….Iam afraid I underrated this scent a bit. As you keep on using it, it actually reveals more and more of its beauty. Lingering very nicely and showing nice touches of the original but being more soft and summery. Very nice and sophisticated indeed!!

Its Samourai for the younger aged! Less character then the original yet a nice, fresh scent for casual occasions as it radiates an easy going feeling. Its not in the same range with those unbelievable AD Fragrances like Plus, Iquitos or even Samourai original, but still a very tastefully done happy scent in its own right! Top notes are happy fresh and fruity while the mid notes and dry down strongly remind me of Puma Create which is a very underrated, nice fragrance. So in general tumbs up again for Monsieur Delon!

In comparing the notes with Samourai, it seems this one is a more complex version. I haven’t smelled Samourai before, but I got the EDT of 47 in a lot of fragrances today because I wanted the women’s fragrance in the lot. And this one is the first I selected to wear because it had me at the first sniff!
I can certainly understand how it has acquired it’s admirers. This is such a nice *UNISEX-ABLE* impressive find, & a lot better than some of celeb fragrances out there. Even tho it looks to be dc now, there is still a good bit of it on ebay so if this is your signature, you might want to stock up on it. If folks ever realize what a super deal it is for the money, it might quickly get gone! It certainly smells of quality ingedients, gives me the impression of a self-assured cosmopolitan bold enough to do the unexpected that disarms & draws one in, then morphs into it’s somewhat linear base notes that just seem to hold you captive until it is through showing the strength, worthiness & character of it’s tenacity & intoxication. It is strong, a gorgeous creation suitable for either sex.
The top notes are stupendous in the opening! Just the tiniest dab on the inside of both wrists & as I watch it dry on my skin, I can’t stop smelling my wrists! The opening is just PERFECTION! Actually, the top notes that open this spellbinding gem are my favorite aspect of it. It is bold with the ever bright, sunny lemon with it’s tartness! This lemony phase is perfection & I wish it held that opening effervenscense throughout it’s embrace, or maybe just longer! But for those that are not that fond of lemon or citruses take heart, as that opening act is quickly over. Tarragon is a teasing herbal ghost in the initial opening & it adds a nice, unexpected note with it’s fast flash of what smells like dried anise but that darts past quickly in herbal green leaving me wanting more. It’s as if the tarragon is hiding, waiting for the warmth of the skin to release it, & the instant it does, it burst out of hiding so quickly seasoning the opening lemon. It brings such a fascinating soft herbal quality momentarily, but, for me it is a phantom. Just as quickly as I realized it, it was gone leaving anisic trail momentarily suspended with lemon & lavender awakening. I never realized I would love tarragon in a scent like this, but I am a believer now! This opening is bright, sparkling, clean, refreshing, with a slight sweet-tart crisp lemon to clarify the palette, wake-up the olfactory senses & cleanse them with it’s promise of brilliance. But alas, once it has done it’s job by sending the sunny brightness of clear delectable & tart lemon to cleanse, stimulate & prepare for Act II, it is all too soon quiet now for the next scene.
Ah, the gorgeous lavendar, jasmine, delicious plum & powdery rose to all come to play & work their magic in the forefront of the stage for Act II. Each is in perfect balance—the plum, a surprise but blending so well with the somewhat soapy floral lavender. And all the while the smokey, smoldering sweet aromas of the base notes providing a solid foundation for all but remaining in the background while the others perform impeccably. It is during this phase that it seems somewhat feminine to me. It still has a light bergamot & plum fruit lingering just lightly as it’s really tenacious strength is about to unveil it’s true muscle.
WOW!!! the beauty of the balmy woods, vanilla, musk & amber. The cedar is even still lightly detectable after 7 hours along with sweet woods, vetiver, vanilla & amber that smoulders sweetly. Such a tenacious blend.The longevity is incredible—12 hours on me!

I first saw this on the shopping channel and bought for my hubby who loved it, I hunted all around our town for it and could never find it so glad I have found it again.
viktoralmaty – :
A great favourite of mine.
The sillage is great,and longevity good.
Can’t really see any comparison with Chanel Allure Homme Sport.
If I had to compare this to anything,it would be Goodlife by Davidoff.Another excellent fragrance,now hard to find.

Hellooow… how could Samourai 47 be a clone of Allure Homme Sport if it was launched in 2004???!
Samurai was lauched 2 years before this Chanel…
Eeeer!

Not much to say about this cheap fume other than it is a fleeting (and more affordable) clone of Chanel’s Allure Homme Sport. Clearly aimed toward sporty youth, so if you are one, go for it. Otherwise, just don’t expect too much novelty.
