The opening is more or less a gin and tonic vibe, but after about 45min to an hour the lemon/juniper fade and the other notes start to come forward and that’s when Navigator gets really good. The Sandalwood, Nutmeg, Tonka Bean, and Vetiver are really nice in the dry down. The juniper is there through most of the life of the fragrance but just a hint after 2-3 hours. I think the dry down is what makes Navigator a great find for Spring, Summer and Fall. I highly recommend getting the 100ml EdT. You have to do a little looking but it is far better performing than the 1.7oz EdC Splash and you can get it for around $15.

I have what I think is a vintage bottle, and the only problem for me is that it sometimes registers as seasoning for fish! If that notion doesn’t bother you then if you can find the same formulation that I have I think you’ll be pleased. I’d rate longevity and projection as good, but I didn’t apply much. My guess is that you’ll want what you see pictured above – note that it says that it’s from Canoe. Also, my box has a short list of ingredients on the back.

What a failure! This pretty nearly smelled like nothing to me. It was a little citrusy and nice for like 5 minutes, and then I couldn’t smell anything at all. I’ve never had anything weaker or less lasting than this, even including body sprays. Maybe the bottle I had was really old and had died, but I dunno. I got 0.5 oz for a dollar, and I couldn’t imagine even paying $5 for a full size. I did a test, re-applying on the same little piece of cloth over and over…after 3 or 4 cycles, it smelled just as much like nothing as after the first. Go spray yourself with everclear instead.

This scent is actually produced by DANA now.
I don’t know the specifics as to why Houbigant is not making this anymore.
Fragrantica should know this, but they can get busy with bigger more well known scents.
You may think I’m crazy but this, to me, smells exactly like the VERY much more expensive Aventus.
This can be purchased on ebay real easily for little money. Unfortunately though it has a short lifespan on my skin.

2 funny anecdotes about this one.
1 – I bought it 20€ in a little store next to my home. So I was thinking “Cheap perfume, so it couldn’t be great…”. Mistake. This is not a marvel, an oustanding one, but it scents really fresh, really citric. And as I love agrums…
2 – I noticed that was a cologne after I bought it, so my first impression was “Oh ? Really ? I thought that cologne were awful, old-fashioned and all generics.”
This is really a different one ! ^^’

I enjoy this one.. while it’s not my favorite, it is nice for going out in the morning or just hanging around the house. It is great for the mature man, but younger people like me can pull it off without any problem. I find it to be sort of aquatic, sweet, and a little spicy and I enjoy that for summer. The only dislike I have is that it is a splash and not a spray. But with a little ingenuity, I came up with a little sprayer for it, and that makes this thing last all day!

Got this for a dollar, and I am really liking it today. Dry dry dry green chypre, very green and a bit sharp first on, but it warms as it dries down and I’m left with a dusty green wood and leather that is somehow very appealing. It’s certainly cheap enough to buy before trying. Downside is that it does have a faint edge I associate with cheaply made colognes. Still, it’s definitely worth what I paid for it!

This is a disaster. Has this strong citric smell which is unbearable. However the specified notes are very appealing and that’s why I went for this. May be the planning and intention has been good but the execution/ creation had been a utter flop. I am thoroughly disappointed
