1725

I'm already starting to miss the time when the comments here only talked about perfumes, without all the woke bs. there is a very nice word UNISEX which means that the product can be suitable for both men and women, not gender free, not androgynous, not nonbinary, simply UNISEX. people, don't bring your woke infection to this page, no one cares how you feel today, male or female, no one cares how many made up nice sounding words you know, this page is for fragrance enthusiasts and everything related to fragrances, so keep it that way, ok ? :) the smell is wonderful. very mild, as soon as I bought the bottle and smelled the scent, I thought it smelled like a prelude to sex, I don't know why, but after wearing this scent for about a week, I understand that the temptation here is very subtle, airy, this scent doesn't scream, it calmly invites you to come closer, this juice, body heat and light sweat creates something magical that cannot be resisted. if I were a woman and my date would smell like this, I would really only think about making love, really... :D I don't understand how such a correlation between the smell and the name of the perfume is possible :D this smell really doesn't leave any gaps, the women around you will know it clearly why did you came here ;)

I do not really know what to say about this fragrance, I really don’t. I hate liquorice, I hate Star Anise, but the reviews all gave me an indicator that this was very well blended, and ll the notes seemed so haphazard that they all must play a symphony I've never been acquainted with before. Oh well, I decided to buy it, and test it, and my oh my. First and fore mostly, I can not believe how unique this is, I have never, ever smelled anything quite like this, nor does it conjure up images of it being alike anything else I have smelled. I also Ama again doubly shocked that this was released 22 years ago. I am about to be blasphemous and say, Fredric Malle, Carnal Flower, POAL, Must Ravaguer have all been trumped by this. This sits in the classic, unique and so, oh so delightful pedestal all on its own. I am horrendous at describing or painting pictures of how the different notes and accords dance with one another, and so many others have already described in exquisite and artistic detail. I am merely here to say, this is simply gorgeous, to another level. it is extremely classy, very elegant, I thought initially that it would be worn on occasions, but I have a confession, I have not stopped wearing it, since I bought it. This is must, this is sublime.

"Cookie Fougère" of Licorice, Marzipan & Lavender... This is so good. It's quite sweet, and the almond-vanilla has a paste texture that evokes marzipan. I agree with reviewer alphairone below who describes it as "An anisette cookie fougere, sprinkled lightly with powdered sugar and resting on a hassock of lavender...this barbershop is adjacent to an Italian bakery." 1725 was composed as a tribute to Casanova, and I could imagine the late Heath Ledger wearing this while filming Casanova (film 2005). The discovery set insert reads: "Giacomo Girolamo Casanova: a man whose name has come to symbolize seduction. For every Casanova, here is an eau de parfum inviting intense pleasure with amber fern, find woody accords and touches of sparkling Italian bergamot. " I get some reminders of Le Male Jean Paul Gaultier & Hypnotic Poison Dior. and for an oversimplified comparison this could be a masculine version of Hypnotic Poison, or in a family of sweet almond-anise scents including Loverdose Diesel, Lolita Lempicka Lolita Lempicka and Hypnotic Poison Dior. It makes sense, since Hypnotic Poison is considered a femme fatale scent, while Casanova is reputed for his notorious amorous adventures. It's a love for me. 10/10. Enjoy!

A fresh, clean fragrance suitable (in my opinion) for both sexes. I am not sure how I would imagine Mr Casanova to smell - like this? Perhaps... 1725 is certainly an attractive barbershop-style fragrance that is hard to dislike. The typical descriptions enter the nose/brain upon first sniff - 'clean', 'fresh', etc. Lavender is present from the off, and also throughout. Vanilla is what helps make 1725 a potential scent for both sexes. A hint of almond and warming amber. In fact, the combination of lavender and vanilla makes me think of JPG Le Male - only a more mature version. Fairly linear scent throughout. Ideal for work, casual days, etc. If you are looking for a projection beast in 1725, then it is not for you. 1725 sits very close to the skin from the off, surrounding you in your own little sweet-lavender-bubble. Longevity, however, is slightly greater - six hours and it should still be noticeable. So, as I mentioned, what is not to like about smelling clean and fresh? Performance, if that is your thing. If not, and the odd delightful whiff of yourself every now and again throughout the day is what you want, 1725 should be a welcome fragrance in any collection.

Soft Seducer (Sylvie Jourdet, 2001) Bottle Design: Olivia Grandperrin Scentrack: Art of Noise – Love Beat Casanova opens up with the beautiful and brisk grapefruit, accompanied by the anise, and clean, soft and full bodied lavender. Everything is so innocent, fluffy, white and airy. Like a chilly morning in a lavender plantation. White almonds give almost some Amaretto accord. It has the softest and the most expensive barbershop vibe I have ever encountered. Soft, creamy and visually pale. Maybe it's too easy to say for fragrance is beautiful, but it perfectly describes 1725. Absolutely stunning to me. Perfectly balanced and tweaked fragrance. Casanova’s calming sensuality is so alluring. To its drydown Casanova becomes a little bit darker with just a touch of warm amber, creamy vanilla and sandalwood. A semi gourmand unisex barbershop perfection. One of the best, if not the best barbershop fragrance. A true beauty in the classic form, like an Andrea Palladio’s project in a new millennium form. Old charmer in a new era, a seduction at the first sniff. Highly recommended. Rating: 10/10
