Salvatore Ferragamo Subtil Pour Homme

This one really grew on me! I get a juicy vibe from the orange, it's very versatile (even works in hot weather). With my first 1/4 bottle I thought that it was really weak in projection as others have said, but after that I get solid projection with 7-8 sprays, and longevity is good (8 hrs). I don't know if I wasn't staying enough before or if I'm just crazy, but now I consistently get good projection. It isn't super unique but I find it different enough that it doesn't remind me of any other frag in specific. If you are looking for an elegant, office friendly, versatile, aquatic-like (without being an actual aquatic) fragrance for around $20 for 100ml I would definitely recommend giving this a try.

Bought this when it came out several years ago. One of the very few perfumes I’ve managed to go through a whole bottle and bought another one. Seriously good stuff. I wore this fragrance EVERYWHERE. To dates, clubs, work, etc. this was my go to. This is perfect for warm weather but I wore it in every weather. The performance was ok. The sillage wasn’t monster. It lasts for a few hours. But the scent is a winner. Blind buy? Well... for the price, it’s definitely a safe bet. Not sure if they still make it though. Try this out. I’m sure you’ll love it.

I don't get the hate on this, especially since no two haters have the same complaint. Too much violet, or dirty ginger, or sweaty vibes? I don't get any of that. Jacques Polge was the perfumer for this one, and the esteemed Varanis Ridari says that this was the precursor to Polge's Bleu De Chanel a short time later. Also has more than a passing similarity to Versace Pour Homme. Yes, it fades after five hours, but that is what blue/freshies do. This is one of my all-time favorite summer fragrances, and it is cheap as chips.

Really nice clean smelling fragrance with a blue powdery, citrusy vibe that sticks around through most of its life. Limited projection but decent longevity. Great if you want to smell extra fresh out of the shower, or if you want something for the gym/ office, or casual events, this one is nice and is very inoffensive . Also a very cool bottle and a low price so can't go wrong with this one.

Subtil is nice and fresh with that same backbone of the original. This is also a bit greener and more pleasant with some orange in there. The dry down after a couple of hours smells really good. This also smells close to the Acqua Essenziale line from SF. I give this a 8.5/10 Edit: This makes me think of lemon lime or citrus soda. It's good but doesn't last long so keep spraying!

A must have in my book. Lasts a very long time. Although I always use lotion before I spray. Fresh at first, and mild afterwards but very pleasant. Always get compliments with this one. I use CK One skin moisturizer with it or coo water after shave. They both give a good mix.

This is a beautiful one. Definitely not common. It has good similarity with the nettle note of "Dunhill Black". and also some unique spicy notes of the original SF Pour homme (the transparent bottle) and its fig note. Unique, enjoyable and beautiful.

My husband owns it. Drydown is gorgeous! This perfume starts to blossom in 3-4 hrs after an initial application. Sexy and appealing. One of those which make the woman close her eyes and dream about something pleasant.

I really enjoy this cologne. The perfect blend of fresh-cleanliness and fun-playfulness. Great bottle.

Ok, I went and did what someone said here in the reviews... I just sprayed lavishly all over without hesitation up and down like if it was a body spray... and added 2 spritzes of declaration on the back of my ears, and when I got to work immediately got noticed by my coworker next to me, I asked her which one was the one she actually smelled because I could smell more the two declaration spritzes than the "subtil" by ferragamo, but she said it was the ferragamo the one she smelled. So I guess, it really gets notice if you do this, I mean just spray it lavishly and will get complements, I got a couple more after hers during the day, and my overall opinion, this is a gentle cologne that won't offend anyone and I think it would perform differently in a very hot summer day, I will need to try that and make an update on this review. Today it was very springy cool day, so I'm sure it would be different in a hot weather. Well after all no complains, I don't know if I would by it again, but will certainly will keep it until I use it all. Update: I am wearing in a hot summer day, but I do not feel to much difference on it's performance. I will continue spraying it up and down when I get to wear it... ;-)

An inoffensive and generic fragrance. Subtil has bright orange citrus, spicy pepper, and cardamom as its dominant notes, so while it's definitely pleasant, there's no wow factor to it. Projection is only fair, and it doesn't last more than four hours or so on my skin, so it's best worn as a casual daytime fragrance when you'll only be out for a couple of hours. Its biggest advantage is that it's very affordable and you get a lot of juice for your money. Also, for what it's worth, the bottle design reminds me of the twisting glass and steel of luxury resorts in Vegas; it's modern, classy, and looks great on the shelf. Subtil is good if you want a low-key scent that won't overwhelm anyone, but keep in mind that there are a lot of very similar fragrances that do what this does.

Whilst the pyramid suggests some dominant components, the initial note is oranges and spices that are really well blended. As it dries down I get a hint of aquatic – this fragrance smells modern and light. Longevity appears pretty good and sillage is 'polite' and not intrusive. Strangely, I can't easily name another cologne that it reminds me of – that has to be a pretty good thing! I can see why Salvatore Ferragamo fragrances don't get the headlines that the industry giants do – their scents aren't as 'loud' and 'in your face' as the best sellers. If you like subtle and tasteful then this could be for you. The bottle is worth a mention for its distinctive irregular shape. It is a thing of beauty to hold in your hand.

It's a great fragrance, Fresh, Crisp and Clean. One of the best Salvatore Ferragamo men's perfumes. It opens up with like fresh citrusy , slightly spicy and floral notes in the background then dry down is green musky. It smells like the breeze of Amalfi Coast in the morning. This is suitable for the spring and summer. The art of bottle design is very wonderful. I really enjoy it and I like Subtil Pour Homme EDT for Men by Salvatore Ferragamo. Longevity is average. Thumbs Up. Rating : 8 / 10

Nice really light and refreshing it's a up close and personal scent I don't know how good the longevity is but I do know it smells great I smelled this at perfumania several times and I like it but I haven't bought it yet for some reason maybe cause it's so light it may fade away in a couple hours but overall its a nice summer scent my girl thinks it smells great 8 out of 10 that's just from the scent not performance

This was a recent blind buy for $25. Hmm, where to begin. I’m honestly pretty pleased, it’s soft and spicy. Good for day-to-day wear and I think it works year-round, just adjust your sprays. The only negative for me is that it’s not a projection monster, but you don’t want every fragrance to be “loud” and this fits the bill for when you just want to smell good and not overthink too much. 4/5 for me!

Smells good, but you can only really smell a mix of floral notes along with ginger. It only lasts one hour at most, and the smell completely disappears. I can only see this being sprayed for the summer in the day. I would not pay full price for this fragrance, find it for a discounted price and I can see this as a way to freshen up, but don't expect it to last long.

without its serious performance issues, subtil pour homme can be easily considered as one of the best summer scents. great mix of floral, spicies and acquatic notes, the fragrance shines during the summer. performance is really poor. so sad. grazie! my vote: 7 in one word: holidays

I own a bottle that I purchased in 2009; it's really a nice, citrusy, soft fragrance, but I stopped using it 2 years ago, as this is like a suit-and-tie juice (IMO), and I currently wear casual clothes to work. Anyway, I don't know, but I think this is not for me.

Fresh and clean with a really nice opening. Dry down is on the sour bitter musky side. Performance is really really bad. Use it out of the shower.

I love the "Marine" fragances, Subtil is not a scandalous aroma, instead is very light
