Jaguar Innovation

I decided to blind buy this one yesterday because I typically enjoy Jaguar scents. I read the reviews and they seemed confused with what this is. I looked at the comparisons and someone compared this to a Mugler scent and I had to unvote that one, lol, this smells nothing like Mugler pure shot, not even 10% close. I can explain this scent quite well actually. This cologne is a medicinal smelling scent that is almost an exact shoe in for RASASI OUDH AL MISK FOR MAN. The difference between the two however is that this one is a much better blended scent. If this didn’t have the citrus of the orange and bergamot then this would be gross and a total bust. It has just a small amount of sweetness, but it doesn’t last long and luckily by then the vanilla starts to kick in. It’s almost hospital medicinal like, but goes in a slightly different direction than ROAMFM. The main stars in this one are Patchouli, Vanilla, Wood,Citrus, and the leather. The spice from the coriander doesn’t allow this to become too sweet, and the violet leaf matches the wood, and neither overpower eachother. This is what I wish that Rasasi bottle I mentioned above would have been like, I like this because it’s almost middle eastern smelling, but with a western approach. Instead of Oud it’s Cedar here, It’s almost a little more of a no nonsense type of scent, so it’s not playful or versatile. I really like this one, but I understand it won’t be for everyone, and I’m still trying to figure out when and where this scent would be good to use. In my opinion this is a date night fragrance for the fall or winter. Solid 7/10 for me, and the performance is great with this one too. I get about 6 hours.

It is a great Woody Oriental fragrance, Refined, Rich , Airy, Charismatic and Unique , A Modern perfume with classic style and well-blended. I'm a big fan of Jaguar perfumes, Behind this Brand is Lalique House: Art and Quality. One of the best Jaguar Men's fragrances. It opens up with fresh spicy , green and floral notes in the background then dry down is vanilla woody. This is perfect for the spring, summer and fall. The Coriander and Patchouli notes are dominant in this scent. I really enjoy it and I love Jaguar Innovation EDT for Men. Longevity is good. Highly Recommended. Two Thumbs Up. Bravo Monsieur Michel Almairac ! Rating : 8.5 / 10

A lovely vanilla and soapy scent. Reminds me of Lalique pour Homme. It's quite inexpensive and smells gorgeous. There is a similarity to Ulric de Varens UDV or perhaps Zino. Innovation is great value as are all Jaguar fragrances. It has a lot of earthy character too. I think this is an excellent scent with a really pleasant silage and excellent staying power. The person who blended Zino cannot be wrong. An overlooked and under-rated scent.

I cannot believe some of the comparisons to others frags but thought I'd ad my own spin on this. This frag open very fresh just a tad citrusy and dries down nearly exactly a clone of Vince Camuto 'Eterno' I kid you not and for $20 or less how could you go wrong? Only this outlasts Eterno by about 7 hours!

Jaguar Innovation Men EDT opens with a moderate projection of intense, sharp, citrus, woody, and leather notes. The bergamot and mandarin are fresh, sharp, refreshing, and short-lived, they come up quickly but also start to quickly dissipate. The coriander adds a soft spicy touch; the cedar and patchouli also participate with fresh woody and fresh green grassy notes, the cedar is prominent. The leather is noticeable, not strong, but projecting, similarly, the musk is a projecting accord but not a prominent note. The vanilla is just a soft sweet touch. The most noticeable changes in this fragrance are the citrus, spicy, and leather opening which changes to a leather, cedar, patchouli, and spicy dry-down. Once Jaguar Innovation has reached its full dry-down, it can be summarized as a moderate projection, cedar, and fresh patchouli fragrance with soft leather, spicy, musky, and citrus accords. The fragrance feels airy, diurnal, elegant, fresh, gentle, modern, masculine, mild, modern, slightly musky, playful, relaxing, sharp, sporty, slightly sweet, versatile, woody, and very pleasant.
