About this deal

So, it's not unusual for many men's fragrances out there (1990's onwards) to have a "frozen" or "ice" theme. In this case, it's an icy fresh themed take by Bvlgari for men.

Do not buy this unless you've givven this a full wear on skin. It smells much different on skin than on paper, and evolves quite a bit after the first few hours. I think what office must mean is higher density cubicles, a fragrance cannot be worse than the cubicle neighbor with wretched dietary habits and all that follows. I am sorry pig man but you yourself are not for office. Will it be out the door, or down the stairwell? Office?! : put on your big boy pants and figure it out. If you are an options broker tops on the production list--wear it, it's your game. Ask the lady with the rubber tipped fingers that has been there for along time. She knows how the corporation works and she will tell you if you stink. God I really just think she rules, you know? It smells like a darker Terre D'hermes but less appealing since the oranges are abscent. What makes TDH good is the balance of dark and bright. This is earthy and brown through and through. The iciness is the most apparent factor, and it's an obviously cool, kind of aquatic thing with some musky cedar. Geranium is always a funky note to me, so be prepared to not enjoy this if you dislike it, because it is a little plant-y. It's blended along the juniper and cedar in a way though where it isn't odd.The blissful maiden intended to noblite him, Mömselbach, to the arbiter elegantiarum and asked him for his opinion on a water of scent, which she sought to acquire for the apparently scantily entrusted one. If this scent had been released as part of the Le Gemme line of Expensive, exclusive Bvlgari scents, it would not have been out of place. As part of the Man line, it is that rare flanker that breaks truly new ground. The fragrance feels more expensive than it is and radiates quality. Longevity is considerable, but, as mentioned, projection remains moderate throughout the scent's 8+ hour life. About the only place where the quality is less than superior is the presentation, where a non-fiction box holds an attractive, but interceptions bottle with a mediocre integrated atomizer. These minor gripes notwithstanding, at the prices for which I see this scent being sold, it is a great value. Color me surprised by this, because I did not expect to like yet another flanker in a beaten-to-death line from Bvlgari, which has been vomiting AI-powered stream-of-consciousness drivel for years, mostly from overworked commercial wizard Alberto Morillas, but here we are. Bvlgari Man Wood Neroli (2019) is a flanker-of-a-flanker to Bvlgari Man Wood Essence (2018), itself a misguided flanker of Bvlgari Man (2010) that sought to merge a green aromatic fougère-type construction with an ambroxan base like a sloppy photoshop job for a National Enquirer cover. With Bvlgari Man Wood Neroli, much of that retro-chic half-heartedness is discarded and replaced with a rather well-done citrus and white floral structure, although the same ambroxan-powered base remains. In this case, the standard almost pre-fab base Morillas seems to be rolling out for most designers anymore actually works well in the context of the rest of this fragrance, so I'm not irked by what otherwise would be another asleep-at-the-wheel composition. Anyone deeply in love with orange blossom perfumes with heaps of natural neroli oil or looking for a more-pure soliflore presentation of the note may wish to look elsewhere though, as the note is a key player, but still just a cut-rate version produced by a mass-market flavorant/odorant supplier. All told, this reminds me a lot of what Luciano Soprani tried to do with neroli notes in Just Free (2004) but in a woody ambrox context rather than aquatic. Citrus open, two different types of Vetiver in the middle, some orris and a base where Styrax is loveable with finesse. Animalic haters might want to try this one. Or not ever! Now. . the Vetiver: You will not be entangled with the Vetiver. It will not take a tactical nuclear detergent bomb to refresh yourself. This Vetiver is so fun and free.

These had apparently fallen into the hands of a syndicate of marauding, nefarious, internationally networked despisers of taste. Starts slightly sweet, musky, clean, a bit herbacious, but not too much... then the ginger gives it a special brightness to it that HMMMM. The fragrance: Soo, Wood Neroli begins with exactly the same scents that the fragrance already hints at in its name, namely woody notes and neroli. At the beginning you can smell bergamot, which gives a citrus-fresh feeling and citrus fans like it anyway. Then the intensive Neroliduft becomes well noticeable, which lasts also longer. Besides, there are the mentioned woody scents. While these still smell "generally woody" at the beginning, one smells a cedar further and further later, whereby also the intensity of this woody note increases clearly.

My Account

It's a COOL fragrance but nothing mindblowing or extreme or disgusting, as one person wrote "it's a main line bvlgari, how unsafe can it be? "

Folks train those noses! Dior Sauvage is typical sweet bomb every house is seemignly releasing and Gucci Guilty Absolute which I love is a pure leather scent like a mans upscale shoe store boutique lingering in the air.There is NOTHING not safe or rough in this fragrance, maybe for people who only ever smelled something like BDC EDT, i would say even Sauvage is more rough on the nose than this. Being a South East Asian, if I can only have one word to describe this fragrance is that it's... traditional. Yeah, I think that's it. Definitely not a mass pleaser and if I were not a South East Asian, I'd probably wonder where and when I can wear this fragrance.

This is a more mature fragrance probably best for men 30 and up. It would take some confidence to wear this fragrance but to me personally, this is gorgeous and masculine. I would make some full wearing at home for a follow up review but as of now, I like this fragrance. To me it smells a little sour, something like issey miyake leau dissey maybe, then from there it's just a woodsy dry musky down with not much to it. I really wish the vetiver was something more earthy and dirty like i expected it to be (like laliqe encre noire maybe) but nah it's just plain simple woodsy citrus scent. It is sour that is for sure, smells like if you rubbed pine needles between your fingers. So if that's not your gig then maybe skip or sample it first. This is more unique and not the typical sweet millennial metrosexual "everybody else is doing it, so why can't we release something similar" type of scent. Like Paco Rabane One million, Invictus, Dior Sauvage, YSL L'homme, and all those unmanly sweet bomb scents appealing to the mainstream masses and clubbers just like the prolific overrated Oud releases that are saturating the stores eclipsing fragrances that are actually classic, unique, niche or true works of art. In his grief box there was an inquiry whose sender called himself Schantall Mutzenbecher-Gumpicht. Mömselbach immediately feared the worst and was not disappointed. Aside from that it’s very versatile and flexible for any age group and probably more of a casual or office wear than any other occasion

Really don't get the hate around this fragrance. It's my signature scent and I really hope it stays under the radar. I've personally never smelled anything similar to this so in that sense it's very unique. I've had a colleague smell it because he found it familiar and he guessed about 20 times before giving up. Also, a great compliment getter from the ladies - but don't expect those to fall from the sky, it's not an average crowd pleaser. Some of the sweetly threadbare or even sweetly penetrating creations described as "new" seemed from the outset to be designed to promote the general decay of all aesthetics, and this also seemed to be the declared aim of the general olfactory levelling. Today these same citrus oils still dominate the world of scent but it isn't just a simple case of oranges and lemons. There is, in fact, a range of different ingredients derived from the humble orange - fruit, flowers, leaf and all - including bergamot, petitgrain and neroli. Hello guys, today I'm coming to a Bvlgari men's fragrance, which I just happened to see standing on the shelf and thought I could test it sometime. Admittedly, the name "Neroli" also attracted me, as I like Neroli, but I also liked the colouring of the bottle. Besides, I had to change again, after I had tried more women's fragrances lately. I find a one squirt or two on each flat of the arm creates a delightful waft with more inclinations to good wholesome wood and less earthy, biologic fragrances. Go harder and the styrax asserts itself. Go harder and the entire scent is just much more lively and so much more radical. Hot, just plain hot. You might like it. Huh?
