Escada Sentiment pour Homme

This is one of the three that I've owned and loved and all of those have been discontinued. It's really not the typical fragrance. Quite spicy, sweet-ish and open, easy and welcoming. Definitely not an overpowering blast that just encapsulates you. I feel like I can wear this at any occasion and it won't feel like out of place. That said if you're after some erotic, seductive scent this might not fit the bill. It's not bad for dating, but I've had others doing better job at getting ants in the pants for the ladies (and why not men, whatever you prefer). Then again those have been phenomenal, this is just good. But don't get me wrong, it's not one of those boring office worker fragrances either. It has a twist, a personality and it's definitely sexy-ish. It's a multi-dimensional scent. Maybe not the one you would choose for a thanksgiving dinner at your mother-in-law's, it still has this sense of seductiveness in it. This is summer nights. This is standing at the seashore feeling a slight tickle of wonderlust. This is fresh horizons and joy of life. For me Esacada Sentiment is quite interesting in all its positive emotional complexity. I'd really recommend you to give it a shot should you still find one at a store.

I think this is far from generic. You can sense the effort of them doing something with the aim of being popular but also having a personality and special vibe. Its a great juice because it achieves both. Synthetic? Ok! I don't mind. Its dark and fresh at the same time. The lime, pepper, juniper combo keeps it fresh and vital, while the dry down has a woodiness that provides a solid base and the nutmeg keeps it spicy. Whats important here the fact the its a UNIQUE BLEND, which does not aim to only smell fresh or citrusy, or peppery, or like a specific genre which so is popular these days (smelling like chocolate, coffee or a tiramisú. The blend they created is definitely a stand alone, unique and super special smell which sets itself apart from anything I know. Its also very sexy. Very sexy. Its urban yet maintains a juicy vibe as well. Love this to bits. Performance is satisfying also! One of my best blind purchases!

I purchased this for my husband, but more as a gift for myself. He simply has little to no sense of smell so he never wore fragrance before. I connect emotions and memories to scent so the first gift I got him when we were dating was a "signature cologne". He liked all the searching and smelling (almost to pass out level!) to find him his perfect match. This fragrance is very stunning on him. Hes an artistic geek who is kind of into fashion but also into snowboarding. What I'm trying to say is I couldn't go out and pick him up Polo Sport because it would've been too preppy, all-american, football guy on him, Chrome by Azzaro wouldve been too Harley Riding tough guy. I suggest this scent to men with a sensitive but sexy side. Someone not afraid to be different. And maybe someone whos finding it hard to find a less macho scent without being overtly feminine.

This was another signature scent for me in high school and for a short time in college. Since then I've owned 2 more bottles, a 50ml I bought maybe 10 years ago and a 100ml purchased more recently. Unlike those before I can definitely tell this has been reformulated and we just hate when that happens. However this stuff has always "just worked" for me on an everyday grab and go basis. While being something basic it always had a unique factor to it. Jackfuit being an accord in the mix of a sweet/fresh aromatic with a hint of a barbershop vibe explains a lot because I never really knew exactly what separated it from the other's at the time not to mention Dominique Ropion had a hand in creating it. I'm so glad to be able to still get bottles as cheap as they are!

It is a nice fragrance for spring and summer nights. Relatively fewer sprays can be good for summer day too as it's easy to wear - refreshing in hot weather, warming in the cooler weather, good for a blind buy. Fresh, fruity, zesty and it has some slight woody and spicy notes. Office friendly, in my opinion even women can still wear this fragrance easily as it has some sweetness. It was ahead of it's time as it smells modern to this day. Moderate sillage and longevity. People who prefer thick dense scents or prefer a heavy monstrous sillage can avoid this.
