Zero Plus Masculine

This is one of those discontinued fragrances that can still be found in many places and cheaply (I paid the equivalent of $14 US for 2.5 Oz). When I first tried it my impression was that it smelled like a more sudued version of Lagerfeld Classic. Trying them in a side-by side test I can tell that the similarity is there, but not so much as I imagined. I think what I am detecting is the powderiness of both fragrances, plus the fact that they share musk, vanilla and amber in the base; and jasmine and rose in the middle notes. As both fragrances develop on the skin they become more alike. It is these floral notes with the basenotes that give both fragrances a more feminine, or perhaps unisex feel. It is a long-lasting fragrance that does not project too far from the body, but which is still detectable after 5 hours or so. The only negative I have is the bottle: what a waste of plastic! I would much rather have had a cap to put on the bottle than the large plastic dome, which if you discard leaves you with a bottle with no lid. It is surely an example of poorly functioning design.

Just got this one in, and I love warm spicy, cinnamon and anise-based frags. With that in mind, I was pretty certain I would love this one, and it didn't disappoint. However, as soon as I opened the crazy snowglobe-esque container and smelled the fragrance, I was immediately reminded of something. I started racking my brain, "where have I smelled this frag before?", and then it hit me. Old Spice. People may hate me for saying this, but this is 80% similar to Old Spice, with the warm, orange, spicy, floral, and slightly green fragrance profile. I love Old Spice cologne, so that revelation didn't cause a problem for me. If anything, I'd say this is a bit better than Old Spice, with stronger sillage and a bit more of a powdery, candied scent profile. Totally excellent, just like everything else I've had from Diesel.

I haven't smelled it in around 15 years. I received a new bottle today, having ordered it for £12.99 including delivery. I always remembered this as having an oriental feel with some sweetness and a sparkling kind of quality. Trying this again today I am impressed! The oriental feel is present with cinnamon being present along with other woody spices like cardamom. The citrus in this feature orange and bergamot. There is some vanilla in here too. It smells really good. Having owned so many more fragrances than when I last owned this, it does remind me of Spicebomb with orange. It's really nice smelling this again after so many years and in the middle of January, this is a good time to receive it.

This perfume was launched in 2000 (at least in Europe) for it was my signature scent throughout secondary school. By 2003 I had moved on to a new scent profile, discovering more feminine perfume. Funny to realise I was already wearing masculine scent profiles at that young age. It smelled so sweet, spicy and playful on my skin and the people in my class always joked that I smelled like fireballs (super spicy candies, that back in the day were ten minutes straight up spicy chilli burn, haha). I'm still into masculine and unisex fragrances and happy I discovered Qaa'ed by Lattafa - that one really brings back Zero Plus memories.

First of all, this is one of my all-time favorite fragrances that has been in constant rotation in my fragrance collection for the past 13 years (this fragrance was introduced in 2000, not 2003...I know because I bought a bottle when it was first introduced). I love it when it I first spray it on, and I love it after the dry-down. I don't really "get" the cinnamon note...interestingly enough, on my skin, it smells like vanilla and sandalwood. It doesn't last very long on my skin, but to me it's a very "cozy" fragrance that I wear for my own personal enjoyment. Not many guys wear it so I like it as an old, personal favorite.

WHAT A LOVELY PERFUME. (make me remember my dear OLD SPICE) Every time i go at my perfume store i look at this and say. never me with that, it look so rude and citrical. but last week i went as usual to buy a perfume the lady tell me, have you ever use DIESEL ZERO PLUS. y tell her my god nooo. she say why, thats a lovely perfume let me try it on you. OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE WHAT I WAS SMELLING. cinnamon-rose. this is a YOUNG BOY OLD SPICE. can't describe how happy i'm to get this perfume. really really love you DIESEL ZERO PLUS. P.D NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY HIS COVER. FRAGANCE: 10/10 LONG LASTING:7:10 PORJECTION:8/10

I love it.Really Really fabulous fragrance.at last i succeded to find this gem after years in a shop full of discontinued and vintage perfumes.it start with cinnamon after short vanilla join the cinnamon then 10 min later a nice powdery accord appear and dominate the scent vanilla exist too and cinnamon weakly whisper.I didnt expect such abeautiful smell.it`s presentation is so cool its look like a syrup bottle.Diesel always pioneer of odd and extraordinary designs. NIIIIIce 9/10

For several years, I'd sniff my way through the entire women's section without finding anything liked, and then cross over to the men's section instead. Zero Plus Masculine was my signature scent for a long time - I've had more fun in this fragrance than I dare tell my mother about. It certainly has a lot of cinnamon, but also several different spices, my old friends heliotrope and violet, and is that a faint bubblegum scent I smell? Sparkly, sexy and luckily not too heavy.

Really inexpensive but doesn't smell like it. I am pleasantly surprised by this little gem. A soapy, musky, spicy and floral oriental which, I think, is quite unique! There isn't a lot of cinnamon that I can smell on me, but I can smell the rose and musk distinctly. Longevity is good and it has excellent sillage. A lovely inexpensive scent with a lot of character. Love it to bits - gonna get more!

I bought this for my first serious boyfriend when I was 16 or 17. I loved the smell of this. Back in the mid-2000s this was masculine, with the female scents of the time being very girly and floral. Today this is definitely unisex; how times and tastes have changed! I just managed to find a bottle of this for myself and it smells like a spiced delicious delirious dream.

One of, if not my very first scents. As another reviewer has reviewed below, this was considered hyper-masculine back in the day. A well blended cinnamon-nutmeg scent. The florals just cut down on the spiciness so it doesn't come off too harsh. This has been discontinued for well over a decade but you can still get it en masse, somehow.

Sadly discontinued but really available still from ebay (and others) at very reasonable prices. It's a cinnamon bomb that mellows down to a warm spicy vanilla with huge longevity, as a skin scent I can still catch it 15 hours after applying. Cheap as chips, yes, but I'll wear this as often and as happily as ANY of my other fragrances.

Today I give an apply of it and yes it is fantastic.warm dry spices like cinnamon, cardamom and flowery notes make it a nice fascinating scet.powdery accord of flower really play nice in coldness. It's well balanced and not harsh.cardamom cinnamon nutmeg iris vanilla are obviously glittering .

I’m going to really go against the grain here, but I love it. It was cheap as anything, sold in discount stores everywhere, incredibly common but It just hit the spot for me. I still have the remnants of a bottle upstairs and I sprayed it earlier, still liking it. Each to their own etc.

Very unisex, I went through a couple of bottles twenty years ago, but still remember this scent foundly. :) Not to everyone's taste for sure, but give it a go if you like loud, warm and spicy scents, and don't want to pay a lot. Definitely not a good blind buy though!

So, I open the container, didn't even spray the bottle yet, and now all i smell in my room is CINNAMON. I dont mind, I LOVE the smell. Very strong, projection is very good as well. If you do not like strong cologne's, this is not for you. very WARM smell. |4.5/5

It's cheap, lasts a long time, great silage, unique and smells great. On me, I can smell: white musk, spices, rose and it's very well blended too! Simply one of the best inexpensive scents on the market. This smells expensive and I love it!

Way of smelling is important you put your nose on the applied area and expect recieve exquisite smell.this cinnamon is loud at first but after settling down the cinnamon and old powdery vibe remain a good powdery smell.I love it 9/10

I kinda enjoyed this cinnamon spice bomb. It's loud right from the start, but just has a pleasant overall scent to it. Considered a cheapie nowadays, but I just purchased two bottles off fragrancex for $21 and free ship, (March 2017)
