A very nice, very well priced fragrance. As others have noted, it is an inoffensive, summer dumb reach with some good longevity. Although the scent is nothing spectacular in and of itself, the fact that it is different from other “summer” (citrusy, aquatic, etc..) scents is what merits buying it.

As much i wear this, more i like it. Simply fantastic!A great fragrance from Mr. Lagerfeld.
hju225elipseskism – :
One of the great summery fragrances! So well blended…i love this one! Even beeing a summer fragrance it performs so well. Buy it…in my opinion, obviously.

This is a cheaper alternative to Terre D’Hermes Eau tres Fraiche. Very Similar orangy opening and woodsy backbone but with reduced spices and added sweet ambroxan base.
Boise de vetiver is fresher and more mass appealing but it has less performance. Moreover, it has a lovely note in the heart that reminds me slightly of YSL lhomme Ultime, problably the rose/ambroxan combination.
For the price it is an excellent choice but Go for TDH Fraiche if you found it discounted with a good deal (50 USD/125 ml)

lavender and rose, a lot of it. smells clean, sharp, but somehow cheap.

Hidden gem from Karl Lagerfeld! Citrus, minty, rose based fragrance which does well for all seasons. It’s one of my top 5 office fragrances that won’t offend anyone. This gem will always be in my arsenal.
manhunt1987 – :
One of the most misleading names in perfumery. There is really no wood and hardly any Vetiver here (I’m a vetiver fan, so I know what to look for). I get mostly Blood Orange and Patchouli with some Mint and minimal Rose tying them together. The mint and patchouli take the sharp edge off the citrus and make it very smooth.
That being said, it is a very non-offensive fragrance. It can be unisex and seems to be best for a younger crowd. The high-schooler that finds this fragrance will be popular for sure.

@ffunch. That is clearly olfactory fatigue. This is very common with fruity fragrances. Same happens to me with this fragrance, Creed Aventus, Mercedes Benz Cologne, Guerlain L’Homme L’Eau Boisée, Guerlain L’Homme and Dunhill Icon. I cannot smell them anymore after roughly an hour, even though these fragrances are known to have quite a good performance.
If you want to check the real performance, just spray it on your wrist and smell it once an hour. You will notice that it is still there after many hours.

This smells absolutely great. The grapefruit, vetiver, rose thing is very attractive. Perfect for summer. Can’t offend anybody.
However, the performance is puzzling to me, and ultimately not so good. I had put my first spray in my elbow, and it seemed to project well from there for several hours. Even after I took a shower later, I could still smell it clearly. But when I put it on more “properly”, on my chest, several on my neck, on my elbows again, it seemed to quickly go away. I renewed it several times, because I couldn’t seem to detect it, and still nobody else seemed to notice it at all. However, when I woke up the next morning, the scent was very clearly there again. Do I not sweat enough during the day? I’m not sure what the deal is.

I’m surprised to read so many people emphasizing the performance while to me the scent was actually quite nice but the performance was absolutely horrible:
The opening was nicely different compared to so many blueish fresh summer friendly scents. There was a peculiar depth to it I quite couldn’t put my finger on, it might have been the musk. I tried it on my skin, 3 sprays of which one was on the wrist just to make sure I can still smell it later when it settles down.
Less than 30 minutes later I could barely smell anything unless I specifically sniffed my own wrist. I would walk around the town, inside a shopping mall and outside, it was not windy either, the weather was fair but still… Absolutely nothing. My fiancee couldn’t smell it either, she had to stick her nose to my neck to smell anything. The scent had settled down to a very simple “fresh clothes” smell in a matter of 20-30 minutes. and it was so close to the skin you had to literally put your nose on the skin to smell it.
Weird…
Not a bad scent, I actually quite liked it even after the drydown. The opening was the best part of this fragrance for me, the drydown was a bit too subtle and vapid. However; even though the longevity was alright (around 6-8 hours) the projection was so non-existant you might aswell say the longevity was only 20 minutes because after that you smell next to nothing unless you keep your nose on your own skin.
Take this with a grain of salt, people have different types of body chemistry, for some this might project better, for me it is one of the weakest fragrances I have ever tried.
Ventris – :
A little bit of YSL Libre the first hour, then you have a smooth and gentle aura of citrus around you. No love, only a like for me.
Roferorkneurf – :
This is my dumb reach for hot, humid summer days. It stands out from all the in-your-face mainstream lemon/lime scents. It is fresh, yet sophisticated, VERY easy to wear and more unique than your typical citrus fragrance.
The performance is very good, not just for a freshie, but in general. I easily get 8 hours with this fragrance. These 8 hours are me being able to smell whiffs of it myself. So probably people around me can smell me even longer than this.
(Back-up) bottle and blind-buy worthy.
Scent: 9/10
Projection: 8/10 (Soft to medium)
Sillage: 8/10
Longevity: 9/10 (All day, unique for a freshie)
Versatility 8/10 (Spring/summer)
Uniqueness: 10/10
Price-performance: 9/10 (I think my 100ml bottle costed me €25,-)
Total: 9

Very pleasant, fresh, safe and uplifting but with limited performance scent suitable for summer daytime. In 8-9 minutes it becomes a beautiful skin scent.. if it was a little stronger I’d buy it immediately. So good… I’ll try it again.
Speasiaph – :
There is absolutely nothing manly about this, maybe in the dry-down with a dose of wishful thinking. Otherwise it is a pleasant smell, good longevity, fresh, fruity without being overly sweet. I did not keep the bottle, but it is a great juice for very reasonable price.
*I changed my mind and I am keeping this one. It just smells great. It’s so fresh, but I mean it in the fresh-fruity-yummy sense. It has almost mouth-watering qualities. This will keep people around you.
gsy807JeomiWogkig – :
Just got this in the mail today. Bright & fresh without smelling like everything else that’s bright & fresh in the mainstream. I’m really into this. Performance is good also.
mawinnuysait – :
Blind buy worthy! Just got this in today and yes it has some similarities to declaration and tdh but I would say it’s closer to tds eau tres fraiche with the geranium note. Sort of the best of both worlds I would say.For the money you can’t go wrong. The blend is impeccable and the smell is outstanding.Great scent for spring and summer for sure.
9/10.
opifex – :
This really took me by surprise. It smells good, and not generic yet a mass appealing smell.
It is not a projection monster but smells good from the first spray till the dry down.
Great scent specially for the price
DISCOKILLER – :
سعره جيد ,,ورائحته عادية,ولذلك السعر او الثمن هو من يغريك بالشراء لهذا العطر
manrs6 – :
Just smell this on the store last week. Quite a nice scent and with a reasonable price it think i would be a great cheapy.
Update 18/03/18
Test again on the store…this time I sprayed on my hand…till next morning it still noticeable…definitely 10hr+ performance. Will buy it soon
Update 04/18
Finally bought this frag couple weeks ago. No complain what so ever. Fresh, quite unique, office appropriate, good performance, reasonable price. Blind buy worthy.
PASCAL – :
Classy name and bottle might suggest a different olfactory experience.. what I get on my skin is an everlasting, never-evolving lemongrass/eucalyptus. Something that in summer would keep mosquitos away. If it’s vetiver we’re talking about, this perfume leans on the greener side of vetiver, not the grey one so sought after. There’s nothing misty nor woody, just fresh and clean and harmless with moderate sillage.
Kind of uncommon (in the contemporary range of mainstream perfumes) yet similar to something I can’t recall.
Blind bought due to small price, I wouldn’t call it a safe buy unless it’s summer and you’re camping..
Update : I kind of underrated this perfume when I bought it but it grows as you wear it. Pretty linear but not a dumb perfume at all. A crispy and sunny autumn day may bring the best out of it. Clean and super-uplifting.
fwi942Diobtetty – :
Really nice! not really expensive, clean and very pleasant. all the notes are very subtle but the performance is amazing.
great blend
mafusail – :
This was a nice surprise! Just out and about today chillin’ downtown. Bought this on a whimp. Came back home and saw that this was in fact a brand new release. Don’t get much vetiver, but what the heck; this is a soothing and calm green-ish scent. Thumbs up from me!
otheteHet – :
just got this as a blind buy as at a super cheap price – nice clean fresh masculine scent – nothing special but your not paying for that either
-=Li=- – :
First impression. I don’t get much vetiver either, if any. I’m enjoying it though, and it reminds me of the Dior Homme Sport 2017 due to the blood orange. I didn’t like DHS 2017 at all, but this one I like.
It lasts very long on my skin (12 hours + effectively), and I can still smell it on my hand after one spray 20 hours ago, even after a shower. In the last stages it even reminds me of Bigarade Concentrée.
A couple of women at work liked it on me, and I’ll be trying it out further. I wouldn’t go more than 2 sprays by the way.
DRXRS – :
No Vetiver what so ever here. All I smell is a Citrusy/Floral scent that is incredibly similar to L’Eau par Kenzo pour homme, which is good but not original. Kenzo does it better.
volvofh99 – :
a light version of declaration de cartier
in test but due to the cheap price i paid it ( 36 euros ) i love it…. for the moment a good smell for less price 😉

This is a really sexy, manly smell. It’s clean without being citrus, and earthy without being woody. Reminds me of something and not sure if it’s Bvlgari for men – just can’t quite remember. Bought this in store for my boyfriend on Saturday and just fell in love with it on the spot. Only £30 for 50 ml boxed. This is a good aftershave. Timeless.
