Description
Azzaro launches Wanted by Night in the spring of 2018 as a sensual, evening edition of the original Wanted created by Fabrice Pellegrin in 2016. The new perfume is inspired by the hedonistic lifestyle of Loris Azzaro during the 1970s.
“Azzaro Wanted by Night is the fragrance of a modern-day seducer. An extraordinary man. Elegant, bold, mysterious, he is surrounded by an air of confidence and power. Whether night or day, he attracts and arouses desire… For him, it’s an endless night; and for them, it’s a one-on-one moment that they will never forget…”
Azzaro Wanted by Night is announced as an explosive woody and spicy oriental of unabashed sensuality, a “blend of temptation and masculinity.” The composition mixes exotic woods and spices, and highlights the three main accords: cinnamon, red cedar and tobacco.
The face of the advertising campaign is model Nikolaï Danielsen. The cylindrical Azzaro Wanted bottle is transformed with chrome-plated cap with an elegant dark smoky lacquer, to contrast the amber fragrance within.
The fragrance is available as a 50 and 100 ml Eau de Parfum.
Wanted by Night was created by Michel Girard and Quentin Bisch.

If you are under the age of 16 maybe you will like it.
mediarost – :
I don’t get it. Smelling it right now. Maybe the most overrated fragrance of 2018.
It smells like the original. In the same vein as Armani Stronger with you or The One. Fruity generic. I don’t get the spice or incense.
Maybe I was given the wrong sample..
frecypype – :
The best warm perfume 2018 , it goes in the same direction of azzaro wanted + the one edp by dolce and gabana , but it has an excellent performance and it last 9 hrs + with 3 hours of projection , a blind buy for this winter
Shkodnik – :
Testing this again and as mentioned a couple of reviews lower down @Will Bagwell, the cumin note is quite apparent but only early on for me just after the rather nice bright orange opening. Perhaps as the weather has cooled down, last time I tested in warm weather and didn’t really notice the cumin before, however I either get used to it or it disappears when the green, woody, incense and to a lesser extent tobacco notes come into play.
I’m not sure how much I like the cumin note in fragrances (yet?) but I don’t find it overpowering at all here & this is still a decent and non-linear scent imo.
So ultimately it stays on my wish list and hopefully it’ll pop up soon at discounters.
Edit: In the dry-down a get a tiny hint of Azzaro Pour Homme Intense 2015 (could be the cinnamon) but imo that one is darker and more manly (mature? more than this one anyway), also perhaps more linear and less ‘crowd pleasing’ than Wanted by Night, also darn good though.
raimasha – :
After lots and lots of hype I got my nose on this and I didn’t like it. Now mind you I’m not fond of incense as a note especially a strong note but it smelt like you added incense, tobacco and cinnamon to Halston Man Amber if you removed the oud. Maybe I’m crazy here but that was what I smelt.
iliitch – :
I’m gonna keep it simple.
The bottle provides an excellent parallel to the scent of this juice. This thing goes hard!
Starts out citrusy (more orange than lemon) – then it takes on a pleasant fruit basket scent – the dry down expanded, unexpectedly into a ball of spice. Smells like some good Indian food..lol.
In my opinion, this is for active 35+ men. Probably a nice scent for a middle-aged man who rides motorcycles.
That damn “cumin” note….
Dimadzuri – :
pretty soon will be at discounters for same price at wanted- i can wait!
Nick1958 – :
finally got a chance to check this out, it’s good, it’s really good!
Wanted to me was just a mismatch of notes that could’ve been great if it were executed/blended a lil better but things just randomly stuck out and made it kind of a weird awkward scent to my nose so i didn’t really think it was that good.
Wanted by Night is just a effin pleasure to smell! The Cinnamon + Cedar + Tobacco is blended really decently and it’s just a nice warm scent that’s also got some fresh appeal to it making it a great cool weather scent but because it’s not overly dense it can be warn during the day with ease.
There is also something here that is kind of old school to my nose, like a 90s skin-a-max movie type of vibe going on; it’s a masculine old school seductive scent that is done very well.
This is just a great fragrance top to bottom and i see why ppl were giving it high marks!
I haven’t actually tested this really but i feel like this scent does something that many cool/cold weather scents just don’t even bother trying, making a ‘fresher’ style scent that has more versatility than just a evening fragrance.
scent to me is a solid 8/10 (maybe close to a 8.5) but if it projects and has longevity then I would say this is great value to anyones collection
Albert – :
Ok so this is my overall take on this EDP i wont make it too long.. Ive been constantly testing It and waiting to leave a review and i honestly feel like im ready to give my honest opinion… So dont be fooled with opening i was kind of skeptical about it too but just give it a few minutes and oohhh mannn.. U get the warm sexy mysterious vibe from the woodynotes blended with cinammon and tobacco and i could honestly say im not dissapointed i purchased this at retail price … U will fall in love with this fragrance and it Will become a part of you… It doesnt smell like anything else yea some people can compare it to other colognes out there but this here definitely has its own spot that cant be touched in the fragrance world… So i say go give it a try and if u like it just buy the dammn bottle w no regrets … And come one look at that bottle how can you not want that in your collection?!
alexandr_tretykov – :
The One EDP > Wanted By Night.
As a few mentioned not being happy with Azzaro, I was skeptical. I don’t like the opening of cinnamon/orange that creates a weird synth apple pie note, however this fragrance is enjoyable during the dry-down. It’s in the same vein as The One EDP, but without having to wait through that fruity opening.
You could use this as a clue fragrance, however I would still stick to fall/winter seasons, as this could go in the wrong direction for you with a hot summer wind. Worth a test!
goodvinsapr – :
比较像女香，不可否认闻起来不错，可能一部分人非常喜欢，另一部分则非常讨厌，很不安全，的一款香水，另外performances 非常给力
Just like woman fragrance, I don’t deny it smell good at least for me, but maybe some guy will extremely hate it. Very unsafe type. And performance is very very good
EnerGy – :
Wanted by Night has entered my wish list since it came out. I especially liked to discover how cinnamon was blended with cypress and lavender, and what the effect on my skin was.
It’s remarkable! I used up my sample quickly and litteraly love this fresh/warm spicy perfume on me, probably even more in a warmer climate because of its subtle summer allusion.
FoenVokymon – :
It’s a great take on the original, with much less one-dimensionality, and it unravels its secrets slowly. My issue is its performance, which is not a patch on the original. I expected it to be stronger, given the hyperbole of the marketing blurb. Another one for those cool autumnal evenings.
olegxxx777 – :
I like it, but I must say that I do not find it unique. I was hoping for a bit more umph and spice but instead I got a maturer version of Invictus. To my nose, this and Aura by Armaf, are EXTREMELY similar.
vladiah – :
The opening is so much closer to Man Uomo Zara for men. A little bit harsh opening in Zara. The two perfumes are different smelling after few minutes.
I dont like Man Uomo by Zara for men after the perfume settle down for few minutes. Azzaro Wanted by Night is likable throughout the duration.
pro100vlad – :
I had over 4000ml of juice, mostly perfumes, more than enough for the rest of my days. And overspraying too!
I walked into a fragrance section. Kind of telling myself I was above it all.
Then I notice a display with something new and somehow different looking.
Arevolver design, with dark amber juice and a name as sexy as Dirk Danger: Azzaro Wanted by Night.
Just the be able to dismiss it. I sprinted it on me.
And then it hit me,
“This is not nose garbage.”
No, no, no not more of my income….
It’s good.
Talk with a similarly struck young 20something.
It’s very good.
He buys the last bottle, a 50ml.
And I order a 100ml bottle.
For this to make sense, I need to wear 10ml of perfume each day and night.
And have co-workers and family members wear gad masks.
What can I do with all this juice?
How can I stop buying more juice.
Do not touch my juice.
Grrrrr….

I’m not sure what to think now. I bought it from Macy’s online since the stores don’t carry the 1.7 oz.
Nothing, nada. I don’t know if it was bad warehouse storage or what. Twenty to thirty minutes and it’s a skin scent. WTH? All I read said it is heavy.
I tried the tricks of non-frag skin lotion, and tried putting it over 25% IES. Three sprays per spot even.
Is it really that bad? I thought Eau de baux was low.
Sure not worth $70.
BTW, Macy’s was no help. Their CS sux anyway, but all I got was an upsell to the $90 one with credit for this. And an 80-mile trip to do it. Didn’t do it. I took the full refund itself.
It is now showing up on Feebay with one seller responding that her storage is all kept at 70-deg F. With a 3.4 oz. for $68, this is now a go. After all, the tester was great.
Korolev16061977 – :
I bought this in rome with a very good deal. I ve been searching for it for quite some time. Very original bottle with the bullet shape. As a fragrance it represents a man who is a seducer in my opinion and is ready for his conquests. It starts very fruity with its fruity notes along with the cinnamon and lavender. As time goes by it becomes more woody and also with the touch of tobacco with it. However it has a large note breakdown that makes it hard to smell them all. All in ll its a very very good fragrance with good sillage and also performs very well. Overall i ll give it an 8.5/10
pmy006Diobtetty – :
The reviews below me from @camposg and @lovetribe are all you need to know about this fragrance. But when you say something negative about a fragrance you get attacked by some folks that get their feelings hurt. Grow up people.
@TrephineArtist I see you started arguments with others at this forum as well that disagreed with you. Now you’re childish enough to start the tough guy name calling toward me. Here’s a quick tip, get a tissue, wipe the tears, and relax. And realize not everybody likes the same fragrances as you.
kyivstartsh – :
It’s weak. It’s been done before and just smells ok. It’s dark spicy and better than wanted
Крештак – :
Second review … unfortunately I have to change my mind … ok it’s a great perfume, better than its predecessor … but after having tried it well on the skin I have to say that it does not deserve my purchase … it’s a fragrance similar to the various one million, invictus etc … has the same vibrations except a very pleasant citrus opening. the performances are excellent. I repeat it is a great fragrance … but it would be too much in my collection.7 / 10
nidala – :
@richmilton whatever you say tough guy. But you were calling other people out and suggested they were not honest with their opinions on the frag just because they liked it and you didn’t, as if they’d been planted by Azzaro or something! But I see you deleted that.
Frankly I couldn’t care less whether you like the frag or not that wasn’t the problem and you know it.
And you cared enough to reply otherwise you’d have kept your fingers off the keyboard.
Hoipaphiddisp – :
AWBN is in the same vein as other spicy/woodsy/sweet frags like Armani Code Profumo, One Million Prive, and Spicebomb Extreme. I wouldn’t say it smells anything like those scents, but it envokes the same seductive and cozy feelings. As with those other ones listed, the scent lends itself more to the Fall, but I feel this one could be worn any time of day and during any season depending on the number of sprays. For example, if you attended a bonfire party on a summer night, this would work nicely.
At the top, I get a boozy blast that is very zesty and also spicy. That cinnamon note is not hot but it is prominent throughout. The top is juicy, which I feel gives it this playful vibe, just like the original. The tobacco herbal sweetness is deep and masculine. It dries down to a spicy woody scent. Barely notice any cumin at all and the green notes are mostly subdued to my nose.
Good longevity and sillage for a designer.
I could see this as a clubbing scent, but despite the playfulness, the dry down is far more complex and interesting than you would initially think. It could be great for date night, a fun night out with friends, or even daytime festivals and late summer BBQs. I would not wear this to the office or any occasion where you need to be taken seriously, but that isn’t necessarily a knock against it.
All and all I am very pleased with this one. Highly recommended you not only get your nose on this one but to wear it on the skin for a bit to get a feel for the dry down and the scent trail. Also, the bottle looks awesome on the shelf.
It is unique enough to warrant a full bottle. I give it an 8.5/10.
Meqap957intitytek – :
I had the opportunity to sniff this at the beauty store and to sample it on my hand for the entire day! Opens up very much like the original Wanted and after few minutes goes in completely different direction! This one is very well blended and an absolute banger with it’s longevity! I have washed my self several times in the sea water today and I can still smell it on my hand!
valera700 – :
SO much better than the original…spicy, more complex…would be great for the fall
дима2110 – :
Tested on paper…very good impression…better that wanted original flanker.very good mix of notes. This is my first impression.one of my Next purchase.
totxan – :
@ richmilton
Opinions are like noses everyone has one. People can get different things from the same scent as I’m sure you’re aware.
I don’t take any review as gospel but it’s also interesting to read other peoples interpretations without s****** on them if they don’t match my own.
kovu426 – :
Wanted by night is the first fragrance I tried by Azzaro…I saw “New” at Dillards so I tested and OMG .. I love it . Now is part of my collection!!!! Sexy, woody, spicy and a bit sweet. Perfect for a date or a night out.
Long lasting longevity and moderate-strong sillage!!
effingete – :
Tested only: I wasn’t keen on this at first but I think if I invested in a bottle it would be a ‘grower’ scent that I could come to appreciate.
I think this could appeal not only to fans of the original and PR Invictus (and it’s flankers) but also to others looking for a very strong performing ‘night out’ type of fragrance that is a tad more ‘grown up’ than those mentioned.
This is fruity sweet & spicy but has a darkness to it, I didn’t really pick out tobacco but there’s a lot going on here, maybe it adds that depth along with the incense and cypress.
Excellent sillage and longevity on my skin. I will definitely test this one again.
Odinn – :
As usual the comparisons on here are misleading
How on earth anyone can;
1. Find this similar to Mancera Red Tobacco
2. Not find this similar to the original
Is beyond me.
It’s a deeper, darker, denser and more refined/mature version of the original but still suitable for a wide age gap as it isn’t offensively loud, but it has no problem being noticeable
леф – :
This is the best from Wanted line and one of the best Azzaro scents. Youtful, vivid, playful suitable for evenings mainly, having fun with friends or clubbing.
I get a sweet, fresh-spicy, bubblegumy ambroxan with very good projection and sillage. Feels very youthfull, it could be a perfect scent for teens imo. Other noticeable notes are cinnamon, mandarin, cypress, iso E super, faint lemon/woody notes and patchouli.
fakaniger – :
you guys are funny. wanted is decent and yea maybe more youth oriented but women love it. Wanted by night is more mature and darker and just as nice but more for older gents maybe so they wont like wanted much i guess.Both are solid and so different its worth having both for sure.
To me its a totally diff scent then wanted 75% or so.
alevtines – :
I agree with (Houdini4). I am one of those who HATED Azzaro Wanted yet found myself loving the new Wanted by Night. To me these 2 fragrance don’t smell alike.Wanted (original) = Synthetic Lemony Bubblegum: cloyingly sweet and smell very LOW CLASS. It a cheap money-grab copying PB Invictus. Like a cheap hooker grabbing your hands & won’t let you go. Wanted-by-Night = High Class Well-Blended Niche Quality of a Cinnamon / Cumin beast. This is a cologne for the uber confident men (Badboy, Player, Unscrupulous sales people, or Trump). It has a NICHE quality, Beastly performance & projection. ,The sweetness here is tone-down with a Masculine Maturity. There is a mysterious darkness to this fragrance that give a sexy vibe.
However, this is NOT a fragrance for everyday people. I would say 85% of the guys can’t carry this manly beast (me included). While I ♥ the fragrance, it too Spicy, too Sexy, too Strong, too Attention-Grabbing that I’m not comfortable with. 1 spray lasted 7-8 hours, 2 spray for events, 3 spray for clubbing, but 4 spray will choke people out, 6~8 spray becomes a weapon of mass destruction 😉 The name WANTED really fits the vibe of this fragrance.
state-808 – :
Being the snob I am and unfortunately can’t help being, coupled with the fact I loathed the messy original Wanted, yesterday when a sales assistant said we’ve got a new Wanted from Azzaro, I feel I might’ve rolled my eyes a little bit. However, upon trying it I said ‘well it’s better than the original.’ That was just the opening a sharp orange note, spiced warm bubblegum and tobacco actually sounds a bit hellish but in practice was pretty cohesive and well executed for a throwaway flanker if ever I saw one. This fragrance has about as much subtle nuance as a sledgehammer entirely comprised of bottles of Joop, but still having worn a sample now I can’t hate it. It doesn’t even go quite full oriental and still managed to maintain some of that generic accord you get nowadays in order to keep the punters spending, but hey Wanted by night is passable. In fact I quite liked it…but don’t tell anyone.
anar_selef – :
Spicy bubblegum with a unique orange note. Tobacco in the subtle dark vibe. Familiar but different. I like it.
GREMLINPINSK – :
This is what a flanker should be like!
It does resemble the original and it has the Azzaro metallic DNA along with some sweet and fruity nuances but there’s more character to this one.
To my nose, it’s really well blended and aromatic-spicy while still being playful and modern. Honestly, if La nuit and Eros had a baby, this would be it.
I’d chose this one for a night out over both of those. Didn’t test the longevity and projection yet, but if it performs just as good as the original Wanted, that’s enough for me.
For a night out/date/autumn/winter… 9/10. Would pass on wearing it at school/work or high heat; might choke some people out.
kilers119 – :
Whereas the original Wanted is to my nose a sweet citrus, tonka bean and invictus-like “marine notes” odd mixture , this new flanker is a sophisticated blend of cinnamon and dry tobacco, with a bit of patchouli and kind of a woody backbone, it’s not that sweet and it’s even a bit mature, maybe because of that green note I smell in it. (Vetiver? Cypress?)
I smelled it the first time on someone and I directly asked him what he as wearing, I was almost schoked when he told me that was an Azzaro fragrance, and even more schoked when he told me that was a Wanted flanker! I guess it will be perfect for fall and winter.
One of the best releases this year, well done Azzaro.
yura57 – :
I tried out a few sprays on my inner wrist from a tester bottle at The Fragrance Shop in Liverpool UK. First impressions? BIG! Strong as hell and also very good.
It retains the backbone of the original scent but the sharp, acidic, citric and green apple aspect has been replaced with a softer edged and warmer orange fruit note. There is an assortment of sweetish fruity smells going on in here with spices, a moist tobacco and a heavy hit of resinous woods and some incense.
That’s what I get after one small try and I can’t wait to give it a proper wearing.
It’s very, very nice and goes straight on my list of wants.
abricos96 – :
This has some Van Cleef & Arpels Tsar vibe in my opinion.
I fell in love with it, I am a woman and it has been a while I had found a male scent sexy !
I am gifting it to my husband so I can get my every day « sniff » dose :))
cerg1410 – :
Cinnamon/tobacoo/spice/fruit this is a good one.. Well blended, non synthetic, lasts a long time. Unfortunately it’s july and I think this is gonna be a killer fall/winter smell!
igoryan87 – :
A bubblegum designer fragrance trying to smell like a Roja Dove. I recommend it to beginners on a budget, but no real niche head will get much use out of it. Retains too much of the chemical and bubblegum smells of the original. At least that’s what it seems like smelling it up close. This is one of those scents that really needs to be smelled on someone else for you to be able to judge is accurately
lqt077JeomiWogkig – :
Just tried a sample. I certainly don’t get any cinnamon or tobacco from this, wouldn’t classify this as a woody scent, either. First impresison is overwhelmingly sweet without being very fruity. Turns into a somewhat dull powdery scent after a while and doesn’t offer very much complexity at all.
martyn1900 – :
Freshly sprayed, this reminds me of a childhood candy which certainly did not contain tobacco or woods lol. I like sweet and darker perfumes; By Night’s opening has something like candied fruit…it’s probably the orange and cinnamon. The notable aromatic woods and tobacco really thrive the middle and late stages. It was generously gifted to me, and to my delight it’s very enjoyable from the opening to the late dry-drown! Lasts at least 6-8hrs on skin for me, projects at least moderate-to-heavy. I find this lovely EDP’s dry-down as satisfying as many “niche” perfumes I’ve sampled/owned straight up…Trust me, I love finding excuses to spend too much money on pricier fragrances! This is definitely worth checking out, wear it on skin and clothes and see if you dig the way it develops.
Fruity-Sweet Cinnamon
Mellow Tobacco
Aromatic Woods
Nadezhda – :
Got 2 samples at Macy’s last week. I think I like this but the jury is still out. When I walk outside into the warm air I catch whiffs that are completely different than how it smells out of the bottle or on the skin.
I love the bottle and couldn’t make Wanted work for me, so I am giving this one a fair shot, but I like it so far.

*************************************************************2018 Club Banger: drawn out JPG UltraMale
*************************************************************
I just came back from Macy with a 1-singel-spray on my left arm, and it drawn out 2 sprays of (JPG UltraMale) on my right arm, and completely erased 4 spray of (MontBlanc Legend Night) on my left wrist. I thought the original Azzaro Wanted was strong, the new Wanted-by-Night is Nuclear!
**************************************************
Cumin is really Strong & overbearing for me
**************************************************
This cologne Scream SEX + Scream Attention + Demands Confidence. This is a I-want-to-get-FUCK tonight fragrance without any pretense. I highly Respect this fragrance for its Beastly projection + attention grabbing ability. However, keep in mind it’s:
– highly inappropriate for office or work
– highly inappropriate for business gala or special events
– highly inappropriate for Summer or Daylight
– more powerful than women’s perfume
– more projection than a deadly napalm
– can be highly offensive in family dinner
– can be repulse some women (due to overly strong cumin)
+ can also be SEXY to the right women 😉
This is the Gangster Fragrance. I feel like I should be rocking a Wife-beater-Tank-Top with a manly Leather Jacket, finished up with a shining Gold Chain with a pair of douchy sunglasses. This is a highly Masculine (Bad Boy) fragrance. Not for any suit & ties financial guys.
muRdoc – :
At first Azzaro Wanted was created, and now this second copy cat. Both are clones from the Superior Paco Rabanne. Wanted EDT smells very similar to Invictus EDT. Now this one smells almost identical to Invictus Intense. From the opening to the Drydown. A big pass for me.
securityua – :
I was with my fg when we walked up to the Macy’s counter to check this out. I’d gried it before and wasn’t sure, thinking it’s too much like the original. Sprayed on my arm and she smelled it. Her reaction was a bit unlike her….’i’ll f*ck you when we get home”….given the advertising for it, maybe that’s just what Azzaro would want. And now for the real review. This fragrance does share a lot in common with the original. If it didn’t we’d be killing it for being too different, although many are bitching that it smells like the original so go figure!! It is more polished and definitely feels a bit more grown up without letting go of the playful nature of the first one. Luckily, cumin isn’t here to give you that unbearable dirty man vibe. Instead it gives you mild animalic sensual character that makes it feel, welll, grown up. It’s a MAN’s fragrance, although I don’t know if you want this to be a douche bag fragrance like the adverts would suggest. The name suggests night time wear, but this thing doesn’t scream at you like say Eros, so to my nose it might do well on daytime wear for a casual setting. Not sure I’d want this at work…you might annoy the other men who’ probably think you’re trying to seduce the ladies, or just hate you that they smell like D&G The one (the original overplayed one). I hate that you can only get this at Macy’s as I dread that f’n store. But anyway, it’s a great release, one that no doubt will do well. Sample if you can. If you own the original this might not feel too different to you. But If you are new to Azzaro, this is a great way to get in. Get your nose on it and don’t rely so much on all the negative vibes you see in writing. If at all possible, spray and let it sit on skin for a while. Paper is never a good way to judge anyway. Enjoy!!
mnbvcxz – :
Smells even better than the original Wanted by Azzaro. I think this is a Day/Night version theme going on here and I honestly love both. If I had them I would wear them and wear them frequently.
film-lal – :
This fragrance definitely smells very similar to the original Azzaro wanted, but smoother more refined and sort of boozy.
Performance:
Projection-
Unfortunately this does not project as long on me, as the original Azzaro wanted despite being an Eau de Parfum. In fact it’s almost more hidden and despite spraying myself several times, it seemed to disappear rather quickly becoming a skin scent. I’d say this lasted on me 2hrs then quickly becoming a skin scent if not even sooner.
Rating 5/10
Longetivity-
This fragrance performs decently and lingers around for quite awhile. For me personally it lasted 5hrs.
Rating 7/10
Versatility-
This fragrance stays true to its name with being more of a night fragrance. I can see it being used during the day because of it smelling similar to it’s original inspiration. This is a very casual scent, but the boozy accord slightly makes it elegant. As for seasons I would say it can be used all seasons depending on how much you spray. Seasons it would thrive more on would be fall, spring and summer.
Rating 8/10
Uniqueness –
This isn’t a very unique fragrance due to smelling very similar to the original Azzaro wanted, almost like if you mixed Azzaro wanted with a little bit of Dolce & Gabbana The One.
Rating 4/10
Overall-
This fragrance is pleasant and a potential compliment magnet. For fragrance enthusiasts it’s nothing extremely ground breaking. Performance is an issue and should be considered as it can very from person to person. If you like the original Azzaro wanted and wanted a darker version this will be it. It is definitely smoother and in my opinion better than the original. However the performance and something in it that gives me headaches kept this from being a very big win for me.
Overall Rating 7/10
appossese – :
More subdued/less in your face than the original without lacking any beast mode performance. This also has a subtle spicy undertone.
I did not like the original but this one is an improvement and I believe will garner lots of compliments.
vestatania – :
I was just in a Macy’s here in San Diego and saw this while walking by the counter. It is a lot better than I was expecting I have to say, partially because I am not very familiar with much if any of the Azzaro line. All in all it is a very nice smell, I would say it is a touch “generic” cause it does remind me of a lot of the common name brand scents in dept. Stores. This could have something to do with the mix itself or maybe using more synthetic ingredients but since I really began delving into fragrances a couple years ago, I started with a lot of the niche and high end lines looking mainly for longevity and quality distinction, so my opinion might be a bit skewed.
With that being said, I sprayed one spray on my forearm about 2 hours ago now and even as I am holding my phone typing this, I am getting some very nice wafts flowing up. To me it smells like a very soft, and a slightly less sweet or powdery version of Versace Eros. So far it also smells like it should last a good 3-5 hours but I will try to provide an update later. I am not good enough at picking apart individual notes yet, but I would say that this does smell like a very well blended scent of light and not spicy cinnamon,a very mild red cedar, and just a touch of unburnt tobacco. Not smokey at all to my nose, hence the easy to wear and work for almost anybody generic quality. Not necessarily a bad thing at all, just depends on your expectations and of course your reason for reading all these reviews and enjoying fragrantica in the first place. All in all it is better than I expected and is definitely a good fragrance, that I can’t imagine any non Frag lovers would dislike for any reason…
Hope it helps ! And Thanks for reading…
Dima13 – :
My expectations are just about as low as they could get, so let’s hope this is able to at least exceed them

If your biggest problem is the name of a fragrance then you seriously need to reconsider and analyse your priorities

So from the advert, we are lead to believe that the perfume will last the whole night and even into the day. Let’s just hope it goes past 4 hours.

I’m a big fan of the original Wanted so I’ll definitely be looking into this one, though they don’t seem to share many notes.
Also, did anyone else notice that the juice color is similar to that of Azzaro Pour Homme/APH Intense? Nice touch there! It looks gorgeous against the dark silver bottle.
