A good aquatic fragrance but overpriced
It's a good aquatic fragrance with the water-citrus opening, floral notes at its heart and a woody background with a little pepper.
It is less fresh and more floral than the EDT. The EDT is clearly a summer fragrance. This one is more all-seasons and office friendly. As an EDP, it has an excellent longevity and is quite linear.
But, even taking into account these qualities and a beautiful bottle with a magnetic cap, I think it's overpriced. (Maybe too much advertising)
If you want an aquatic fragrance, try it because it's a true reference but I think there are other aquatic fragrances which give the same for less.

A good summer fragrance
This is a simple, light and elegant fragrance designed for the summer period.
2 notes are dominant : vetiver and lime. The other notes (grass, mint, rum, geranium) are individually much less noticeable but together give a "natural" freshness to this EDT. It has strong masculinity.
On my skin, sillage is relatively soft. Longevity is good.
A good summer fragrance different from Acqua di Gio and the 100 other similar aquatic fragrances.

Could be great...
Rated only 70 %. It smells very good, mainly iris-neroli-vetiver. It's based on an original concept "an iris fragrance for men" or, more realistically, unisexe. But its longevity and sillage are below average. It remains an interesting idea but the result is a bit disappointing. Maybe 100 % for a future version ?
Very good EDT for men with a rose note.
Very good EDT around Rose, Tonka and Ginger. To me these three notes are prominent : Ginger and Rose dominate at first, then it's a mix of Rose, Tonka and Woods.
In comparison with the original Burberry Brit, this one is reinforced in fruity notes (ginger and orange). To me it's better than the original for any season.
Sillage can be soft to relatively heavy depending on how much you apply. For an EDT, its longevity is really good.
Its background of Rose and Tonka is charming.

A classy fragrance for special events
This fragrance smells wonderfully to me and to many people but not to everybody. It is not an all-rounder that will please everybody.
Nevertheless, it's a very good fragrance with a citrus opening (more verbena than lemon), then a mix of floral and woody notes, with a touch of incense and benzoin in the background.
Sillage and longevity are good with the EDT and excellent with the EDP.
I think the incense and benzoin notes explain why some people don't like it, but it's part of its DNA. It's a wonderful fragrance for a dinner in the evening.
