About this deal

I find it interesting, by the way, that here more often the comparison is made with Invictus and this is explained as a difference to the SWY. The SWY smells namely at the beginning (so in the opening) also briefly after Invictus!!! In the Odyssey Homme White Edition this Invictus-like top note merely lasts much longer and therefore already mixes with the heart note.... Only after about 30-60 lets this mixing By no means you get a bad fragrance here, but for me he smells pretty 0-8-15 and strongly synthetic. Unfortunately, I do not like that. Nevertheless, I got compliments and he comes with other people well. The fragrance smells for me, by the way, like a briefly dipped in Nutella Invictus Aqua (2018) no matter whether we are now talking about the Emporio Armani - Stronger With You or Odyssey Homme White Edition (are, after all, almost identical). Tag-Him: Blue fragrance with sharp mint and ginger. This one goes all-in on that and the ginger scent is accurate to when I cook with it. However the blue sport soap/showergel aspect is just sharp and clean and there's nothing else to it. Nothing more nuanced or attractive that makes you want to get closer and smell it in its entirety, just sharp and that's it. Tres Nuit: Lemon verbena and lavender with ambergris is an amazing combination. The lavender would be too soft and cloying on its own but paired with the lemon verbena, both balance each other out amazingly. Imagine a lemon tea with florals and musk, it's great.

In the drydown, however, I feel the fragrance like a rather distinct anecdote to Tom Ford Noir Extreme, relatively authentic even. Oja, woody amber and gujak and something fresh now dominates the fragrance and the whole thing holds quite long.

Customer reviews

Top Notes: Grapefruit, Bergamot, Neroli, Lemon, Mandarin Orange, Lime | Middle Notes: Rosemary, Lavender, Jasmine, Nutmeg | Base Notes: Oakmoss, Cedar, Amber, Patchouli, Vanilla, Musk | Size: 3.4oz | Type: Eau De Parfum | Season: Summer Club de Nuit Intense Man: This is the most famous Armaf fragrance and while I still maintain that it's overrated, I have figured out how to appreciate its good side. The key is approaching this as a birch-first fragrance and letting the pineapple and other notes accentuate the birch. And the birch is respectably good and interesting but the overall result is only average. The Odyssey Homme White Edition is virtually a dupe of the Emporio Armani - Stronger With You but with somewhat inferior quality. However, this is not really bad and also gets better in the course. It has a slightly stronger alcohol note in my eyes or nose, but as I said, it gets better with time. After that, it is virtually 1:1 the SWY. So you get for the approx 25€ a somewhat inferior Stronger with you with the fresh top note plays significantly longer than the original. I personally find that even good / better! Also, I find the performance, so H/S better. If someone is looking for a woody and fresh fragrance, he will certainly find here for little money.

A few sprays and already the first fragrance molecules in my nose tell me, yes, that's really good and is in my Beuteschema. Armaf’s colognes are available in a variety of scents. Which one you choose will be determined by the smells you enjoy and when you plan to wear it.Initially I was still a fan of Swiss Arabian, then they were cheaper and have now risen in price, but what there Lattafa and now also Armaf deliver, which blows me away really, in the positive sense. Ok, either lets me my olfactory bulb slowly in the lurch, I'm biologically also no longer the youngest, where I myself still feel rather young...well, again 2 sprays nachgelegt...jaaah, now he is better perceptible.

Well, the Auftrakt is fresh and slightly citric...a few moments later, the first impression is gone and now surrounds me a gefplegter woody fragrance. Blue Homme is the perfumer’s warm-weather fragrance that costs considerably less than a flight to The Bahamas. Club de Nuit Man: Warm spicy plus pepper plus mandarin orange. I'd describe this as being for someone that likes allspice in their Christmas desserts. Unlike with the F-tier I can see how this would appeal to the right person but I scrubbed this one off. In the further course of the fragrance does not do much. The course is quite linear. The only thing I had noticed is that it becomes a bit woodier and the fruity components recede slightly. I had and have also more expensive originals and I find that fragrances can be similar, but are never exactly the same.It’s crisp, fresh, and citrusy with notes of lemon, bergamot, mandarin orange, lime, and grapefruit. If I were to liken it to anything you may have tried before, it’s similar to Aqua Gio by Giorgio Armani. Average performance. It lasts about 4 hours on my skin. What's decisively different from VUI or DHI is that it doesn't work well in cold weather, so it feels like weird plastic vanilla. Especially true at temperatures down to subzero Celsius. I recommend wearing only indoors in winter. It's not something we don't understand given that the producing country of it is a very hot country. Ventana: The mandarin orange fails to balance out the lavender and the combination ends up smelling like laundry detergent. It's not offensive but it's not good either, just a bit cloying. In the opening Odyssey has me unfortunately only times rather disappointed, has really nothing to do with DHI and VUI ... rather so Spicebomb Extreme without top notes ... in a shallower way, rather unspecific and not very tingling.
