Moustache

I had to go back and leave another review for this having revisited after a long long wander through many fragrances, including many niche. Having found this early when i first got into fragrances, maybe 7 odd years ago, I loved it. I always rated it in the top 1 or 2 cheapies. Baldessarini Ultimate was another that i rated highly... Over the years I've gone further and further down the rabbit hole... Having finished my first 75ml bottle I popped the top on my new 125ml... this in itself tells its own story as to get through 75ml of it considering my growing collection is impressive... I must admit this still doesn't disappoint, if anything you learn to appreciate it even more... the pink pepper, the standing out from the blue brigade, the spiced vanilla and topping of with the patchouli in the base.... An absolute treat... This not only competes with niche but it puts a lot of them to shame.... A+

I just cant believe how wonderful this fragrance is at times. Every time I wear I am always impressed by it considering its price point. Ill say more on that later. This bad boy starts off with a bit of mandarin off the top. There is a good deal of spiciness early on that stays throughout its lifespan although it mellows out. The best way to describe this one is its a spicy, rosy, earthy vanilla scent that is just so damn sexy and sophisticated. I love wearing this to work in cooler weather because I know its going cut through the cold and still last all freaking day. You can try to wear this casually but if you though you will most likely throw on a better shirt because this fragrance demands that sort of respect. I will always have this in my collection. Rochas Moustache EDP is in my Mount Rushmore of inexpensive fragrances as my winter hallmark.

I have owned it for a year now and bought another one now. And I mainly used it last year during nightouts, dinners and networking events during in London. And every single lady next to me kept on complementing how I smell so good. Not to exaggerate, I have had more than 10 compliments every time I wore it. The smell is really nice, Benzoin - Rose - Patchouli together can feel like a burnt smell but it is beautifully complimented by the dark smell of Orange, and kick from the pepper, the vanilla is very mild not too sweet just the right amount needed. But, do not blindbuy this one, I have my friends try this on their skin it smelt like burnt plastic on them. Try it on your skin before buying, fortunately this suited my skin chemistry. Absolute banger for late fall and winter especially for 20 Pounds !!

This stuff has the potential to become the most popular cologne in the world at this price. It's a great profile. Nice juicy mandarin, ties well to the cedar via the pepper note. Together they mirror the (very nice) rose extremely well, and float effervescently atop the balsamic base, which is rounded out nicely by a faint and soft vanilla. I don't at all see this as a vanilla frag. To me it's much more cedar oriented. It's a really nice cedar on the clothes, but like all cedar it doesn't sit well on my skin. I have to make sure this is a "on fabric only" frag to avoid how my chemistry makes cedar smell busy and dusty, and I'm totally fine with that as it's a personal thing, and it is a lovely cedar note. All of it lasts exceptionally well on fabric also, and the price makes it all extremely doable.

Blind bought it a year ago. This is one of my favorite perfumes. First things first, the smell is insanely good. The rose, pepper, and vanilla blend together exceptionally well and create a very mature and sophisticated scent that works great for any occasion. It's a great all-year-round fragrance, except summer. I got lots of compliments with it. Initially reminded me of Moschino Toy Boy due to the pepper and rose notes, but the vibe is completely different, this one is much more welcoming and crowd-pleasing. The longevity and performance are very decent. Not a beast, but very solid. And the bottle design is so good, it feels very old-fashioned in a good way. Overall, it's the best price-to-value fragrance I have ever seen, and considering the price, I would not be afraid to blind buy this one.
