The better version of Zara's Vibrant Leather Cologne/Summer. Probably the best alternative to DHC 2013 for cheap next to Benz Cologne if you can find it. The citruses in both done very well. Tip for the summer with citrus freshies - spray the back of your caps if you wear them. I've gotten noticed on more than one occasion that way. Chrome Sport too - the grassy alternative.

Loving the shirt! I feel about the same with this scent. Its okay, but there are some others in the same vein and price point that I prefer like Eau de Rochas, Robert Talbott, John Varvatos Artisan Pure to name a few. Will probably use up my bottle of the Choo Man Ice but don't think I'll buy it again. Pretty surprised to see this one pop up on your channel tho! Make sense it was a viewer's choice. Much love and so great to have you back

Thank you so much for sharing all those different choices for others that may be looking for something else around this realm. I would agree with you, this didn't wow me at the point of unboxing so I don't think I'll ever buy it again if I ever drain this bottle. I do review everything so don't be surprised, you'll see lots of different scents on this channel.

did they changed the formular???? i tried it a year ago and it was a lil bit ctirc and fresh and creamy, i bought it this year and its a total citrus bomb its fresh but im totally missing the creamy part? i still like it, its great for putting in a atomizer for work..
@robes085 ай бұрын
well teabag I'm not sure if they changed much. Honestly Jimmy Choo isn't using too many high end ingredients so I'm assuming a cheapie like this would never be reformulated as it would cost them money to do so, usually cheap scents like this get discontinued if a recipe change is needed.
@teabagNBG5 ай бұрын
@@robes08 @robes08 reformulation has nothing to do with the price or how good it sells... fragrance is a cosmetic product, the producer have to follow irfa regulations and standards... irfa just have to say this or that ingredient is not safe and the companys have to change it... thats why most stuff gets reformulated in the first place... it happens alot... specially with cheap chemical synthetic ingredients
@robes085 ай бұрын
@teabagNBG well teabag sorry to disappoint you but designer brands do look at sales and cost once reformulation is required by ifra or that let's say givaudan or iff discontinues or changes a compound. So yes if the product does not sell they rather discontinue the scent. If the new recipe costs more, indeed they will discontinue. Not sure why you think im wrong but it's absolutely correct. Yes IFRA does throw it's standards out but after that the company needs to make a judgment call.

I use this as a room freshener in the high heat because it doesn't overpower the room or choke me out, nice mandarin indeed and super crisp. Dior Homme Cologne is on another level or two though, people comparing it need to spend more time with the scent.

I agree the Dior is 3 steps ahead of this one from my experience at the moment. I did want to give this one the benefit of doubt as I just unboxed it.

Hey robes can you recommend a good scent for a male student? Something thats masculine, subtle, and people don’t readily associate with cologne? Something like santal 33 but manly
@CinHotlanta2 жыл бұрын
Try Moncler pour Homme which just came out recently - it's like Santal 33 but with an added pine note that makes it more masculine and it's priced in line with designers so much more affordable even at full retail.
