smells good, won't offend a soul and it's dirt cheap. What else do you want? I don't understand reviewers that enjoy shitting on a fragrance for other than their own personal satisfaction because it's another "blu & semi-aquatic generic scent" in the crowded sea of mass appealing scent creations. WHO CARES!?!? To those that just want to smell good on a budget it's a nice acquisition hands down. To the fragrance snobs or self proclaimed scent elitists stick with the world renown "STFU" protocol. Don't know what it is, just Google it. Please, just stop ruining it for the rest of us "common folk".......

Bought this after seeing TLTG talk about it. Got it really cheap 2nd hand from a associate. Def glad I did. Fresh spray smells a bit fruity but then the bottom/base comes out and maintains solid after that which Im satisified it does. Not a strong performer or room clearer. Another shock scent that smells one way before spraying out of the atomizer than the base really takes over after spraying. Almost had me calling this one a bogey until it dried down after 5-10 minutes...totally changed my mind. Someone said something about the grape note in this, now that I read that I cant get that scent out of my mind when sampling this....although its blended with the rest of the notes descent..Can smell this grapey-ness right off the atomizer. Very strange but luckily dies down after spraying. Up close this lasts very long, can smell on myself hours later. projection distance dies down after 2-3 hours. After 1st spray(s) its pretty strong projection for a little while 20-30 minutes. If you see this cheap buy it and try it out its very interesting and won't let you down. Now I need to try out the blue version.

A&F First Instinct Together feels like a younger, sweeter take on Invictus, bright and easy in a way that only summer scents can be. It makes me want to spray it over a sleeveless shirt and spend the whole day at an outdoor mall with the boys, walking around with no plans, talking about girls, checking out stores we cannot afford. A few hours in, we run into a group of girls we know, and I say what’s up to the one I like with a big smile. She leans in a little and says, “Wow, you smell so good,” dragging it out just enough to make the moment stick. I keep it cool, flirt a bit, but nothing serious since one of my friends likes her too. We eventually end up at the food court, pooling our cash for a plate of Panda Express, until my mom calls and tells me to wait by Barnes & Noble for a ride home. This is the kind of scent that takes me straight back to high school, when summer felt endless and I really thought I would be young forever.

I just want to say, this is not redundant to have if you already have Rasasi Hawas or Invictus Aqua 2016, I can't speak for the 2018 Invictus Aqua. In actual wearing of these fragrances, they all stand apart from eachother and in the air they all smell very different from eachother. FI Together is a lot more pineapple forward and at a distance more fruity. I love Hawas to death, but it is a much creamier sandlewood and thicker scent trail. The focus on FI Together is fruity, and sweet, and it dries to a transparent cedar, far less sandlewood. I also have Armaf Rixos and Oros, both are Invictus DNA scents, but wildly different again in actual wearing. I think this is easy to like and you'll probably love it, but if you don't want another Invictus type scent, than definitely get something else.

At Ross, they had original, extreme, and blue but I only wanted this. I had to go to 5 different locations to finally find it. $20 for 3.4oz. I love Invictus style scents and have full bottles of Legend Spirit, Wanted, Halloween Man Hero, King of Seduction, Sunrise Urban Ice, Armaf El Cielo, & Aura. This starts off like Aura but dries down slightly more fruity. It's sweet, fruity, tropical, and musky all at the same time. I love it! I had a decant of Hawas and much prefer this. Hawas has a spicy powdery smell that I'm not fond of and it's also not worth the price nowadays either. This has none of that and it's great. 4-5 sprays lasts me about 4-6 hours

This cologne is freaking amazing! I've seen this cologne every single time I've gone to Marshals, but never bought it because I was unaware that there were great quality "cheapies" out there. Well, I went to Marshals two days ago and purchased a 3.4 oz bottle for $25 after seeing all of the great reviews on here. My girl loves it, and I received two compliments within the same day. I couldn't say if this compares to Invictus as others say, since I haven't had the chance to try it. I can say it smells pleasingly fruity and fresh. The three scents I pick up the most are the apple, pineapple, and sandalwood. I give this scent a 10/10.

This is amazing! I love the smell of this a lot! Other people say this is their favorite out of the ones I spray on myself! It also has decent longevity and sillage! The price is also really good! Overall, I would rate this 9/10. This might not be my favorite smell from Abercrombie and Fitch's First Instinct line (Thanks Blue) but this is very close to being the best and it also has better performance. I would recommend this to someone youthful who wants something to wear casually and to the gym!

To me this fragrance smells like Invictus Aqua with a touch of Y EDP. This fragrance has a great fruity opening. To me the apple in this smells similar to the apple in Y EDP. This is a fresh, musky, fruity fragrance. This scent is very inoffensive and will gather compliments easily. This lasts slightly over 6 hours on my skin and projects for the first hour. This is an amazing affordable fragrance! I prefer First Instinct Together over the original First Instinct I rate this scent 9/10!

This was a STEAL at Marshall's. I've been in the market and have been wearing samples for both YSL Y EDP and Invictus Aqua, saw this one at on the rack and looked it up on here. The second I saw that it was close to those, it was a no brainer. I'd say it smells 90% to Invictus, 80% to YSL Y EDP (no ginger here). Great to add to your warm weather rotation, the sweetness could make it work in the cold as well.

I love love love this one. It smells super sweet but not cloying. Its just made right for me. Yeah it leans more towards to younger crowd but who cares? If you like it then just wear it. If you like Invictus, then look no further. $20 Invictus right here. Lacks in longevity though but you can over spray and it will last for 8+ hrs (indoor). It's a compliment getter for sure. 8.5/10.

I bought this cologne 3 times in the past year. One for myself and two as gifts. This has to be one of the best colognes at the price point of ~$20. If you want an inexpensive fruity bomb fragrance that is blind buy safe, this is the one. I think it is a younger person's fragrance for sure, but regardless it is a great crowd pleaser. I picked it up at my local Ross!

Love love LOVE this scent. It’s definitely sweet but that is my preference when it comes to freshies! Super uplifting and mood changing for me. I wear this mostly to the gym but will occasional use it as my scent of the day. Picked up a 100 ml for $20 at my local Ross and next time I see it (which isn’t often) I will snag another for that price without thinking.

Hell of a banger for hot days, or even exercising in general. 20 bucks for 100ml of this, or truly any of the other First Instinct fragrances, is such a steal (at Ross only - online, much more expensive already). This feels like a mixture between Invictus Aqua 2018 and First Instinct like it said below. Overspray and have fun, this is amazing!

Fantastic fragrance. Definitely smells like an inbetween of invictus and something like an acqua di gio, very strong water scents and pleasant slightly sweet freshness follows. If you're looking for a budget spring/summer fragrance this is the one, it performs well on my awfully dry skin and still smells strong after multiple hours.

I tell myself that I'm "not the type of person" to like such a youthful and playful fragrance. But I'll be damned if I don't absolutely love the fresh juicy fruitiness of this whenever I reach for it (which seems to be increasingly often these days). It's currently my go-to gym scent, and it works great for that.

People can complain on this all they want but it's a huge win for me. I no longer have to buy Invictus legend, aqua, etc. I no longer have to buy YSL Y, Y Live etc. It's like they screwed, had a baby and created this frag. Saved me a ton of money and it's a great price. Performance is about the same even ;)

I can't stop smelling this fragrance it's like YSL Y it just sucks you in. Personally I feel it has that magnetism of YSL Y but then the Aqua sweetness of Invictus Aqua mixed with Cool Water Wave. I wish I would've found this sooner and bought 30 bottles absolutely in love with fragrance till the day I die!

I love this. In fact, I love this whole line. Never smelled Invictus Aqua, but I have Invictus, and this smells very close, but I think this one's better. Perfect for warm weather and sunny days. Spray heavy so others can enjoy the goodness.

Batch 08/22 Yes it is synthetic but still so awesome. Sweet and fresh same time. It projects loud for first hour and settles then down little bit. Longevity pretty good 6 hours 4-5 sprays. Highly recommend this cheapie for spring and 🌞
