Description
Playboy launches a woody spicy fragrance, named New York, thus enlarging the collection of fragrances which includes Ibiza, Hollywood, Malibu, Miami and, Vegas editions.
New York is a men’s fragrance from the house of Playboy, which represents and embodies everyday life of the metropolis with its woody and masculine notes. The composition of the fragrance is designed for confident and elegant men, who love the dynamics and life. This sensual mix of wood, fruit and spice notes makes the perfect masculine expression.
Top notes of the Playboy New York composition bring aldehydes, lime and vinyl chords. The heart introduces green apple, elemi, black pepper, followed by the base of vetiver, Tonka and vanilla.
The fragrance is available as 50 ml edt, accompanied by 100ml after shave and 150ml body spray. It is presented on market in July 2010.

Fragrance for me rejected. A confusing mix of sweet and sour notes. It seems to sprinkle liquid sugar on it. The Vaniglia-Mela agreement is not at all tolerable, in fact I would say it’s annoying. It is as if I had a patch of cream around my neck that does not want to vanish. The lime could and underline “could” make a difference but since in this fragrance seems completely absent (as well as vinyl) I remain of the opinion that it is one of Playboy’s worst creations.

Truly exotic and elegant smell, but silage is poor.

I was recommended this by Youtuber Joyamin. Very inexpensive bottle, only cost me only 8,00 USD free shipping. Smells very fruity and soapy, like fresh out the shower. It slightly reminds me of Jacque Bogart Pure Silver Scent. Fruity, kinda powdery except Playboy New York has more of a soapy scent.
Sprays well, but projection is weak. Smell stays close to skin and I require more than 3 sprays around my neck to equal 1-2 sprays of other type of colognes.
Overall good buy for the price. I take this wherever I go. My others stay in a collection at home in a cool place where they will not spoil.
Uhjjgftdtru – :
Smells a lot like Mont Blanc Legend (and/or Fierce). It’s a clear clone. That said, it smells like a $5 clone to me. It has a clear as day chemical note at the top (if you’ve ever had a girlfriend use Nair hair remover you know the smell exactly). It has similar synthetic apple/fruit notes to MBL and Fierce and the sweet woody vibe in the drydown.
It has below average longevity on my skin (3-5 hours) with maybe 30-45 min of projection. Better on clothes.
A 4.5/10 for me. Ended up using it as an air spray for my bedroom. Even then it only lasted a short while and still had a bit of Nair funk. It’s a cheap clone that could be decent for younger guys on a budget.
criolan330 – :
I bought this because of my disappointment with Mont Blanc Legend. In short, MBL was so weak I could only detect it for few minutes after application. I gave my bottle to a friend and he found it weak as well so maybe it was a fake or bad batch
In contrast, I love Playboy New York. I can excellent longevity for a cheapie (paid $10 for 3.4oz) and decent sillage, especially on clothes. It’s not a projection monster by any means, more if a close sillage kind of fragrance.
The scent is neither fresh or sporty, not I’d it an aquatic or citrus kind of fragrance. It has a genre of it’s own and unique enough and low priced enough to add and keep in any collection. Other than Adidas Extreme Power I can’t think of another $10 fragrance that impressed me enough to keep. Well done Playboy.
BTW I never owned Fierce and I don’t plan too because as others have said this little cheapie is as good and in many ways better than more costly Legend and Fierce.
DarkTMp – :
007peter, I had Super Playboy and that as pretty much Beckham The Essence but it wasn’t as good. No apple, no vinyl and no aldehydes.
Paradoks – :
This is a hidden gem. Absolutely value for money…This is a fantastic, classy, masculine upper class scent for very less price.
Best suited for colder nights and formal occasions.
People above 25 years would certainly appreciate this fragrance.
This smells far better than most of the expensive designer scents. Suppose If this was from a designer brand, this would have got a better hype and respect in the community
Longevity – 3 to 4 hours
Projection – 2-3 hours
Smell – 10/10
Compliments -10/10
For better performance – spray on skin & clothes
If you are looking for a compliment getter budget fragrance, this is the one……. Highly recommended. Go for it, you won’t be disappointed.
tolyan42 – :
Does anyone here have both Super Playboy and Playboy New York? Both are AF Fierce clone, but how are they different???
tosha_kam – :
so i got a 4 pack of the playboy vip, hollywood, new york, and play it wild and i gotta say….. i am usually soo disappointed when my samples and blind buys come in the mail, and before i open them up in anticipation. i try to already except that they will most likely be bad (because 65% of things i order are bad in my taste). So when these came in the mail today i was SHOCKED when i loved each one of them!!!! this one in particular (the new york one) has a what im assuming must be the apple note, that reminds me of hugo boss hugo. it doesn’t smell like that cologne, but there is something in it that reminds me of that. all in all i love it
Вячеслав Варенников – :
I heard about this from word of mouth. Yes, it’s not expensive, but it doesn’t smell like dime store cologne. I even decided my nephew would like it for Christmas. The scent is pleasant and likable by most people. You can’t really go wrong with it if you’re buying a gift for the 15-25 age range.
димарик – :
In India this perfume costs around $11 in stores. The same price range goes for most of the second line international brands like UDV, Lomani, Adidas and Evaflor et al. Here this would be considered very cheap keeping in mind that one will have to spend $70+ on designer perfumes that people in west call cheap, eg Cool Water. And therefore even cheaper in west designer perfumes are luxury stuff in India.
I said all this to make the point that it smells like expensive perfumes without costing too much money. I love the opening notes of it, can sense the interesting vinyl notes. It’s good in all the phases though.
In Indian tropical weather spray perfumes stay for very short time on skin therefore today I sprayed thrice on each side of my shirt collar (on fabric). It’s staying for hours. I can smell it very well if I move my neck little behind while sitting. I’m sure people who come close to me can smell it, and also when I pass by someone. Fabric also holds top notes little longer which I enjoy.
So, this is fresh, clean, noticeable and expensive smelling cologne which costs less.
mikcola – :
Cheap fragrance but smell expensive.. Rather than buy MBlegend
ohq632speagoessenda – :
Very nice fragance for the price, I paid $5 but it smells much more expensive, I imagine this fragance under a design label, many will pay more. I am very satisfied.
Danil-horev – :
Playboy New York is a nice cheapy but common clone scent but taken in a direction it has never been before. This is Abercrombie and Fitch Fierce, Axe Apollo or Ed Hardy Skull & Roses, and countless other fragrances. But it is one of those with a twist that don’t exist in any of that corner of the mass market chick-magnet scent. While it does open like them a lot, in the mid and base, it is as if it was ever combined with Hugo Boss Boss Bottled but in a summery way like say Boss Bottled Tonic or Unlimited. It is an interesting twist on Fierce. It also shared some gourmandy but not gourmand similarities to Calvin Klein Reveal Men (which came out later.)
I have to give props to whomever at Playboy fragrance came up with that idea for this scent. I know most times Playboy is sweetened if not gourmand takes on popular fragrances (that are or aren’t already sweet scents) but this is really good stuff. It takes Fierce into a new direction and unique enough to not be a straight up clone or dupe like far too many in the market. I’d name them but we all know them and there are too many. That said the notes to copy Fierce are interesting and very New York with the unique vinyl and aledhydes replacing for fir.
From there, it goes into a nearly Boss Bottled direction with the apple and some slight pepper. This gives it a slight feel of the apple and cinnamon you get with Boss Bottled and its various flankers or smell-alike. It is cemented with a vanilla and tonka bean base. The vanilla continues the feel of Boss Bottled but the tonka gives a Calvin Klein Reveal Men on its dry-down.
Playboy does a pretty good job while it lasts. Due to the fact that it is Playboy, you get about six hours of longevity but it only projects maybe two hours at a moderate to soft level. A bit lacking considering Fierce. That said it is a lady pleaser while it lasts. My ex-girlfriend loves this on me.
Overall I can give Playboy New York a 7.3 out of 10. If it lasted, it would be awesome because it took a common style scent but twisted it in its own way. It is the best of the Playboy scents I’ve used honestly. A best of the best in the cheapies.
Byncactuace – :
Fresh, sweet, soft and comfy. Nothing else I can say. Great frag for work and town. Blind buy and a keeper. 🙂
Вова73 – :
Loved it, but it used to last no more than 3h on me, anyway, I would buy it again, reminds me of Montblanc Legend.
fgg178Unlogrere – :
Awesome scent but slightly below average performance
its a cheap fragrance (what you pay is what you get) however I don’t dislike this, I love the scent, its nice fresh and fruity. It’s great for Teenagers and young men.
Just that the performance is the main issue with this. 2 sprays to either side of the neck would get me 2-3 hours maximum.
If you are considering purchasing this I will just let you know that it is worth buying. but you most likely will need to spray a bit more than other cologne/fragrances to get ”standard” power and longevity.
Scent – 8.5/10
Silage/Projection – 5.5/10

ondrya2009 – :
An extremely simple fragrance. I can not smell any spices. Just a somehow easy relaxing fragrance. Fits those days you feel like nothing but a happy easy, fresh, fruty fragrance. Kind of days you stay at home or do nothing special. I could live without it very well but it’s definitily worth having it because of its price & happy fruity mood. 100% synthetic but not bad at all. I do not really like this mini brand but this one & London (my favourite) are fine. VIP would have been my favourite if it had some projection & sillage. Its smell is very nice but zero projection while New York & London do stay for a day when sprayed on both your neck & your clothes
ilqarasb – :
First initial wearing:
This stuff is another great fragrance from Playboy !!!
They took what was great about Fierce (the fresh green vibe with vanilla) and took out the spices that made fierce loud and offensive when over applied. The vanilla in this is really nice as it really smoothed the fragrance out while the apple keeps the freshness.
I like this WAY better than Fierce and Legend both.
————————————————————————————————–
So ive given this fragrance some time and I love this scent !!!
Like I said in the earlier reviews it took what was great about Fierce (The fresh green vibe mixed with vanilla) and took out what was loud and offensive about it. The Vanilla in this is great as it makes this a creamier less offensive version of Fierce but still keeps that freshness. This is very well blended and smells WAY more expensive then what it really is.
What this really smells like though is Apollo by AXE (Which is also a Fierce clone)and the body wash that goes with Apollo pairs perfectly and actually boosts New Yorks scent !!!
Performance on this is great ! It lasts on me 8-12 hours but the only downside is projection is moderate for the first hour but quickly dies down to a skin scent. You can still smell this when you pass someone or if they get close to you. So if you loved Fierce and maybe only want to wear it sparingly this would be a great alternative concidering the price. Its also more subtle so it would be even better for casual use.
AGAIN— I like this smell WAY better than both Fierce and Legend.
Overall rating- 8.5 out of 10 ! Great scent, great price, great longevity !!! If only projection would be better id give this a 9
Kilsimmanny – :
i think liquid hubba bubba…liquid blue candy…strong syrupy blue berry liquid coating…for 7 bucks….u can be a happy ass show off who smells wickedly sweet and its good..then it settles to a lovely skin scent after a bit…its a 7.5 of 10 for me…dont hesitate try it
dmisem – :
Be sure to give this a try, because for its relation price/performance this is a very good scent.
I’ve never smelled A&F Fierce but i’ve smelled Montblanc’s Legend and truly are similar, not only in smell also in quality if you know how much, where and when apply a few shots.
The longevity and sillage increases if you use it in correct seasons like Summer and Fall, IMO this could work the entire year and be like a swiss knife for any ocassion.
I use 4 sprays, 2 in each back of the ears and the job is done, you can apply 1 more in the chest if you want.
I don’t underrate this because has quality in it and works very well on my skin despite is like a “light scent”.
LONGEVITY: Cold Weather: 7 Hot Weather: 8
(6 to 8 Hours)
SILLAGE: Moderate (be sure don’t over spray)
AGE: From 15 to 30
OVERALL: For me this is a 7 to 8 due its price and perfomance, a cheap but good scent 🙂
Geociodygitte – :
I just picked this up tonight at TJ Maxx. I paid $6.99 for 3.4 oz. My expectations were moderate based on the reviews here. This juice exceeded my expectations. Very nice open with a fresh lime smell. After a few hours I decided to smell the spray area on the back of my hand. Very nice vanilla, maybe even chocolate smell after the dry down. This fragrance is a steal at this price point.
anton_dp – :
Long story short….this is Mont Blanc Legend cheaper version. Enough said.
danchick94 – :
i think its very good perfume at cheap price.the first it smell like a fruit.
when it settle down on your skin yeah its smell like musk.though when i wash my cloths and smell after,the perfume still remain with very good musky smell.
GonnupDourI – :
I think the varying reviews for this one are due to the amount you need to apply to get a sense that most of notes seem to be present. I used one spray to the chest and got something that registered as “sharp green,” but not exactly. Within an hour I couldn’t detect much of anything, so I went with three more sprays. Doing this revealed the vanilla quality, along with what I guess is vinyl (it’s mild, not like the tar in A*Men, for example). I don’t get strong apple, lime, or pepper, but I do like the scent. I may have to spray 10 times, but if you can get it for the price I did, around $4 for 100 ml, you don’t have much to lose here! The drydown does not smell “synthetic” to me, nor is it a “vanilla overload” situation, and it has reasonable dynamism. This seems like the most original of the “masculine” Playboy scents (I’ve tried 4 other ones), and other than the lackluster strength, I’m again thinking that the new Gucci, Chanel, etc. scents are a huge waste of money by comparison to a scent like this!
lzrarbdwjfj – :
To me, this one is fresh and fruity, with a sweet woody undertone.
First blast to me is Lime, Green Apple and Vanilla. The Apple actually stays with me the whole experience of the fragrance (which unfortunately is not much).
After a while, i get the aldehydes along with the vetyver and the black pepper. These ingredients were probably added to insert a little depth to the scent, although they are not very successful at it.
Is a very simple fragrance. For the younger crowd, too informal for the office, but great for college boys attending classes or parties (but keep in mind you’ll have to reapply, since it doesn’t last that much).
I don’t get the vinyl or the tonka bean, and i have no idea of what elemi resin must smell like, but honestly i don’t miss them. For the price, is a very nice fragrance, even for gifts. For the everyday use, when you don’t wanna be groundbreaking or wear more expensive scents. Rather colder weather.
Is for the guy who wants to smell nice, freshly sweet, but simple. This guy will not be the center of attention, and maybe he doesn’t want that, he just wants to have a good time, which is alright. He’s the guy who likes bowling over popping champagne, if you know what i mean.
For the price, probably would repurchase for everyday use.
off-scren – :
I´s sucks, horrible, i tried to empty the flask as sooner as i could, i didn’t percieve the vinyl accord, instead i would say it´s like a burning tire or somehing like that
prl786JeomiWogkig – :
This and colors de benetton are my signatures right now. What I wear when I dont want to use up my expensive stuff. Its got a fresh laundry detergent vibe to it. And I have to say I like it,
Maxonus24 – :
Really pleasent smell. For the young or young at heart. It’s a pity that this perfume sucks at the longevity department. Lasts about 3 hours on the skin. Low silage. Hardly anyone will notice you are wearing it.
One thing I found out about this is that you can s spray it on your clothes if you want to make it last a bit longer. Hadn’t stained any of my shirts yet. Silage is still low.
Mexnc914intitytek – :
Good smell, but very low longevitty- 3 hour maximum and very close to the skin 🙁
nejerkos – :
Vanilla note only lasts a minute. After that I get a berry-fruity feel in the vein of cherry or raspberry, mixed with a kind of ‘musty old book’ smell. Chew some red bubblegum in that corner of the library where the really old books are.
Would make a very good ‘night out’ fragrance for younger folk, especially since it’s so cheap. The vague berry note gets a bit cloying in warmer weather.
I’ve only got the body spray but it gave me a good 4 hours from a moderate amount of spraying on my body and shirt. Would definitely recommend the EDT to anyone who doesn’t have any fragrances and wants to get started with something cheap for dates or clubbing/parties etc.
valt50 – :
I really like this fragrance, it is cheap, but the smell is really pleasant. I even like it more than other expensive fragrances, and I´m not embarrased to say it, because it is really good. The smell is very sexy!!
cvbn – :
This has a very fruity note to it. Lot like super playboy. A good cologne to wear to school, office and on. Could even be a signature if you want it. It seems to wear off quickly tho, but it can be noticed a lot.
Got around 5 compliments wearing this from girls. At first there like is that you and they had to kind of get their noses in front of me. wish it was stronger
mazusima – :
Yeah… smells very synthetic, but the fragrance is quite good! It’s sweet and powerful, great for young people.
bev752InsuffBooni – :
Good fragrance and pocket friendly. Nice for teens who might not buy those more expensive brands. Found this in Wal -Greens for 3 bucks!! Similar to fierce.
annadanilka – :
I got this scent based on reviews on this site. I’m actually glad I did. It wears off after a couple hours if you’re outside, and in most cases you’ll get hit by the vanilla tone most. It’s not at all bad, though. I liked it, and I don’t think it’s overpowering, but I’m using the body spray, not the edt bottle.
Danmirosh – :
This smel’s like cheap after shave..ugly bottle also,longevity is about 1h then it’s gone..another garbage scent from playboy..
alesya – :
I have tested this today at pharmacist store. Its smells awesome for the good price. First spray you get alot of mixes aroma its like putting all different types of fruits in a blender and mixes all up. Its a great scent. Must have for summer. I mean hot summer time cools you off with this scent. Even though the price is cheap. You smell yourself and you feel confident smelling good. This is good replacing body spray like axe. Average longevity about 3 4 hours and after that it get close to your skin depending on your skin type. If your on a budget this is the fragrance you need. Great price and keep you smelling for certain amount of hours.
ramonrom – :
Hai Perfume lovers, its my first comment.
Playboy NEWYORK Best fragrant in Class.i like it
ovarall 9/10
Deroxbcncl – :
Very awesome cologne for the price smells amazing on me very long lasting very strong love the smell one of the best love it
SAbangel – :
This is actually pretty good for the price. One of the better cheapy frags. Sweet in the begining, a nice masculine vanilla in the end, not feminine. Thumbs up from me
babosha – :
Used the body spray, purchased it thanks to the reviews here. So glad I did, I can smell the vanilla presence but it’s not too noticeable. I actually prefer that, because I come into contact with a lot of people at close quarters and some like fragrance and some really don’t. So, I smell good and it’s not bowling people over. Actually, the body spray does tend to hang more in the room where I sprayed it rather than on me, and it fades after 5-10 min, but it’s fresh and generally good for what I need it for. Hope this helps somebody looking for Playboy or the body spray! 🙂
sxc105speagoessenda – :
Wow! Abercrombie & Fitch Fierce is what I get. Even my friends guessed wrong. Its worth the money if your on a budget. I wore the Body spray and cologne all day. Lots on positive reactions. It can be a little over bearing within the first 15 mins, but the drydown is gorgeous.
Resident1948 – :
Cheap, yet beautiful fragrance. Im a young black male and I LOVE cologne. I look at expensive cologne all the time, and i even have a few. But when it seems like all of those tend to fail me, I can definitely rely on NEW YORK ! Beautiful spices and vanilla drydown make this a Quality cologne. Got it for $10 and its lasted me for a WHILE.
Longevity- 8 hours – 9/10
Sillage- A few feet 7/10
SMELL- 10/10
8.7 in my book !
dgi_90 – :
A couple years ago when I was 15 and did not wear cologne I had the deodorant body spray of this.
One time when I was wearing it out at night some girls I knew were going crazy! They were literally right up against my chest sniffing me and I was getting so many compliments from how I smelt… lol that’s probably when it dawned on me that smelling good was a good thing xD
But now I CANNOT STAND THIS SMELL! The EDT or the body spray, I hate both of them. I don’t know why, it’s just synthetic and unpleasant and I don’t like it.
It’s very strong stuff (talking bout the EDT now) but synthetic and that just makes it not very nice IMHO.
Try it out if you want.
Peace.
damir8405 – :
I know there are some people who are going to hate me for it (i whas shocked too!) but….the showergel of playboy “no sleep new york” reminds me very much of Creed Millesime Imperial.
I use MI, and the staying power is not that good.
Now i layer it with the showergel of playboy, and it really helps.
I don’t know if the edt smells the same, but try the showergel, it’s very cheap and it works perfect with MI!!
alex985 – :
Its a good scent, and would be a safe blind-buy. Although its my favorite of the Playboy I personally didn’t enjoy the synthetic and sharp scent; I don’t ever wear this cologne going out, but put it on every now and again when I hop out of the shower or before I have people come over. Its unique, interesting, and especially cheap, if you have the chance at least give it a try.
uchihamoradan – :
Good for car as Air freshner
3.Kilos – :
I tried this based on the reviews and honestly hated it. I returned it within an hour. The scent isn’t bad, it’s actually quite good on opening but the longevity and projection solidify the reason why it’s $10. It smells like fierce slightly when first applied but after about 30 minutes, it dries down to this vanilla that just smells like rubber or plastic to me. If you want a cheap fierce alternative, try Factor by electric connections. I got it for $20 off of amazon and it is identical to fierce with the same projection and longevity, since it’s an EDP. I am a fan of bargains, but this is just a waste of $10 that could go towards something much better.
techlan – :
Sweetness layered with some smoky/woody bits. Good cheapie for the first 3 hours.
Intial – 2x sprays on each arm. Bottle is cheap, sprayer isn’t great. Smells artificial.
10 min in – sweet with hints of the black pepper coming out, definitely see the Fierce comparisons. Actually got a random compliment as I walked around Walmart. Far too much lime.
1-3 hours – very good tonka bean/apple with a hint of the pepper, really adds the sexy complexion that other vanilla based frags lack (like Pi). I can totally see younger females loving this scent. Doesn’t project that well unless you overspray in the beginning.
5+ – scent is only close to the skin, pepper fades completely leaving only a apple/creamy dry down. I wish I could reapply at this point. Very safe for work environments, nothing pops. 8 hours in and I still catch a wiff of it here and there but it’s far too close to the skin for it to be noticeable.
Good price. Great scent at 30 min – 3 hours. Great if you can store this in your locker and reapply. Drydown is boring (boss bottled clone). This would be great for rotating with a signature frag during fall/spring as I plan to do. Scent is linear but in the 30-3 hour mark has a great interplay between the sweetness of vanilla and the black pepper. This is a perfect pickup as a backup scent (gym, running to the store).
Scent – 8/10 (only applies if compliments from younger females is your goal)
Sillage – 5/10
Longevity – 6/10 – the best part doesn’t last, but the base lingers on
Final word -Very good for highschoolers – 18ish. Great if Fierce isn’t popular in your area. You will need to OVERSPRAY in the beginning for it to last.
Dramadis – :
so much hate from snobs on here because it’s not a $100 cologne…yes it’s cheap but i think it smells awesome and very unique, (i dont own one other cologne that comes close smell wise)…i have gotten a lot of “hey you smell good” from this and it lasts a long time on me…seriously for the price try it for yourself
asasinoia – :
in alll honesty this cologne is bad! as in garbage it seriously does not last long at all. and ive never got a compliment wearing this one . definetly wont turn heads!.
but just from the price and the brand you shuld know this cologne is going to lack major quality i mean playboy cologne? really?
save your 15$ and put it towards a more quality cologne.
Volnarez – :
Commonman’s Review:
Initial: Smelt horrible initially
Middle (15 mins): after sometime the smell is better but not exactly my taste… i think its a little too soapy and artificial…not subtle. After about another 30 mins, the smell becomes milder and settles down to a pleasent mix of flowers and wood and a few other stuff which is complicated. I think i like the smell once it settles down.
Dry out: It finally leaves behind a light musky smell
Overall: Though the initial tones are not so good, it settles down to quite a pleasent smell. Though it is not of my type.
Usage: Could recommend it for daily office use – unoffensive and mild once it settles
svinkin74 – :
Just got this today at Ross 3.4oz for $9.99… This smells so much like Abercrombie Fierce but add a little hint of vanilla.. I have playboy malibu and it does not stay on my skin long but this one shockingly stays on my skin and clothes for hours.. everyones skin is different though.. lol!! hope this helps
sissyRaxbollaCoili – :
good smell, but very low longevitty- 2 hour maximum and very close to the skin
persii90 – :
Orris is not listed, but I definitely smell iris in this one. One time I was considering buying it for myself despite it’s marketed as a men fragrance(I really like the top notes). But in the bottom it smells to me like sebum and unwashed body – that changed my mind.
andru_xa – :
I bought this as a (much) cheaper alternative to A&F Fierce. It only cost me £8.00 on eBay for a 100ml bottle! The bottle looks cheap, and the sprayer is below average, in fact it’s pretty poor to be honest. As far as the scent itself is concerned, I was actually pleasantly surprised – okay it’s nothing miraculous or deep, but it does smell like a mix between Fierce and Curve, as some people have already mentioned! Lasting power, for the price, is acceptable, I get about 3-4 hours each wearing. Very close to the skin after 30 minutes so don’t expect it to project like a beast!
Can be used for casual wearing/around the house. Possibly used ‘between the sheets’ as it’s not very strong but it will be smelt up close, and will most probably be appreciated by the opposite sex as it is a nice smell!
Overall:
Scent: 7/10
Projection: 5/10
Longevity: 5/10
ya-aleksandr77 – :
A typical vanilla/tonka/sweet-ish/powdery scent of which there are plenty but this costs a lot less than most and is not bad.
Initially smells quite synthetic/cheap with some non-descript citrus but is nicer after it settles. Becomes gently masculine, quite sweet but not too sweet, slightly woody and a little powdery. Smells generally fruity but I can’t really smell any specific fruits. Doesn’t feel very woody at all and I wouldn’t describe it as spicy.
Projects meaningfully for around 4 hours, after which it has little projection. Lasts as a skin scent for 9 or 10 hours. (All based on 2 sprays).
I probably prefer the smell of this to Ferrari Black (I’m not suggesting they are similar – just both cheap vanilla scents) and this is cheaper as well. If I see this at a low price I might buy it again.
A good value inoffensive, pleasant smelling, quite young, sweet-ish, everyday sort of fragrance that punches above its price.
yakus – :
Vibe: Fierce and Curve having sex.
A good cologne for the price, reminds me of Fierce and Curve mixed. (compliment getter guaranteed) this the king of the sub 20$, smells much more expensive.
Opens citric then fades into apple plus vanilla and tonka sweet. Quite nice.
scent 8
price – quality 10
Durability 4-6 hours
Projection Above Average.
mama2510 – :
this stuff stays on me for SOOO long. holy crap. I put it on just to test it again at like 10am. and its 6:50pm and i can still smell it. I keep getting nice wiffs of it here n there so its not bad on projection when its 100% dried down. its only one spray so if you used like 4 it will be really good.
sl108 – :
My Man has this, I bought it for him! i love it on him, reminds me of Fierce from Abercrombie & Fitch and WAAAAAAAY less expensive!
washington – :
After taking the test on their site and discovering this was the one for me, I wanted to love this so bad. I must say I’m only somewhat pleased with the scent. The staying power is nice, especially for the price. Maybe if I give it some more time, the scent will grow on me. It was still a decent buy!

It smells really nice and it lasts more about 6 hours on me… For that price, its a absolutely must have..You can use it for everyday “casual”..
Es riecht wirklich sehr angenehm und der Haltbarkeit für den Preis, find ich eigentlich ganz ok..
