I have to write a review as a truly manly man. This is a white floral scent. This scent does open up with a women type perfume vibe for the first 5 mins, but turns CK One-ish in genre. It's no more feminine than that, so fellas chill out and give it a try, if you do like florals such as 4711 etc. After that, it is akin or similar to the other fragrance from this house bergamotto Marino which got me curious of this fragrance. It does NOT smell the same, but once again no more feminine than Marino. It settles down very well to a Dove or Caress soap vibe, which is beautiful on a man, like me, who is a heavy sweater. **Fragrance lesson. I notice that MOST men are phobic of smelling like a woman. News flash. Men natural produce MUSK, so a fragrance labeled or viewed as feminine is going to turn slightly masculin any way on you--natural PH. Also, light scents or florals tend to be very fresh and not overwhelming on us. Back to the fragance. It will not cloying because it is not obtrusive in nature. It is light and settles very fresh on clothes to a soapy or fabric jasmine vibe. Tested it. Ask my wife to smell it, she said it smelled good & didnt occur to her it is for women too. Fragrances give her a headache quick, and if she doesn't like it she will let you know quick. It passed the wife test. Oh, I went with 6/7 sprays in the heat too. Sillage is arm length for 2 hrs. Longevity is 4/5 hours on none sweaty skin. 5/6 on fabric 9/10 unisex for hot or warm days. Dove or Caress soap dry down. It makes men's clothes smell fabric softener fresh and skin out the shower fresh. It is a $70 unisex fragrance by a respected perfumer you can get for under $15...blank stare ...

I'm just discovering this one 25 years later. This was released in 1995 and I completely missed it until now. Better late than never. This is a beautiful, relatively strong, fresh floral, that is completely unisex, in my opinion. I'm wearing it today, and the top is quite strong and beautiful, with understated citrus and fruit notes, including bergamot, lemon, peach, mandarin, and sweet orange, with fresh florals like freesia, osmanthus, and jasmine. The rose is blended in well, and doesn't really protrude much. In the heart, a stronger, more indolic presence of white florals emerges. I'm not sure if that's just from the jasmine, or if a touch of indole was actually added, but it's lovely. The main spice I get is the coriander, not so much the nutmeg. Dries down with a very present osmanthus, musk and some woody notes, and just a hint of the indolic floral notes lingering. The longevity is good today. This is my first wearing and I've had varying experiences with longevity and performance with other perfumes in the past, so I will say...today, it's good. The projection and sillage aren't huge, but decent. Maybe an arm's length or a bit less for the first hour, then a bit closer to the skin after. The drydown is quite long, though. This is solid. I don't have anything in my collection quite like it. 8/10

A lovely splash! A fougere with citrus fruits and a lovely dry down with a waft of patchouli.. thats so addictive. I bought that iconic 100ml bottle with its bomb spray top. This one took me by surprise. Its like a hot summers day in Sicily and being splashed by the sea.. But not only the sea, the sea denched in citrus fruits. Mandarin and then the flowers too. Its so fresh zingy modern and chic... It was made in 1995 and my goodness its so now... Men and women have loved this for over 25 years... Its hard to find.. Online is the place I found it. I hope now that Ive found this it doesnt get discontinued.. You could wear this to work in a sharp suit to a law office carrying a portfolio case, or to a country lunch, or to the beach.. I love it and I can see it being someones signature.

I am wearing this fragrance today. It has been a while since I wore it last summer. Such a good white floral sandalwood fragrance. Very unisex for the men that are not bothered by floral notes. Moreover, I tried to get the male fragrance community aware of this gem. Why has the prices been creeping up? I believe this may be discontinued, if not please comment to let the community know the truth. It was $15-20 bucks on Ebay last year!! Now, it is about $30 at its cheapest... Most prices are $50 and above. Men and women fans of this one please stock up before the prices get close to $100. I do not think this fragrance is worth that price tag. Decent longevity if applied to clothes and skin-6 hours with 5 or 6 sprays.

این عطر را پسرم زمانیکه 7 ساله بود و به یک گالری جهت خرید یکی دوتا عطر مردانه رفته بودیم پسندید و بمن پیشنهاد داد و من هم آنرا خریدم. درابتدا چندان برایم جذاب نبود اما پس از چندروز که از آن استفاده کردم و نظراتی که اطرافیان و بستگانم درمورد بوی خوش آن بمن دادند بتدریج نظر مرا کاملا بسمت خودش جلب کرد و شیشه بزرگ 200 میلی گرمی را کمتر از یک سال تمام کردم و پس از آنهم متاسفانه دیگر گیرم نیامد. از کارهائیست که اگر مجدد ببینم حتما یکی دو تا شیشه آنرا خواهم خرید A VERY INTERRESTING PERFUME
