The scent is great. It starts sweet, like citrus or something, and then finishes woody and masculine. I think there's a bit of patchouli, cypress or maybe sandalwood in there.
Anyways, I will save you a lot of time trying to describe this scent and just tell you straight up what it is. This is Drakkar Noir. Very similar scent. That popular 80s colonge is back in John Varvatos packaging. So if you know that scent and hated it, then you won't like this. But if you thought it smelled good at the time, then this is a modern version. I haven't smelled that stuff in like 20 years, but this instantly reminded me of it and you can't forget what it smelled like.
This is my current scent of choice, despite the cheesy association to the now discount bin scent of Drakkar Noir that it gives me. I picked up the aftershave, bodywash, and deodorant because I liked the scent so much. (Don't bother with the bodywash or the deodorant, they are terrible products and overpriced.)
