Vince Camuto Eterno

Blind Buy King Review #5: Eterno by Vince Cemuto reminds you of your celebrity crush on TV when she whips her hair and then stares into your soul. Pupils dilate, all systems locked. I will die for this. Eterno is a scent worth fighting for. Your very soul longs to feel the way this singular scent makes you feel. The fine leather wrapping. The perfectly weighted cap pops off the bottle. The beautiful atomiser pulls you into Narnia. Mr Tumnus, smoking a pipe with a necklace of mint leaves and bergamot slices adorning his neck, beckons you forth. You kneel, and he appoints you with your manhood. "You, child, I have chosen to captivate the lasses of thy world."I start to cry. Saffron and patchouli caress my soul. I open my eyes only to find out it is neither saffron nor patchouli, but the finest woman of a rich and diverse background, wrapping her arms around me, running her hands through my hair. "Your scent brought me hither", she whispers into my ear, her slight accent sending a tingle down the spine. I secretly shed a tear and thank God for His guidance in my blind buying. She compliments my sillage, telling me it's like no other man's. Perhaps I am in heaven already, I think to myself. I then open my eyes to realise I am in my college dorm room, shirt discarded, who knows when or how, sweating, muscles bulging. I take my bottle of LV Imagination and hurl it out the window, the piece of garbage that it is. A must for anybody looking to add some class to their collections. 9/10.

Fantastic fragrance that may disappoint some. My experience with Camuto Eterno (and Solare) prior to it is that you have to apply liberally. The usual routine of a few sprays results in VERY short life span on skin. But apply this liberally and you'll get very good performance. It has the interesting effect of seeming to disappear from your skin, but after a while the warm, sensual, and cozy character comes out. It just radiates a very pleasant smell. Some have compared it to Prada amber, and that is not a bad comparison, although one must clarify that it's the feel and vibe, not so much the smell. Again, that's only after you get to the dry down and it starts coming back to life. found it very affordable at Marshall's, so I'd say it's worth picking up. Very safe for work because it doesn't scream at you. Even if you spray a lot, by the time you get to work it will be down to the dry down. I sprayed on chest, both sides of neck, back of my neck and on my undershirt. 7 hours later I'm smelling it while I type away. So spray on and enjoy, you fragrance junky!

This is what Givenchy Play Sport should have been! This has the Play DNA - that same woody cedar/vetiver/citrus accord that is the backbone of both Play and Play Intense, but it is brightened up and smoothed out in a wonderful way. A very nice opening of freshly peeled mandarin oranges and a hint of mint, along with an already present (and everpresent) creamy/powdery fougere accord that lasts the life of the scent. The citrus fades to the background and that Play-esque woodiness comes to the fore, but what sets this apart from Play and Play Intense is the aforementioned sweet and creamy, somewhat (barely) powdery fougere accord which lasts the life of the fragrance. Imagine a mix between say Play and Penhaligon's Sartorial - Eterno is something like that. Longevity is good and projection is on the soft side of moderate, which is what you want for a frag like this as it's a great workhorse/daily frag. I've not been blown away by any of the other Camuto scents (Solare was nice, though) but this one is very very good.

Saffron BOMB! Sweet, smooth, creamy saffron with a woody finish. Very light and inoffensive, and yet strong enough to feel luxurious. Opulent. This is the perfect scent for days when your nose just needs a break from all the harsh notes you usually wear. While this is strong and long lasting enough that you will smell it all day, it's also light enough that you could get away with wearing it to an office that doesn't allow you to wear cologne. If you're looking for a quiet, formal, high quality, suit and tie or interview scent? This is it. This is BY FAR my favorite from the Vince Camuto line! It would easily make a great all-occasion signature scent for the man who likes to smell nice without being noticed for his scent, but instead, whose scent is remembered by those who engaged him in close conversation. Move over, Dolce & Gabbana The One - you've been replaced. :) I much prefer this over the more popular Prada Amber.

So I wore this fragrance to work today and got 4 really nice compliments.. one of my coworkers told me to write it down so she could get it for her fiance.. one lady said I smell like every man should.. So first off, the presentation of this fragrance is really nice.. a leather like material wraps the bottle and cap of this classy looking bottle.. looks good in my collection.. As TONY has said this is a saffron bomb!! but I also get a strong mint in the opening.. The saffron and bourbon pepper is a nice combo in the middle although the saffron takes over.. there is a woody essence to this fragrance but I see it more of a floral spicy not a woody spicy .. Very comparable to Prada pour homme Overall this is an excellent smelling fragrance.. maybe too mature for someone in high school/college.. but great for guys who are 30+.. All weather all occasion fragrance I’m glad I have this one in my collection:) 8.3/10
