Cologne Twist

A delightful Cologne that feel very well crafted overall. Great Longevity for this kind of concentration (4h+). Very natural, fresh and clean type of scent, it knows what it does and does it well. My typical scent after shower to add that little touch of elegance. The fragrance does not smell cheap at all, it is in fact quite the opposite. Regarding the smell, it’s not a generic type of Cologne with that heavy typical lavender base. There is in fact no lavender at all in it. It is overall very citrusy with that bright lemon and bergamot that shows themselves right after the first spray which feel very natural. Then it evolves toward some sweet-herbal type of notes with clary sage and a hint of basil. Where this Cologne really distinguish itself is in the dry down with that rich blend of elemi resin mixed with cashmer Wood that adds a deepness to the fragrance. We go from an initial fresh splash to a more mature and elaborate base that is almost warmed up. Finally, I don't usually care about the shape of bottles, but I note that this one is nicely crafted considering the price.

This fragrance is a lovely surprise from a house that consistently proves you do not need a massive budget to get high-quality colognes. While it might not be a groundbreaking or wildly unique artistic creation, it excels at exactly what it sets out to do. It is the ultimate safe blind buy. If you need a reliable, easy-wearing daily driver to keep you feeling fresh through the scorching heat of summer, this affordable gem is a no-brainer.

Very good value for this perfume. Fresh, clean, versatile, perfect for spring and summer, during hot days. For sure, you need to love citrus. We can smell also the wood notes. Easy to wear, office compatible. 10/10 for man

I use the shower and I feel I am in a lemon tree garden

Really nice! Fresh and clean but not shampooish. It’s strong and has a bite. More masculine than feminine, in my opinion. I think it smells a bit like caipirinha.

I'm on the fence about whether or not it is too young for me. I favour perfumes that are based on naturalistic, real world notes rather than fantasy aroma chemicals, and this one has messed with my mind. The lovely opening is zesty lemon, then the main note I get is ginger; a warm, juicy ginger and there seems to be a little dash of mint - all quite natural. After that, a kind of synthetic/fantasy "woods" accord moves in - not ambroxan but something along those lines. I shouldn't like this part, but somehow it works really well and adds some heft. You get fresh, clean, warm. I find it closest to Dior Homme Cologne, and the Zara Imagination clone. If you don't share my hang-ups about synthetic base note boosters, then you will probably love this 🏖️.

I absolutely love this. I bought it in a set that included a bag and a 200 ml shower gel. Paid exactly 19.95 Euros on Black Friday. Comes in a very nice and elegant bottle, the smell is a light but wonderful citrus with some woody notes. I think this will be the perfect warm weather fragrance when I want to wear something easy and clean next spring/summer. Somewhat similar to Zara's original Vibrant Leather cologne and Mancera Lemon Line. The complete package and an excellent value. Easy 10/10.

Well, I was at the drugstore waiting for prescription meds and I saw this with tester strips, so I gave it a whiff and... I want to say it's crazy how close to Uden from Xerjoff this is... Extremely close... But probably less than a third of the price.... I don't think I could tell them apart. It smells great! Lile Uden, makes me think of a lemon in a basket made of ice with roses around it. Very enjoyable, uplifting.

Smells like match point cologne by lacoste. Smells a little better, doesn't last as long. About the same price. I prefer the original. This has some enduring modern qualities. Not sure how I really feel about it.

@raiza1990 I loved the caipirinha reference lol my favorite drink!

Marketed as a fragrance for men on the Roger and Gallet page.
