Outright are the black vetiver, blue cedar, and a very freshly somewhat spicy smell. The musky cardamom smell remains completely hidden until it dries downcast on your skin, but it’s actually a pretty good amelling cologne. Smells like a refined woody aquatic cologne that’s carries. Best for office or going out somewhere nice, but not too nice. 3.9/10

I had an issue with this scent, I picked it as my first scent was Prada Luna sports and it had a few of the same scents as the Prada but a distinct smell of body odor. Whether it was the nutmeg, blue cedar, cardamon or black vtiver it just didn't do it for me. Strike one for me!!!!!! while i use it sparingly it gets 1 start from me.

Musky woody date night fragrance. Super masculine

Loved this scent. Soft enough to wear as an everyday scent.

Nice scent

The scent is light enough for the office. It’s nice and bright. Love it!

Just Perfect !

Love the smell, if you like Terre de Hermés than you will like this for the most part. If someone can replicate this or that Terre de Hermés scent with some serious longevity they would have a winner.

I found this appealing in the way of Bleu de Chanel or Sauvage. It was was pleasant with a mass appealing character. No one would find it offensive. It would be best for evenings and could be worn all year. I personally prefer Bleu de Chanel over this fragrance.

Cardamom.. lots and lots of cardamom. But in a good way. Bleu Noir is reminiscent of the original Narciso Rodriguez for Him but with the wet pavement smell toned down and a lot of cardamom right up top. This is a nice, slightly more challenging casual scent that will stand out among the more typical men's colognes. As much as I love cardamom, this may be just a touch too much for me.

Happy to have tried the trial size yet won’t likely buy larger size as scent does it stand out

I think this one is my favorite so far. Reminds me of Gucci pour home with the cedar tones . Very smooth and sophisticated. Highly recommended! I will definitely own a bottle.

Love the smell. Its gotten a lot of attention.

I loved the scent from the first spray. I was well informed of this name and had smelt tho women's version and loved it so I figured I would give this a try. Thank You!!!!

I wanted to like this, but the longer you wear it the worse it gets. It's too strong for its own good.

This does smell similar to Terre de Hermés. But it is different enough. I really enjoy this and on my skin it does not get confused with Hermès. It gets compliments!

Went on a whim with this one. Glad I did. It’s a good, casual scent that leads with the ebony wood and nutmeg.

This scent is different from anything I own. I love the spiciness of it.

This is a soft but heavier scent. Nice blend of wood and musk.

Pretty good. Like valentInk uomo but weaker.

Loved this right out of the box. Great recipe. Could last a little longer is the only downside.

Not too overpowering, solid woody scent that reminds me a bit of Terre d'Hermes.

This scent has a sharp undertone to it. It tends to usually last most of the day, unlike some of the other scents I've received. It is more of an acquired smell. So it's a hit or miss. The musk and cedar wood are very noticeable. My wife liked it but other family members weren't too keen to it. It is a good scent to wear to the office because it is not overpowering. Over all I liked it but didn't love it.

I wanted to like it. At first I did but as the scent continued to linger it was too heavy on the musk and powder. The ebony wood comes across as too synthetic. If I had to choose a setting it would be in the office wearing a navy blue suit. Not for close encounters!

Very impressive scent.

A woman in my office suggested this designer’s cologne, so I took a shot & glad I did. The scent is terrific & my wife loves it.

I like this scent. It goes on with a strong orange scent that soon changes to a great manly scent. My wife said she liked it when I wore it.

Love the scent, but the performance was lacking

Excellent scent, which lives up to its inclusion in the date-night category. This is a light, sophisticated scent which dresses itself up or down to the occasion.

It starts strong, and i really didn't like it, but after a day or so it grew on me and now i thoroughly enjoy the smell

This one starts off a little challenging. The cardamom note comes off a bit like b.o. once they does down or smell quite nice. Longevity and performance are not very good. This one is weak and shirt lived.

Kind of spicy up front. Baby powder dry down.

Boring

Impressed with this very much

Love it

A strong masculine scent that you can't deny your collection of.

Smells great.

There is something strong about this scent that is not enjoyable. Word of caution.

Very clean scent with hints of orange. I dig it!!!

.ove it - this scent is light, crisp, and clean.

Deep, strong, mysterious 😎

So woody. Too much wood.

It's ok. smell doesn't last long

New to this cologne thing. This cologne has a good smell but is very light. I use it to go out to eat that way the smell doesn't overpower food.

Smells amazing!!
