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

★★★★ (4 / 5 stars) Sleeper hit of 2016. TonyClean is spot on. Not many men's fragrances do saffron, and fewer still blend it as masterfully as this Vince Camuto release. I was skeptical before testing it. Very skeptical. All the previous Vince Camuto releases were fine - 6 out of 10 nothing mind blowing releases. They all hit the bargain bins pretty quickly. Each and every one of them smelling nearly identical to a hundred other men's fragrances. Eterno is special. The overwhelming positive reviews below are my feelings as well. It blends elements of fresh, creamy, ozonic, feminine and masculine so well. It's that dance of notes that shows care was put into its construction. When sampling it, pay close attention to the distinct notes. There is a lot going on. 7 hours on skin with the frst 3 projecting. Not beast mode but acceptable. Feels luxurious. Expensive. Highly recommended.

This review will be almost identical to mine for Eau Sauvage - an exceptional summer scent that I can't resist using despite it's lack of powerhouse performance. Like many light, warm-weather scents it suffers this sad fate, but I still find it irresistible - so much so that I paid full price for it rather than play the waiting game. Do you have to apply it heavily to get any projection? Yes. Does said projection rely on a helping hand from your own body heat. Yes. Despite all this, I can't stay away from it. This and Eau Sauvage are my favorite two warm-weather scents. Does anyone else smell an unmistakable honey note on the drydown? I can only imagine that this is in fact the saffron, but I don't ever smell it until the drydown so I kind of doubt it - perhaps it's the saffron-cedar accord, with the woody notes muted by the citrus through the opening?

OK, I have only had this on for about 6 hours, but I am really impressed with it for a designer fragrance! The opening for some reason reminds me of something from Le Labo. It drys down to something very pleasant and safe, but is missing the horrid cheap notes that I find present in so many designer frags of late (Sauvage, BdC, etc.). It's a bit like taking the best parts of Mont Blanc Legend and Eros, adding some class and blending everything very nicely. I think I like it better than the original Vince Camuto as it has more character. Like I said this is just my first wearing, but out of the 4 new frags I tried today this one impressed me the most.

After wearing my sample of this some more I made another realization that should have been obvious - it definitely shares some similarities with Prada Amber Pour Homme. It has that same sweetness that is somewhere between milky and powdery. I believe it is Nirvanolide musk. Where it differs from Prada Amber is that the base of this goes more into a mineral/cedar/patchouli direction instead of the vetiver/myrrh/suede of Prada Amber. This is also a bit more casual than Prada Amber PH. It's like a cross of Givenchy Play and Prada Amber with regards to overall smell and degree of casualness/formality. A stellar work scent that can be dressed up or down.

This smells alot like Chanel Allure Extreme up front with a good dose of herbal green leaf in the background. The creamy lemon smell is about 30% less obvious than in Chanel, but the resulting smell is so very similar up top. However, this juice cost about $25-30 dollars. Its way better than Chanel for cost. I will use this for quick gym excursions over Chanel for cost. ** I sprayed some on a test strip and let it dry down and it has a much more prominent sage/herb smell in the background that my skin does not illicit at all. Very interesting. Very nice smell....

For some reason, when I first tested this on my skin at the shops, it projected for about 30 min, & after 2 hours it was gone.. But it smelt so good, I still went back and bought it.. After bringing it home & storing it in my wine cooler for 24 hours ( where I store all my colognes ) I gave it a full test today, I now get 2 hours projection & after that it settled, & lasted another 6 hours on my skin ( the last 2-3 hours being a skin scent ) So for me on my skin, a total of 8 hours + a great smell Happy days..

Haven't touched or sprayed this in maybe 3 years because i thought it was basic and boring...boy was I wrong. Like some reviews here, I really thought this was boring and not worth wearing. I picked it up this morning and sprayed it on the top of my hand was wow'd by how underrated this is. It's simple, powdery soft, relaxing, and musky. This is what bedtime relaxation smells like; this is what a chill Sunday afternoon smells like. Don't sleep on this one.

This is a terrific offering from Camuto. I've tried almost all from this line but this is by far the most unique. The main note combo of Saffron and Mint is something different that you don't find too often in fragrances. It comes across fresh but has depth bc of the Cedar and Pepper. I like to wear this when I don't feeling spending too much time perusing my large collection. If looking for a safe bet from VC go this route.

The image that comes to my mind is the lobby of a hotel casino on the Strip. I live in Las Vegas... that being said I don't mean it in a bad way. I get tobacco and leather with a subtle sweetness, I love it when my husband wears this.

Fresh and clean! Straight out of the shower this scent can open up a young mans life. While not the fragrance I SWEAR by, vince camuto eterno has a grip on me that other scents don't. Very pleasant all around.

One of my favorite cheapies. I love it. 9/10 scent performance is good enough for me.

Vince Camuto Eterno opens with invigorating top notes of fresh mint and lively citrus, transitioning into a heart of bourbon pepper and elegant lavender. This combination of scents with Sicilian notes gives it a classic yet lively smell. Resting, it establishes the base with deep Atlas cedar notes, which provides it with earthiness, and a scent profile that is both classical and modern masculine fashion. Best suited for spring and summer due to its fresh and lively citrus top notes and crisp, clean character. However, its versatile aroma also makes it a great choice for mild autumn weather. A versatile fragrance that is suitable for both daily wear and formal occasions. In its skillfully balanced notes, the perfume can be worn in the office as well as at evening social events, thus leaving the person with a sophisticated aura all day and all night. The fragrance bottle is an elegant design that is in line with the luxury and refined aesthetics of the Vince Camuto brand. The longevity is approximately 3 to 4 hours. Fragrance Family: Woody Aromatic Scent Type: Fresh, Spicy, Woody, Creamy, and Powdery. Price: $84 for 100ml from the company's website.

BRIGHT FRESH CLEAN AIRY MUSKY WOODY CREAMY starts off alcohol blast needs minute or two to settle, opens really clean like fresh laundered whites similar to Karen Low Blanc(white); as it dries slight mint, citrus & peppery-wood(cedar) comes in playing a supporting role resembling TdH Eau Tres Fraiche (just not as citric), when it fully dries you also get some slight patchouli along with cedar (adding some masculinity); very light notes except for the saffron (resembles clean white musk) and woods which are the main players, has a mild creaminess to it. Also similar to BR Linen Vetiver (but not as loud as Linen Vetiver) i see why it averages a 4/5 rating, very pleasant clean scent hard to dislike, smells expensive (at least in the air), unisex (not overly floral but women can definitely pull Eterno off due to the creamy light sweetness added); versatile, great for office/formal setting and/or gym; Projection/Sillage': MILD, not loud at all, decent arms length scent bubble for the 1st hour then remains an in-close scent. Performance/Longevity: GOOD, about 10+ hours (on fabric)

I neglected writing this review because this fragrance came off as something so specific that I couldn't put my finger on it until just recently...ready? A creamy, saffron-infused Chai Tea Latte. That is what this smells like to me, or at least the closest thing I can think to describe it as. I am not sure how one would wear this during the day in the summer, at least in Florida where I live. The scent feels heavy, if that makes sense. I did wear this out one night in July to run and get food, while the temps were still above 80 and the humidity was oppressive as well. The cashier behind the counter said I smelled good, so I suppose it could work then, and during the day if you don't live in a swamp like I do. I don't wear this a lot, but when I do, I like to savor it. It's definitely one of the more unique designer offerings I have and pales in comparison to the linear notes of Vince Camuto Homme, which almost bores me as much as Original Penguin Original Blend did. Give this one a chance. Given the right atmosphere, it can work wonders. 7/10

I only use this when I am layering it with other fragrances. Used to layer, in moderation, and in combination with the right other fragrance(s), it can bring another dimension and add a fresh/clean note. Here's the main thing I do with it that has solicited a number of compliments: First layer, a solid layer of Spirit for Men by Antonio Banderas. (I say "solid" because this stuff is weak in projection and in longevity.) Second layer, a dusting of Eterno by Vince Camuto. Third layer, a dusting of Animale for Men by Animale, along with a very light extra bit of Animale on the pulse points. I don't know why this works, but it does. It's a warm base of spicy oriental (Spirit), cooled off, cleaned up, and freshened up with that contrasting dusting of icy clean (Eterno), with an accent of green (Animale). (Hence, I call it "Eternal Spirit Animal.") All of these are very affordable colognes but their rightly layered combination makes for something special. The result is something familiarly masculine, yet unique.
