Seductive Homme

As the name implies there's a seductive quality to this fragrance. The orchid takes center stage and it's definitely a vanilla orchid accord delivering a warm sweetness that captivates you from the start. As the other notes begin to emerge they further add to this slightly spicy, warm, floral symphony. This is a sweet men's fragrance done correctly. Never did I find it to cross into sickly saccharine territory or that overly loud bubblegum cry for attention some others have. It's not gourmand, but does resemble a delicious confectionary scent like cupcakes baking in your oven mixed with that ambered spice. Performance could be better, not a lot of projection after a while and it lasts a few hours but for $11 this is an absolute gem.

Don't let this escape notice at Rack stores! I passed over this and the rest of the line multiple times thinking it was cheap and Guess brand so probably just not worth it at all. Got this one and sprayed on a hot day (idk why but who cares). This stuff was projecting off my skin for several hours and detectable hours after that. Like a scent I really noticed on myself. Comparison? I don't know many of the ones listed above, but I think there are similarities to Gucci Envy. It is NOT gucci envy dupe or substitute, but if you like Gucci Envy I think you would like this at the price point especially. It is sweeter than Envy also I should add. But I'm surprised! Worth $20 for 100 ml easily.

For those who think yall going to get a YSL LNDL clone, just so yall know it smells nothing like YSL LNDL. YSL is more floral and a bright scent that has lavender and bergamot which for some reason when those 2 mixed together make a bright floral smell. This cologne is more musk warm, yes it has orchids and violet leaves but it’s very small amount.. The only thing I smelled possibly similar was the cardamon THATS IT!! I did side by side on tester sheet and skin. This cologne actually SMELLS BETTER THAN YSL!! And that’s saying a lot from me bc YSL LNDL is my favorite cologne!! But doesn’t last as long as LNDL. But very good cologne it smells realllllllly good!!

The DNA and price on this scent are safe for someone new to colognes. That being said, this scent goes from a 2 hour projection, to 6-7 hours after macerating for 6 months or so. This brings me back to when I got into sales. I bought this in early fall not knowing a ton about fragrances and started wearing it when this cologne shines the most (55-65 degree day temps). I will absolutely always have this cologne in my collection, and it is one of those perfect dumb reach frags for fall days when you're unsure what to wear. OH AND IT'S CHEAP AND INOFFENSIVE! 7.5/10 overall rating IMO when you factor price and versatility.

This is a wonderful fragrance for the price point. I have almost 70 fragrances and still wanted this one in my collection. I like to toss it on for work in the cool weather, it wears well. It has a slight masculine edge about it and also a touch of an old school vibe to it. It also possesses some richness/sweetness to it that pairs nicely with everything else. It actually reminds me some of Burberry - Brit which I love. I was able to get the gift set that comes with the 3.4oz cologne, the body spray and body wash along with a cool little zipper bath bag. Price was fantastic for everything included.
