I bought a bottle of this in 2004 and I thought I had read that it was a gardenia scent. Apparently I was confusing this with the feminine fragrance of the same name. However, the entire time I wore this (2004-2005) I smelled gardenia and musk in this because that’s what the power of suggestion can do. In retrospect, it’s not that far-fetched since green and floral notes combine with coconut and fig to create a soft unisex creamy floral that can, with some misinformation, make the leap to gardenia. So I am sticking with my original description of this in its’ vintage prime: Marc Jacobs Man once smelled like a memory, something washed away by rain and time, of a glamorous dandy in white tie and black sequined tuxedo slippers, wearing a fresh gardenia boutonniere still chilled, straight from the florist’s fridge. It’s not the kind of scent that paints a vivid picture, crisp with detail. It’s more like a watercolor or a blurry photograph. And that is appropriate for Marc Jacobs who often takes gaudiness of fashion past and recontextualizes it by presenting it in a new way in the blurred, light-saturated, pale photographs of Juergen Teller.

I was utterly in love with this fragrance when it was first launched… Sophisticated, elegant, discreet – nothing similar to the usual bombardment of masculine fragrances. The bottle was gorgeous, the name was simple! However, I believe it suits better younger ages. When I was 20 it was perfect. It had this naïveté, this care-free attitude. I don’t feel it expresses me any longer. Also, something has changed sadly in the quality of the juice. After half an hour you can hardly detect it on your skin. I recently tried it in New York in an attempt to reminisce… The past belongs to the past!
dcy129JeomiWogkig – :
I tried hard to like this fragrance. I think I bought and returned it twice, because I loved the idea of a fig scent (years ago, I’d fallen hard for a Calvin Klein fig scented candle and vowed that if anyone ever made a fig fragrance, I’d buy it by the gallon) but the execution here is terrible, probably due to budget constraints on the formula.
Never before have I experienced a scent that seems “off”, even when freshly applied; there’s something here that instantly comes across as musty and ripe, no doubt the cumin. I don’t mind cumin in perfumery (I adore how it’s used in Le Labo’s Rose 31, for instance) but here, it’s less Indian spice shop and more “I’ve worn these gym clothes for a month straight without washing them.” Funky and gross.
Diptyque’s Philosykos and L’Artisan’s Premier Figuier are much better examples of wearable fig fragrances, if that’s what you’re in the market for.
SnemP – :
When I sampled this I thought it was pretty nice but when I purchased a full bottle I felt like I wasted my money because of the similarities to good life and new york musk. All of these fragrances are crazy similar even in The weak strength. They all smell good but miss the mark of ever becoming a signature scent due to how low the silage and projection is as well as short longevity. I won’t be rebuying this because I already have goodlife and NY musk and feel as if I wasted money on both, now I have one more fragrance that smells similar but isn’t gonna get much wear.
uty249Bessinepome – :
This perfume made me realise how much i detest fake fig fragrances… its not for me and i hate when i smell it on others too
casher – :
I was working event for COTY, who now owns Marc Jacobs, Vera Wang, and Calvin Klein perfumes among others after they bought Procter & Gamble fragrance division, and it was given me as a present.
On opening it smells like a hair spray. Later it smells like all mainstream perfumes, both male and female, were mixed in one giant barrel, and then watered down in half.
Totally faceless uninspiring perfume.
I can only see me wearing this if I’ll go shopping in Walmart, which I do no more often than once in 2-3 years. I guess it would make it a gift of a lifetime? LOL
Scent: 3 out of 10
Longevity: 5 of 10
Projection: 4 of 10
Silage: 4 of 10
EDIT:
Ok, after giving it few more tries, it is little bit better than I originally thought. I can give it 5 out of 10 for scent. I could also wear it when going grocery shopping, not only to Walmart.

dimon27ru – :
I love this fragrance with all my heart and I definitely respect Lucas’ dedication, however this fragrance is not discontinued. About six months ago I called to confirm this with the company and it is still available for purchase on Marc Jacobs website and in his boutiques. To me this is a warm, slightly tropical but cozy scent. I don’t get a “green” vibe from this at all. I bought this for my boyfriend years ago and he must be on his fifth bottle by now. If he only knew the reason he’s going through bottles so fast… I’m wearing it too. Lol
laven – :
and yes. i have to agree on this one, it’s GREEN !
imagine yourself walking in the fig garden, with fresh cut coconut in your hands, that’s how i can visualize this scent through words.
Scent : erm 6 out of 10 (its way tooo “green” for me. and yes i can see myself as a “walking tree”) lol, but its not that bad. maybe its good for summer night out, something casual? not really. its better worn outside i think.
Longevity : Moderate, got 3-4 hours on my skin. 6.5 out of 10
Projection : Soft. and im glad for that. if this were Beast. damn. what will they say? A GIANT TREE CHOKING THEIR NECK? lol.
overall : Try before you buy
MOLODOY83 – :
A very classy and seductive men’s perfume which I love. The fig notes combined with tonka beans notes add an air of safistication to this perfume which is irresistable. A must for those evening’s you want to impress!

@Lucas…did you really buy TWO HUNDRED bottles? Can you use so much in your lifetime? I am in awe of that…wow!
alexii – :
Lovely, beautiful smell. Unfortunately, it doesnt always last long on me. I still love it!
Верный – :
This perfume is has nice soft coconut-figgy note which makes it perfect but also unique scent for summer wear. Only fault I found with it was that it didn’t really last long (Max 2 hours) or project well. Since it costs $130 AU for a 125ml bottle, the premium price doesn’t warrant the purchase.
инкогнито – :
My ex gf bought me this in 2004 or 5 and since then I wear it everyday.
when I heard it was discontinued I went to the cosmetic shop and luckily it was on sale so I asked them to get me ALL the bottles they had available in ALL their stores in the whole Hong Kong so I bought more than 200 bottles!
Needless to say I love it ! 🙂
thepro11112 – :
I enjoyed this ,it smells like milky coconut,but the longevity is substandard.
Perhaps if it came in a smaller bottle i would buy a little but not a big bottle.
You could get a similar effect with coco butter lotion
I feel that this is unisex as with most gourmands.
Anastasiy – :
MJ Men is nice and smooth. This is another fragrance that is absolutely more suitable to those warmer weather days when subtly is all that is needed.
magic_godby – :
I have been brought up to a Mediterranean seaside place where the landscape is dominated by olive and fig trees that you can find in abundance as well as cypress which is used in order to separate people’s fields and mark the space with it’s dark green presence in a vast landscape of green and silver that commences from the shores of the sea and climbs up to the mountains.
The salty sea breeze blends with the aromas of the trees, the herbs and the flowers as they coexist in an incredible balance.
I think that this perfume is the only one I have tried that is able to convey all these with such clarity as it manages to recreate in a totally three dimensional space this Mediterranean vibrant landscape and its wild but also balanced beauty.
I recall my father and our endless walks at those fields where he used to define certain herbs or flowers, to tell stories about them or to reveal to me some of their secrets. I still remember our favorite place under the cypress where we used to gaze at a colorful sea of trees at the one side and the real one at the other and also swimming during the summer time. The salty fresh air and the intense aromas of the fig trees with the cypress in a superb coexistence is what I mostly detect at this perfume and this is the main reason that I adore it as it instantly places me to this landscape and awakes all those precious memories.
vfefelow – :
I am on my 2nd 125 ml bottle. This stuff is just heavenly. I prefer it over Diptyque’s version. This is pretty much the perfect daytime spring/summer scent. Straight up figs and that’s all good with me. One that women can easily pull off as well.
andrey59 – :
Love this fragrance. It may not be for every man unless they are in touch with their feminine side, but why let that bother you or even question it? How can some people not smell fig in this? Marc Jacobs + BVLGARI Eau Parfumee Au The Rouge together=FIG HEAVEN.
Ruriourifremy – :
This stuff is kind of strange, and I didn’t like it as much as I thought I would. It is indeed fig and coconut, and opens green and creamy, and not very sweet. The combination is very tropical and refreshing, but it shares some of the bug spray aspect that intrudes into my enjoyment of Tommy Bahama…just a slight chemical edge. It starts to get less green and more spicy after a few minutes, with a little bit of the rubber smell of brand new sneakers. The green foliage also starts to return, but this time it’s musty and fetid, and no longer tantalizing. Fangorn forest, where the Ents live, probably smells like this. I like how the stuff never gets out of hand in terms of sweetness, but as it progresses it just gets too dirty and staid. By the end, there’s a big component of soggy, rotten rubber from an old shoe, with the foliage of an office ficus trying to keep it pleasant. There are so many better fig fragrances that it’s a bit of a waste of time in that arena, but it’s not too bad overall.
voron9394 – :
Im surprised many are saying it has not longevity or projection. I get hours of this on my skin even after shower if I don’t scrub off hard. It is very masculine as well while beach fresh and nightlife sexy. It is not feminine at all but possible worn by women. I get compliments of all ages and sexes. It becomes darker and creamier in warm weather and it becomes a rich sexy fresh magic scent in cold nights when out with the friends or ladies. This is a great fragrance that recall all at once a, woodsy forest like nature, with fresh sudsy soapy clean out of the shower feeling, rubbery-like fixing a flat tire on a new car in a new suit handsome gentlemen and a sunny beachy sexy island after a long tan on the sands and ready for the nightlife. take a deep whiff and imagine all that rolled into one.
Хитрожопик – :
A great creamy fig based scent. I wish it had a bit more projection power because it’s a safe scent with a calmness to it. I had the chance to wear it for a majority of my summer, not yet for spring but I feel like it would be perfect for spring. Sweet fig, with a coconut scent to it, unique to my nose at least. Also, with 4.2 oz I spray this 5 times on me because of the weak projection and there’s so much juice to be used.
Legorsek – :
A mild sweet mixture of coconut, fig and clean watery notes with a very, very soft cedar background. While its mild and one might think the sillage and longevity are weak, they really are not. I thought so too initially, but Ive had people comment on it at the end of the day after I applied it in the morning. There is something about this one I like. Its perfect for an office environment or a lazy sunday afternoon. Its refined and not over powering. It may be slightly too sweet for some, but for a fruity sweet scent it def smells like a man’s cologne, and not unisex at all. I applaud Marc Jacobs for making something totally unique in such an over crowded marketplace. Thumbs up.
Meehl000Bessinepome – :

Nice subtle scent with a great smell!
RusAk – :
Smells great. Doesn’t last long though. Very soft scent, after maybe 3 hours you can’t really smell it unless you put your nose near or against the skin you sprayed it on, so I like to spray in on my shirt. It’s a great scent if you just want something to wear and don’t feel like wearing something strong.
lox683speagoessenda – :
I actually ended up buying this but took it back. Terrible longevity. It’s not really even considered a “soft” scent to me. Just unfortunately a waste of money.
Viktor007 – :
smelled every scent in sephora and ended up blown away smelling this on paper.
hatunzew – :
Tried this at the store today and wow does it ever smell awesome! As everyone else says, very creamy and it definitely has a coconut vibe but as it drys down you get a floral thing going on with the coconutty (figgy) vibe in the background. I love fig and coconut (I must have 4 or 5 frags with coconut as a note) and this does it in a way that is masculin and has absolutely no sweetness. Yes it only lasted 2-3 hours on me but that is ok as I would be happy to re apply this hourly just to smell that opening. Awesome stuff and I’ll be getting it and dousing myself all summer 😉
Sultan2394 – :
Marc Jacobs Men is soft, sweet and taps into something in me which I can’t help but love.
I like to think I’m into manly, dark, woody, peppery, spicy, incense etc… fragrances but give me something soft and playful like this and I revert to being a small child craving the sweet and comforting.
Opening with a lovely fruity citrus and cardamom I was happy enough but then it reveals a fig based fragrance which is sweet and creamy probably due to the combination with Tonka bean. Fig is one of my favourite notes it would seem and I’d go as far as to say this is one of the best fig scents for men. (although it’s very unisex)
I have Fico di amalfi (soft, citrus fig) and love Philosykos (stark, green fig) but I don’t think this is all that similar aside from it having fig as the centre piece. It’s soft Like Fico but has a creamy coconut accord and gentle woods which set it apart in my opinion.
Longevity is okay but not great and it doesn’t really project all that much but smells great and the bottle is cool!
aleks1206091 – :
It is very unusual(in good way) fragrance that you can love it or hate it.
I love it by the way because i adore the distinctive fragrances that have no simillarities to anyone else on the market and this one did it very well on that.
Perfect for spring and summer, day or night,the dry down is amazing(especially on clothes that lasts longer than on skin).
I love the fresh clean sensual soapy scents,my only complain about this one is that it could be better to longevity and projection but in any case thumbs up Marc for the wonderful and unique scent.
dedenefifebak – :
A mellow yet rich presentation of the fig leaf with nuances of butter, coconut and an underlying musk that hints to the smell of skin several hours after the application of sun lotion, once it has been absorbed into the skin, leaving it toned and nicely conditioned by the sun. Suitably casual, yet elegant enough for the office, perfect for warm weather… (Tip: if you are into this kind of scent and you enjoy a traditional wet shave, it layers very well with Geo F. Trumpers Coconut shaving cream). The scent seems to pass quickly yet compliments still come many hours later in the day… A nice and easy tropical fig scent to wear in the hot months, perfect for BBQs, garden parties and/or beach vacations. Just add a suntan and a Mojito… Cheers.

I Love this Fragrance,
I wore it 24/7 back in 2004-2005 and whenever I smell it now it takes me back.
I know it has lots of notes, but i just think of it as a fig perfume. lol. and i love fig.
i’ve been thinking i might introduce it back into my library and make some new memories with it. Unfortunately its really hard to find in Australia – Bang seems to have taken over – and i’m not a fan of the peppery hit of Bang.
Buy this fragrance if you want something Classy, fresh and clean and if you don’t want to smell like every other guy at the bar.
Пакасть – :
I bought it long time ago. This is elegance perfume.Good for office day time.Mild cypress and gentle coconut smell.It make me feel good.Long lasting is ok not bad,Suitable for summer time or raining day. Best one from MARC JACOB.
Dariy13 – :
Hint of coconut, quite warm, musky and that’s it. Quite boring, never drew compliments and on that note, I will never buy again.
splinter – :
i’m sorry but this was one of the very few frags that i just can’t get to liking :c
it’s very coconut suntan lotion like. Buttery in a way, yes. I can understand that it is likable, but it’s too clean, beachy, cotton dinner suit, clean shaven impression i get.
It has huge projection and is very long lasting too, so you better like it if you try it.
Also, most people don’t realize, that “plasticy synthetic” note… is actually Cyclamen. it has an odd… sweet greasy lipstick like scent that is in other celebrity Diva frags i do like.
so try going to the Garden section at a mega store, and sniff around!
лена-роза – :
Very mildly coconut or woody. It’s hard to tell because this is so timid.
It’s boring, has no longevity at all (it’s gone on me within an hour) and no sillage. To quote Luca Turin about another fragrance, about the most you can say for this is that it has a smell.
Why are there so many of these glutting up the market?
Traumfraufan – :
Marc Jacobs for Men is a soft, thoughtful fragrance. It is comforting but still fashionable. It feels silky and a little buttery. It has a tropical essence but in general I think it’s just very appealing and alluring. None of the notes are loud or bold in any way. I am very surprised to see people say that it is boring, because I think it was actually an edgy statement to release this as a masculine fragrance, especially a self-titled one.
Just to put it out there, the bottle is awful. It looks like a paperweight you’d find on the desk of a used car salesman during the late 80s. The bottle is very wide and flat with the atomizer placed directly in the center, which makes it awkward to press down with your finger while your hand is holding the bottle. It feels as though you could drop it easily. You may even have to use both hands with the larger size bottle, which is an absolutely glaring design flaw.
I greatly appreciate that Marc Jacobs for Men is relatively inexpensive compared to similar designer fragrances when you consider the price per ounce. Even though I love the way it smells, I will definitely pass on a purchase, because the projection is extremely soft, to a degree that’s unacceptable for me. I say this completely without hyperbole: it has probably the worst sillage of any fragrance I’ve tried. My final verdict is that Marc Jacobs for Men is a wonderful scent with dreadful performance and a terrible bottle.
raduga5 – :
BEAUTIFUL!
sprayed this on my wrist right now. and it just takes me to an island paradise. white sand and the blue ocean in front of me. eating macadamia nuts and got coconut juice on my right. no other person on my sight. just me and my perfect beach vacation.
honestly i don’t care about longevity or projection ‘coz then i’ll just spray more. besides this for me is a scent to be enjoyed by myself.
naruch89 – :
A great fragrance if you don’t mind the fact that it smells like so many others in the genre. I’m wearing a sample right now and it reminds me very, very, much of Guerlain Homme, a bottle of which I own, and which also shares the same abyssmal longevity that other people have complained about here. If you have never smelled scents like Guerlain Homme or Prada Luna Rossa (which this also bears some semblence to), and you enjoy a pleasant, lime-infused, smooth, safe, rather generic, citrus affair, then perhaps this fragrance is for you. If you only wear unique, classic, amazing or attention grabbing scents, I’d pass on this one for something more a bit more… intriguing.
Par for the course, yet pleasant: 7.5/10
Nomneisem – :
The initial smell is like cocunut and vanilla, some spices as well. Dry down is nice but it fades quickly. Projection is horrible as well as longevity and that is too bad, because the smell is very inviting. It’s almost unisex. Try it.
дороль – :
Love the smell for an hour, then goes to shit! Wont purchase ever again and this is my second bottle.
xxxlten – :
I agree with what’s been said: a really lovely, powdery blend of fig and coconut with neither note dominating the other. It smells wonderful but has horrendous longevity and next to no projection. If it wasn’t so pricey, I’d suggest it more as a body spray than a fragrance.
As someone already mentioned, Diptyque’s Philoskyos does the smooth fig thing well, but lacks the complexity of the Marc Jacobs. Also, the Demeter Fig isn’t bad and actually lasts longer than this one does.
barsu-olga – :
A coconut-smooth style frag which opens up warm ,cosy and so lovebale, but it goes close to the skin quickly and does not last..
I applied 6 heavy sprays
0-1 hours – 1 foot projection, “All you need is Love, Love, Love” , The Beatles… This is so special and lovely- not unique as a number of female frags are similar – but just what I want. Coconut and melon come through but both are not listed!!! So I assume this is the mix of cardamon and tonka bean. I feel content when wearing this, like someone special is with me and I am in love..
1-2 hours – 4 inch projection.
2 – 3 hours – 2.5 inch projection. Please don’t go
3 hours – 6 hours – Close to skin. Gets a little dated in the drydown
Please release an EDP!
olga-mikki – :
Smells like coconut. I once had Paul Smith’s London for Men and I was very contented with it. When it was discontinued, I started looking for a substitute until I finally found this scent. It is similar, but not as good as Paul Smith’s on my skin.
Quite linear,with cardamom and tonka bean overshadowing other smells. Lasts 3 hours on my skin.

Tenho certeza que o Marc Jacobs não usa e nunca usaria esta porcari… digo,este perfume em sua pele. Sacola plástica de supermercado com côco. perfume chato, enjoado. ARGH!!!!

What is going on with the Fragrantica page on this one??
Its not a woody scent its a fresh fruity fig scent.
The notes stated may contain those, but you mainly get wet fig leaf, fresh fig, coconut, and the usual citric top + wood base.
Its the most beautiful fragrance esp in summer, totally understand some people having a hard time with it.
To me i find it fairly linear it doesnt change all that much but im glad it doesnt.
Its more of a memory fragrance now as ive worn it through some of the hottest summers and on holidays.
The nearest thing ive smelled to it would be Philosykos by diptyque but there not that close.
westkc – :
Marc Jacobs for men was not a signiture scent but one of my faviorites back in the late 2008 and early 2009. I loved the smell in the winter although it is supposed to be a more summery smell. I loved it back then, it was sexy and fresh, yet light and sweet. I havent worn it in three years and decided to get another bottle. For some strange reason I do not like it as much as i used it. Not bad but certanily not my go to by far. I do like the soapy, powdery, clean feel i get from this.

A wonderfully unexpected fragrance for men that steps outside of traditional gender based norms. worth a sniff if only because of its unique characteristics.
Very sexy if you ask me.
Кристина В. – :
On me, this fragrance gives off that sweet, creamy coconut-like scent from the fig note, and then follows up with something underlying it similar to an almost fennel or anise licorice-like quality. Not in your face, but very subtle, and adds some nice depth underlying the sweetness. I get compliments quite often with this from women that smell it. Most definitely not a wet dog smell on me, but it’s pretty obvious from the reviews here that you will want to test this one on your skin.
afn63 – :
Smells very peppery to me but when i put it on my skin in smelled exactly like wet dog. On paper it smelled good thought, but beware blind buys.
netde – :
even tho it is not listed in the notes it has a bit of a cocunutish vibe goin on but longtivity and projection are very poor especially for a designer fragrance not worth the money
sanya54306 – :
This is my ultimate summer fragrance. I was taken over by its mischievousness and androgynous characteristics. It evokes very fresh & milky coconut note, which is practically non existent among perfume’s ingredients. That said, I see quite considerable resemblance to Diptique’s Philosykos, thou the latter is much greener on my skin.
The fig in here is succulent and fresh, wrapped into delicate oak-mossy veil.
I am a huge fan of both coconut and fig based fragrances so such gems as this one make a real treat for my senses.
kuklimanna – :
This one opens very promising: freshness with notes of fig and coconut, quite different. But after some time it develops in a cloying combo of flowers that doesn’t smell natural and becomes musky and powdery. The projection is good, but the fragrance doesn’t lasts long.
I won’t buy this one again.
draraffinee – :
Marc Jacobs is one of my very favorites. That coconut scent and the overall balance reminds me of candles when I was a kid, love it. This to me is a masterpiece.
Addimilal – :
This is very nice! I love it for night time. I cant stop smelling the bottles top alone. It makes me want to spray it eachtime just to smell it on me again but then i would just be wasting it. I get many compliments. Sometihing about it is very gentlemen, young sexy but also clean refreshing and beachy. I see people are saying they sense coconut & I thought I was the only one but no coconut notes. strange, even has a pleasant tanning lotion scent. I hope Mark Jacobs releases a Parfum version to have a longer longevity. I also noticed that some bottles have different boxes and some the liquid is a darker yellow while some are very light yellow. They are not fake nor went bad. They might have just been reformulated. In anycase they smell the same to me. Wonder if one of them has longer staying power.
kot0907 – :
Marc Jacobs for Men is a fragrance that conquers slowly, it is a very elegant and fragrant soap, note that more strikes would seem the coconut … but I’m not so sure that it is coconut, is a wood and superbly proud that fancy to the senses … a whiff away
brings me to a seaside resort in summer over a large terrace located on top of a cliff, perhaps around the cypress trees that are leading this wild and pungent smell …
but the smell certainly does not end here, the bottom is pure luxury is indeed outrageous is so opulent and rich, in essence it’s something exceptionally good although perhaps not widely known.

makarov13 – :
An exotic and fresh scent.
Opens with a cypress and remarkable bergamot, cypress here does not make smoky, by blending with cardamom and a light touch of ginger.
The heart comes with fig and light floral touch of pink. The fund with the bean that merges with the previous combination and refers to a buttery coconut tone, fig mostly with other notes have a milky aroma, so it gets that way later in the drying light patchouli nuances, musk and moss, these give a slight refinement to fragrance that is very unique.
Rating: 8,5/10
Shadereorma – :
I have been wearing this off and on for a while now and I have to say I really like this. I too wondered about it not lasting but I have found that if I just give one more spray the lasting effect is just fine at about 6 hours or more for me.
I simply don’t smell coconut like other people have mentioned, but what I do get is a very nice waxy floral that reminds me most of gardenias. Perhaps the coconut smell people get or the gardenia smell I get is the fig. I love the smell of gardenia and the “heavy” waxy smell really says summer to me. (EDIT: This aroma has to be the fig.)
Too bad about the reviews here because this is an unique smell and I quite like it. Could become a signature scent for me. On second thought, I am glad for the somewhat negative reviews here…that means not everyone will be trying this. If it were more popular I don’t think I would like this as much but since nobody seems to wear this, I LOVE IT!
As one last note, it is no wonder this unique aroma won a FIFI award in 2003. There is nothing quite like it that I have smelled. You must smell this one if you want something that is not ordinary.
sindrom-72 – :
if only this lasted!!sprayed it on my skin and in just over an hour,the scent was gone leaving behind a faint trail where i had to really struggle to smell this on myself.
I do love the overall smell regardless of the figs or coconut smell that many are talking about.My nose sniffs out the unusual so it should have been ok but given the price I would have loved to have a fragrance that saw me through at least 3hours.
wouldnt say no to owning one but there are others that offer what it promises for less and longer.

Marc Jacobs Men é um perfume para o dia dia.
É chic e as mulheres gostam do cheiro. Homens também gostam. Tem um lado meio sujo, meio rustico na base. Particularmente não sinto cheiro de coco, mas já me pergutaram (uma pessoa). É um perfume transparente, light, a fixação dura em média umas 4h. Por não ser forte, vale a pena abusar um pouco mais, e ficar com o cheiro mais tempo.
Não considero um perfume pra noite. É dia mesmo. Combina com bermuda, calor, t-shirt, camisa, praia, cidade, jeans, blazer… Pode até ser usando para noite informal… boteco, barzinho, pizza, sair com amigos… ETC. Atenção: light porem estiloso. Perfumes com madeiras sempre são estilosos e de personalidade. A declaração da última mulher que setntiu o cheiro foi: “…Nossa! que cheiro bom de homem.”
