Classic

Woody-Aromatic VETIVER with Citrus & Amber. In the first couple of minutes, there's some masculine fresh-ozonic tones. As the sillage starts to open up, I get the citrus, green & aromatic accords with lime, juniper(gin)-alcohol notes punctuated by a faintly sour galbanum note. As it transitions to the heart I can feel the cedar-amber swelling through, and a minty fresh-spiciness on a woody-citrus accord with cypress & nutmeg. Some sweetness accrues, but multi-faceted vetiver is the star of the show here in the base with it's grassy, fruity & woody facets. For me this is overall a vetiver scent, and smells similar to vetiver essential oil, with the other notes serving to support & enhance different facets of vetiver. I'm not always a fan of vetiver, especially if they lean too much to dead grass, but this is one of the nicest and easy to wear vetiver scents that I've smelt. Contrast to Adventure Davidoff: These are different, but there are striking similarities with vetiver. Adventure is more complex, and has a slightly more bitter opening and some of the more challenging facets of vetiver. Classic is easier to wear. Roughly equivalent performance. Overall: affordable, easy-to-wear vetiver scent with average or slightly above average performance. Enjoy!

Beckham Classic is not a bad scent for the price. BC has an Amber, Woodsy smell to it. Almost reminds me of Chanel Allure Homme Sport. It's a safe, if synthetic scent. Performance is fairly weak. I only get a few hours out of it. Projection is decent though. I did notice this performs very well in the high heat and projection was huge. This one does receive some compliments. It's also very inexpensive. 7.5 of 10.

I recently finished off a small sample bottle of this and have to say it is a very different scent to any previous by the 'Beckham' range. This is a very aromatic fragrance which for me sold it. Would definitely be very good as a daily wear scent. I will probably be buying a full bottle soon or when the price decreases to something much less than it is now as the 'Beckham' fragrances usually do. :)

Another good scent from Mr Beckham. Smooth, smart and sophisticated. Definitely for the 30-something man. A 'suited-and-booted' type fragrance. All the DVB fragrances that I have tried are in the upper "like" category but DVB Classic.....I love it. Far higher quality scent than it's price point (e.g. £17 for 90ml at Superdrug right now). Suitable for wear any time. Very nice indeed.

Well this has been a pleasant surprise. I recently received another big box of mixed samples, this being one. It was probably the only scent in the box that didn't appeal to me. Everything about it just seemed cheap and so I was expecting a harsh, synthetic, standard mens cologne. Not at all. First spray gives a lovely warming woody amber smell - not the gin and lime mentioned in the notes. If you sniff really hard you may just pick out a soft fleeting whiff of lime, but this certainly isn't citrusy fresh. The drydown stays pretty much the same; nutmeg, cypress, possibly, but like the lime only fleeting. I had to look up Texas Cedar as I could certainly pick out the woody accord, but didn't think it was like a regular cedar smell. Sure enough Texas Cedar is classed as having a sweet, soft, balsamic wood scent and it belongs to the juniper family. This mixed with the amber gives the distinctive warmness. My good lady wasn't quite as enamored as me, describing it as smelling like 'a regular Lynx deodorant or shower gel'. Yes well, nothing wrong with a lot of the Lynx sprays in my opinion! Anyway, I like it. I do appreciate that longevity isn't the best (I get just over 3 hours with 3 sprays to the neck) and sillage is only moderate, but this is a very low priced EDT. David Beckham Classic - don't believe the negativity, it's well worth a try.

It's a nice scent, Fresh, Clean and Elegant. It opens up with like fresh citrusy slightly spicy and green notes in the background then dry down is Ambery woody. This perfume reminds me of Trussardi Riflesso that It was launched in 2017 but David Beckham Classic was launched in 2013 and Trussardi Riflesso is after it. This is suitable for the spring, summer and fall. I really enjoy it and I like Classic David Beckham EDT for Men. Longevity is average. Rating : 7 / 10

This is the first DB fragrance I've ever tried. I had a certain reluctance and skepticism about 'celebrity' fragrances if you like. Nothing against Beckham, In fact as a die hard Manchester United fan I've nothing but respect for the guy. Anyway...This fragrance is not bad at all. Aromatic, manly, and pretty old skool frankly! I won't be getting it but it's not bad at all and has encouraged me to try the other fragrances in the line.

What a great, distinct fragrance. I wouldn't put it on my boyfriend as it is more of a 35+ hot dad scent. I think it is very well rounded and definitely not boring. I only spritzed one wrist and it was very strong for the next hour until I showered. I get a powdered ginger smell from this, not a refreshing lime cocktail.

I received this David Beckham Classic as a Secret Santa gift, it's a nice scent and quite manly but nothing super amazing. I like to wear it when I'm just lingering around the house or when I jump into bed. Sillage and longevity is ok but again nothing to get excited over, great because of the attractive price point.

To me this smells like a slight redo of Instinct but it's a bit more fresh and subtle in the opening. I get pretty good longevity with this but it stays very close. You can smell it in your clothes later on in the day but it's subtle. It's a good daytime fragrance that you can spray a ton of!

I don't know. It's pretty wearable for a TJMaxx cheapo. It is actually very much like a watered down and more synthetic Michael Kors Men which I like a great deal. Woody, spicy and a bit warm. I'll keep it.

a simple, yet pleasant freshy for any day to day activity. The major con is its durability and projection, which is minimal to none. It becomes a skin scent very quickly after applying.

Great value for the price since it was only $10, the scent was very pleasant but didn’t last for more than 4hrs. I would rebuy it if it had better performance.

To my nose this smells exactly like Burberry Men. Gives me the same woody vibe. Nice fragrance, classy but not so long-lasting from what I've experienced.

Nice fresh and clean masculine scent. Hard to pick notes overall it smells fresh spicy. Performance is very weak. Overall not bad for the money.

Although it’s a bit mature for me, I think this is his best scent still (I especially like the deodorant which has leathery notes)

Smells pretty good but a bit weak and generic cologne smell. Reminds me of CK Eternity, but a bit more citrusy in the opening.

Woodsy, minty, & clean. It has a soft and slightly grainy texture. It smells natural, like a springtime breeze.

Nice-very pleasant smell-can't believe it's so cheap-a steal at $15! It's scent is addictive!

The scent is nice but the performance is the issue for an edt, there are better alternatives
