Item Description
I picked up a sample of this Edt the other day and I'm thinking of buying a bottle. My wife thinks Vera Wang is extremely cool so I was intrigued when I saw that she had a mens fragrance. I was very much attracted to the bottle, sleek, minimalist, nice lines. I like the amber color of the cologne as well. It will look good sitting on my armoire.
This is the official marketing description of the scent:
"This passionate fragrance starts off with top notes of fresh green mandarin leaf and crisp yuzu zest. Warm and sensual nutmeg, leather and anise create depth, and a warm blend of sandalwood and tobacco finishes off this refined and unforgettable scent."
I am horrible at detecting these individual smells, but I did sense a bit of oriental citrus in the top notes and a nice woodsy smell at the bottom end, not terribly complex, but a very warm masuline smell , refined and understated. It is a very subtle fragrance with not a lot of staying power. I put on a nice bit of it and by afternoon it had faded. I actually like a subtleness of the scent however. I don't think fragrances should "turn heads". Its an up close and personal thing. Anyway, I digress. Its a great Edt and I will buy it. Its about $40 to $50 for 3oz, a bit on the pricey side, but I think worth it.
