Bois de Vincennes

Great scent. Has some Fahrenheit - CH men vibe going on. Great for fall and winter. Its also safe for office. It would not offend anybody. Blind buy recommended. No notes to dislike here. Update: This was one of my most worn fragrances last winter. I really love the combination of soft kind of leather with violet. This is not really a fragrance for really young kids. Maybe it's underrated because of that.

Mandarine orange/tangerine and violet leaf freshness with powdery (musk and iris) backbone with a very prominent leather note. Great quality for the price.

Zara fragrances have about 5% treasure/garbage ratio. Which means that with unrelentless pace of new releases, you can get your hands on marvel or two quite often. For that reason I like to stroll Zara stores and test their new frags. This one is the best of their new Parisian line. It surprises me how much people downvote the obvious resemblance to Fahrenheit. The leather note strikes from the start and is very prominent. Sillage and longevity are above average which means a lot in Zara standards. I find it a bit redundant and unoriginal, but can see how it can be successful. As far as I'm concerned, I will stick to Dior.

Thanks to the fat leather note upfront, this is an undeniably sweeter, artisanal take on Fahrenheit, although I doubt that was the intent. There are other notes involved that make this very interesting, notable a slightly sweet, watery note. Otherwise, if you have smelled Fahrenheit then you ae 90% there. The gasoline note Fahrenheit is famous for is here, albeit accompanied by a WD40-like metallic vibe.

The original notes are : mandarin, orris, jasmine, musk, cedarwood and amber. This one is orris based fragrance, on my skin I get the orris and mandarin then it is all about orris, cedarwood and amber. It is very nice fragrance for the price specially if you are into iris (orris).
