“I love this fragrance and I wear it every day and I get about 6hrs of longevity. I live in GA so if our heat does not affect it no where else should. I get tons of compliments too, but there is just one problem......the wife hates it. So I only get to wear it to work. My sister-in-law is on the snooty side and it even fooled her into believing it was Aventus. And trust me if anyone knows she does. So I will be purchasing it again, but only to wear out in public.”
“I have bought this two times, the first one one year ago, and the second one like a month ago because I just happen to love the first one which lasted almost all day in my skin. The new one is a production date from 2016 and it performs like they forgot to put all the bottom ingredients of the perfume pyramid: the opening and mids smell exactly the same as the old one, but then it fades away at the third hour like if the drydown is missing completely.Funny thing is that it was precicely because of the drydown that this was a better choice than Aventus, now its not even worth the 20 dollars.What is missing according to my nose? A lot of smokiness, a lot of saltyness (ambergris) and a lot of muskyness, just gone, not there anymore. Now it really smells like a cheap cheap colone that tries to be like aventus.I do think its a reformulation, but if some one has a different experience with newer produced bottles, please share.”
