Zeus

This is a wonderful fragrance. That smells great... If you are one of those fragrance snobs, that scream and get triggered over anything synthetic. Then this is a frag for you. This is a house from the U.A.E that used natural fragrance oils, at a great price point. This has a lovely Granny Smith apple scent & amber, strong and dominate throughout the fragrance stages. Must have fragrance, if you can get this bottle please do. But avoid eBay. Nothing more to say. Hope this helps. Update: Thanks to xxxjohny for the update, that this house is still in business. I used six sprays...both wrist, back & front of my neck, chest, and front of my shirt. Will I buy this again? Yes. What's the strength of this? EDP. Does this fragrance enter BEAST MODE, good, just okay or weak sauce at best? Good. It's similar to: Invictus, Invictus Aqua (2016 or 2018), Invictus Intense, Armaf Aura, Armaf Rixos, Armaf Oros(Oros Pour Homme Oros), Antonio Banderas King of Seduction, Antonio Banderas King of Seduction Absolute, Azzaro Wanted, Azzaro Freeride, Eros Versace. So if you like any of those, you'll most likely enjoy this. Can you use it as a unisex scent? No. Am I willing to trade this fragrance? No. Should You Skip It, Sample It First or Blind Buy It? Blind buy worthy. Is it the old, new formulation? Old. What's its availability; in production, limited edition or discontinued? In production.

ZEUS... IT'S NOT IMMORTAL ALTHOUGH IT'S NOT FAR FROM IT [short review] Although I have had a Zeus flask for more than two years now, this fragrance still puzzles me a bit for its value for money. Sometimes I like to wear an "Invictus" fragrance - fruity, fresh and sweet - and I still prefer Zeus over the other various choices I have. Other Kelsey Berwin fragrances I own - like Al Mazyoona or Midnight Oud - also left me with an impression of excellent value as well. Kelsey Berwin is not well known as a designer, producing a different perfume type in UAE, but with a short base of product offerings. It lacks an identity (considering both juice and glass; no two of its flasks are similar), but it excels with its target of using natural products, and with its motto that the quality should be accessible to everyone. Zeus is a good example of it, stating a presence somewhere between the more marine Invictus and the more fruity blue fragrances. I rank it almost on a pair with a blue fragrance I like very much: Mauboussin Private Club (but without any pepper). It has a fair performance, a nice spicy & fresh fruity opening (cardamom, green apple and florals), its sweetness is not cloying (lily and lavender with patchouli), and it has a very decent woody dry-down (vetiver and cedar). Are you looking for a decent & inexpensive all-around natural scent, sweet, fresh, and with a nice flask? Zeus might be a good option... and for a Middle East fragrance it has a very nice flask indeed. Music: Robbie Williams - "Beyond The Sea"

Thanks to Lee (lockon) for sending a decant of this to me in our most recent swap.. There must be something wrong with my nose cause I get a piney freshness in this one..Which is very likable.. It is very very similar to invictus which my fiancé and I love.. Glad I tried it.. It seems hard to get in the US.. Rating 7.0/10

Very nice fragrance. Tottaly similar to Invictus, both scent and performance. The bottle feel heavy and with a good presentation and for 1/4th of the Invictus price. The sprayer and cap are good.

Lockon - thanks for your review. I have only small update, this fragrance is not discontinued. I know it because I am in direct contact with factory;-)

Great, great fragrance! Even better than you think. I ́m happy to see that this fragrance is in Fragrantica ́s data.

I've had Kelsey Berwin Zeus since the Fall of 2016. In a nutshell, I find it to be a synthetically sweet-fruity fragrance that reminded me primarily of Invictus, with a few hints of Bleu de Chanel, and a prominent fruity accord along the lines of something like a toned-down Mancera Wild Fruits. While the word synthetic denotes a less than desirable quality, it's a very pleasant synthetic vibe that doesn't strike me as cheap or annoying in any way. While it is a nice fragrance, that fruit note screams a bit too loudly for my tastes and I find myself preferring Bleu de Chanel and Invictus much more. The drydown is a mixture of a synthetic fruits and a sandalwood accord with a fresh aromatic vibe enveloping this scent. I also sense a fair amount of ambroxan pushing forward 20-30 minutes into the drydown. Performance is decent in that I get 6-7 hours of longevity and it projects well for the first 1-2 hours and moderately overall on my skin. IMO, Zeus is a decent clubbing scent that has certain juvenile mass-appeal, but there are other better-smelling and better-performing clubbing scents on the market. I give this one a like due to solid mass-likability and decent price. However, I would take my money and buy a bottle of Rasasi Hawas, which is a King of the Compliments. One last note, occasionally the drydown of Zeus reminds me a lot of a fragrance I own called Jacques Fath Yang 2. Not identical, but a very similar vibe.

to my nose the apple is really prominent here, is the first note I noticed and it never really fades off till the end. In the beginning, I could see the similarity between Invictus and BDC, like a mix of the two, but then that apple note made pop up in my mind Versace Eros, since then, to me this smells more like Versace Eros than the other two. It's cheap ( something like 16 euros ) but it doesn't smell cheap, it's synthetic but not bad or annoying, sweet but not bubblegummy sweet, overall composition is not bad at all. Projection 2 full hours and longevity 6-7 hours on my skin. I wouldn't consider it an Invictus clone but more a hybrid of different popular mass appealing scents, to me as I said, the Versace Eros vibe is really prominent here. For 16 euros can't complain, for some night out, clubbing or casual settings, works quite good.

Smells like Invictus. Very potent in the begining with decent longevity. The price is excelent for the quality. No regrets!

Sharp, vibrant, synthetic. Marginally annoying / penetrating smell.

The perfume starts with a 'battle among the reviewers: who is it like ?: Invictus, BDC or Sauvage! Although it is a balanced fight, I feel closer to the Azzaro Chrome Legend, but without the metallic part (tested simultaneously). Although it is in production, the rumor related to extinction has considerably increased the price (but so, the quality-price ratio gets the 10th mark) It is a fruity aromatic fragrance, with a high persistence and acceptable adhesion. It does not show aquatic notes, but has a very prominent green apple (as with the Azzaro Chrome Legend). In conclusion, it is a fresh, fruity and moderately sweet flavor, perfect for summer and especially for young people.

Not impressed with this perfume it smells little bit artificial genetic it has some weird bitter note witches creating some repulsive reaction on my skin at least for me. Bottle looks amazing though and people who love new wave in perfumes with strong but will be aggressive beginning and fruity smell will like this nevertheless for me nothing special 5 of 10.

Good for the price really....invictus type bubblegum....if you like that its worth
