Love love love this. I ordered a sample as no matter how weird and wonderful I like my perfumes and colognes, my go-to is fresh and clean.
I bought this during the 2018 World Cup, and wore it during the England matches. As soon as I smell it now it already reminds me of the excitement, bright green football fields, sport, adrenaline, white clean football shirts, and right outside my lounge window is my green pepper plant which is very apt looking at the notes listed!
The next time I wore it was at my gymnastics class and I could smell it wafting round me during the class, it’s very energising and I’ve never smelled anything like it.
I can’t really break down the notes but I like to imagine it’s the blast of gunpowder giving it that edge.
I’ve ordered a full bottle, can’t wait to wear it.
Even the sample was long lasting with good silage.
Literally green in a bottle. Smells of sport.
aleksei82 – :
I love this scent. Green but different. Not odd just not your typical flowery green. I know it’s the gunpowder scent that takes this to a different level. It’s not something that’s harsh or like WHOA! Gunpowder! More of a leafy green with a little more. Very nice. It’s a love from me.
neo_XP – :
Comme des Garçons sometimes make impressive olfactory recreations that impress but aren’t necessarily something you’d want to wear….
Amazing Green really smells of airy notes of flint and what to me smells of potted ferns – which I guess is the mix of green pepper and green leafy notes – but it’s the flint that keeps this greenery on the masculine side.
Nice… very interesting but not an easy fragrance to wear for all occasions.

LUSH BLIND FIND!
I don’t get the negative reviews here – I get CDG’s ethos – this is classic CDG – slightly quirky and brilliantly done with typical quality – if I guess you are open minded and looking for an entertaining change. As such I own many CDG.
I just posted a review of Histoire De Parfum 1828 – I think this will explain it for you:
1828 is an Amazing green smell almost like no other!
Or so I thought then I realised its remarkably like one of my faves AMaZINGREEN from Comme Des Garcons. I had do a comparison. I would explain how it smells rather than by the pyramid notes as
1828 – Opening is am in your face Vetiver (eucalyptus/pine), Incense, Cactus, Fern, Green Bell Pepper/Capsicum and spices. The dry down reveals Nutmeg, Cedar, Wood and pungent Green Bell Pepper. Amazing projection and silage – very natural and pretty damn unique – maybe slightly challenging but if you like green it’ll pass for formal or casual use.
Beautiful and natural.
AMAZINGREEN is weirdly enough a synthetic (in a typical good CDG appeal) version, simplified! It starts with a much sweeter floral open and in the dry down turns to simple sweet sugary pungent green bell pepper/capsicum with gun powder hanging just over the top that as it drys down turn to a bit of a kick. Its that simple!
Its like 1828 is a seasoned version of Amazingreen.
AMAZINGREEN for men/women 1828 for Men.
Both awesome both newbies into my top 20 and smelling them both on my arm I would not do with out both.
Happy Smelling!

CDG does Basic Becky Sport.
Not interesting, not into it.
Prophion – :
Too green and aquatic for me. It lasted for quite awhile, probably because I didn’t actually like it on me. It is too masculine, I woke up still smelling it from the previous day and I was thinking “is there a man around?” (and it wasn’t).
I think I would actually like it on a man, it is nice, but maybe too simple.
Сон – :
One CdG for the masses that i’m afraid the masses won’t approve.
The notes’ pyramid is far more interesting than the actual scent, which is quite familiar and simple (though it’s probably perplexed CDG style)
Amazingreen reminds me of a fragrance i used to have – Lanvin’s Oxygene – for its clean and green airy feel; and Smalto’s Fullchoke in its use of pepper and gun-powder.
Amazingreen is not amazing, but could be green as long as scent colors go.
Nothing remarkable, just a nice scent from a house that generally seems uncomfortable with just nice.

natasha778 – :
I just love this. There’s nothing I’ve smelled in my life that made me crazy about it. This is the only smell that I’m in love with. My signature/ Go To smell. I just wish it had better performance so that others would appreciate this amazing scent. Too good to be real. If anyone knows any similar fragrances, I mean really similar, then please mention it down ! I’d be very very thankful.
kosha_90 – :
At first sniff, I loved this – I got aquatic right off the bat. The longevity however is pretty minimal. I’m 4 hours in and can barely smell it. What I am getting now, though, is very reminiscent of Chanel No. 19!!
Peessyoccably – :
یک عطر خیلی بی آزار
عطری است که تم کلی آن رو نتهای سبز تشکیل میدهد. شروع عطر با نت سبز همراه با فلفل سبز هست. در صورت دم عمیق و تمرکز میتونید اون خیسی رو که فلفل سبز داره رو حس کنید. در قسمت نتهای میانی همون رایحه قبلی حفظ میشه و رایحه ی گشنیز (تخم گشنیز بیشتر هست) به رایحه افزوده میشه. سرانجام به نت پایانی میرسیم. در اینجا هم باز تم کلی عطر تغییری نمیکنه و کمی حس بخوری اضافه میشه
در مجموع عطر امیزینگ گرین؛ عطری است بهاره که حسی سبز رو از ابتدا تا انتها القا میکنه. ساختار عطر به صورتی هست که رایحه ای تقریبا خطی داره. این عطر رو تمام افراد جامعه که این تم بویایی رو دوست داشته باشند میتونند بپوشند. منظورم اینه که این عطر با هیچ کسی دشمنی نداره و با سردرد اصلا میونه ای نداره
Volandret – :
My favorite green fragrance to date, but I wish the performance wasn’t so horrible. I love the fragrance itself to death, but I could literally bathe myself in this and it would still probably die down into a skin scent in just a few hours. Does decent in the heat, and I’m sure any amount of coolness would kill it entirely.
I’m quickly learning that this is more of a “me time” scent, because I’ll be the only one smelling it throughout my day. I’ll be reaching for this when I don’t want to project loudly or make any kind of statements with my smell.
droganov64 – :
Amazingreen is a very casual fragrance. Grassy, earthy, watery and sharp. Perfect to wear during hot summer days AND nights. I am taking it on my cruise this year. It’s not an amazing fragrance BUT it’s not terrible either.
IssuemeRero – :
As we happily stroll into the fresh, reinvigorating new beginning of spring 2017, Amazingreen goes straight back into my scent rotation. If you are after a freshie with an added contrast of masculine aggression and fire, then you’re sure to get kick out of this one.
Picture the scene. It is the beginning of spring, and the world is once again going through the wonderful process of renewal, and to celebrate the season of rebirth you decide to take a relaxing walk through your local forested area. Shortly into your walk you come across a body of water, and stop to take in the beautiful fragrances of green peppery vegetation, and the calming fresh aspect of the water. Everything is so fresh, so invigoratingly youthful, and you feel wonderfully alive, but as you take in the aroma of freshness, an immediate hint of smoky danger assaults your nostrils. Is there a fire in the distance? Is that gunpowder? You do not know, but you know one thing for sure. Your calming walk through the forest is about to get very interesting indeed.
Amazingreen is a freshie with edge. Projection is minimal and longevity is average. You wear the scent for your own pleasure. I adore its contrasts, the freshness, the green notes, the aquatic note, and the gunfire accord that makes it all so different, dangerous, unique and exciting.
As a masculine spring scent it’s one of the very best in my collection, and I’m as happy as a lamb that once again the world has turned, and it’s back again in my scent rotation.
SASHULY – :
One of 3 x 9ml miniature bottles I bought recently (the others are Wonderwood and CdG2) and sorry!, but this is my least favourite among these three.
Freshly cut green pepper with some floral scent is fine for summer, but unfortunately it doesn’t last long at all…..
sergeymaster – :
This makes me gag like all the other generic blue-sport-fresh- whatevers it resembles. Once I had a particularly bad sunburn on my backside and so I bought a menthol-containing aftershave splash to soothe it. Amazingreen smells like my sheets after I washed and dried them but the aftershave smell didn’t completely wash out. Then the dry-down is like sour apple mad dog 20/20 mixed with “sea spray” candle. Ouch. I got absolutely no gunpowder, smoke or bitter pepper much to my disappointment. I guess the “green” fragrances I gravitate toward are the dirty bitter slap-happy ones or are the Woody-dry-dirty ones and that’s what I was expecting with the gunpowder and pepper business – must’ve overlooked the aquatic notes when I read the reviews!
kimjgcqiwzs – :
Wow! This is just green and sickly sweet. Later on becomes slightly bitter maybe because of the gunpowder/flint and the green pepper notes. Made me nauseous.
As an EDP, longevity is bad.
Thankfully it was just given to me. I would’t spend 80 euros(back then) for this.
marsik5 – :
you can call this fragrance everything you want but amazing… we must admit though it has a very intelligent a catchy name but it does not live up to the expectations it generates….It is a kind of green musky fragrance…something that may appeal to the masses that prefer to buy mainstream and generic stuff…not a great one for me, at maximum just average
overall score: 5 or 6 out of 10
orakul – :
Some fresh green, mixed with Bulgari Aqua style aquatic. Poor sillage and mediocre longevity. There is nothing amazing here.
malia – :
I just bought it – it’s one that I always think “I’ll try that on again” and always quite like it, so today I pulled the trigger and got 100ml. It’s not super expensive so why not.
I think the perfect place to wear this would be to a poolside on a very hot day somewhere nice! Don’t jump in the pool yet, just relax onto a deck chair, lie back with a drink and put your sunglasses on and enjoy the moment, the amazingreen drifting on the air…
After an hour, jump in the pool for a swim and there you go… a lovely way to spend the day.
val52013048 – :
This is in the top 3 worst fragrances I have ever smelled. Smells like mixed green vegetables, salad oil and green peppers mashed up in a bowl full of gunpowder and flint. I had to scrub it off quickly.
FEDYA 93 – :
I’m not as good as others at discerning different notes, but something in Amazingreen is definitely vegetal. I guess it’s the green pepper? I find this vegetal smell fascinating. But the overall scent seems too much like shower soap, or shampoo or something. Nice, but certainly not full bottle worthy.
Dulia – :
Great casual and outdoor scent. Very juicy green, like smashed plants. Non disturbing sillage – stays close to skin, what’s a good thing for this type of smell. Decent longevity. I like it very much.
OLEG.BIATLON – :
Opens with a blast of lime, even though its not in the list of notes. Quickly turns to green leaves with a touch of coriander in the background. This list of notes that this one contains are rather unconventional, and I’m not able to distinguish ‘jungle leaves’ from ‘ivy leaves’, or ‘palm tree leaves’, and dew mist? Hmm. Although the scent is very green and there is a freshness reminiscent of ozone. Maybe that is what they call ‘dew mist’. There is a very nice vetiver inside, as well as a crispy snappy fresh green pepper. The smoke shows up later, offering a little depth to the light refreshing greenness, but on my skin the smoke is always very subtle. Feels cool on the skin, and doesn’t really project at all. While wearing it, it sometimes disappears, only to come back later when it feels like it. After 4 hours, it is entirely absent on my skin. I find myself frequently wishing for more longevity and projection from the awesome scents CDG has to offer.
d.toljatti – :
Glitterlust’s description is spot on. I think if this was released by another house beside CdG, people would like it more. It is a very wearable and pleasing fragrance, the sort of scent most CdG buyers are not looking for.
yubard – :
Smells like someone trying to burn green leaves. Chlorophyll meets smoke and vetiver.
sypuk2000 – :
Generic, fresh, clean cut, after shower splash. No depth, that’s what you shouldn’t expect but that’s the beauty of Amazingreen- the singularity. For all them young lads out there that are poisoning themselves with sweet junk, please, try this out and enjoy your youth.
mamattillaped – :
Oh, how good this is! I came to it for the name and the colour of the bottle and I definitely have a reason to stay. It’s totally green and refreshing. I would wear this gladly; it’s an edgy and unusual smell – for a woman at least. Especially combined with business attire it would add just the right amount of weirdness.
I like it a lot and consider getting a bottle.
Edit: After having worn it for a whole day at work it’s safe to say that I’m over it. Not that I don’t like it anymore; I do a lot but I just got enough of it. It’s also not very long lasting on me; it disappeared pretty quickly.
If I ever happen to share a home with a male creature, I would buy a bottle for him – I won’t feel guilty for splurging on something I don’t wear often and I will still have it around to enjoy it every now and then.
bohodir – :
Smells good , but you need to put the bottle in your pocket .. it doesn’t stick for long ! which is disappointing considering the high price :S
StrelokRUS – :
Amazingreen opens with a fairly vague greenness, slightly resembling the gentle bite of green bell pepper. At the first, there’s an aquatic edge. It then becomes drier, sweeter, and takes on a powdery texture, all remaining very abstract.
The sillage is soft, the longevity is around 8 hours. I was drawn to Amazingreen expecting an interesting combination of green pepper, gunpowder and vetiver, while neither of them manifests itself clearly on my skin. As a green, aquatic fragrance, it’s pleasant and safe, but I don’t think I’d particularly recommend it, as there’re other more interesting choices among green fragrances.
kp0k – :
A somehow misleading name – Green? I’d rather think blue.. Amazing ? well… Very “aquatic” and slightly sweet, mostly due to calone (is that what is called water accords in the notes pyramid?), but really gives off a happy or “Life is good” vibe, summery and could remind me of a CK summer flanker.
Imagine morning dew on a strawberry plant or the scent of ivy perhaps ? Woody and slightly musky with some vetiver lurking in the background.
If this was launched by Kenzo, I wouldn’t be surprised, but CdG ? Didn’t see that coming. Like gypsy mentions below, it could also be from the Hermes Jardin series.
Unisex and hard to dislike, but not really that exciting. I mean, I like it but amazing? Naah….
Schultz888 – :
Wearing this again today, from my partners bottle, I’m wondering why I ever gave it away…
I’m amazed no one has noticed the distinct similarities, in aura and aroma, to the Jardin series done by JC Ellena for Hérmes. Not carbon copy, per se, but the same ambience and light lingering vegetal feeling to it.
I will amend my review upon reaching the dry down and report back. Suffice it to say if you own even one Jardin, and monetary issues are a consideration, sniff this and wear it fully before deciding. If you aren’t fettered by financial constraints (or a rabid decant collector like myself) its worth having if plush green ephemeral scents ring your bell…
If you’re looking for a well made still affordable niche fragrance this will do just fine. Better than most designer masstiege releases yet not quite as compelling as other more complex or costly luxe and indie perfumes. Sillage is soft to moderate and longevity is moderate to good, so great casual scent but still has some depth and style to it.
It’s no 8:88 silver words or wonderwood but its no slouch either. Smell swell & be well…
rot625Bessinepome – :
Menthol + Triplal + cis3 hexenol (and a woody base) Wow, not so complicated 😉
flycity333 – :
Amazingreen is an explosion of green and aromatic notes. I It opens quite sharp and cologne’ish. I only sprayed once on the inside of my arm to test and felt a bit lucky to be wearing a coat to cover the arm up as I was walking around the store.
It is unpleasant in a way I cannot explain. Makes me think of one of those tree-cards that serve as car fresheners or one of the Yankee Candle concoctions that was supposed to smell like palm leaves. I do not get a feeling this is fresh; on me, this is generic green and very harsh.
The drydown is a bit nicer, as the scent fades it becomes more wearable, but it’s not something I would like anyone in my surroundings to wear.
kyrte – :
With all the mixed and not so good reviews, I wasn’t expecting much from AmazinGreen. But… no disaster here. For me it is a big yes!.
I get the green pepper but mostly it is a homogenous blend. More of a thick, round blend that gently goes from green to a light musky green. It is definitely green. I don’t get any unpleasant synthetic vibe (some big houses would qualify more than this one in the synthetic/generic categories).
It is not a revolutionary juice, but one fine mix that is gorgeous to wear. Some say inoffensive scent. To me, a fragrance doesn’t have to catapult essences to be memorable. Sometimes a nice enjoyable blend will make my day, even if it’s from CDG. Like music, sometimes I want boldness, daring and sometimes something just to go with the flow of a transparent day.
Generic? Hmmm. I would say it is more common but it does have a character and a little sweetness of it’s own!
Sillage is moderate and longevity is very good on me. Not loud, but had it for 8 hours and it’s still there.
My friend is a botanist and AmazinGreen reminds me of this hiking we did at a mountain after an autumn rain shower and found this gigantic rock covered with bryophyte. The smell of cold, humid extra-green nature. Add a little sweetness and to me it best describe AmazinGreen.
Like a good movie that won’t get any Oscars, but still a good movie!
aleksei1003 – :
It opens with a fresh, sweet watery spritz. When drying I catch hints of slightly bitter green pepper and sharp vetiver. I am surprisingly (going against all the other reviews it seems) getting a sulphurous hint. Not explosive, but like a wrong note in a tune. A foul note in a brew. This is not pervasive enough to make it awful, but yes, the gunpowder (or stinkbomb smell) note is there.
My brother used to make gunpowder in the kitchen at home (supervised by my father who gave him the recipe and the ingredients) and his stinkbomb creations with this powder were not as funny as he thought!
This is different, definitely a warm to hot weather scent because of the green-ness and lightness. When completely dry I get an earthy note. I like this one, it is savoury and reminds me of a salad (hint of celery?).
xaker2961 – :
Not a bad scent. Aquatic for sure. Smells generic. Forgettable. Not worthy of CdG
the_unforgiven – :
A blind buy and my first (and probably last) CDG perfume. This, on me, smells far too masculine. It’s more aftershave than unisex. I love masculine notes in fragrance but this is not great on my skin. I love green perfumes and had high hopes given the great reviews and the listed notes I thought it would be an absolute winner. Instead it has been consigned to my drawer of “perfumes that are not my friend”.
I just checked the notes again and I think the note that jars with me is the aqua note. I particularly dislike the ozone/aqua accord so this purchase is my error – it will teach me to take more note of the notes! Shame.
tadesski – :
Fresh and pleasant notes, disturbed by a strange, heavy, industrial note; which makes it a little weird, and gives it that typical CdG-edge. I quite like it.
The name is probably a bit misleading, though. This is more a slightly off-kilter take on aquatics like cK One or Acqua Di Gio. There are other fragrances in the CdG line more deserving of the name “Amazingreen”, such as the minty-fresh “Play: Green”.
Great bottle, as always with Comme.
Egor_74 – :
I think peoples’ opinions about this frag are skewed by their perception that it should smell “green”.
On my (greasy, olive!) skin, the basenotes emerge really quickly and I get a powerful, almost creamy musk, coriander and incense experience with incredible sillage and longevity. On me this almost smells like an oriental, albeit tempered slightly by the leaves in this.
I absolutely love this fragrance, but wonder if it’s most suited to guys with skin like mine.
MrSmith – :
a bit artificial first, but i love it. there is a organic chewing gum called ‘miradent xylitol: green tea’ that tastes exactly the same as cdg amazingreen after 1 hour smells on my skin, awesome!
max-navi – :
The problem with Amazingreen is that it was launched by Comme des Garcons, which has raised its bar over the years introducing several daring, bizarre and still wearable fragrances that are truly novel experiences. This one is just wearable, leaving anything that might be weird or conceptual just to the description or notes. If you are scared by the gunpowder, don’t be, there is nothing that smells like it on the fragrance evolution on skin. It’s a well done synthetic woody and aquatic confection with an abstract green vibe (and a little bit commonplace too). Nothing amazing, more like average green or massmarket green, but it works, on very hot days it’s pleasant to smell its non offensive mixture of acquatic, green and woody synthetics. Not bad, not great.
cheng1980 – :
absolutely not green at all this fragrance is a totally amount of awful aromachemicals and it stinks a lot ,one of the wrost fragrances ever created by cdg .
totally disgusted by it
3/10
7kit77 – :
I still love it, its green and pretty and reminds me of crushed leaves in the summer. The generic greens can’t and wont do this type of green. Just because its simple for once doesnt mean its bad.
korshun112 – :
I completely echo @Maddyrain’s review I was expecting something uber green from this and instead the generic fresh, aquatic I’ve smelled before.
However, It’s a very nice smelling scent and an inoffensive alternative to the mainstays of Hugo Boss, Calvin Klein and the like for roughly the same price so why not get this? It’s not bad.
GoldMan26 – :
As a tea lover, I think that the gunpowder note is actually a green tea extract from a Chinese tea called Gunpowder. The oil (and the tea) has a sweet, smoky flavour with “copper” note. It probably gave a good idea for the creatives at CdG.
demashin – :
Maddyrain pretty much sums up my thoughts- it smells generic.
Its the originality of CdG frags that gets the audience I think. And to me, it is lacking in this fragrance. It’s a nice aquatic cologne at best.
Never trust a label =)
lyha7749 – :
It’s funny that “Amazingreen” was released by Comme des Garçons and not Calvin Klein or Hugo Boss. There’s absolutely nothing amazing or green about it. What you get is a pretty generic 90’s citrus/aquatic fragrance. A complete misuse of such interesting notes.
Serj46 – :
Tried it last week it opens herbal with clearly smell of green pepper that’s what i got, ammmmm not interesting best thing is the bottle =)
GoAcapulcoNews – :
I think it’s one of the most boring scents of CDG.
I refer to some i’ve had, finally, a combination of fresh green and somewhat synthetic and aquatic together.
It is the typical summer perfume that appeals to most but not innovate, woody nuances light background, it was a launch of houses like RL, D&G, YSL, would be a nice release, but as it comes from CDG, so disappointing.
arlekinderik – :
Amazingreen may perfectly be a creation of Kenzo. Green and aquatic, not surprising at all.
This is not a ‘happy’ or invigorating green, this is a humid, dark version.
It sits on my skin and doesn’t bother me but it doesn’t create any positive emotion either.
The middle and the dry down are better, maybe because of the vetyver and coriander.
A good, comforting fragrance. A scent to use when you want to take a quiet, long walk just by yourself during fall or winter. Introspective and calm.
yuranderson – :
Green? With a lot of imagination but only in the beginning.
Sillage is weak and lasts only 3 hours on my skin.
It is synthetic and musky to me this weird creation.
Mainstream product. No exciting edges nor amazing! Slightly green maybe. The bottle is still nice tho.
User “woodlandwalk” is totally right:
If you want green and like the idea of lemony green roots, leaves and the feel of sun warmed earth under the fig trees I’d say try Ninfeo Mio by Goutal.
Rating 3/10
maxfirespb – :
A quality opening, which is velvet in texture, green with some natural earthy undertones, but it soon fades and looses its way..
I applied 6 heavy sprays
0 – 1.5 hours. 7 inch projection. This has qualities; it is soft, smooth with a delicate velvet like texture which signifies class. It is green with light green pepper and ivy dominates
1.5 hours – 2 hours – 3 inch projection
2 hours – 6 hours – Close to skin and now there is no quality left, this is now very not quality and very poor
Great opening but soon dies in projection and quality, so not for me overall
lomshoole – :
Neither amazing nor green. Faint sweet watermelon. Boring.
xdi742elipseskism – :
In the opinion of many, CdG is one of the best designer houses… But that’s certainly not with this one that they will maintain their reputation.
This is green, but NOT AT ALL amazing. There are only 2 things which could make think that’s a CdG.
– The bottle, beautiful, as usual
– The notes… And it’s such a waste to make a so generic perfume with notes like green pepper, gunpowder and palm tree.
This is not a bad perfume, but CdG has the reputation to be the most original designer on fragrances, and this one is NOT !
Genericgreen by Comme des Garçons.
dnepr_dzk – :
At first smell it reminded me of Kenzo Homme. Green and aquatic. I’ve smelt this somewhere else…
It’s far from being the best CdG scent I have to say. A good scent nonetheless.
BaZXeno – :
For me it has 3 phases but very straight. It “develops” very fast. First, a herbal tang. Second, a few minutes, the smell of men’s cologne generic, and third, an intense smell of church incense.
With all that, like my husband did not put anything hard, I like to use low gourmand perfume and incense gives them depth.
serega37 – :
Truly horrible. The first Comme des Garcons that I have tried that I haven’t liked.
Its starts well with a blast of herby greeness.
Unfortunately that fades to an overwhelming smell of over -ripe melons.
Its that’s what you want to smell of..feel free.
sdwig – :
I’d be impressed if someone’s car smelled like this. Not really a great skin scent for either men or women, in my opinion. The top notes are promising – I do feel I’m in a dark forest with lush trails of ivy, unfortunately after that it fades down to a kind of nasty Appletise air freshener note that doesn’t convince me at all.
If you want green and like the idea of lemony green roots, leaves and the feel of sun warmed earth under the fig trees I’d say try Ninfeo Mio by Goutal
Amphicion – :
This is a fine juice, well-blended, a summer crowd-pleaser. It is as green as it gets. Yet, I expected more, as this can easily be labeled as ‘too safe’ or ‘characterless’ fragrance – not something that bodes well with Comme Des Garçons.
Firstly there is a somewhat aquatic opening with some, to me, unfamiliar leaves and herbs. With the time the scent becomes more green, adding green pepper and ivy leaves, and losing that aquatic note it had at first. The base is still greenish with loads of vetiver and metallic vibe – I guess that’s the gunpowder note – and, while i love vetiver most of the times, this one just doesn’t cut it.
With solid sillage and longevity(especially for a summer fragrance I believe this one is), I cannot say anything bad about the quality of perfume itself. Still, the scent is nothing more than decent, and, certainly, not CdG-worthy.
Given that, I’d give it 6.5/10
asxdf – :
tried it at my local retailer. an enjoyable and unoffensive scent. the bottle reminded me a bottle of remy martin.
think it was pretty linear but didn’t agree with my skin and disappeared after 3 hours or so.
what was interesting was the opening smelled exactly like ck crave (my first bottle, you never forget your first), but definetly a little metalic. The gunpowder, which is what males this frag.
My friend at the time said agreed but she said ‘i think there is tomato vine’. Take from that what you will.
i personally wouldn’t buy it, but as with all cdg definitely worth a try.
acyc – :
Funny I really like this.. And on me I am getting great longevity..
I sampled it on one part of my hand, l’air du desert morocain on the other hand, Penhaligon’s satorial on my arm, and Clive Christians C for Women on another part and it is hanging in after 4 hours with the other high powered juices..
I am going to seriously consider this and Sartorial in the near future.. Good clean, unique fragrab=-nces that once you smell it you could pick it out of a crowd.
The Clive Christian C for Women sample is a gift for a friend but I had to try it.. Its so beautiful that you feel like you are walking through a flower garden.. Worth a try for sure..
Globadfos – :
No-o-o, it is only for men, a lot of vetiver.
sxelia – :
CDG have successfully demonstrated that with creativity and thought, a scent with a strong aquatic accord can smell great and refrain from resembling every other aquatic.
Amazingreen starts with an intense aquatic opening. This is followed by a very intense presence of ivy. Imagine the scent you get when you are trimming your garden bushes. The dry down is musky and there are notes of gunpowder. It is better suited to spring and summer but could go also go down very well on a sunny autumn day. A safe and pleasant offering from CDG.
sumka2211 – :
Cucumber, green sharp grass, herbal notes. This goes on lovely. Fresh, sharp, green green green. Unfortunately it dries down so sharply alcoholic on me that it becomes a scrubber.
сафрон – :
Well as a fan of CDG , i must say i was a bit more loose when it came to read all the reviews here…
It is true that this is not the best of CDG, in terms of peculiarity , but it is ok.
Amzingreen does open with kind of watery herby fruity mangoish opening and it does not change much, u can smell the dark aspect of gunpowder maybe in the first few minutes, but to me it smell like stones and fruits, and does get a dusty kind of undertone and some stages.
the final dry down goes between the level of a generic commercialized perfumes to reminding me of Hermes Un Jardin En Mediterranee , just weaker and darker and dusty.
But the fragrance it does remind me the most is “Gucci Pour Homme II Gucci for men ” and of course again in a very weak way…
I”ll stick to Wonderwood and Palisander .

A nice one, reminds me of CK’s “Truth,” although this one appears to be more natural. Could have been a more exclusive and modernised alternative to Truth. Sadly, it doesn’t even last for 60min, what makes you wonder what the point of it is at all.

Vbirelan – :
Total disapointment from CdG. Neither amazing, nor green – just slightly woody, watery, fruity vetiver concoction with all-but-natural spine. Wouldn’t wear it even if I was given a bottle.
Sirge – :
Like everybody else, I was waiting for this for so long! Finally I received my sample from luckyscent yesterday.
On my skin it is a scent composed of sweet greenish notes over an earthy smoky base (should be vetiver and flint).
I’m disappointed like other reviewers but honestly it doesn’t necessarily mean its bad…it’s just far below our expectations from CdG…and maybe our expectations from CdG were too high!
