Metro Black

One of my daughters gave me a bottle of Metro Black a few years ago and...well, it's got youthful, generic, department store vibe going on, for sure. However, I find it to be quite wearable and actually like it. Moreover, I will cherish my bottle of Metro Black, along all the bottles of Brut and others, simply because my daughters gave them to me. Metro Black is a youthful woody-spicy fragrance, with perhaps a whisper of a coffee accord, that is probably best suited for a Fall evening. But it is versatile and I find that I can wear it to the office when paired with business casual. Performance could be better in that this fragrance lasts around 4-hours on my skin and sit softly after the first 30-minutes. It's a like from me because it's decent inexpensively priced cologne. However, it will occupy a special place on my shelves since it's from my daughters. Cheers.

On the first spray it has a coffee note and reminds me of TM Angel Men. The coffee and other notes fade very quickly leaving a very strong musk smell. I was disappointed to lose the coffee. Not terrible, but it went from the initial WOW to just ok

The only guys cologn at Rue that hasn't grown on me yet. It's missing a note on here. It has Orange, Musk, Fresh Cut Grass, and Coffee Beans. I think the citrus and grass work well together, but when the musky coffee hits, it all goes downhill. I don't really enjoy it, but alot of guys aged 14-17 come into the store and buy it. If you like citrusy musky smells, this is deffinately your fragrance.

Finally found this after years of searching. I got a bottle of this in a little mini set years and years ago for school. Just smelling it really brings back memories. I love it. It’s such a simple scent but still really unique imo. It has a similar spicy coffee vibe to intoxicated by kilian or a*men by mugler. It’s really warm and inviting but has this nice bright zest of citrus that keeps it from being too dark or too dense. Can perfectly be worn year around. Lasts forever as well. For a simple frag from a clothing store, it’s really well made. It’s a shame it’s not produced anymore :(

I bought this to help a friend with her fragrance sales at Rue21 because it was the best offering out of all their male scents. What I enjoyed about it was that it was a more mature smell without being old. I received many compliments from girls on it, and one told me it was her favorite scent when we were getting close after a date. It's perfect for a young guy looking to stand out from the deluge of Hollister and AXE mimics out there, and I'm considering picking up another bottle because I prefer the smell to most of the insanely expensive offerings from houses like Hermes.
