To me this is a masterpiece. It is cheap but the smell is not cheap at all. A very nice masculine smell that reminds me my childhood, when my father used to shave and add the splash Denim aftershave. I have the Eau de Toilette and the Aftershave, and they smell almost identical.
A very nice smell for confident man. It smells manly and clean, very barbershop type of smell.
Love this one! a classic.

Excellent, timeless masterpiece, the best Denim fragrance at ridiculous price. Very deep and manly, without unisex-feeling. Recommended!

Serious, fresh, clean and mature without being old, Denim Original is straight testosterone in a bottle.
Smells like classic aftershave with the exception that it lasts all day.
Even the aftershave version is too strong for me to use it on my face undiluted with water, I prefer using it on skin under the clothes and it lasts all day.
0% unisex, 0% feminine

I got this for 8$ in the supermarket. This smells very manly , woody with a bit of resin and green. Definitely the olibanum and the vetiver stand out as most noticeable. I can say I love this. A bargain!
Moreover, the longevity on this is very good… 5-7 hours on me
EDIT:
I realised you can get even a full day out of it, but with low silage..

My grandfather used to wear this. To me it smells like an old man wearing a pea coat.

I have the aftershave and it’s lovely. I feel energized and revitalizes when I splash myself with denim original. It’s fresh spicy and zesty that can last and enjoyed for some period of time. This is safe to buy if you are into classic barbershop or 80s powerhouse and inexpensive.

Dad’s second favourite aftershave after…. you guessed it! good old Old Spice. This is ridiculously good for an aftershave, strong and long lasting. Its structurally similar to 80s powerhouse scents….sorry are we reviewing the EDT?
Oh Okay….The EDT was a surprise for me since I thought it didn’t exist but there it was, not a bad effort but it lacked the strength and depth of the aftershave.
The EDT at the very least needed to be on the same level as Quorum which is cheap but very good.

Got the Edt in Dubai and the after shave in Italy.
EDT:
Has a new vapo precision nozzle , which is simply a stunning atomizer , sprays out so very well and equally and it’s a just a delight to spray it over and over. The fragrance is simple , Musky soap and slight herbal vetiver.. very refreshing and soothing. Nothing to complain for the price. Loving the atomizer once again.Value for money.Performance is great.
Update 28-05-2017:Super Sillage and longevity.
Update 28-07-2017
Such a lovely and pleasing fragrance, its still modern, can be worn in summer (even on the hottest day-40 degree Celsius) it wont get cloying and will still pleas you and your surrounding. Will suit the other seasons also without a doubt. Very respectable longevity and projection. Even if over sprayed it cant offend and the best part …Lot of smooth and rich herbal vetiverish frankincense topped with good musk. Got a backup bottle and will spray the hell out of it on me.
Aftershave:
Spicer and a bit better than the Edt. I had one bottle in 98. This is my second one and brings me sweet memories. Good to carry it along as it will refresh you instantly. Low longevity.Finally happy to own both.

Great value for money to say at least.
Mine got RM22 for a 100ml bottle in Malaysia, and easily can be found at Watson & Guardian pharmacy here. Big supermarket also sell this gem.
Very soapy, fresh, long lasting & matured scent.
I prefer this over Brut although they are usually placed beside each other on the shelves. Brut nowadays have poor longevity, and this one last from my 9 a.m – 6 p.m work time, and the scent still linger on my body before my shower.
I hope they never discontinue this evergreen perfume.

Had this as my first after shave .. so masculine n refreshing,brings back lot of grt memories.sad can’t find it in my country nowadays..
bananaqva – :
Great value. The aftershave has a nice vetiver smell. The shave soap has more bergamont.
necrotayns – :
Incredible value for the money to say the least. Macho dry rough citrusy woody fragrance that lasts a while. Reminds me a liitle bogart signature though i could tell them apart. Aftershave is nice as well. Doesn t lasts much but gives an ultraclean feel that i love. Well done !
kositskii – :
this is not a fragrance for everybody, i can’t say it’s a common sweet fragrance. otherwise is really bitter in the opening and maintains this bitter aftertaste for long time. has a sprakling and pungent smell, that should be the characteristic of man who wears it. younger girlz gonna hate it, personally i like it very much. Very good longevity
Victoria_fromAC – :
This is might just be the finest smelling masculine fragrance I have ever experienced. Vetiver is very noticeable along with amber and olibanum, which I often have difficulty detecting, cedar is also there in the dry down.
For the price you honestly can’t go wrong.
I paid only £4.99 for 100ml
If you are of similar age to me (DOB1960) then I would suggest you take a punt on this, you honestly won’t regret it.
Five stars *****

Very mature and strong scent. Very good value.
taungutle – :
This is a lighter version of original Aramis, but not bad with the longevity and sillage. I got 6 plus hours with the EDT, not dissapointed at all. Try it if you can find near yours, very cheap but very nice quality
dmz8 – :
An excellent men’s inexpensive fragrance. Lasts a long time on me. Soapy and fresh and it puts a lots of designer fragrances to shame! I have the EDT and it’s lovely. Brilliant value.
ernestas0234 – :
This is Azzaro´s pour Homme older brother – launched in 1976 (top notes are almost the same), pleasant and mystic scent…imagine Azzaro without anise but instead with some more citruses and vetiver added and whoa – you´ve got Denim Original. Projection is moderate and the scent itself is longlasting on my skin (6-8 hours).
Edit: drydown reminds me Grey Flannel a lot…
8/10

An evocative music is playing in the background. A woman’s hand with blood red nails, is slowly coming down a man’s chest, caressing prepensely his jeans shirt. She wantonly opens one of its buttons, clearly showing what her intentions are, and then moves to the next one. Before unbuttoning it too, the man’s hand falls abruptly on hers, stopping it. A gruff male voice says: “Denim. For the man who doesn’t have to try too hard…”
It’s 1976. I’m sitting mesmerised in front of the TV, trying to decipher in my juvenile mind what this commercial is about. Words like sex and lust mean nothing to me, and girls are just for scaring them, or chasing them down to empty a glass of water on their heads.
It’s 1982. Girls now mean a lot more than they used to, and I know what sex is and what the commercial was talking about. Theoretically at least. One of my uncles, a not handsome but charming as hell man, has the frozen glass bottle, which some years ago took my breath away, in his bathroom. Without thinking twice, I pour a good deal on my hands and splash it on my face. And I’m mesmerised again. My cheeks become red with excitement. This is the real thing! This is… sex! Or at least how sex must smell like. I exit the bathroom and wait for a while, trying to come up with an excuse for the way I smell. In less than 5 seconds, my uncle raises his head from 5 metres away and with a broad smile on his face he asks “Do you like it?”…
It’s 2014. Nearly 40 years after it hit the ground running, Denim is still the smell of my night-time fantasies, and it evokes the same excitement which I felt when I was trying to understand what was it that a man didn’t have to try too hard about back in 1976. I don’t know of any other product, perfume or not, that goes on with the same slogan for 40 years, which means that the bloody thing works. And how could it be any different? This is one of the most honest and downright fragrances I know, if it doesn’t top them all. It’s raw, it’s unpretentious, it’s easygoing, it’s as masculine as they come. It’s Denim. Simple as that…

I enjoy wearing Denim and feel very comfortable and confident wearing it because I love the fragrance of Denim myself. It has a light, fresh scent that set it apart when it debuted in 1976 and set the stage for other lighter, fresher scents that followed for the next 20 years. Denim has become hard to find in the US but I have lately found it via Amazon.com. The fragrance is clean, fresh, and pastoral and wears well though the day. Longevity is excellent for a light scent, and I believe the sillage to be intriguing and slightly mysterious – “what IS that fragrance, and WHERE is it coming from?” And as zouve said above – Denim is old school without being old, and a great value, far less expensive than most of the fragrances that followed its lead.
