This has been done before, its not complicated or unique. But it is extremely pleasant to smell, especially over a prolonged period of time. Woodsy and green, with enough little spiced and floral notes peeking out to say hi that it stays interesting. It really does give off a cool Calvin Klein vibe. I would very much enjoy smelling X-Centric wafting off any man’s skin.

Wow, cool scent…kind of literally. A cool woody scent is how I would describe this at the top level. It settles to a sweet woody base as well (generally pretty linear as I find most dunhills).
This is probably my 8th Dunhill fragrance, and due to the bottle and scent, I would keep it. It projects for the first
In comparison to others in the market, I would set down a maturity spectrum (in terms of fragrance and personality and starting Versace Blue Jeans to Burberry for Men, and then take it to D&G The One. X-Centric falls in between; woody-sweet (a la cypress-tobacco) with sage to cool it down and green it out so that it’s a little more casual than Burberry for men (I prefer X-centric over all of these).
Good value at a discount price.

Sort of like a lighter but more complex Sauvage. It’s not my cup of tea but if you can handle the “synthetic” qualities you might really enjoy this one. I would not wear it if I was mostly going to sit around, because that seems to generate the strongest perceptions of a scent being synthetic or “chemical.”

Owned it yrs ago/liked it…got a refill…and like it again…but it now reminds me lots of Obsession Summer for Men. They apparently both share cedar and sage so that explains that! lol. This has more character. Neither the CK scent or this have any longevity though. 🙁

My First Fragrances which can so impressed me, i love it so much. Very masculine but so simple. Its so similliar with Dunhill Desire Blue Man. Summer fragrances.
9/10

This cologne deserves more love and is actually underrated. Spice, and more spice with a bit of freshness. If they made Burberry London fresh, or lighter, this is what you would get. Love Burberry London but its opening is so powerful, almost syrupy that it is reserved for only the coldest weather. Xcentric is lighter, more versatile and addictive, I wear this one day that turns into a week straight.
I love wearing this in the fall, whether it is chilly or an Indian Summer day, this works. It is linear, longevity could be better but to me it is fantastic, one of my favorites, and a bargain as it is easily found heavily discounted online. If you like spice but do not want it administered with a heavy hand, get a bottle of xcentric and enjoy!

When wood go fresh and young…
This is an general very nice perfume for the younger audience let’s say maybe in the 20s and 30s. So let’s say that you are not generally into the wood scents and you might want something a bit more fresh a bit more citrusy then this is the one to go for.
So what do I get out of this fragrance?
I do not recognise so much the cypress in this one, but I do note the cardamom and citrus and of course also some undefined wood notes. If you think that Drakkar noir is for old men and you are lets say in the 20s or 30s you will definitely like this fragrance.
Unfortunately for me I overall liked this fragrance but it doesn’t stick out from other great scents so this is not a fragrance that I will include in my collection.
Overall 6/10

This fragrance is the most amazing fragrance ever, honestly when i smell this i get hard, it turns me on, im not even joking, and women love it, like alot, because who wouldnt, its just amazing, like full on its so good, i wish i didnt run out of my bottle 🙁
Yarunka – :
I remember having this fragrance before the year of 2000, I don’t think this is 2001 product. I’m sure it’s in late 90’s. In my opinion, it isn’t bad but compared to Dunhill edition, this is nothing.
spam.ua – :
This cologne is good for summer seasons. This cologne is suitable with suit & even T-shirt.
tbu313speagoessenda – :
I used to have this frag. I thought the smell was awesome and I would have “loved” it…BUT…It had a staying power of less than 30 minutes on my skin. Because of that I would have disliked it if I didn’t love the smell. Nevertheless, when it ran out I didn’t buy another bottle.
iek901speagoessenda – :
I had this perfume long time ago. It was not my type. I could’n t tell you which is similar. Very singular smell.
igorinbox – :
this is my favorite dunhill x centric!
dunhill stops production xcentric!
in belgium is not sale enymore!
what perfume is the same smell of dunhill x centric?
ryvaizer – :
one of the few fragrances in which i can understand why they discontinued it. Despite the name, its actlly pretty ordinary. ur usual everyday fresh scent for the average joe who doesnt know much about frags. just ok
demaTeams37 – :
When I first smelled this fragrance in the store I bought it without hesitation. That was a very bad move because this one has no staying power at all–in about two hours I never even knew I sprayed it on at all, even smelling the exact spot I sprayed. Due to this, I don’t recommend buying it.
Melwm076Diobtetty – :
I agree there is nothing special with this fragrance, if you like green notes, this one may be good for you especially the cypress note, longevity is good, the bottle is nice. Try Perry Ellis for a less expensive, similar fragrance.
Aleksandr_898 – :
The scent’s name is misleading, and that’s probably the only thing worth mentioning about it.
How some guys of you manage to identify something “unique” about it remains a mystery to me. Definitley not suitable for eccentrics, rather for the average man working in an average company looking just alright, aged 40.

This is my new standard “everyday” fragrance. While there are others that are excellent for specific occasions, this Dunhill X-Centric offers up an extremely versatile frag that feels as comfortable in a suit as in jeans and a camp-shirt.
The opening is quite unique, actually. A little bit aquatic, but spiked with a warm peppery note. It dries down musky-woody, but not in the same way that every other drugstore frag does. X-Centric maintains is character, It stays more dry than sweet.
Stefan has mentioned that X-Centric smells a lot like Bond No.9 Riverside. There are certainly similarities, especially in the drydown. But Riverside has a more citrus opening and is sweeter overall. I purchased a sample of both to compare, and must say I prefer X-Centric. It’s just a more distinctive scent.
The bottle is very attractive, with it’s flip-down cap. But the atomizer itself is not very good. It tends to squirt kind of weakly instead of giving a good dispersion. This is not too much of an issue for me as I decant most of my regular frags into a 5mL sprayer and just use that.

Intense at first minutes, woody-spicy-fresh with some ambar tourch, many memories with this dunhill, but not in my present to wear it.
longevity and sillage are powerful..
Karch13 – :
after smelling riverside dr by bond 9, these 2 have much more in common
lvovka – :
I liked it ver much. It is in the same mood of CKs Eternity Summer for men 2005. I bought one bottle back in 2002 but never had the chance to get a new one after that. I surely recommend it though.
avtoritet120 – :
woody-spicy;
intensive, sensual, warm, manly;
for men with a sense of individuality and inner strength;
The bottle was created by Franzrudolf Lehnert.

This scent is very good for the Brazilian weather. The green leaves make this cologne very fresh and comfortable to be worn. I have the impression that I have just finished to take a shower. However, it is strong and lasts for hours.
Good choice for meetings and casual encounters.
verdenvikt – :
One of my favourite scents for men. One you want to stay close and just breath deep for hours without becaming tired. it gives a sensation of freshness. As others have said its unique, very original to be used by a men of personality, by a trend setter and not a trend follower
Marshalko7 – :
Intensive, with powerful cypress, very masculine, but simple. I think, in American style.
