pleasant but very light and thin to my nose-too bad as if it had the umph of quorum original it would be awesome.
yvg123JeomiWogkig – :
I own Lalique Equus and Azzaro Visit and Quorum Silver is the same style of efgragance but they DO NOT resemble each other.
Quorum silver is more spicy, ginger and pointy. Equus is more elegant and refined and Azzaro Visit is modern and incense.
tlx507Negeltzex – :
Oh come on, it’s so good
(for what it’s asking)
It’s asking for a few dollars and in return it gives you a warm, classy (enough), fresh, smooth, spicy, cedar wood scent.
It’s an everyday day scent, you may not be
inclined to wear on the day you’re looking to impress someone with a scent that may have the exact same ingredients but in a different order.
aleksdar – :
If I were a beaver, this fragrance is what I would want my Christmas dinner to smell like.
Cedar with cinnamon, nutmeg, and other spices and sweetness…basically a dessert wood.
It is very close to Lalique Equus…this is louder than Equus though.
This fragrance and others like it have a dated smell..Equus and it also reminds me of Ferragamo Homme.
Not a bad room freshener or if I want to smell a spicy cedar bomb, but I can’t imagine putting this on my own body and going out in public.
lord111111111 – :
Sweet cedar with excellent longevity and moderate projection. The dry down definitely loses its sweetness and develops a “pencil shaving vibe, but it’s nice.
Purchased as a blind buy and was not disappointed.
Also buying this for my father. I think it’s suitable for 20yrs or older.
KAPAHDAW – :
Most of the reviews I have read about this fragrance talk about a dominant cedar note with very little else. Maybe my bottle is reformulated, but to my nose it is a very well blended cologne where cedar is just a part of a whole, not dominant at all. Azzaro Visit and even Lalique Equus have a much stronger cedar wood note than Silver does.
Mandarin and lavender get few votes at the ‘main notes according to your votes’ list on this site, but on my skin and on paper these notes almost remain till the end.
I find this cologne very sparkly fresh and spicy and it reminds me of Terre d’Hermes and L’eau Boisee, it is that good.
maksernik – :
This is simply for the businessman who knows what he wants
Wundermann – :
Starts off smelling exactly like cedarwood – it’s as if I’m smelling a lumber yard, but mixed with some slightly sweet spices (possibly nutmeg and ginger). This fragrance leans masculine but could be unisex due to the slight sweetness. It basically smells exactly like wood, pencil shavings and all. As it dries down it still smells of cedarwood predominantly, but I can now also smell nutmeg, ginger, pink pepper, and a small hint of cinammon. This is like Mr. Burberry but less sweet (way drier) and without the citrus topnotes. If you want to smell like a lumber yard (but without smelling bad per se), this is it. Sillage is moderate while longevity is also moderate at about 4-5 hours. I wish this was stronger in longevity and sillage but it’s to be expected at $16 per 100 ml. In any case, it really gives an authentic feel of wood but with a slightly sweet/spicy aroma to it, so I really like it.
4.5/5
Androngtd – :
Every time people notices me when I wear this perfume. It is less expensive and I love to wear this with my formal attire. It last almost 5 to 6 hours. Top Notes are really amazing.
CHamrmyQ – :
This one is a bit underrated. It’s in the same family of fragrances like Gucci Rush and Azzaro Visit. It has a cedar-chest vibe to it but in an appealing way. With its freshness, this one can definitely be worn all-year round. A decent cedar scent for men.

Hey, this is “gingerized” version of Azzaro Visit! Also the cedar is different than Azzaro Visit, it’s dry but not as warm. I think the nutmeg aspect is also a bit toned down in Quorum Silver, making it a fresher alternative to Visit. However, both are amazing scents and should not be a substitute for each other, and should be a must have in the collection!
Needless to say this is more wearable than the original, and has nothing to do with it too.
For spicy cedar lovers with nutmeg roundness, this beats most of the designer fragrances on the market both in performance and price. Actually, it’s amazing for the price, this could easily be sold at a 3 times higher price tag. I got mine from Notino for 17 euros, knowing this can be found even cheaper.
It’s an all-occasions, all-seasons scent. You won’t annoy anyone with this, just go easy on the sprays when going into close encounters or using it in warmer weather.
Very satisfied!
erurlertyk – :
Very fine cedar…hmmm but Azzaro Visit better!
jeanmicheljarrie – :
Just really good. Simple and straight forward woody, light spicy, a little sweet. “Silver” is a great name for this scent. I love to wear this when I want a light hearted, masculine, long lasting, quality fragrance, regardless of the season. The price of this is just ridiculous. Either Puig is going to go broke charging what they do, or every other house is making piles of money off of all of us.
Just a note- I layered this on top of Encre Noir today and the combination was wonderful. Encre Noir acts as the bass section of the orchestra here while QS plays the violin/viola/cello parts. Harmonious blend of cedar with the vetiver and cypress.
vol4ara – :
Good Cop to Quorums Bad Cop; still a strict disciplinarian but much nicer in person.
Honestly, i have to start wearing this more, as the longevity lasts no joke all day and what is Quorums up front woodsy mossy powerpack softens in the drydown with an almost cashmeran note that really works for me.
Boss777 – :
Masterpiece for dirt cheap price ! Makes you wonder why other “good” fragrances can cost that much.
Amazing cedr-nutmeg scent !
snazik – :
Oh my, why don’t more people know about this gem?
Very complex, fresh yet fruity on opening. My nose smelled Beechies peach flavour chewing gum.
Lightly spiced, mind you.
Some might find it too sweet when it opens. For me, it’s something different. And I like it.
vadol68 – :
Cedar and lavender are what present with my physiology. Very cold, sharp cedar and lavender in near equal parts on me. It lasts a while, but it’s very sharp. That’s the best way to describe what it smells like on me, clean and sharp. It’s almost antiseptic, being that it’s very clean but without a soapy smell. The performance for the price is great, the lavender is not overly sweet and the cedar is just that, cedar. After a solid bit of the bottle I never got another scent despite what’s listed. It doesn’t smell woodsy so much as like a cedar chest, possibly filled up with some fresh lavender flowers and left over night to really mix the scents. I can’t imagine a lot of compliments or complaints about it from your surroundings. And although versatile, it’s hard to imagine a scenario where this would be a preferred scent. It exists, and if you wear it someone may smell it but will likely dismiss it as quickly as it is inoffensive but not memorable. If you don’t wear it, no one will likely ask what happened to that ‘one scent’. Maybe someone working in a lumber department, covered in saw dust of other woods, this would stand out, as they would smell like many woods, cedar, and some clean lavender and any other notes listed that may come out with their biology.
flt360Unlogrere – :
This was on my “to get” list for a while and I found a gift set with a 3.4oz EdT and a 3.4oz Aftershave for only $10 at TJ’s. Like Quorum and Aqua Quorum this is quality juice at an incredible price. I love cedar and Quorum Silver is one of the nicest cedar fragrance I have come across so far. I am very happy with this purchase and I would highly recommend this as well as Quorum and Aqua Quorum.
julia_koluzanova – :
Very nice long lasting wood scents. It is also excellent for layering with aquatic EDTs. This one goes to my “prefered” list.
alexp20 – :
This was exactly what I was looking for, a cologne that’s smells predominately like cedar; at a price that dosnt make you feel guilty for daily use. Initial spray deffinitely has a strong “old man” scent to it, and the cedar isn’t obvious. 5-10 minutes in it settles into a deep masculine scent with a sweet cedar/woodsy smell. I’m not picking up on some of the other notes others are, but I also don’t claim to have a refined nose. It seems straight forward, and that’s what I like about it. This scent gives me a nostalgic feeling, almost like I’ve been taken back in time 🙂
alexsetas – :
I hated quorum but love Silver.
Great scent. Pretty linear but smells nice
Decent performance.
Versatile but reccomend spring or summer day!
nickolassperf – :
This is the most ethereal composition in the Quorum family. Compared to its brothers it has a hard time fitting into a certain niche but I think it serves the modern man really well. A dry, woody scent with some spices coming into notice later on, giving it a warm and relaxed feel. Versatile and good, definitely worth the price.
vitalyi099 – :
This is a fantastic scent to an unbelievable price. Whenever i buy Puig stuff, i inevitably have to ask myself, why the hell are we asked to pay those unreasonable prices for Dior, Chanel, Creed and Co.?
What i do have to say though is the fact that this fragrance is not all about Cedar. Cinnamon is actually the more prominent note. To me its more a cinnamon than a Cedar scent and after 10 minutes when the ginger fades away, it becomes very similar to Davidoff Horizon and i also smell a little bit of CH Prive in this one. Anyway, great scent, great value for money and nothing to complain about at all. Way to go.
ameldplem – :
I bought this one hoping for a stronger, longer lasting version of Lagerfeld Kapsule Light. At first, I was disappointed, since there are few similarities between the two. However, Quorum Silver grew on me. It’s an excellent woody/spicey blend for day-to-day use.
redwolf – :
QS smells great. It is an intense and exciting blend that really surprised me. The quality of the composition exceeds those of many scents at a much higher price point. As noted much, the dominant note is cedar, but there are several aromatic accords encircling and amplifying the woody core. Its a really great buy. Another plus is the intense spray!
emintailt – :
If there’s an underrated fragrance, that’s Quorum Silver…it’s not good, it’s great!
I presented this EDT to my brother last Saturday and, when I found out how good it was, I thought I should have bought another one for myself (or kept the one I gave to him, he he he!). Upon spraying, you can feel a blow of cedar, ginger, and lavender that is superb; its aroma is classic, but by no means is it dated. Two hours later, the citrus starts to subside and the woods become the protagonist alongside nutmeg and cinnamon. In the final phase, the cedar gets reinforced by account of guaiac and vetiver, and it stays the same until the perfume fades out.
Quorum Silver, like I said, is so nice that you wouldn’t mind buying it for a higher price–there are hundreds of perfumes that sell for steep prices and aren’t half as good as this one is. I might buy myself a bottle on upcoming days because, trust me, it is that good! It’s also safe and versatile, which makes it a good blind buy.

SuncanaVuji – :
Astonishingly good. This is shiny happiness in a bottle. Truly makes me wonder why so many other fragrances are so expensive.
Kalyan – :
I just purchased the 100ml edt & aftershave for $7.99! This is to date my best buy in my collection. The other comments about this being a cedar bomb are accurate. Dry, woody, and a bit of amber to sweeten things up a bit. As this contains quorum DNA, I recommend this for the 30+ crowd. It is not for young boys. Its not nearly as dated though as the original Quorum. It’s lighter, more modern, and masculine.
IdequeceR – :
i’ve been looking for a total cedar bomb, and from creeping both here and basenotes and this is a name that’s come up a lot. i’m happy i went off everyone’s recommendations for trying quorum silver, as i’ve enjoyed it quite a bit (especially the price). doesn’t smell cheap at all, definitely has quality ingredients for the price. decent longevity, moderate silage.
i’ve been pretty crazy about cedar, but whenever i’ve enjoyed it, it’s usually appeared in a sweetened, more sappy style. silver is quite different with its application of cedar, as it pushes it towards a more, dry, sawdusty, smoky aroma. it’s not necessarily what i’ve been looking for, but i enjoy it nonetheless for this unique facet. this aromatic facet is pushed even more but the nutmeg, ginger, lavender and patch; which is what lends it a more mature quality. the amber comes up out of absolutely nowhere in the dry down and interrupts the dryness, adding a warm sweetness to the scent which makes it so, so cool to wear. I’m young but i enjoy it nonetheless and been complimented on it before. i wear it whenever i’m feeling ~manly~ and kind of want to intimidate, as it’s an odd scent to be wearing on someone of my stature. it doesn’t end up being dated, but it certainly reminds me of early-mid 2000’s mens perfume.
if you wanna smell like expensive wood chips, this is a great pick. if you really enjoy your wood, it’s definitely blind-buy worthy.
mazdasDjagas – :
Quorum Silver is a great smelling, relatively long lasting, big bang for your buck fragrance.
It’s also made by Puig who, in my opinion, puts out and continues to make some of the highest quality fragrances that don’t smell synthetic and beat out many houses that sell juice for 5-10 times the price.
Quorum Silver is a bit linear, in my experience, but has always gotten compliments; not only from my wife, but from men and women I work with, waitresses at restaurants and bars, etc. It opens up with lavender and a slightly citrusy peppery ginger with a definite presence of cedar. The citrus and lavender fade and the fragrance dries down to a lightly warm and slightly spicy (amber and nutmeg/ginger) cedar and woody scent that lasts between 5-7 hours. The amber is anything but “old man/woman” and the spice is fresh and not a stagnant cinnamon/clove that people normally expect when they hear “spice”. It’s warm and strong enough to wear in colder weather, yet dry and fresh enough to wear in the summer.
Some people say it smells mature, but I disagree. I’d agree with it being “mature” if mature meant college-age+ as this never goes anywhere near the geriatric powdery-floraly-musk that I associate with more mature fragrances.
Even as a blind-buy Quorum Silver is a no brainer.
VANDAL – :
Third day wearing this, and I’m absolutely amazed by how good this smells, specially considering its price. Currently, my (tiny) perfume wardrobe consists of: D&G Light Blue, Polo Sport, Mont Blanc Starwalker and Individuel, YSL L’homme sport, l’eau d’Issey and J-PG Le Mâle. Despite Quorum’s low price, I consider it to be at the same level of any of the above.
stalker1941 – :
Just purchased a 100 ML bottle.
It smells like the 80s; very, very dry and masculine. It reminds me of a scent from the 80s, only I’m not sure which one. Maybe Kouros? A change from my recent purchases (YSL l’homme sport, Mont Blanc Starwalker, D&G Light Blue…I think I have too many light/watery perfumes). Now I’m back to smelling like a man, hehehe.
Arudakovskiy – :
Huge bang! If you spray and sniff right away. It is quite nice after it starts to fade. Very dry, cedar all around and woody.
Stays on clothes until the time you launder it.
7/10
brigreeinnots – :
Saw this opened and used on the clearance shelf at Marshalls’ and I gave a whiff expecting the worst and was surprised. Its actually quite nice. Woody and complex with just a hint of freshness (must be the cedar and lavender combo)and not cheap smelling in the least. This can easily be repackaged and sold at Neiman Marcus for $100+ and nobody would bat an eye. It has a kind of Guerlainesque feel to it. It is a little mature smelling (I hate to use the term “old man”) so I would not recommend for a young sporty guy, but at the end of the day I give this a thumbs up. Its nice.
ngi024speagoessenda – :
Blind buy from Marshalls last night for $7.99 for 1.7oz. Best bang for my buck EVER! Most blind buys under $25 usually disappoint in someway; great smell but last less than 2 hrs, synthetic bomb etc. This is a great fragrance by Puig. I highly recommend.
I agree with just about all of the positive reviews below. Woodsy/cedar sent that is both cool and warm with the pepper. I am thinking this will be great on Fall afternoons. Wearing it now and enjoying it tremendously. The cedar has depth but not as strong and rich as the cedar in Gucci Pour Homme. More reserved and that is a good thing. I did get an initial associations with Horizon and to some extent and later an accord shared with Polo Explorer. It is fairly linear, but seems to get better as the day progresses. Classic. Refined. Well put together.
Aram333I – :

Soft smell of chemical grass or burned grass. I like the smell but not wear for my self.
blum15 – :
An amazing underrated and inexpensive fragrance. Fresh, woody, long lasting and floral. One of the nicest and also cheap perfumes out there. It’s an 8/10 for me.
oyv891InsuffBooni – :
I had high hopes for Quorum Silver, given the quality of the previous two scents in the line, which are actually distinct scents, sharing only a name and a bottle design. Sadly, this was the first of Puig’s Quorum scents to disappoint.
It’s not that Quorum Silver is a bad fragrance. It is fairly unique, insanely inexpensive and obviously made from quality ingredients. The problem is, you have to really like cedar to like this scent. I had read the reviews before buying Quorum Silver blind, and I thought I could handle it. But it turned out to be way too much cedar for me – it completely dominated all the other notes.
I grew up in a cedar-clad house which, in the summer, would give off a hot, dry, resinous cedar smell. Quorum Silver’s cedar scent sits somewhere between that and a pile of cool pencil shavings. The effect on my skin is reminiscent of the scent of a house in the woods, a sauna or a stationary cupboard, none of which I particularly want to smell like. Especially not for six hours, which is how long this will last – with decent projection if it’s hot.
Overall, Quorum Silver isn’t a bad scent. You just have to be sure that you really like cedar. And I mean really, really like cedar.
rustalive – :
A masculine unique smell. Bought it based on reviews and was very happy. That hasn’t happened since!
botsyk82 – :
This is a great underrated well blended scent i love it.
Lorchi – :
Slightly peppery, soft, warm cedar is all I get from this. Lots of cedar. It’s not bad and I like this more than Azzaro Visit but it’s kind of a boring fragrance. I prefer original Quorum to this.
innasan – :
Such a pleasant, slightly citrus, cedar-fresh fragrance. I really enjoy this. I had a bottle turn recently, after about 7 years, and immediately ordered another. This is one that is enjoyable for both wearer and for others in the wearer’s presence. It is reminiscent of the old classics, but not at all “old” smelling.
This is classy and natural enough to be a formal scent. If you can’t afford the $100 stuff, you aren’t missing anything at all with this instead.
ckfdfvtldtl – :
An absolute steal for its price in my opinion.
Blasts off with a spicy pepper undertone that melds into a smooth woody/incense as time goes on. Reminds me a little of both Dunhill’s “Pursuit” and “Sliver Shadow” by Davidoff, while still having a character all its own.
A really nice modern take on the original Quorum, as this version is more understated “Silver” can be worn for many different occasions.
Thumbs Up!
greendizer – :
The opening is the most interesting part. Its a burst of spices and freshness with a strong woody scent. As it dries down its a nice woody amber scent. Its great for a work scent or casual outing.
djpapa – :
such a classy fresh smell…big sprayer….educated consumers know whats good n whats garbage….this will please you… & dont let the 10 dollar price tag frighten you…buy 3 bottles..its soo worth it
koldun_62 – :
I’m amending my previous review a little. I’ve noticed that the longer you wear this, the warmer and smoother it gets. Cedar is definitely still dominant, but it has less of that pencil shaving smell than it does in the beginning. I can detect very subtle hints of amber and some other spicy notes, which augment the cedar and smooth it out a bit. In fact, the whole fragrance smells a lot like incense after about 4 or 5 hours. Nice.
Vitalik8888 – :
I have always been a big fan of the original quorum. After sampling quorum silver I must say that it is a WOODSY blend. This cologne is for anyone who is not afraid to explore and exhibit a very smooth, sexy, sporty and sensual scent. It reminds me of Perry Ellis 360 for men but with less complexity.
netzabluzhdu – :
When it dries and sets the odor ( about 3 or 4 hours) the dominant note is cedar. Quorum Silver if you have development and evolution. In the early hours nutmeg , cinnamon and ginger are very noticeable with cedar.
Do not listen , Quorum Silver not only smells of cedar , also smells during the first hours to many other notes and even the particular smell of guaiac wood .
Meolp479elipseskism – :
Cedar, lots and lots of cedar. There are a few other notes in there but I’d say 80% of this is cedar. If you don’t love cedar, you won’t like this.
I will say that it does have a sharpness to it that perfectly matches a light gray suit and a pink shirt with blue-lens sunglasses.
Not bad, especially for the price, but something like Dunhill Edition has more depth.
If you’re into layering, try this with original Quorum or Krizia Uomo.
jester_tm – :
very close -GUCCI RUSH with nutmeg 🙂
12 USD for 100 ml -good deal
Super fragrance!
Noizeeq – :
I’ve been wearing this all week after purchasing it so obviously I love it! I wish it was a little stronger is all.
I don’t get the “dated” or for “a certain age” analysis I see on here all the time, either you like it or don’t no matter what the age or if you smelled something similar on your grandpa and if you did so what? That just means your grandpa knew what to wear!
I wear what I like, don’t care about age or anything else…
dandi – :
I admit it may be a great scent, but I can’t get passed how dated it smells. It brings back memories of growing up in Brazil while smelling this type of scent from time to time. Regretting the blind buy now.
titan74 – :
I got this for about £12 from Amazon. In a month where I have spent nearly £2000 on frags and having had the buyers remorse in nearly all I can say this is 1000 times better than some that cost 1000% /ml more. I am god smacked how good this is. This is a find and typically Quorum, only designed for the 2010s. It is like Ginsberg is GOD, only 1/11th of the price. Its longevity and projection is not as good as the Quorum of old, and one can see that when they tell you that you pay more for the packing, bottle and marketing than the value of the perfume in the same said, you realise that the cost cutting in the quality of the bottle which is now not high end nor is the box. However those are not the essential components, in this case I think you have actually spent money on the contents. If only I had bought this first I might have been able to bath in Domperidone Champagne instead of a collection of bottles and cellophane wrap by my niche buys and listening to Jeremy Fragrance! Infact I am going to recommend it to him.
nick2000 – :
Absolutely love this fragrance. Along with Polo Green, it’s my favorite of all time. Frosty, woodsy, wintery. I’ve always thought it would smell attractive on a woman too.
Smug – :
Really fantastic scent and lang lasting is perfect the smell a bit like armani attitude in my opinion not like azzaro visit u never go wrong to buy it
Сергей-DRS – :
Quorum Silver is a wonderful scent. The guaiac wood and cedar are showcased with balancing sweetness provided mainly by ginger but also relying on the cardamon and cinnamon. Beautifully blended for sure. I love Azzaro Visit and this has a vibe that is similar, however it is a little sweeter. It still has that woody blurriness about it that you get when you smell wood notes that drift into your smell-a-vision but its hard to focus on the individual wood notes. Wife likes it. Daughter likes it. You might say its a sport version of Visit? Its not nearly as dry as Visit but its from the same vein. Let me know if that’s a bell ringer for you. I keep finding over and over again that expensive is not necessarily better in the fragrance business. Puig is a master at the craft of economical scent value. I found this for $12 on Ebay. *Blank stare*
rpgame – :
A lovely fragrance, much more pleasing and sophisticated than the original Quorum which I find a bit too bitter and acrid. Quorum Silver is pretty straight forward with it’s dominance of a very rich cedar, nicely enhanced with a wonderful spicey mix of cinammon, ginger and nutmeg. There is a bit of soft lavender in the background. Quorum silver is not an overly formal scent, it’s not a in style unisex or fruity scent, it is a pleasant, sophisticated but not ovely elegant gragrance that makes for a nice stimulating frangrance that could fit many spheres of life. While not overtly sexy it does have a bit of that going on too. As a personal experiment I first sprayed a bit of Pour Un Homme Caron on to amp up the lavender with its stronger more natural fieldlike lavender, then applied the Quorum Silver over it. I found the experiment to be a very pleasant success. the blend received enthusiastic compliments. Emphasizing more lavender gave the Quorum more depth and for me made this cedar dominant fragrance even more enjoyable. However this incredibly inexpensive and easy to obtain fragrance is quite fine on its own.
de_la_vega144 – :
I received it today and I like it. It is a fairly modern and suitable from 25 years aroma. Smells elegant, anything athletic .
The cedar and ginger are , in my opinion , the predominant notes .
It is a right fragrance for any occasion and for office.
Yes, it is rather like Boss Soul but more spicy and fresh , less nocturnal and less sweet.
My overall rating is 8/10 .
Projection moderate , moderate duration .
бестик – :
This has very good reviews on here. After trying it at a perfume shop, however, I’m relieved I cancelled my order on Amazon. I understand the appeal- I really do! It is WOOD WOOD WOOD! Very masculine. And by masculine, I mean backwards camo cap and country western snap-up button shirts. As opposed to what other reviewers say about it, I did not think it smelled like a way more expensive cologne. No, it really does smell the way it costs. No one I talked to liked it. More importantly, I didn’t either. The bottle is also a little chintzy, but eh, I digress. I can appreciate its strength, however.
igor999m – :
Smooth, dry cedar wood & spicy, fresh ginger…
This is a very pleasing and very nice fragrance. It’s a cedar & guaiac wood surrounded by mandarin, pink pepper, grapefruit, lavender jasmine and amber (with hints of fresh ginger). Warm, smooth and spicy. It may be priced cheap, but it smells expensive. A great choice for men or anyone who wants to wear it. Spicy, woody, ambery musk. Not ground breaking but incredibly nice and sophisticated smelling. You can’t go wrong with it. Enough complexity to set it apart from most male-designed fragrances. A good choice which smells modern, sophisticated and not boring at all! Highly recommended from Puig!
dimanad75 – :
Great fragrance! At this price,(£12-60 for 100ml), it’s a good one to take away on holiday if you don’t want to risk your prized scents going through luggage handling. Worth the blind buy, and far better than some of the more expensive scents around. I’m pretty certain to be buying another bottle 🙂
reduna – :
@KoceFF: “Different people, different noses.” Agreed!
To be honest: I wouldn’t mind at all if my nose could pick up some of the spices that others are getting.
Flubber – :
@AmzaonGrace Difrent people diferent noses. When i first bought this i smelled the cedar for the first 20 minutes-then the spices-and then the cedar again. Now after allmost a month everything is cedar. Ok 98%. The longevity though it’s not so impresive. maybe it’s my skin. A friend has it also and it projects and lasts realy good.
Sazan – :
Spicy? I find it ironic that several reviews claim that this is spicy, especially since men tend to know spicy when they encounter it. Spicy is the original Quorum. Even the Aqua Quorum flanker is spicy–both scents of which my brother owns.
Probably the main reason this is the only Quorum I personally like on me is because it lacks (to my nose) the spices so prominent in the other two.
Also: this is an authentic cedar note that lasts from initial spray all throughout to the drydown. I decided to come over to the men’s department to look for a long-lasting wood note as I had no luck there with women’s (or unisex) fragrances.
Don’t let this put you off from trying the fragrance, as it’s a great bargain. I definitely think the spices are there only to subtly enhance the dry cedar/forest floor predominance.
Ps. Scent has no gender if you’re concerned about this being in any way “feminine.”
MishGan-013 – :
Very very woody opening.That is nice. It is a bit too spicy for warm summer days,maybe at night.
The first 10-15minutes it is great woody smell.
After that the spices kick in and I am not a big fan of that.
The last stage is were I can see the comparation with Azzaro Visit and that is quite well too.
Its a good smell but i think it would be much better if they tone down the spices a bit.
blackletocrew – :
This one is a pleasant surprise
Very woody with a bright and quite spicy opening
Dries down very nicely if not a little bit linear
There are shades at times of a Gucci Envy hint (a good thing) and the Woodsy stuff is very definite mainly being Cedar bound
I can sense pepper and maybe a touch of Patchouli but the general effect is a Cedar/Pencil Shavings kind of Woods effect with some Citrus adding a little brightness
This lasts a long time on my skin ie up to 6 hrs and projects well for maybe 3-4 hrs
At its price i cant recall many other fragrances i’ve tried which have this quality and a deep woodsy sillage
Well worth a try

OK, let me start with a word of advice if you’re planning on blind buying this stuff : I did it, because of the low Price. My first thought when trying it was “Wow, this smells exactly like something my older Brother would Wear in the early 1980’s!”. Cedar, cedar, cedar with herbal hints of ginger. I couldn’t stand it, way too oldschool, but forced myself to trying it several times and after five or six brawls I kinda got to like it. Very potent & powerful stuff, but actually I’ve grown quite fond of it, Works especially nice on warmer days. Great projection and sillage, very good value for Money on this. Just wondering, am I the only one that gets hints of basil in this ?

This smells almost like a spicy medicine to me, but in a good way. It is quite retro, but unlike most older fragrances it smells fresh and clear and doesn’t leave that generic honky smell (sorry I’m no expert on notes) that a lot of the older ones do.
I don’t think this one will make you more attractive to younger ladies, but it is one fragrance I like to go to in my collection when I want a warm and uplifting treat.

Thought I would buy without smelling this but that was a mistake. I based my purchase on the good reviews on here but this time I got burned. This fragrance smells
