About this deal

A nice spring fragrance with moderate to long lasting longevity, that smells a bit different to all the other 'blue' type fragrances out there.

I usually apply 5 sprays, maybe more if I feel like I will be sweating, however, I applied about 5 sprays of it before a football game last week and some friends in the stands said they could smell it from like 6 feet away, I did apply it around 20 minutes before I went but be sure not to spray too much. This fragrance was introduced as a lighter, more aquatic, and refreshing version of the original Versace Man. As the amount of inventory in our Boutique changes frequently, we cannot guarantee the availability of items. But I think it is perfect for outdoor activities, like going to beach/picnic/playing sports with friends because of its energizing feel.

As mentioned its very lemony and sweet but there is a very elegant almost woodiness to it that makes it very masculine.

Kilian Hennessy's Inspiration: For the warmer season, KILIAN PARIS crafts its newest variation, the addiction of Love, don’t be shy with the freshness and delicacy of Petit Grain.

These notes linger through the entire composition, though the heart explores a hint of black pepper and the drydown introduces classic masculine notes of woods, ambers and musk. I also find the bottle quite outdated and nowhere near as stylish as the Versace Pour Homme line bottles which have a similar shape but are sleeker and more modern.

Its a very beautiful fragrance overall and if only performance was better, this would be one of the best fresh fragrances on the market. Lo único "malo" para mí, es que más que fresco le saco la parte cálida o dulzona de esos dulces que empalagan. Won't last long on you, and those who know perfume stuff would guess that you are wearing a mass-market designer synthetic fragrance, which is what it is.The cologne is perfect for the beach or the pool, where you don’t have to worry about it washing off. It smells OK on the atomizer, or in the air, but on my skin it becomes overpoweringly sour and musky. The slightly sweet opening with a sharp lemon allows one to distinguish a fruity note of carambola and a light touch of wood.

If you expect a heavy fragrance for the winter, this is not for you, because it is a subtle fragrance, I would say refined and created by Olivier. It has almost nothing to do with ADG, however it's aquatic in a similar way if that makes any sense. The soapy, citrusly scent is absolutely stunning, and it quickly caught me off guard the first few times I have smelled it simply due to how amazing it smells.EDIT* I am updating this review after a couple more weeks of use to mention that while wearing this I do receive a fair few compliments from people - if that's a factor for you I can confirm that it seems to be a people-pleaser, and perhaps its more noticeable than I assumed from my initial review. It is often likened to a whisper, a subtle hint of fragrance that enhances your personal scent rather than overpowering it. If I could succinctly summarize this fragrance, it's like pulling out a freshly cut melon that's been swimming in a pool with a little too much chlorine in it for hours. It's also somehow similar to the dry down of L’Eau d’Issey Pour Homme Sport (which BTW is itself somehow similar to the aforementioned Sander for Men) but this one is fresher and more citrusy, whereas the L'Eau d'Issey has more spice and sour notes. Also, the Chrome Sport bottle's silver atomiser and surround did come loose after a few months, so the build quality is nowhere near as good either.
