Classic Red
Jaguar (2013)

Not bad at all. Smells a bit too mature and cheap for me to give a thumbs up, but it's wearable.

For me, the smell is like a fruity version of mixing Latour's Cigar with Mugler's B Men. And yes, there is some Thallium in there as others have pointed out.

Modest projection and longevity. Not a great performer but should be fine in most situations. Projection is good (and kinda sneaky good) for about 4-5 hours on my skin. After that, the skin scent goes on for a few more hours.

The opening is a bit like a basket of wild berries - raspberry mainly is what I get. A bergamot undercurrent adds a touch of brightness, and works well with the berry impressions.

Whilst the drydown includes initial attempts to develop a floral side, this is soon overridden by a vanilla note that is strong enough to remain dominant until the end. The transient appearance of soft leather and spices does not detract from the dominance of the tonka, which is not huge and not really cloying - demonstrating hat the other components of this mix are too weak to make a mark.

I get moderate sillage, adequate projection and five hours of longevity on my skin.

The pleasant top notes of this spring scent cannot make up fully for the somewhat less distinctive later stages in its development. 2.75/5.

Well, I wouldn't say entirely unique. The top notes are certainly delightful, a blend of blueberry, raspberry, citrus and leather to my nose, upon the opening. I thought perhaps a dark chocolate vibe or perhaps patchouli, then realized it smells more like a light leather note upon the opening notes. This quickly fades into more or less an overdose of tonka bean, with a slight, very very slight, creamy berry vibe going on there. The dry down of this reminds me of Thallium. In fact, I would say this fragrance is about 90% Thallium, minus the top notes, which only last about 5-7 minutes anyways. Had the top notes lasted longer, had there been less tonka, or at least less so soon, I would be more satisfied. The abundance of tonka is just a cover-up for not having anything else to put in. Tonka, fruity dry down.. mostly tonka.. very boring.

I could have this with Thallium, and for 15 bucks, have it project for a lot better too.

unique and spicy/ sexy this is very dirty to me like dirty english but with a strawberry start....unique
