Classic

Short Review: One of my favorite scents to smell but the performance is pretty weak. It’s a clean, simple, crisp and invigorating scent (a nice grapefruit at the opening but not too sweet). Bright but refined. Good for all occasions. It does not overly project and becomes a skin scent quickly (seems like some bottles perform better than others). It’s non offensive and a compliment getter when people are close. It is good for what I want in a daily frag: to subtly smell clean, fresh and put together without overthinking it. Comes in a big 4.2 oz bottle and is dirt cheap so I can overspray. I do wish it stayed around a little longer. I like this stuff. Detailed Review: I’ve gotten some better performing bottles and some weaker performing bottles. There is an EDP and an EDT (they look similar and I don’t think fragrantica makes a distinction). The EDP liquid is slightly purple. I think the previous EDT liquid was slightly yellow before but the recent EDT bottle I got was purple like the EDP. There are other variations too (ie. Classic aqua, Classic Citrus) that look similar but are different frags altogether and they have different review pages. The Classic EDT and EDP are not projection monsters to say the least. Sometimes it almost disappears right after over spraying. Sometimes it hangs around more subtly close to the skin. Overall it’s a clean, simple, wonderful scent. It does not overly project (even when I overspray). It’s non offensive, smells clean and is a compliment getter when people are close. Citrus and white florals make it crisp and bright but it’s refined. It can be worn as a gym scent, at the office, heading to church or on a date night. It’s capable and at ease in all situations and occasions (mostly in a very subtle way). Some might find it lacks projection (I agree), is too linear, simple or boring. For me, it is good for what I want in a daily fragrance: to subtly smell clean, fresh and put together without overthinking it. The clear glass bottle is simple, attractive and large (4.2 oz. vs. typical 3.4 oz.). The cap is cheap plastic. The cost is cheap. Atomizer is fine. I like this stuff. Smell: 9.5 out of 10 (for its category) Performance: 3 out of 10 Overall: 7out of 10 considering the price.

I'm gonna re-review this. I love the scent. Green citrus floral notes in harmony giving a relaxing, calming, clean scent. To my nose, it reminds me of freshly printed magazines or brochures. This is probably the most inoffensive fragrance I've put my nose on. In fact, I'm so confident it wont offend that I tried spraying this on a carpool a few times and I got no negative reactions. The only problem with this is how diluted it is when you spray it straight off the bottle. Sometimes I don't even know if I'm spraying hand sanitizing alcohol on me or I'm spraying a fragrance. The trick is to decant. I decanted it on a travel-sized bottle and I guess it evaporated a good amount of alcohol because it smells so concentrated and much more long-lasting. Overall, if this lasted an hour or two longer and it didn't have this alcohol problem, I would have had this as my signature scent forever.

A preppy soap fragrance that stays true to its name. Slightly zesty, aromatic citrus rounded by aldehydes, fresh and green like tea served in a spa. A very zen scent that's reminiscent of polo shirts and yachts. Chaste, but overwhelmingly pleasant. Charming and minimalist. EDIT: I got a lot more fruit from this today: melon, underripe starchy green banana, and kiwi. The top notes are still lemony fresh, but the heart is sweeter and a touch creamy. EDIT EDIT: This has become my favorite after shower fragrance and refresher for the heat! It's inspired me to look for more comforting citrus like it. Definitely a staple in my wardrobe. EDIT EDIT EDIT: I've had a 1.7oz spray since February and I'm now dangerously close to finishing the bottle. Classic has become a workhorse in my wardrobe. It simply smells good, and was easy for me to wear over this grueling summer.

A very fresh unisex citrus scent made unique with a heavy dose of honeysuckle. Extremely dilute formula, you can use it quite liberally without offending. It fades quickly as many citrus scents do. One note I don't see above is grapefruit, it's in there, white or green tea as well, pronounced. None of the heavy citrus notes of bergamot, but fresh citrus and flowers and tea. I do wonder sometimes if my masculinity will be questioned when I wear this, but it seems to work well for men and women... like a CK1 fragrance. I still like this one a lot. It's a lightweight unoffensive spring/summer/warm weather fragrance. Good for the office or everyday, I know a lot of people have this, and it doesn't cling to the skin forever, but it's pretty wonderful.

I have loved this fragrace for years and years now. Its my number 1 default when i dont know what to wear. By far the most versatile scent in my wardrobe and completely unisex. I ran out of my original bottle i bought years ago and bought a new one recently, both times from the BR store directly. They DEFINITELY reformulated this, sad to say. It has way more of that pink grapefruit note found in their W and M fragrances, which wasnt there before. It also used to last FOREVER. Not anymore. I guess i cant complain though, considering I got a 4.2 oz bottle for $18 on their Black Friday sale. Still one of my favorites nonetheless. I do get compliments with this.
