I agree with sebbydee. This smells very similar to Zino. I am not getting much citrus at all. It is not listed but I am getting some tobacco also.
If you like fragrances like Zino davidoff, I encourage you to give this a go. $9.99 for 100ml in Australia. You can’t go wrong.

i had to buy this today. I have never smelled a better fragrance for 9 euros. Im not usually a fan of lemon, but for this price you can’t go wrong. Give the synthetic lemon opening a good 10 minutes to calm down. Believe me this fragrance is a lot better after the initial half an hour.I recommend.

It costed me less than 9 Euros.
Smells like an expensive designer frag.
Does not smell sinthetic or cheap.
I do get some vibes of Azzaro pour Homme and YSL Kouros.
Strong Citrus opening followed by strong Vetiver and Oakmoss.
Average longevity.
Nice presentation, good sprayer.
Overall rate of 8,00/10.00
Recomended.
With this price just blind buy it,

Bought this one when on holidays in France at a local Carrefour (Supermarket) …Good everyday scent…semi-fresh citrusy…very cheap…but definitely lacks a bit of longevity, except when sprayed directly on your shirt…
7/10

This is way better than it has any right to be and to my nose smells a lot like Caron’s L’Anarchiste, with its citrus and minty notes. But it costs about a tenth of the price. Will definitely be exploring more of this brand in the future.

this fragrance just doesnt want to leave. Lasts around 12 hours on my skin, i don’t know how you say that it doesn’t last

The first couple of minutes of UDV for men reminds me both of azzaro pour homme and zino. Harsh, citrusy. As it toned down (quiet quickly on my skin) i get mostly lemon and patchouly. Not over masculine as some has mentionned… glad i got it but the longevity is an issue here, 4 hours and it s gone. Not a big deal regarding the price. Ok’ish if you re on budget

Woody and fresh, very nice. Not childish or cheap smelling by any means. For under $15, this is an absolute steal. If blind buys are your thing, this one should be on your list.

OK. let’s see…How about a total paradox in modern perfumery’s logic, living mostly in supermarkets and hiding (or is it lurking?) in their lower shelves.
Although it came out in 1993, its one of the most ’80s fragrances out there. Perhaps 1993 was too close to the ’80s to leave their influence out of the picture.
Compared with the watered-down versions of the ’80s classics, it totally stands out, being in a league of its own.
Nothing sweet or dainty about it, just acrid citruses, bitter woods and tangy herbs, all mixed up in bucket-loads of excavated soil. If you wanna smell like a landslip, or like a lumberjack roaming the log-made bars in his vicinity during his day off, look no further. Whether these bars are in Alaska or Siberia doesn’t really matter. Since he stands amongst the ones who built them, he’ll always be welcome to every single one of of them.
Bought for pocket change, it coped extremely well with a little trick I played and managed to convince people that it’s an outrageously priced and very hard to find niche creation. Yes, I know I should be ashamed about that, but I never let a chance to bash the occasionally arrogant niche foofaraw slip by unused. After all Ulric de Varens does sound like something that costs a gold sovereign per bottle, and the UDV acronym sounds hi-tech enough to support my scenario and worth my imaginary price.
It also kinda proves my theory that since there must be some sort of rock bottom in how cheap their ingredients may come, cheap scents are less likely to be reformulated over the years. So in some cases, there’s a good chance that cheap fragrances smell way better than the current versions of pricy designer fragrances which have become the ghosts of their former selves.
It’s strange, unexpected, behind the times and way more Azzaro pour Homme than Azzaro pour Homme. In other words, a true real deal.
So yes a total paradox, but by no means a fallacy. Fallacies are the privilege of fragrances tenfold its price, when they try to convince us that their reformulations were inevitable, due to whatever lame arguments they may come up with. Ulric de Varens doesn’t seem to believe them. And neither do I…

The first impression is citrus, filled with lemons and tangerines, shades of dried sage, tarragon, anise, soon becomes very evident, into transition in the top notes for the heart notes, giving the sequence also refreshing floral notes of fresh mimosa, orange blossom, geranium and transparent jasmine, on the base notes with the sovereignty presence of the oakmoss, the charm of tobacco, and majesty of noble woods such as vetiver, patchouli, sandalwood and cedar refreshed by the unmistakable musk.
I’d say would be a version of Lapidus pour homme more refreshing, musky, smoking and dry.
The Classic Ulric de Varens Udv pour homme is potentially balsamic, and its aroma is like the Chanel Allure pour homme, in his tobacco references.
Legitimate woody balsamic.

I can affirm, with tranquillity, that this cologne is one of the best colognes, considered as second line, I have worn in my entire life. I experienced my first bottle about 10 years ago and since this time I always have one at home.
This is a scent that is extremely strong, conservative and that gives a very intense sense of confidence. I barely feel the citrus notes of lemon and Mandarin orange in the output. I feel only a very cool dose of mint which blends, rapidly, with the galbanum and a few more flowers. I also feel Violet and I’m sure there’s jasmine in the composition. His base is drier, with wood notes, oakmoss and a dose of vetiver.
It exhales a lot and lasts, easily, for about 12 hours on the skin.
If I had to try to describe, quickly, what other cologne it recalls, I’d say none specifically. But I would risk saying it is almost a mixture of Kouros with a touch of Azzaro.
Were you scared?
