Primal Code

I admit that this new batch is really similar to Armani's SWY. only difference is this has a stronger wet mint and cedar note. the sweetness in here is just right. this is not the primal code that I knew when it first came out. what I remember before this one it was like a fresh and sort of a little bit darker, deeper than Pure Instinct (first formulation). I recommend this for spring, fall and winter nights scent. any of the fragrance of this line is easy 8+ hours on my skin. 2-3 hours projection. this is amazing. high quality. I wish other youtubers should check this line from Swiss Arabian.

Such a simple and yet an amazing fragrace, I don't think iv'e got anything bad to say about this fragrace, sweet, sexy and the performance are outstanding, as someone with a "bad skin" this fragrance lasts 10 hours eazily, when I got a sample of it and tried it for the first time my nose became addicted to that scent and when i looked up the price tag I though it is too good to be true. Can't wait to rock this one next winter.

Atm to my memory this is my favourite clone in my collection out of those inspired by any SWY frag. That includes: Maison Alhambras Your Touch Amber Your Touch Santal Your Touch Oud Fragrance World Proud of you Absolute FW Proud of You Tobacco Riiffs Seasons Rise Rayhaan Corium Armaf Odyssey Homme White Swiss Arabian Primal Code

Better than original SWY, not even considering the price difference, just smells better. It is a clone with some tuning being made, which even improved upon original DNA. Amazing opening, performance is absolutely stunning Beast mode.9.5/10

This is completely Nuclear! I love it, but to finally get it off of me I used dawn dish soap and could still smell it. Good Stuff!

This is a gorgeous fragrance! Well done Swiss Arabian!

This smells so good. Nice for fall and winter!

SWY but longer lasting.... by miles.

This is NOT exactly a carbon copy of UltraMale by JPG but the dry down on my skin is quite similar to that! In the opening however, I thought it was similar to “Le Male Terrible” by JPG because of the very effervescent vibe with sweet notes in the background then it landed to the UltraMale territory. I think a lot of guys who like UltraMale will also like this one as well but again, it is NOT exactly the same but still close enough. Nonetheless this is a good fragrance for those with sweet tooth. On the side note, I paid CAD$58 on FragranceBuy.ca 😋🍈🍍🍊🍨🍦🪵🍃

I don’t see the Bleu Chanel resemblance, but then again, I haven’t tried Bleu in a while. This does have a designer feel to it, but not quite like any other designer fragrance I have come across. It is mass pleasing for sure, has a ‘blue’ opening on an addictive gourmand base of sweet vanilla. Excellent longevity even lasting for days on clothes. A close relative is ‘pure instinct’ from the same house. A well done and enjoyable fragrance.

I get the comparisons to SWY EDT but this fragrance does its own thing. More fruity and aromatic, with the vanilla showing up in the scent profile much later as the scent progresses than in the original SWY. Very similar scents though, both in quality and profile.

It is a very good daily signature scent, great performance for the price.

Opening: Melon, mint and cedar. Quite potent opening though the overall composition is not to my preferences 5/10 Later: Throughout the projection duration it's quite similar - with strong melon and cedar 5/10 Projection and sillage: Remarkable projection and sillage, it's going to last 4-5 hours strongly, then still be able to smell closer to the body. As a skin smell you can smell for at least a day. 8/10 Overall: It does remind me Aqua di Gio and Invictus and does quite well in this aspect. I got a decant out of curiosity but it's not my type of perfume. Nevertheless, if you like the above-mentioned perfumes I believe Primal Code is going to get you remarkably similar smell for so much less money. 6/10

Whereas Pure Instinct is more in that standard blue area of fragrances with its grapefruit and rosemary, this sibling goes the softer route with canteloupe, cinnamon, and lavender. It's got its good sides but much like the actual canteloupe fruit, the scent is mild and has medium appeal compared to watermelon that goes all-out with the flavor

The opening is a spot-on impression of Stronger With You with the sweet vanilla cardamom. It transitions to the resinous amber and guaiac wood in the dry-down. The opening is quite strong, so go light on the sprays. Overall, a great price and value and blind buy-worthy if you like these scent profiles.

Decent aromatic-woody-sweet fragrance that's pretty good for the price. I've not had the chance to the original SWY so cannot comment on the comparison between the two. However, I've tried other flankers like SWY Intensely and Absolutely and can tell you that this is no way compares to either of them. They are completely different scents. However, to my nose atleast, this smells like a slightly more refined Jaqueous Bogart Silver Scent Midnight. And the note pyramid seems to agree with my assessment too. But I don't understand how so many people claim this is "beast mode" or "nuclear" because my experience wasn't nearly the name. To me, the projection is on the lower side and the sillage/performance is moderate at best. It's definitely a great, non offensive, masculine office scent and can also be used as a dumb reach scent because of it's inexpensive price tag. But don't expect the level of quality you get in high end designers and this is by no means a "beast mode" scent.

A sweet, fruity, vanillic crowd pleaser. They really nailed the designer-esque quality with this one, especially with how they executed the vanilla. It's way better composed than something like '9 PM' or 'Ramz Silver' that are screechingly sweet and carry that cheap scented candle-type tonka bean or vanilla. This is still a sweet scent, don't get me wrong -- it's just not diabetes inducing sweet. Although 'Primal Code' is not all that similar smell wise to 'Ultra Male' or 'SWY', it's very close in quality because of the scent profile. 'Primal Code' also performs very well and leaves a nice scent trail. I'll be buying backup bottles of this.

Honestly, after wearing this a few times in the springtime and summertime -- I like it even more than in my initial review. I'm also doubling down on the designeresque quality of it; the blend of the base of cinnamon-vanilla and the myriad of fruity notes is so damn smooth and smells like something you'd find in a new YSL or Armani release. I like it infinitely more than the Ultra Male clones and prefer it over Ultra Male. This comes across equal in quality to the JPG, but has the cantaloupe-style melon as the prominent fruity note instead of pear, making it feel more unique.

Had a whiff of the fragrance at the SA kiosk and sampled it on skin and paper. Aromatic fougere of sorts, with commendable performance. However the drydown was very similar to another SA staple Pure Instinct, one of my favs. This i reckon, is probably due to the similar vanilla, cedarwood and amber notes in both fragrances. Since the drydown lasts for the majority of the duration of a fragrance, i did not see any need to spend on this.

Yup !! Bleu de Chanel Parfum clone. IMO....this is a tad better....just sayin..... Good stuff !!!

Nothing like a Bleu de Chanel! This is a good clone of Armani Stronger With You
