Regardless of the notes listed, Philippe smells very similar to Givenchy Xeryus Rouge – but better and more superior in quality.
Xeryus Rouge always gives me a headache. It is just too strong, hard like concrete, and synthetic. However, with Philippe, I feel it’s organic and breathable.
Both have superb longevity, with Xeryus Rouge slightly above Phliippe; so do its projection and presentation. The fiery red flacon is indeed sexy and inviting!
But quality and scent wise, it’s Philippe.

~ Luxurious ~ Classy ~ Manly Sophistication ~
Sweet and spicy with a Honey/Citrus like aroma neither too sweet or harsh ~
No one ingredient exerts true dominance ~
Easy to wear.
The bottle is heavy chunky glass and the cap is solid and worthy.
A fragrance for the modern gentlemen.

I did a mistake blind buying this. Don’t be fool by the top blast like I did. Smells great but at the drydown it smells dated. Longevity & projection is poor for an EDP.

Received this one today.
and damn, it does smells good ! it’s unique, never smells anything like this before.
like Dremerick said,
its like they squeezed a tangerine into it. and the amber softened it and makes a beautiful juice altogether.
bravo Charriol !
Scent : 9 out of 10 , its unique !
Longevity : cant give the score yet, but seems like it will stays for quite sometime.
Projection : moderate
overall : Give it a try. once you’ve tried it, let us know what the result is.
edit :
after a proper wearing yesterday.
Longevity : 9 out of 10 (10 hours on my skin)
Sillage : become a skin scent after 6 hours or so.
what do you expect?
it is indeed a masterpiece by Charriol !

Gave this a proper wearing yesterday after blind buying; as I love and was so satisfied with Royal Leather and Charriol Man.
Charriol should just put the “satisfaction guaranteed” label on their fragrances . . .I’ve never been anything but totally satisfied with Charriol fragrances. This is true with Philippe.
Initially there is a sweet orange (tangello) herbal smack. This is shortly followed by a true sauna feeling cedar. Woodsy, spicey, and warm. Finally the amber and sandalwood smooth and round out the composition. A very masculine scent. Suitable for any season, day or night, casual or dress. The most easily wearable of all Charriol frags.
I have to add, I have kinda fallen in love with Charriol fragrances. I find them to be of the highest quality, apart from the norm of high designer frags, and very wearable; like a second skin. I would guess its the ingredients and the care given in production . . .but, its like they squeezed a tangello and shredded the cedar and stuffed it right in there. Just like in Royal Leather . . .its like they took the most expensive black leather sofa and fit it in the bottle. REAL . . .not just a good factsimially . . .but REAL.
