Beautiful fragrance shelf life but once again the shelf life
Endurance burner, woman magnet, Pantydropper There is much which the code says, I must admit it already stands out from the other bestsellers. It is a very nice scent which has its justification in any case but unfortunately Armani has a very bad durability of approx. 4-5 hours as with the also very good smelling "He". Not particularly suitable for celebrating as the silage is not the best either. But what I have to admit is that you get some compliments. For dates therefore very well suitable with a nice meal if one does not want to be too intrusive. It's very popular with women, but men also asked what a great fragrance this is.

To the fragrance itself he starts beautifully citric with a slightly overblown sweet but not too sweet. It then becomes spicier in the course and sweeter the citric freshness is quickly vanished. A gentle woody note slowly creeps in and becomes more dominant over time, but the tonka bean never becomes too dominant. After about 2 hours I almost only smell a soft tonka bean with a nice hint of guaiac wood. As said with a better durability you could have made more out of it.
I am curious what Armani still has great in the portfolio then hopefully times with a better durability.

Cafe Latte with Vanilla
The scent reminds me lately of a delicious latte macchiato with vanilla flavour. But the coffee is a dark roast because it is slightly scratchy. But the vanilla is softer and lies a bit in the background.

The fragrance starts with me directly very strong with the coffee note very slightly I take the lavender was still and after a few minutes the delicate vanilla already penetrates. A very fine beautiful vanilla not sugar sweet or sticky or. It's not the finest fragrance compisition finder it comes across slightly synthetic but above average. But for people who love coffee scents should definitely test it or include it in their collection because it is priced in the lower price segment.
The durability of the perfume lies with me with approx. 4 hours, I find it portable the whole year round since it never gets sticky sweet and nobody gets on my nerves.
There's not much to say about the bottle very fancy looks almost like a plug.

I must honestly say I expected a lot more from him than gourmand fragrance because I love this kind of perfume but he takes a different direction. Still no bad buy just because of the great price.

True men don't wear pink
Joop Homme a classic among men's perfumes known by all social classes. Despite his age I smell him still very often, but rather at somewhat more mature men at the age of 50+. Often the perfume is then overdosed exorbitantly so that one can already develop an aversion to the fragrance. For a while I couldn't smell the scent at all, neither on myself nor on anyone else. The reactions of the ladies have never been particularly positive when I wore the pink Joop, often there were even dislikes against it.

The scent itself is very flowery, the prelude reminds me of my childhood cough syrup. It had a similar color and tasted very sweet raspberry cherry-like. That holds however only approx. one minute afterwards the flowers strike fully like a large bouquet of flowers in which I keep my nose pure. Pretty daring for a gentleman's scent, but he's still got something. Fits just perfectly in the Glam Rock time in which he came on the market. At the end the flowers retreat a little and he gets sweeter by the tonka bean and vanilla, whereby I still like the base the least.

I think you should definitely test it before you test the other flankers which are usually worse than the original.
If you want to be (real) men, you better wear something else. Conditionally recommended for dates because it often infects younger or older women. For party nevertheless to recommend there he brutal. long keeps with me loosely around the 10 hours. But please do not wear it at Ü50 parties because every second has to dodge then better on something else
