Jaguar Performance

This is one scent that you need to give a full wear before making any conclusions about it. The top is quite fresh and green with the mint and cypress mixing with the herbal citrus and is quite a nice fresh smelling mix too! You could make the mistake of thinking it’s a summer scent. But give it some time, say an hour and that top softens a lot while the heart comes up, introducing a very satisfying and quite strong projecting warm spiciness introduced by the nutmeg and sage. It still retains some of the freshness from the top notes and added violet though, but overall the composition changes quite dramatically to a much more warm spicy freshness that’s far more suited to autumn wearing. At that point it starts to project very strongly too, and in a good way! I find the nutmeg is perhaps a little under voted too - it adds quite a lot of warm spiciness to the heart. The cypress remains from start to finish but at no point does it dominate, its very well blended to aid the fresh aspects of the scent without shouting over everything else. Perfect! The carnation adds a slight old school vibe I guess, but despite that in no way does this scent smell dated or old school in its overall tone, but quite modern in fact. This warm spicy freshness carry’s on for the most part of the wear and becomes a closer to skin scent at about the 5 hr mark but despite that stays closely noticeable and present for a few hours after that. For a cheapy this is excellent value. It’s also a superb layering scent. I’ve matched it to other warm spicy scents like Just Cavalli I Love Him with all its fruity warm spicy complimentary notes and both together went to another level! I have all kinds of layering in mind for it. Very excited about it because it’s going to be my autumn play about scent where I get to experiment with some fun ways to mix it up! Very versatile. Recommend! EDIT: I’m also noticing since reviewing that the drydown in this scent reminds me somewhat of the drydown of Acqua di Parma Colonia Intensa. There’s a musky incense aroma that prevails in the drydown reminiscent of Intensa. Subtle wafts of nuances of the mint and cypress don’t make it exact, but despite that it captures something of the feel of that scent. With that said it also seems quite heavily influenced by weather & temperature in how it smells and can be a bit changeable from one wear to the next!

For $12 it's hard to find a better fragrance than Jagaur Performance. It's a green and fresh spicey that gives a clean Spring morning vibe. For some reason, I get green apple in this, although it's not listed in the notes. Despite it's name, I'm not impressed with the performance of this one. Of course, for $12 I can't expect much. It lasts a couple of hours on me and becomes a skin scent quickly before completely disappearing. It doesn't project much, which is fine with me because I wear colognes mostly for my own enjoyment and close encounters with the wife. This is nowhere near the beast of its father Jaguar For Men... which still is a powerhouse. In contrast, this is like the youngest son of JFM, quiet, innocent, and not yet ready to explore the world. I initially bought this for my summer rotation, but after smelling it I realized it's much better for the spring because it's more green than it is blue, if you know what I mean. Of course, you can wear this anytime if you want. I just like to wear my own fragrances by the season. I can't see anybody hating Jaguar Performance. It's inoffensive, versatile, unique, and affordable enough to add to any serious collection.Overall rating 7.5/10

It's not a known rock star. It's not a multi oscar awarded artist. It's just a very underrated summer fragrance for men that do remember some very expensive niche fragrances... but it's not trying to clone any other market offer. It's a unique scent. On top of it it has a well above average performance in longevity and projection. I would not swap it for any 4 times more expensive well known summer scent. A couple of them arise to my mind. Another vibe I get from this frag is some similarities with Loewe's Esencia witch is a very different (and also excellent) fragrance. It's difficult to buy a better summer day time EDT at the price you may purchase Jaguar Performance. Its spicy sharp scent and cypress makes this fragrance quite sexy and manly. This is easily the best Jaguar frag together with Jaguar Gold.

A fresh sea breeze over wet grass mainly for me. Got it on today which is a freezing snowy day. First real full wearing. Hope to use it in the summer when I'm out and about and after the gym on my shifts off work. It's perfect for that but inoffensive enough for any kind of day use in my opinion. I've had it on two hours now and a minor criticism is that performance appears so fair to be middling. That said, it should sparkle in the coming hot weather and I was in hospital for an operation yesterday which due to it's nature means I'm a bit dehydrated today. Price is very reasonable for the quality and it's so-far mediocre performance on me is something I suspect won't apply later on in the year.

This is amazing. Like the guy below said, it smells like nothing I have in my collection. A lot of fragrances tend to run together and overlap identities of others, almost like clones. But this one is very unique. Fresh, clean, with a nice punchy, modern, oakmoss. Very soapy. I like that. The best I can compare it to is Mugler Cologne if there were an extreme of an extreme version. Mugler Cologne Extreme squared. With a nice, classy, mossy twist. That's the best I can compare it to, but it really does stand in a league of its own. This took me by surprise.

JAGUAR PERF(ECT)ORMANCE.! I bought a 100ml for 9.99 + 3.99 deliv. from wowcher, It was a blind buy. Well, it is better than I expected!! This is a pleasant blend of floral - pine - citrus - leathery - imagine yourself inside a luxury car a nice sunny day! It is 100% for men, classic, mature but not dated. If you are 30 + it's fine! I think it is mostly for summer but I believe it's very OK for any season. I just order another one for back up! Although not the same it reminds me a lot Cerruti 1881 Pour Homme. This is one of my very favorites!!

I love this stuff and suprisingly am impressed with Jaguar fragrances. I have the original Jaguar for men which also smells very good. This stuff is like jaguar for men with lighter notes. It is spicy but also powdery. Its fresh and clean and I can sense the birch, pimento which gives its spicyness and suprisingly the palm leaf... reminds me of the palmetto leaves in Georgia where I spend some summers. Its inexpensive, smells really good and fairly light. I will be in this stuff constantly this summer.

Blind bought this yesterday for $30 NZD based on some of the reviews here. Pleasantly surprised with it. It's great for everyday summer wear. Lasts quite a long time. Projects for about 3 hours then becomes a nice, refreshing skin scent. Would totally recommend this to anyone looking for a summer cheapie. Longevity: 7/10 (lasts about 8-10 hrs) Sillage : 8/10 (about an arms length) Smell : 9/10 (amazing fruity smell) Overall : 9/10 (excellent quality for price)

Wearing today because it's a little cooler day as we enter September. It's my third wearing this spring and summer and it still amazes me how good this smells. It's an absolute must if you enjoy fresh green fragrances. Note: Jaguar Performance is nothing like Esencia pour Homme by Loewe. That one is a strong gorgeous piney frsgrance ideal for cold winter days. JP is a green freshie perfect for the gym, sports and spring/summer mornings.

Incredible scent, really WOW. If I had smelt this before knowing it is a Jaguar, I would have assumed it is done by Versace or Guerlain. First time I LOVE floral notes in Men fragrances. From the first spray, I feel/think of morning dew, green grass, sea breeze. It is a light fresh green floral fragrance which is perfectly blended. Re-buying is a must. Longevity 5+ hours, moderate projection. Spring/Summer scent. Highly recommended.

Man what the hell! I have spent a few hundred bucks on different types of colognes and this one right here almost made me pass out. It’s so good man and so cheap I can stop smelling it. I received this by mail yesterday and I took it with me to work and would sniff the sprayer thing every chance I got. The crazy part it’s like dirt cheap last long smells good as hell try it I do hope you enjoy it as much as I did

The best fresh green masculine scent I've ever had. It has a very natural smell of green plants. Isn't unisex, but is almost unisex. Its elegance and sophistication makes it close to the style of masculine bvlgari scents (different smell, similar style). Fresh, elegant, original, with moderate sillage and longevity. All the other scents I tried from Jaguar were warm, this was the only one fresh.

This might be better described as a "green spicy" instead of a woody spicy. The cypress, sage, and nutmeg lend the spice while the violet leaf and the basil combine to not only give a dose of green scent but also accentuate the greenness in the cypress. It is a touch soapy, but none-the-less a very pleasant fragrance worth purchasing or at least trying, especially if you like green fragrances.

very similar in the scent of quorum silver...its bright..light..peppery...spices that please the mind even refresh the palate.....anyway this stuff is extremely under rated!!!..a very modest proud fragrance...n cheap as shit.LOL...awesome!!...beautifull untypicall variance of a spice blend here...very light aromatic and moderate strength...beautifull smelling..8.0 out of 10

For a scent that uses violet leaf and mint as prominent notes, this thing has very good longevity. I usually get about 2 hours of good projection using this out of a five hour scent life. This is one of my summer favorites AND it is very inexpensive. Not to mention, you don't smell this on anyone else, so its still unique. Winning.

I freaking LOVE this stuff!! For $18.00 with shipping is a ridiculous value. I get a very floral vibe rather than herbal with this juice. I will be rebuying this as long as its for sale. Top 20 in my collection. My dad almost stole this from me when he first smelled this. I bought him a bottle for Fathers Day. Rating: 9.0/10

This is my 2nd bottle, nice herbal summer scent that just put me in a good mood, fresh like Irish Spring soap bar, I will be wearing it more as I'm starting my summer travel & this will not offend anyone on a plane or public transportation, lasts for a good 7 hours, worth a lot more than I paid, I love it.

I own about 4 or 5 bottles of Jaguar frags and this one is my favorite by a mile. Quite surprised that a scent like this has a car brand attached to it. Very impressed by the quality and blend used here. Aromatic, fresh and very masculine. For the 30+ crowd this is a no-brainer.

Being discontinued the price went from $16 (2019) to $80 today. Do NOT pay that unless you are a collector! It's very generic and frankly, boring. Further, you can easily get similar fragrances for much less such as an Adidas or other fresh/sporty herbal based scents.

This is one of my top blind buys ever. Very unique smelling, fresh spicy kind of scent, perfect for warm weather as well as autumn. Performs well with good longevity (5-6 hours) and decent projection. Can be dressed up too. Absolute hidden gem. Love it.
