Ambré

“The murder weapon Madame et Monsieur was..... a bottle of Ambre!” Hercule Poirot thrust the sparkling heavy bottle of the oriental woody perfume at the horribly assembled group in the dining salon. At that precise moment the Orient Express lurched violently as it entered a tunnel and plunged the car and all within into a sudden inky darkness. A woman’s scream was devoured by the shriek of the train whistle. Shattering glass was immediately followed by the spread of most intoxicating scent any of them had ever smelled. “MY AMBRE!!” a man’s voice cried out. Then, just as suddenly as it was hurled into darkness the train exploded from the tunnel and the in the glaring light Prince Nicolai Poliakoff was discovered choking Hercule Poirot. “I would kill for my Baldessarini Ambre.” Indeed a delicious mystery unfolds from this impossibly gorgeous and murderously heavy bottle that encases one of the most entrancing, superiorly masculine fragrances I have come across. The bottle is a work of art that is surpassed by the color of the juice. It is not merely brown, nor is it tea color but rather some kind of wonderful amber. As if the best chocolatier in Paris came up with the perfect clear chocolate brown. But the show really begins when you put this glorious fragrance onto your skin. A wonderful warm whiskey soaked apple embraces you in pure intoxication. This in turn is encased in a rich vanilla and leather with just a hint of violet. As that fades into a long lingering and lush dry down up comes the labdanum, amber and oak. It all finally fades out on my skin at about 9 hours. MisterCrazyLegs said he could bathe in it, so could I, it is just that rich, wonderful, sensual and intoxicating. It is really threatening my signature scent Chanel Pour Monsieur with murder. Baldessarini might just win. Five Plus Platinum Stars ****

It's a shame this stuff doesn't last longer, because I enjoy it quite a bit. Boozy, slightly dry, not disgustingly sweet, rich and masculine. The top notes blend with the whiskey, creating a sort of fruity, Bourbon Whiskey accord. Keep in mind there is no actual whiskey note in the fragrance, but I find this aspect quite intriguing and alluring. The booziness colours the fragrance with a strong masculine tone, without overpowering the scent. In this sense everything is well balanced and expertly put together. The vanilla is neither cloying nor overly sweet, as some modern men's fragrances tend towards. Since this is a more "mature" fragrance I think they opted for a less overt sweetness, which is great. The vanilla/amber base is incredibly sexy, nice and warm, with a bit of leather in the heart which gives the whole thing a smooth, very faintly oily character. The whole thing is quite beautiful, actually. Wearing this makes me feel well-dressed, masculine, confident and sexy. Projection is moderate and restrained, as it should be. Men of distinction are not usually smelled from across the room. 5-6 hours MAX longevity, which is truly unfortunate as the fragrance as a whole is very well done. I've heard of issues of longevity with BOSS fragrances before. It's too bad that Baldessarini was not able to break away from that into a higher echelon of quality and production.

From the very first moment you experience this fragrance, from the very first millisecond, you know it deserves its five star rating. Right from the get-go it smells of such high quality you know that the creator of this magical elixir put their blood, sweat and tears in it and have created their defining masterpiece, their pride and joy. You don't have to "get to know" this fragrance, you don't "have to wear it a few times" to appreciate it or understand it; it owns you the very first time it hits you. It's not loud, it's not obscene; it's pure class with impeccable manners and sophistication. You better be wearing a suit and tie! Ambre is a very warm, soft, vanilla sweet fragrance that sits on a strong masculine base of Oak room leather and rum amber. The apple note adds freshness to the mixture and the overall package is beautifully gourmand, rich and incredibly well balanced. These notes weren't just thrown together, they've found each other and created an institution! The siliage is soft to moderate, but for me the longevity is at least 12 hours with 2 sprays on the neck and one on each wrist. I think the siliage is perfect for this type of poison; the closer you get the more under its spell you become. It has pure sex appeal and it has been one of my most complimented on fragrances. This is my first blind-buy/instant likes. Worth every penny; and then some.

To start, it’s important to say that Baldessarini Ambré is a scent of an oriental olfactory path. It is sweet and creamy. This matters to me because it is my preferred style! And by the way, the style of this fragrance matches the advertisement slogan: “separates the men from the boys”. On the skin, the scent opens strong and harsh, giving a kind of “burning” sensation in the nostrils, because of the whiskey and mandarin notes. In evolution, I didn’t feel the heart notes (violets and leather) as an important part of it. I also didn’t think that the leather note is too evident as it is in colognes whose leather notes are in the base. The awesome part of this scent is the base and what it lets on the skin as a gift: a creamy mix of vanilla + labdanum, well blended by the amber. YES, this scent is creamy, as the others made with a good vanilla ingredient. To make comparisons, I found lots of names: Ambré Sultan, Dirty English, Tom Ford, etc. I don’t have any of them, even though I have already felt Ambré Sultan. Inside my range of personal colognes, I could find nuances of Arpége. To finish, it has a long duration. I keep smelling my arms, breathing, and inspiring the air that grows with the breath and I must admit that it is wonderful.

This is a subtle version of Dirty English with about a ton & a half of tobacco flower (nicotiana) piled on top. I recently obtained a barely used bottle for a song. Sharp at application, I'm 90 minutes in and I'm enveloped in a soft cloud of nicotine from tobacco flower, leather & soft ambre. Slightly sour as most tough-leafed plants are, particularly tobacco. Definely NOT the smell of cigarettes so don't avoid it if you hate the smell of ciggies, whether lit or unlit.)The seamless blend of notes feels warm, comforting and stimulating, the way fine leather does when you run your fingers lightly across it. Sultry, yes, that's the word. The bottle is quite heavy (100ml) and it feels good to hold, very substantial, but there's nothing printed on it nor in its design to indicate whether it's meant for men or women. I bought it unboxed and had assumed it was unisex & was surprised to find it's meant for men. I don't let that deter me from enjoying it and other women shouldn't, either. Edit: I sensed this fragrance would blossom on skin warmer than mine was when I wrote the above and July and August proved me right. Warmer skin brought out less tobacco flower and more leather. Lasted far longer on warm skin as well. Highly recommended.

I like this one more the more often I try it, but I'm still not sold on a bottle. It's sweet, there's no doubt, but the boozy quality saves it from becoming too sweet. Imagine a well-groomed, somewhat accomplished, but not overly rich gentleman sitting on his favorite leather chair beside an open window. This fellow is very clean, in his middle years, and conservative in dress and habit, perhaps an academic. He's nursing a well-diluted whiskey sour while enjoying a gentle, fresh evening breeze that carries the soft scent of apple pie cooling on a distant window sill. Unfortunately, whoever baked the pie must not care for spice. The scene painted by this scent almost makes up in simple charm what it lacks in excitement, but there's still something lacking for me. Maybe our friend needs to take up smoking pipes or else panel his library with some exotic wood. Even a little patch of lavender down the garden path would give more luster. In the meantime, his projection is modest and his staying power average. He's quite proper. No one could possibly find him objectionable, but his tweed jacket would get a bit hot in summer.

This Ambré greets me with a boozy whisky on the rock; way to make an introduction! Then, the scent is freshen up with slices of orange, but there is no apple, but maybe more like an apple cider. Leather gives it some smokiness here and something naughty to think about. All of these are sweeten by amber and vanilla; giving the scent some warm and soft sexiness. Without these two sweet ingredients, I'd find the scent bitter and very mature. There are few fragrances out there that I think they have some similarity such as Guerlian L'Instant, Christian Audigier Man, and maybe Dirty English as well (Ambré seems to be the youngest) Out of all Baldessarini fragrances, this Ambré is the one I like because it's well-balanced and it seems to fit in a broader age group. In my opinion, it's prefect for college, date night, and job interview. It really does "separate the men for the boys". Quick Note: Actually I do smell red apple, but only on my clothes. It shows up when I don't try too hard to smell it. It's super fresh and very interesting mix of smoky whisky and sweet juicy apple. I was liking it but now I love it!

This is one of my stock scents. I bought it blind and largely due to the content of comments here on this thread. I love a bargain and it was available at a price that I could not ignore. That said, this fragrance is one of the long lasting and subtle kind that keep throwing hints of orange and apple all the way through wearing but with a beautiful undertone of oak on my skin. I don't get too much of the leather or violet at any stage in drydown. This is one that boosts the confidence with a gentle reminder that it is there and still with you. The advertising is pretty much spot on, it does give you the feeling of effortless calm that does bring a sense of being in complete control. It keys into the confident yet quietly controlled part of my own personality very nicely. It is not flashy or staid, neither stockbroker nor old money but successful and generous in style. The choice of model is on one level perfect but perhaps gives the impression this is for an older man. For me this is for the 30 to 40 year old with a certain gravitas and definitely a professional.

Out of all the Baldessarini collection's, to me Ambré is tops in my books!! Both notes of Amber and apple combined gives it a realistic warm vib with sweet and a herbal aroma. With the added note of leather it gives it a deep tone with a bit of a boozy vib making it very sexy and very masculine. Both vanilla and woodsy notes gives this fragrance some snap being a warm sweet/spicy frag which is excellent during the fall/winter juice. Balancing this frag is voliet which definitely is an integral part of this complex aroma. Longevity is EXCELLENT and Silage is moderate but very noticeable. Final thoughts, After many years after this fragrance came out I finally made a blind purchase hoping that it would be at least nice? This fragrance isn't just nice, it has a smooth creamy aroma. I thought that the apple note would give it a distinct soar aroma..I don't smell it what's so every!! I can also pick up a definite aroma of a smokey/woodsy scent. As a fall/winter scent it certainly has a luxurious aroma giving it two thumbs up. A five star fragrance ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A Glass of Blended Scotch (Alberto Morillas, 2007) Scentrack: Jamiroquai - Everyday For some reason, I did not see the hidden beauty of this composition. To my nose, Ambre was a banal and weak composition of the German fashion house Baldessarini. Until one day I finally saw (smelt) the idea behind. Apparently Master Morillas took a glass of Johnnie Walker Black and recreated the fruity and peaty smell of the blend. Ambre possesses all the dram qualities – light fruitiness, peated body and light sweetness. It opens with apple and very soft mandarin orange, but soon the composition is overwhelmed by light leather and whisky nuances. It further develops with amber and soft oak and vanilla that mimic a whisky cask. Amber is warm and soft, introverted, yet masculine. It is a pleasure to wear Ambre. However, I would like Ambre to be a little bit stronger and outspoken. Ambre Intense? Ambre is romantic like Riga during fall. Rich and introverted. Warm like a piece of Baltic amber or a sip of whisky on a cold Daugava wind. Scentimentalwords

Blind buy success I can't believe I just now found this. I've "seen" it before on here, but never bothered to look into it. We all know now blind buy s can go, I couldn't resist as the price is so low, $23.00 shipped on Amazon prime. All the reviews are good, this never happens, there's always some sort of bashing, especially on low price frags that are known for being synthetic smelling or cheap . Well, the best comment I've ran across that really sums this fragrance up the best, is "this is boss bottled all grown up". Agreed. I do find the opening a little feminem. As a male fragrance collector I am not gender bias in terms of marketing, but there are of course so excited frags I will not buy or wear as they are strictly too feminem. I wouldn't enjoy that. This has a feminem opening but it's not too bad, it still has masculine and really a great scent. I liked boss bottled aka #6 as one of my hall of fame bottles. This takes that and adds a boozy vanille and Amber vibe to it, maybe a little more sweet too. Overall 8./10

I got a 50 ml bottle for cheap at Rossman, much cheaper than online. I oversprayed myself to work with this today (once again I remind that I work in an industrial environment, I can do that) and already got a compliment. Nice and oakey-ambery, I am *very* noseblind to red apple, I couldn't quite feel it in Coral Fantasy either, but I can tell it's there along with the whiskey note. The mandarin feels overshadowed, but whatever. I'd say it also feels more like an orange though. A very elegant-casual thingy that will do wonders in cold weather. Feels versatile for a winter/fall frag, I'd say that's awesome! My only problem with it is the silliage and the longevity, not lasting all that long. You need a few extra sprays for better performance. Other than that, I'll happily wear this more and maybe buy the 100 ml once I run out. EDIT: BARLESSARINI!!!!! I NEED AN EDP VERSION OF THIS!!! I NEED THIS TO LAST LONGER!!!!

Fragrance -Ambré Baldessarini Bottle from - 2016 Ambré reminds me of something beautiful and forbidden,like forbidden fruit.For example,having an affair with a girl who doesn't know your name or date with another man's girlfriend.Things I have never done ofc, but for such opportunities,Ambré is one of best choice. Longevity - 7/10(7+hours) Silage/Projection - 7/10(moderate projection for the first 2-3 hours) Weather - autumn,winter Age - 28+ Compliments - 8/10 Scent - 8/10 (nice amber fragrance) Main Notes According to me - amber,apple,leather,mandarin,whiskey The drydown is nice and i get some woodiness,vanilla and amber Emotions -sexy,mysterious,forbidden,dangerous,date All notes are arranged brilliantly.Perfect for date and close encounters.Very sophisticated,complex,boozy and masculine scent.Ladies love this one.I recommend this fragrance.

best compliment i ever got was for this fragrance.. it was in 2010 but i remember it like it was yesterday.. up until that time i had about 40-50 others and then this came in the mail.. was going on a trip to see her and she knew i had a lot of fragrances and was in to them.. decided to only take this new bottle with me to give it a testing.. when i arrived/unpacked she asked whats this, i told her i just got it before i came out here.. she took the cap off, sprayed it on me and after a few seconds said "wooow.. why do you even own anything else".. i imagine if you know how to pull this fragrance off, thats how most women would react to it

Lovely scent but about 30% as strong or long lasting as it used to be. Smells like an oak aged whiskey, with a soft ambery fruitiness throughout. (Smells a lot better than it sounds at least to me) Good if you only need it to last an hour or so, with practically no projection. Wish I'd stocked up a few years ago before they weakened it, as I'd happily pay double for it. I still have a bottle as I found a 90ml for £24 so I can still use it at home. Summary: Great boozy amber scent but very weak! Skin scent after 5 mins. Edit: Realised I've already done a review of this. Still applies. As someone else said "Beautiful but heartbreaking"

Sprayed this one the back of my hand about an hour ago and I have to say performance is not great. Scent wise it's a mixed bag , I like parts of it but it's obviously a more mature - classic somewhat outdated, especially in the opening. Once the fuzziness passes it starts to get a lot better. Like I've said one hour later it becomes more mass pleasing and quite a bit spicier. Edit: I was quite a bit harsh on the performance. It's actually great. Definitely above average. And the scent grew a lot on me even in the opening. Wore this a lot these last few days as it's the perfect time/temp to do so.

The opening was like sticking my head in a bottle of rum while burning incense. The dry down had the boozeyness burned down, the incense less intense and instead there was softer incense, woody accord,leather, (slightly like an oud) dirtied light patchouli and some amber. Its drydown is a nice smokey masculine smell. Its not loud or offensive. A little synthetic but hey, that is what makes it affordable. Good bottle, tight cap. More mature scent. I really love the drydown. Its very well balanced. 8/10 for scent quality. Decent longevity, moderate projection, close silliage about a foot.

oooh this is absolute magic! If ever a scent appealed to me it's this one. Sweet, sticky, warm, balmy base which is never cloying even for a second. Then that delicate fruity accord of cola, yes it's very similar to Dunhill Custom, I only wish I had discovered this sooner. It's far more refined than the Dunhill and releases more subtle complex notes. I'd also say it's woodier and all in all better smelling and the best thing about it....Baldesarinni Ambre lasts quite well. This is a great hidden gem of a scent and cheap enough to not feel guilty about buying. I'm getting it.

I have to say (IMO), this is one of the best colognes for men out there. Yes, the top notes are kind of harsh, alcohol mixed with apples, similar to liquor cider or cidra in spanish. Just let it settle for about 30 minutes, and then you will really appreciate it. On my skin, this one becomes very smoky (this is the best part)and then ends sweet, with a touch of leather. Projection is fantastic, and longevity.....I usually apply it in the morning, still there in the afternoon. I have to say, all the Baldessarini's are above average, with this being the greatest one. Cheers!

Hehehe I applied this one once and went on a job interview the guy asked me what I was wearing, sumthin came over me and I said "some good shit..." I mean really, I said that, he just looked at me and smiled, this is the killer on company parties... its musculine in every form, " REALLY separates the men from the BOYS/KIDS" and me bein a big scotch fan, the whiskey note really gets me goin and makes me feel like a thousand bucks lol... Good stuff if U ask me, sillage is good but the longevity could be alittle bit better PS. By the way I got the job. lol

The scent it clean and very understated. It does not project very far; however, it does have a nice longevity. This was bought as a birthday present and I've been wearing it for about a week. I don't get the sweetness at the start that others describe, more acidic and sharp. The dry down is very much amber with maybe a touch of whiskey but I frankly don't get any tobacco. It's a very good day-to-day cologne, but, it's not one for "special" occasions. It is very adult yet modern. There's a very faint whiff of powder but not enough to be off putting.

Sweet, ambery leather. This is a gorgeous amber and leather scent, soft and warm, with a bit of fruity sweetness from the apple, and cigarette-like tobacco accord likely from the leather/oak combo. It's really good. Luxurious, mature, mysterious, serious. This is an impressive, nose-catching scent. I love it but the performance is disappointing. While it lasts for more than 5 hours, you do not get any projection past the first hour. Nonetheless, I find it a scent worth owning at the right price. A very mature and classy cool weather wear. "Love".

Imagine winter, a fire place, a room where everything is made of wood, a shot single malt whiskey, with a hint of smokiness and sweetness, a leather jacket. A very warm, ambery, fruity, woody and semi-sweet scent that is manly to the core, a dirty and animaic notes are very well contained, just a bit to make it interesting, and not too much to make it very unique, as lovely as this is its not very unique, it's also fluffy and airy not as syrupy as other ambery sweet scents, it won't be as appealing in very warm weather or in daytime. Beautiful!

An excellent, instantly likable scent that morphs over time. The violet notes are there at the start to add a sweetness, making any whiskey note a lightly flowered appley bourbon instead of a peaty scotch. Not enough strength in the mandarin for me to detect. The fine leather exerts itself over several hours. Like other Baldessarinis I've tried, it's a mature, light scent that needs to be applied somewhat liberally to last. I love it expressing itself over time, especially for daytime wear at the office or a casual evening out.

Wow, many great reviews here...obviously a great cologne. This is excellent, and has in my experience a unique silage in that as you move, it then drifts and the scent floats outwards from there...if you are still, it is close to the skin..Its a very powdered OAK that drifts, a soft smelling but strong wood, ...oak, amber, violet, a dash of apple sweetness at the start. Good insight biscoff and buysblind,..... I am so glad we can all contribute on this stuff..these opinions really help and save us all $$$ and is interesting.

This is a fantastic fragrance, gentlemen! It opens with a boozy, even somewhat dirty vibe, but then settles into an apple/ambery/lightly boozy mid that lingers close to the skin for a good while. It’s well known that this isn’t a sillage bomb. Use this when you’ll be indoors, in close quarters, or when your nightly prowl calls for a little more discretion than fanfare. If the above notes appeal to you, you’ll be glad to wear this- it smells true to its description. Ambré is some good juice. I recommend it.

Just bought this for my son-in-law's Xmas present....but had to sneak a sniff. Got a nice smooth bourbon with lots of caramel! That rides on a quiet but solid foundation of amber. A nice leather with just a hint of violet. And fairly early in the dry down a tobacco note that I find very charming. Reminds me of my grandfather. I know its supposed to "separate the men from the boys", but it also wears well on a strong grandmother! Damn. Now I have to go out and get something else for him! Merry Yule ya'll!!

Been wearing this for a few years now. Is and always will be one of my favourites for cooler months. Boozy amber with orange. Elegant, smooth and autumnal. Marvellous. Far exceeds any of their other offerings I've tried. Love the heavy classy bottle as a bonus. Prices steadily climbing though I've noticed. EDIT: Forgot to mention that it's considerably weaker than it used to be. I still love it, but wish they'd bring out a stronger edition to compensate for this. I'd happily pay a premium for it.

"Wow!!! That's badass!!!" :) That's the first impression I got when I spritzed it on. Whiskey, amber, apple almost tabacco-y kickass badasserie!!! 2 enthusiastic thumbs up on this one folks!!! One of my favorite night time scents! Though I sometimes wear it to work in the daytime.... still, compliments galore. Want to smell like a MAN??.... Buy this! It has become one of my very favorites. Very alluring and makes you feel good in a sexy sort of way.

Wow the reviews here are spot in!!!! 100 points for : Lanier ( most poetic reviewer on fragrantica ) ,LSDsideburns and Cardenal mendoza! Just read their reviews and you know what Ambre holds for you if you buy it. My verdict : Deep,sultry,enigmatic,warm,cuddly and boozy fragrance for men. ( yes indeed MEN , not for little boys ) Best worn on a evening out or if you want to get romantic... Women will digg their noses in your neck! I rest my case

"Seperates the men from the Boys" ambre truly holds this caption. It is a Class perfume, mysterious and unique. An excellent blend of smoky apple, whisky, tobacco and laeather notes. It is for mature age group and can be used as a formal wear for particcular ocassions. It has got nice sillage and good longevity too! Wonderful and heavy bottle, truly compliments the perfume. I like to smell it again and again. I like to rate it 8 out of 10.

You can't go wrong with this cologne. It's strong enough to say I have character but yet soft enough to linger around. The smell starts off with a burst off apples and whiskey, then after about 5 minutes you can begin to smell the amber which is almost a sweet scent but not cloying. Overall this is an awesome scent that you can pull off whenever. Signature Scent?-Absolutely 8 hrs Longevity and Silliage good to about 6 hrs.... Rate: 9.8-10

The initial notes got me crazy and left me with great feelings about the way it smells . The middle notes are not that tempting , and then .. the base was fine enough to make me unleash the bucks$ . The performance was unstable as it differs from one apply to another . Onething for sure is that Ambre does its best when applied to cotton shirt , while it doesn't do well on my skin . I found similiarities to D&G the one , the smokiness ! ..

For me, it's like late autumn in a bottle. The perfect setting would be dry, cold, almost freezing day. That's when this scent shines: it's very elegant leathery scent. But it's a delicate note of leather. Maybe a bit cold smoke, or even ashes. It's faint and powerful at the same time. Personally, I love it. It's definitely not very versatile. I use it mostly, when I know I will spend a lot of time outside in autumn.

Wonderful! This is a very complex one, for me it is really difficult to distinguish which notes I am getting, it is like there are 50 notes mixed together in a brilliant way to bring this beauty. Unfortunately all I can get is woody leather diluted by sweet-citrus fruits, but for sure there are many other notes. Projection not that good but longevity is. This is real class, best to be used at night.

Very nice scent, a little pungent and sharp when you just apply it, but after 20 minutes it settles down to a more subtle sweet and fruity amber scent. Definatly not an old mans smell, i don't really get it why some say it is, it might have something to do with the advertising i guess. It's fresh but not in a citrus way, wich is a good thing for me personally :) it's fresh and warm at the same time.

I would best describe this fragrance as the father of Boss Bottled #6.They smell identical,but Ambre has the whiskey,and leathery notes that make Ambre seem like the mature version of Boss Bottled.Ambre is a very well made scent that is great for formal,date,church,wedding,business attire.Very classy,and the apple,and vanilla notes make this one very pleasant as well.

Of all the colognes I have in my collection, Ambre by Baldessarini is one of my all time favorites. Every time I wear it I get compliments from everyone. I put it on in the morning and by the evening I can still smell it. I like the amber and the apple together. The dry down is very sweet and masculine. Defenitely a cologne that can be worn both day and night.

Baldessarini Ambré turns quickly into a skin scent. But, trust me, it's better this way. A red-fruity amber, borderline powdery, but there's a rough leather accord throughout the evolution that would not be easy to bear was this perfume more potent. If Layton was a good perfume, it would smell like this (just kidding). (no, seriously). Very, very good! 9/10

This has been in my collection for years and I have gone through two bottles with another one tucked away in storage ready for when i need it. I really think Baldessarini should bring out Ambre in a Eau De Parfum concentration, or Parfum! How amazing would that be!!! Baldessarini.. if you're listening 🙏

smoky-spicy clean amber.... clean in the sense that it doesnt have that dirty or animalic note you find in another amber-based scents .... this is a very well blended fragrance where all the ingredients are playing with each other in harmony to give such a great scent that i love ....

I love this scent! My big brother wore this for ages when I was little and I would always hug him extra long to smell this. Not too sweet, kind of a soft smooth earthy, woody, masculine scent. Just reminds me of my childhood and my big brother whom I love and miss very much.

Ambré Baldessarini is simply GRATE , GRATE , GRATE ( masculine , classy , sophisticated , sweet ) , grate for winter night or day or out or office & safe beside the bottle design is perfect & beautiful as well . P.S. the only downside is it should be 200 ml not 90 ml.

Please Baldessarini, wanna really separate the men from the boys? Make an edp of this then we will talk, other than that am a big fan of this one and strictly private. I just think we surely can stomach alittle more strength in your fragrances. Just a thought.

This is a nice hidden gem. Its a mix between Boss bottled & Boss Orange with the fruity/woody accord. This is a nice fruity/ambry fragrance with a leather undertone. I payed 30euro for 90ml, what a steal for the price. Great quality for the price.

I ordered this fragrance because of all the good reviews it received. I am glad I bought it. I smell the amber, spices and apple very clearly. It is sophisticated and a gentelmans fragrance. This fragrance will be on top of my list from now on.

I absolutely love this fragrance. I have nothing in my collection that smells quite like it. The violet, leather and whiskey in this is amazing and blended very well. Do not be afraid to try this. Projection and longevity are about average.

Opens with amber and red apple scent 90% the way Costume ( Dunhill ) does. Far better version of Costume. Dry down is a pleasant mixture of amber, leathery notes. 4/5 Age:+25 Formal Moderate lasting and projection. Autumn cool nights .

I never was a fan of Baldessarini ́s fragrances. But this one is a very good scent, indeed. I like very much the drydown, but i think it could be stronger from the start.For the price, worths every euro i spent on it!

Thick, lightly boosy and very long lasting. A beautiful mix of Boss Bottled and the warm amber of Dolce&Gabbana The One with soft leather in the dry down. Tremendous value for the quality you get. Highly recommended.
