Spirit for Men

A nice cheapie! A smokey, slightly-sweet, spicy, green smell. To me, it smell like a flanker of the original Antonio Banderas. As if the green fir note made smokier & spicier with incense & cinnamon. I guess the green here comes from patchouli. Nonetheless, the green note disappears after the opening, you're left with a this charming smokey spicy smell of cinnamon & incense. It's a very light smell, very inoffensive despite being a spicy smell in essence. It's much milder than a lot of the sporty fragrances in the market. Performance-wise, the smell has a soft sillage. It's a skin scent, think D&G The One EDT, with a poor longevity of ~3 hours only! It's good that given the cheap price & the how mild it is, you can spray as much as you want. The bottle is amazing, too. The deep red with smooth sides is a beauty. Overall, a very good scent with very poor performance, a decent release from Antonio nonetheless.

The best inexpensive fragrance for men (and one of the best fragrances ever). Love it! The pyramid doesn't do it much justice and doesn't convey the real character of the scent. I don't find it particularly balsamic or spicy, and I hate incense in perfumes. Spirit is a well-blended masculine scent suitable for day and night, wearable in any season. It's neither too sweet, nor too fresh. It doesn't give off that "generic" vibe, like many cheap (and even many expensive) colognes do. On the contrary, it's a very distinctive scent. It smells very alluring and much more expensive than it is. I remember it being a big hit among young men when it was just released. And many girls loved it too. Now it's kinda forgotten, but true fans will never forget it :D

My husband got this as a gift and it is nice but too light and kinda blah on him however I love wearing this.. Soft but sweet, smokey and spicy. I'm not great at individual notes but I can detect the amber and cinnamon easily with the neroli, frankincense and a touch of patchouli backing them up.. Warm and comforting, I actually prefer this to the woman's version which I also have. Throw is low at skin to a couple inches only and lasts 4 hours on me. Easily passes as a woman's scent

This was my first ever purchase. And boy was it a good one! If this same DNA were to be remade, and had better performance, it would be a huge hit. I really think Ant should call the shot and remake this masterpiece, maybe pump it up a bit! Sweet with just a touch of spice, warm enough to get the blood pumping!

Love this one on my husband. This one gets me hot and bothered. guys, it has that affect on the ladies . make it a staple in your cologne wearing repertoir. Great for evening and date nights

Warm and sweet scent-very good and for the price you can't go wrong. It can be a good alternative to 1million or blackXS-you may find that this smells even better.

Spirit for men is another superb creation by the great Pierre Wargnye,earthy,smokey and classy!Sadly it performs pretty bad.....No similarities with One Million.

I really love this one. spices, cinnamon, and more. It's got a very 90's vibe to it but in a very good way.

Biraz sentetik ama çok güzel bir koku

So, I was a little let down by this one... I remembered wearing this right after graduating high school and thinking it was an AWESOME scent. This was, to me then, what Nuit d'Issey is to me now. A little mature for me at the time, but I wore it daily none the less. After buying a new bottle, I can't help but think - wasn't this much stronger back then?? There's a chance that I got a counterfeit or an extremely old bottle, as I bought this on eBay for $9 for a 1.7oz bottle and there was no batch code to be found on it - or a box for that matter. As for the smell: Bleu De Chanel's incense meets 1 Million's cinnamon, with a romantic, resinous vibe. It's a shame how this smells today, a watered down memory of what it once was. Wearing this today, it was nice and pleasant albeit a bit dark and hard to put my finger on the notes - even after applying more than a dozen sprays. Projection was minimal at best, but again, very pleasant none the less. I just wish it were stronger and brighter like I remember it being when it first came out... But that's okay, I've got Nuit d'Issey now... :)

Another cologne from Antonio Banderas’ brand that I've worn and approve. In this case, it is one of the few perfumes of the brand not to suffer prejudice because of the general public. This product has a very good fragrance and it is worth remembering that it was the winner of 2 categories of the 2005 Fifi Awards (maximum award for the world of perfumery). The categories in question were: Best packaging of popular appeal and Male fragrance of the year of popular appeal. The fragrance of Spirit for Men is oriental and rich in warmer notes of cinnamon, amber, neroli, and patchouli. It also contains bergamot, musk, frankincense, and vanilla. In my opinion, Spirit for Men is a very good perfume for colder days, evening events and romantic encounters where the projection does not have to be huge, but the lasting is essential. The result is delicious and, like most fragrances of the brand, the cost is not high.

This EDT pleasantly surprised me. It has nearly instant entry notes a touch of citrus and energizing green wood, the middle notes are wonderful, a mixture of wood and hints of oriental spices realemnte transport you to the Arab world (if I may say I've never been to Saudi Arabia but I imagine that the sheikhs should smell this) a blend of spicy woods without losing the touch of incense and musk, a really fine blend. The base notes are a little more fresh woods and musk smell fades. In general, the accessibility of this fragrance strikes me, has very good quality and is comfortable, gives a sense of authority. I obviously think it works well in cold weather, the age range recoendaria serious for men from 30 years in younger men loses its seductive and only shows its imposing appearance and business. It stays on my skin for about 8 hours. Highly recommended who adore oriental fragrance.

I would class this as a unisex fragrance. It is a warm oriental scent, not particularly strong or long-lasting but I like it all the same. Sometimes it is good to wear things like this without worrying about if it is too strong or not. This is a good safe inoffensive winter/Fall scent, due to the warmth of this I would find it very attractive on a woman despite being classed as a male fragrance. It is more of a close to the skin scent so would be nice to wear when spending time with your significant other. The bottle is nice and simplistic and the spray is quite strong, you can go a bit heavier in application with this without fear. I got a 100ml EDT for a really good price, despite the medium longevity and projection I still think it's great value. Good Stuff :)

This is by far the weakest cold weather scent i've come across. I always double the amount of sprays with this one, but it's still way weaker than more expensive scents. Price and strength do not always go hand in hand, but they do in many cases and Spirit by AB is one of them. The scent is good though. I get Incense, red berries, cinnamon, a little bit leather... Masculine powdery red steam. Nice. Perfect for those days you are not in the mood for a heavy scent, but still wanna wear fragrance during the cold months

It does smell very nice, typically oriental. It does smell of cinnamon, but its scent is subdued, not full blown. It is very soft. Silage, though, is none, I find this scent too weak. It is not very original either, since there are dozens of oriental fragrances for men with this type of scent, very trendy these days. Well, I do like the scent of cinnamon. Longevity is not that good either, but that is probably to do wioth the scent's weak intensity.

God I love the cinnamon in this one. The best cinnamon note I have encountered in a fragrance is in Perry Ellis M. This one is a close second. The incense is also very soft and pleasant in Spirit. The citrus notes are very cherrylike. This is a very versatile fragrance. Can be used in all seasons, day or night. Will never let you down. Sillage is above average. And of course the price is very good for a fragrance of this calibre. Recommended.

Wasn't really expecting too much from this, but pleasantly surprized, Its clearly aimed at Paco Robanne Million. And its success. I really like it. The cinnamon isnt to sweet. The mix of cinnamon and musk produce an amost damask rose quality. Its early days, but so far I'm loving this. Its worth a go as its so cheap.

I’ve had this bottle for awhile. I’ve always enjoyed the smell but have found the performance a bit lacking. This only lasted a few hours for me today with 3 sprays. Has a lovely sweet character to it with warm spicy notes. Cinnamon maybe but seems subtle. I like this but wish it lasted a bit more.

這是一個很棒的男性香水,味道非常溫和的木質柑橘味 有點像高級的柑橘肥皂味 是一種感到優雅乾淨的風格香味 我有次在商店購物,一位小女孩稱讚我身上的香水 This is a great male perfume with a very mild woody citrus flavor. A bit like a soap senior citrus flavor Is an elegant and clean style fragrance I have shopped in the store once, a young girl praised my perfume.

in addition to my review below after wearing this for a while I was left with a feeling that the dry down reminded me of something..... a soft and subtle version of Ambre Sultan Eau de Parfum by Serge Lutens, odd but true. This is Ambre sultan junior. Shame longevity isn't better.
