John Varvatos

John Varvatos

Artisan Black

This was my first John Varvatos fragrance that was a complete let down. It's a beautiful scent that sits way to close to the skin for me. Even after over spraying it, I could only smell a hint of the blood oranges and ginger. Also, longevity is really poor.

The blood orange leads the frangrance in this one. Good, warm, and simple. Nothing complicated here.

This really set the tone

This scent is a good citrus based scent. It doesn't smell like I am spraying Lysol on myself in the morning. The major Notes are the Tangerine and Lemon to my nose, with a hint of the ginger on the last few seconds of a deep breath inward. I have used most of the subscription sized bottle and have enjoyed it every time. If you know citrus smells work for you, this is definitely a must have in your repertoire of colognes in my opinion.

Its not that i smells bad its just not my cup of tea.

This cologne was recomnended to me as a former cologne salesman I did have access to a lot of different fragrances but I always remembered this scent because it was very tropical. Uniquely so, fruity but not feminine and not too sweet it had good balance and wasn't overpowering. I feel like this is a good cologne to wear in the summer time.

Very very good smell. Starts off keep bad like an old lady, but quickly becomes something different and amazing

Nice notes. Elegant scent that was nice for dinner outings

There is too much going on in this fragrance. Sometimes simplicity is best. I can smell a sharp artificial tangerine/mandarin note prominent throughout the life of the scent but that isn't the origin of it's downfall. The mishmash of a dozen other floral and spice notes give an almost headache inducing too many cooks spoil the broth. It's too sweet and floral for my tastes.

So im in love this wonderful smell. I cant describe it but it smells amazing.

Ok I'm impressed by the scent. Very fresh smelling. My wife loved it and that's good for me

I was hoping to experience a more enjoyable scent from this one but was let down. It smells ok & this one will probably sit on the tray for a while until I don't have anything else to wear for that specific occasion. It sits very close to my skin & really didn't last very long.

Good day smell, had a clean fresh scent and not over powering.

This is a very light refreshing scent. Great for the summer.

I really like the way this cologne smells. I don't know about the complexities of this cologne only that for my personal chemistry this scent leaves a wonderful fragrance and lasts for hours. I would love to try similar colognes. You can't go wrong with this one.

I definitely don't hate it. I wear it on occasion

First time I have received a scent that I absolutely did not like and would not ever use. Just not for me, think it smells like something an older gentleman would wear but not my style. Would like a different scent to replace.

Strong citrus scent that lasts all day. Its definitely a ?night-out? scent but I wear this at the office too. Very powerful.

When I started using Scentbird, I wasn't so sure I'd find a cologne better than Versace Pour Homme, the first sample I received, but then I tried Artisan Black. Oh man, what a scent. Artisan Black is a fresh, citrusy scent perfect for spring/summer. I definitely prefer fresher, more summery scents, and this is the best I've tried. It's mature, not over-baring, and still has great longevity. Immediate compliments once I started wearing it. Perfect for almost any occasion. I highly recommend Artisan Black, and I think I'll even buy a full bottle once my monthly sample is gone.

This is my first scent from Scentbird, and I am extremely happy with the entire process. I love this scent and can?t wait to get the next one from my que!!

At first i wasnt a big fan of it. But more i wore it i grew on me. Not to strong or overbearing. Scent last most or all day.

Absolutly love this scent, I do belive this has become my sevond favorite to that of creed. Its so mellow and so satisfying.

It is very strong and forward when first put on, but fades by mid day.

Very good scent that stays with you all day. Many colognes go on and will need refreshing throughout the day but this one stays with you for at least 10 hours or more but not overbearing.

Strong at first but fades out nice. Not something to wear everyday but it?s bold and makes a statement.

Not a bad scent, but not my type.

I've found it. Love this cologne, it's intense and intoxicating up front and then mellows out into a sophisticated manly aroma that lingers on you for a hot minute. Because it's so potent I can spray 1 time, meaning it'll last longer. This is going to be a staple in my collection from now on.

OMG this is one of my favorites, I can't stop smelling him, and kissing him, and .... Nom nom nom

Top 5 one of the best

It?s a very light cologne but lasts for a long time. I?ve got many compliments from people I deliver to, I work for ups, and for some reason it?s always a topic of conversation. I would highly recommend trying out this scent.

This sent was amazing, it has a nice spice to it and is perfect for those with a more refined sense of style. It does -not- smell too musky which I was worried about when I initially selected it. Colognes with a lot of musk smell way too dated in my opinion. Overall it's a nice fall/winter sent that gives a refined/classy vibe and I'd recommend it for anyone looking for that sort of look.

The cologne I got from January is not in men?s cologne that smells more like a woman is cool I was very disappointed would like to start January all over again

Smells like an old dude

Loved this scent immediately!

This one smells spicy perfect for a night out. it mixed so well with my husbands natural oils.

Good with leather

It's more manly and more brute smell then some of the rest I got. I would recommen

This particular scent is one I can wear just about every day before I leave... Mixes well with hard work, unfortunately the scent does not stay with you the whole day so be prepared to bring it with to freshen up for that meeting after work... For that reason I'm giving it 4 stars

Im in my 30s and this scent is probably something my dad or grandfather would like. Definitely an older man type of cologne.

I LOVE this scent, citrusy and woodsy blended with a nuance of leather! I love the first sprays but it dissipates quickly and does not last long. I wish this scent lasted longer!!

My husband loves this scent, he loves John Varatos brand.

Not a real favorite. When I first sprayed it on it snelles like a mixture if leather and a citrus which I personally didn't like. When it layed on the skin I got slight hints of the leather. The longevity was about 3 to 4 hours so you would have to keep reapplying. Not a top 10 favorite.

I love this scent, I've gotten many compliments on this and I love it. Very masculine, definitely one of my favorites.

Great scent I was looking to try something new and it was it

Nice manly scent

Nice manly scent

This cologne smells okay it's too strong and you can smell the ginger and leather with a hint the blood orange.

Great perfume.. lasts longer highly recommend it..

I am not overly impressed with this scent it is ok but not one of my favorites. I have given this bottle to my son.

Loved the smell it lasted a while highly recommend

I love this sent and so does my Boo. He loves how it it disapates slowly leaving that lingering sent on clothes

My husband loves it warm masculine scent

This is a good office cologne. Not too strong

Loved it

going?

Love this scent!

I KNOW THIS COMMENT WILL BE SO SIMPLE BUT: I LOVE THE SMELL!

At first I didn't like it. But it grew on me. I'm more of a oil base cologne guy I think it last longer. This cologne wore off after a hour of putting it on.?

Loved it

Enticing tangerine notes with some rustic woodiness to balance it out. Missing some edge.

I loved this fragrance. Strong yet not over powering!!

It's good, but I like Vince Camuto better.

It little bit light but good for the night?

Wasn't sure what I thought about it when I first got it, but as I put it on for the next few days the scent really grew on me. Its a subtle lingering scent that is fresh, and I enjoy very much. My two go two colognes have been Armani Code and Versace Eros, this will go in my collection as another favorite.

Love this cologne.

I love this scent! The longer it sits the better it smells.

Really liked this one a lot. Very clean and citrusy. Definitely satisfied with my first package.

This is a clean, bright smelling cologne. It is ideal as an every day cologne as it is not overpowering or offensive. I was presently surprised by this one.

Sporty on the go scent! Love it

Love it

it a good one

Its a bit too masculine for my taste isnt that strong

<3

An great scent... I just wish it had more longevity.

this smells GREAT!

Very musky and masculine, stronger than most. Subtle as long as you don't spray too much. Smells great, leathery and woodsy.

My husband did not like it, he says its too feminine for him. I love it however

I didn't like it. It wasn't what I was expecting. But good experience.

Nice Smell

Great strong smell. Subtle yet vibrant. Great for any occasion.

Actually. I didnt really like this one. I cant smell it. Dissipates too fast. Kinda peppery

Little spicier than what I'm used to. Fewer compliments received than with other perfumes. But, will wear when in a darker more mysterious mood. Lol

I really enjoyed this cologne, I got many compliments on the smell while wearing it. Without a doubt one of my favorite colognes.

Very subtle, almost too subtle for my taste. Would probably work better for an older gentlemen. Long lasting, great for wearing to the office, but not for date night.

First time wearing this cologne. Colleagues & friends have stayed, you smell good! Very cool.

This is very sexy, dark and mysterious. My husband loves it

not too strong and smells clean

Love this scent. Long lasting

Loved it!

LOVE

Good

Great smelling cologne, my wife loves it.

I love it

This cologne smells good but does not stay with you very long.
