Nitro Red

Ok so I have seen Aromatic talk about this and he ain't steered me wrong yet! I order this with a lot of excitement and it came 15 day later, first spray I was hoping it smelt at least 70 percent of what I imagined,..... it reached 95 percent. This perfume smell is banging. Jheeez!!! The longevity on this one is insane, I sprayed this at 09:00 and it lasted until I had a bath and even after that I smelt it, while I was at work I got this wonderful smell that kept trickling up my noise performance is wicked and bad people. I have not received a compliment yet but I think that's because I'm 6.3 tall muscular and black lol but I know people at work smell me. This one goes down as one of my best fragrances and I have had Resela, Aseel Red Tobacco, Amourage black iris, Lhomm extreme, its reminds me of the latter but with watermelon, Im going to try and mix the 2 together and see what I create 👀. If you been on the fence to buy this just buy it, I've ordered anther two bottles as I know they will probably stop making this or reformulate it which I am not down for. Im not telling as to where I got this as I'm gate keeping this baby hahah, prick I know but hey, you dig deep enough you will find it eventually, I live in Switzerland too so nobody ships here. That water melon is sweet to rassklart tho love it not too sweet but sweet as in yeah boi!!! also the village is crazy everywhere I walk I could smell it, my co worker I saw her sniffing thinking what is that but was to shy to ask me if it was mean. The misses wore it to work today as she loves this smell and blue talisman I told her she needs to get her own bottle hahahaha. Hopefully the compliments come in soon enough but its not cos of this fragrance its because I look intimidating but im sweet as a Labrador. Happy hunting guys.

Considering the countless OGs, clones, and inspired takes on this DNA, Nitro Red manages to stand out in a sea of similarity, and that’s no small feat. It’s possibly my favorite interpretation with one notable exception: the OG Invictus Platinum. What sets Nitro Red apart is its contemporary spin, with the addition of a juicy watermelon note. This bright, slightly aquatic twist injects a playful, modern energy into the scent, making it more vibrant and engaging than other popular contenders like Hawas. Performance is another major win for Nitro Red. It easily lasts well above average on both skin and clothing, with a trail that leaves a positive impression without becoming overpowering (unless you overspray). For the price, it’s a no-brainer. That said, Nitro Red has a specific vibe that leans toward the youthful. It’s not the fragrance to reach for if you’re heading to a black-tie event or an elegant dinner. It’s bold, playful, and fun - a scent for easy social settings, casual outings, or nights out. I still wear it proudly despite my "decrepit age" but I know when to leave it on the shelf. Elegant or formal occasions demand something more sophisticated, but for casual use? No problem. In summary, Nitro Red is a fantastic addition to this olfactory genre. It’s lively, energetic, and contemporary. If you’re into this DNA but want something fresh and distinctive, this one is absolutely worth trying. Just save it for the right occasion.

I think the first impressions of the fragrance are lackluster, but once you wear it daily for a week you understand it. It has more nuance and separation between opening and drydown than Hawas. The projection and longevity are also superior. For me it opens up like invictus with watermelon and dries down similar to Gisada ambassador mixed with a hint of 1 million. There is a lot of nuance and detail to the fragrance which is nice. It retains the bubble gum fruityness throughout but the dry down is where it shines. It’s a woody, aromatic, sweet, spicy scent that is really pleasing to the nose. It smells more expensive than it is, around $80-90. The dry down of ambassador is the closest thing I can think of and the opening is like Hawas ice. The sandalwood in the dry down is in between Ambassador and Dior’s Elixir which is nice. I would wear this during the day during warmer seasons with the sun out. Excellent outdoors and office fragrance. Performance is excellent and stays projecting throughout the day with different phases. It’s like the Americanized version of Hawas. Overall scent and performance for price: 9.3/10 (Under $50)

Upon examining this fragrance more, DO NOT WEAR IT in a small closed room. It's like a witch Screaming in your ear LOUDLY with 1 spray,honestly, i didn't know what to do with my self, and its winter here with minus 4 ish 1 spray on my hand , came back to the room its all I could smell. Can still smell after a big meal and 1 hour later like I just sprayed it 🫢. Now for the smell itself, you'll get asked what you're wearing and its easy to see why, projects like crazy, with Fresh like invictus dna, with Candy, and Huge burst of more sweet Water Melon. Try not to smell it on your hand too much, its actually too potent, it might irritate some people who like subtle fragrances. If you like invictus, aqua di gio or fresh scents with lots of water melon that projects ALOT, you'll love this. Definitely a blind buy worthy, this and maison alhambra tabac the two that surprised me the most, nice quality along with nitro white albeit toned down slightly with sweet powdery honey thrown in 🍯..

Just got this in the mail today and decided to make it my scent of the day. This scent is definitely in the ball park of invictus and BR540. Very fresh and sweet, the watermelon is prominent to my nose once it’s in the drydown. Longevity is extremely long lasting on my skin and doesn’t lack on projection either. I tend to go nose blind to most scents but I sprayed this on around 2pm went to dinner at 6pm then a movie at 7:30 now I’m home at 11:41pm and I can still smell this on my skin. Definitely going to be wearing this a lot this summer. Me personally I give this an all around 10/10! My gf said it smelled really good when she first smelled it but the more she was around me the more she would pick up on something that smelled “old mannish” she’s very picky with her scents tho and she’s also pregnant so I think it was just the way she only likes certain scents. But I’m definitely rocking this throughout the summer
