n,866

-I wish this smelled like Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche but it doesn't! It smells like Acqua di Gio for men, tbh. It's like that with a little faint hint of an apple. - I got the sample kit and this was my wildcard fragrance and I ended up buying a FB of this scent. I've never worn it but it's also a very summery scent that I purchased in December. I'm a woman in my 30's btw. I live in Palm Springs, CA. -It's a freshie and pulls more masculine than feminine. I'm really surprised I picked this one because I'm not usually into uni scents and prefer super feminine floral scents. There was another one that I loved that fit my usual bill but I also loved this one and wanted something different. I live in the desert and so I will have plenty of time to wear hot weather fragrances and very little time to wear cold weather scents so it makes sense why I haven't worn it yet. -I hope I enjoy wearing this in hot weather, I always loved ADG for men and seriously considered wearing it. I love when men wear it, it's so good! I don't care how basic it is! (Actually it's not if you look at the note structure!) This is a spring summer day scent.

Love this fragrance. The brightness of the bergamot and the sensuality of the vetiver are the most prominent to me, and they create a warm, active scent that I find fairly captivating. It's unisex but with little detectable femininity, though I'm not very bothered by the "gender" of fragrances and happily wear this as a woman. The bergamot is more present upon first spray, but as it dries down the vetiver dominates and it gets warmer. Can't help sniffing my wrists. Like most Noteworthy scents I have tried, it's not the longest lasting, which for these notes at this moderate price point I would expect - I'd say it lasts tops around 3 hours. Definitely recommend including this in the personalized sample set you can purchase from Noteworthy. 8.5/10.

Fresh, Bright, Clean, Aromatic This was a total winner for me in their affordable and customizable sample kit. Definitely have been stopped while wearing - one lady even told me she was trying to figure out who smelled so good in the store for six aisles until she found me. This one is more of a skin scent unless you wear in your hair and on clothing. I find the initial soray momentarily sharp with the ginger and vetiver, but that dries down to a your-skin-but-better on me.

I love this. It is a bit spicy, a bit sweet and projects well. Reasonable price.

I keep wanting this one to mellow down and warm up. I find the juniper and cedar pine-y notes really strong and sharp. They are fresh, but like, imagine that instead of smelling the piney scent in the fragrance of the forest, juniper leaves and spruce tips are being crushed in front of your nose in large quantities. The bergamot blends in really well at the beginning and adds a sweetness to the foresty notes, but doesn't last very long. I would prefer a little bit of sweetness and roundness to this scent.

This is lovely. It's clean and fresh spicy/woody. It dries down with a really delicate floral, and a bit of warmth from the tonka, but still keeps a light citrus of the bergamot. On first spray this feels too sharp for me, but after an hour or so it's actually quite nice. Feels precariously balanced in a wonderful way. The sillage definitely gets lighter over time, but I applied this morning before work at 0600 and it's now 2300 and still going, though closer.

Citrusy, Woodsy, Aromatic, Earthy, Fresh Smells like eating an apple while picnicking under a tall pine tree in May. Very fresh spicy, dry earthy, woodsy scent. I personally love this genre of fragrance and would like love this scent more if I hadn't smell a few other Noteworthy scents in the same general family that I like more. My favorites in this family from Noteworthy are n,345, n,619. Sillage: 3/5 Projection: 3/5 Longevity: 3/5 Leans unisex

I took the noteworthy scent test and am more woody/smoky. I was sent a bunch of floral. They sent me 4 more new scents. I love the 866 for my hub and I love the 551 for me. IF the scent lasts, I will be ordering the 2 bottles of these.

This was my second favorite of the 4 samples they sent me in my customized kit. Very clean and bright. Not particularly deep, but cheerful nonetheless.

Sample from a Noteworthy discovery box. Love the concept of answering some questions and the perfumer putting together a box 4 fragrances you may enjoy according to those answers. I was a little worried in advance, as they only have a few dozen choices overall + felt it would be pretty hard to find a fragrance for EVERYONE, especially someone who collects frags. This was the first scent I tried, as it was touted as my best match. Of course it is. This smells like every cologne ever. I'm practically insulted by this. It smells like Curve. Not a winner for the more discerning fragrance buyer, and too niche of an idea for your little nephew. Just buy him Curve and it'll hit the same wavelength, he won't have to answer questions + will likely move on to something cooler when he gets a little older. It's also way cheaper. Costs less time, money and effort to just grab any old bottle of cologne and hope for the best for this generic disappointment.

Spicy and a bit dark. Electric. The musk is stronger, absolutely. Deeper, rich. Heavier, and I'm feeling the energetic city influence. Very lux. The apple and ginger sparkle. Green and fresh vetiver. Feels more like a classic perfume. But it reminds me of so many perfumes I've smelled in shops. Not very distinctive, too heavy and obvious. I don't even want to test it on my skin.

The notes of this sounded appealing, so it was the first one I tried out of the samples I received. At first it gave off a strong, soapy citrus scent, a bit like dishwashing liquid. A few minutes later, I got a slight hint of something sweet, that promised to become warmer and more complex; maybe it was the tonka. Unfortunately, this didn't last, and finally developed into a strong, unchanging aquatic-ish note that reminded me of the Light Blue Pour Homme perfume strips that ruined many a magazine a decade or so ago. After a few tries, I was finally able to wash it off.

I received a sample of this in my discovery kit and it's a heavy lime masculine fragrance. It smells like toms deodorant and I can't stand the smell. VERY sharp and there is no longevity to it, definitely a skin scent. 4/10
