Club Men
Azzaro (2013)

Ha! Classic to a degree that it couldn't be more! Think Denim Black, Azzaro Silver Black, Emporio Armani Lui. There is a bit of tea-ish hint derived from Bvlgari PH Soir. It is a bit synthetic but what isn't these days anyway.

Nothing original, nothing ingenious but I have to give it some credit though. Barely worn, even less talked about, or even mentioned. It's quite a bit of a retro type of scent, very versatile, relatively potent but not invasive. If people would give it a chance, it'd be noticed quite a bit, however still wouldn't be talked off - well at least not a lot. I just can't bash it. I'll give a thumb up regardless it'll probably never end up as part of my collection - but then again one never knows.

The opening with lime/papaya would be nice if it was not so blatantly synthetic-generic, but the drydown is nice with wet hemp and a slight sweetish note. The base is woodsy with a white musk and a whiff of fruitiness on my skin. Not bad but too generic, with good silage and projection though. I get a longevity of five hours.
