If you are spending over $40 for this fragrance, you my friend are an idiot. I had two bottles of this and it lasted 2 hours tops with no projection. This doesn’t stand next to VBJ.

In 2001, Versace released a duo called Metal Jeans, which followed the “Jeans” line and brought, as a concept, the beginning of a new millennium. I had a bottle, but I never felt like writing a review before.
The male version had everything to be wonderful, but ended up being a fiasco, in my opinion. The fragrance was created with notes of watermelon, foliage, tangerine and grapefruit (on top), followed by notes of jasmine and lotus flower (in the body), on a base of woods, amber, musk and oak moss. Interesting construction and disappointing result!
On the skin, Metal Jeans for Men has a fruity and refreshing output, really pleasant. In a short time, the nuances of the lotus flower bring that floral-watery feeling and the fragrance begins to dissipate, without explanation. When you think you will find the base, with its notes of moss and woods, there is nothing else on the skin.
It’s incredible, but Metal Jeans for Men does not last more than an hour on the skin (at least on mine) and left me with the impression of being the “black sheep” of the Versace family, which I love.
After Blue Jeans (1994) and Baby Blue Jeans (1995), in addition to the Black and Green versions (these two I’ve never tried), Metal Jeans came to show that, no matter how big the innovations in the market and in manufacturing, result is not always positive.

I think I’ve found one very close to it – Kenneth Cole Black Bold. I sprayed a Black Bold sample on one hand and a squirt from my 3/4 full stashed away bottle of Metal Jeans on another, and they’re very close.
BTW its nowhere close to Connection as some people say, just a few top notes.
Enjoy!

I owned a bottle of Versace Metal Jeans a looooong time ago! My mind was blown when I saw what it was going for on Ebay, Amazon etc…I purchased BOD’s Midnight Reign fragrance as I had read claims from people on other sites, stating that they smelled the same! I fell for it and ordered BOD Midnight Reign for about $12 shipped. In my opinion, NOT worth the hassle or money for a scent that only hints at Versace Metal Jeans. Later, I purchased Kenneth Cole Reaction Connected…and man I am glad that I did! Smells just like Versace Metal Jeans! (or at least from what I remember) So if you’re looking for Versace Metal Jeans and don’t want to spend $300 on Ebay, go with Kenneth Cole Reaction Connected! I got mine for less than $30 for a 4.2 oz bottle.

I remember it was fresh,sweet and spring-evoking. Not at all strong or long-lasting, but certainly noticeable, surprisingly nice and different, gentle, fresh and warm, beautiful.

I absolutely love this scent. I first bought metal jean after highschool in 01′. That year I went to the Florida classic’s and all the females was on me ohhhh whats that smell, they said lol. I knew I had a keeper. *****ALERT TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR A SCENT LIKE THIS SCENT BOD™ A MEN’S BODY SPRAY MAKES THIS FRAGRANCE CALLED “MIDNIGHT REIGN”, THE COLOR OF THE BOTTLE EVEN LOOKS LIKE THAT OF THE METAL JEAN LITE GRAPE PURPLE CRAZY HUH. ENJOY!

Really delicious fragrance, very good notes. Unfortunately my husband doesn’t like it. So I have it for swap – almost full 75 ml bottle, sprayed just a couple of times. Contact me if interested!

Great scent purchased when I was much younger. I want to purchase again only to find out in is no longer available. It can be found on Amazon or Ebay but the $150 price tag is a bit more then I am willing to pay for a scent. Would love if Versace produced again for even just a limited time.

So sad this is discontinued. Watery tangy watermelon beginning, and fades to a serene musk. It is one of those fragrances that can be confused for a persons natural scent. Very sharp and tangy fragrance. I find it has the similar ozonic tinge as ysl, and despite others reviews on longevity, it lasts all day on my skin. Of course summertime is when this shines. Wear this and work up a sweat, and itll burst out of its shell and be vibrant.
Tyborg – :
Great scent from Versace.
I don’t know why they discontinued this, it was nicely done.
I bought it when I was around 18, and I still love it today.
Because I love watermelons and aquatic fragrances, so it’s no surprise that I love this scent.
The watermelon notes begin to take over after the first hour, so it’s drydown is the best.
The longevity is the only issue, otherwise, I would give it 5 stars.
Great for the Spring and Summer, and quite unique because I haven’t smelled anything like it.

This was a “sleeper” that Versace has unfortunately discontinued. I imagine it was overshadowed by the other “Jeans” in the Versace line. It smells of wonderful subtle fruit and a refined freshness. Unfortunately, the scent is not long-lasting, as others have commented. I wish I had bought more when it was available. Gorgeous stuff.

This was a really fruit intensive sweet ambery summertime fragrance. Some swore by it, and if you were one of those, the good news is that Hilfiger’s Freedom for Him comes pretty close, and though also discontinued, is still available now at bargain prices on the net. Fruity with little to no citrus, that is its charm. Refreshing as can be!

so i just purchased a bottle of 2.5oz on Amazon// bad move or good move? i mean it was only $130 :O but yea wats done is done .. should i just resell it? 🙂

This has always been one of my favourite fragrances. It’s by no means the best but it has a special place in my collection.
It’s light and refreshing, a summer scent that doesn’t last long but is a joy to continually apply on a hot day. Its citrus and watermelon top notes drip with freshness. There are clean, clear flowers there too before settling into the mossy woody base.
I used Clinique Happy as a replacement for a while as the top notes are similar but it lacks body in comparison to Metal Jeans.

I loved this back when I used to wear it. So many memories of my youth attached to this fragrance. A whiff of it and I can go back in time.
eputcdwmmd – :
Refreshing and cool ! Perfectly fit for hot weather (summer). The watermelon is dominant. But it lacks longevity. It only lasts around 2-3 hours on my skin.
serguo2009 – :
A lovely fragrance , why was this discontinued ? always seems to me that the best of versace are always discontinued such a shame ……..:(
iton83 – :
This was a good fresh and clean smell, though in recent times cannot see anywhere else, discontinued
Not very lasting
Clean like a laundry fresh apparel
Old Corpse – :
i don’t know why all like it so much. for me it’s another synthetic “windows cleaner” fruit scent. i don’t find anything special in it at all. plus another “-” for longevity.
PLAKSA – :
I had it several years ago but the smell of this perfume is still in my mind every summer…!
Intonenug – :
A delicious fragrance. I just wish it could last longer… tha lasting power is very, very weak… It stays close to skin within an hour.
🙁
