About this deal

This is also probably the one John Varvatos release that actually has some good longevity, at least, for a Varvatos. About me: 32 years old, and I tend to favor lighter, more refreshing fragrances with a touch of smoothness/warmth. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. This leads to a heart where North African Orange Blossom, Indian Plant Murraya, Jasmine and Orange are warmed by three types of Ginger - Nigerian, Chinese and 'Purple Ginger'.

Well, if you need to hear it one more time, this is a great herbal citrus fragrance with terrible performance. Read about this perfume in other languages: Deutsch, Español, Français, Čeština, Italiano, Русский, Polski, Português, Ελληνικά, 汉语, Nederlands, Srpski, Română, العربية, Українська, Монгол, עברית.Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. That's an understatement, really, because this juice is ripe with Sicilian clementines, tangelos, mandarins, orange blossoms, and orange-jasmine fusions. It's an unusual note that I don't see often in perfumery, and it smells very garden/foodie, but I'm enjoying the uniqueness of it alongside the orange and orange blossom. Once John Varvatos Artisan Men EDT has reached its full dry-down, it can be summarized as a very low projection, citrus (clementine, tangerine), white floral (orange blossom) and spicy (ginger, marjoram, thyme) fragrance with very soft woody and floral accords.

I honestly love this so much still, I'll spray a little on my wrist and enjoy it for 10 minutes before it vanishes into oblivion.

It opens up with like fresh soapy citrusy then it changes like slightly spicy and floral, dry down is musky woody. it is a heavy scent if smelled too close but its not harsh, you can dig your nose into it and you wouldnt have a problem, no one would especially in my experience. The only thing that is kind of cool is that I know I'll need to change my fragrance because it will be gone, and I have so many great others to choose from. My girlfriend is highly sensitive to smell, and she often comments that I'm wearing too much of something (or that she likes or doesn't like it), but she had no comments. Based on my poor longevity/sillage experiences at counters and with samples, I decided to heavily overspray.

the longevity isnt that great either which is why i carry the bottle in my bag to class and just freshen up after break. The fragrance opens with electrifying citrus explosion with drenched Sicilian clementines mixes with juicy tangelo fruit. The scent is rather short-lived and weak by the performance standards of most modern "cologne bros" but such is the case with most of the Varvatos house to begin with, since Varvatos doesn't like strong fragrances and prefers them to be more of a second-skin. It is constructed as a citrusy-herbal fragrance which announces spring and fresh air created by John Varvatos and Rodrigo Flores-Roux of Givaudan, who worked on other Varvatos' editions. Guess my husband just has excellent body chemistry because this one REALLY projects and lasts on him.This is a wonderful orange scent as fresh as the wicker bottle design which encases this delicious elixer. It’s an incredibly versatile scent that could easily be unisex, that could be worn at any age and although it brings to mind sunshine and warm weather it could be worn any day (but probably not for nighttime). The fragrance quality is so good, the Orange/Clementine note is really strong, and it makes the poor longevity even more of a letdown. It opens up with a very orangey,bright citrusy smell that will smell like a cleaner of some sorts but once it dries down that does go away and it starts to mellow out and get more floral with the jasmine and orange blossom.
