Dunhill Pure Cologne

Great value

its a cool, clean smell that lasts the whole day.. i am complimented on it every day. its a scent of confidence, sexiness, and nice clean, manly scent. i happened to come across it from a stuff in in a bill from lord and taylor. immediately i went to the web to order it, try it out.. the prices were way chesper.. since then, two years now, this is all i wear... you'll love it..

i love the smell of it . it makes me feel very good and proud of the way i smell. fresh ,

This was a very different smell. Cedar and oranges mainly and as good as it smells I would have to say it's not something I wanna smell like. It's hard to find the occasion where this would fit in, but maybe on others it smells better. A great scent just not for me.

The absolute best cologne I have ever experienced, bar none! Perfect blend of sweetness, fruitiness, and spiciness. Lasting power and sillage are EXCELLENT! 8 to 9 hours minimum, two sprays lasts all day and all night on me. This cologne smells of spicy blood oranges. Extremely unique scent, fantastic! This is top quality stuff guys! I cannot stress that enough. I highly recommend that you try this one ASAP!

The initial blast is promising. Grapefruit and peppey and a healthy dose of orange with hints of cedar. It all goes downhill from there. The grapefruit and pepper fade and a mango'esque note joins the orange and what was a thick rich and deep opening all becomes rather anemic. At this point any semblance of naturalness in the scent has faded and I find myself surrounded by wafts of.. it took me a while to place, but wafts of Dawn dishsoap. Yes, an hour or so after spraying, it begins to smell like Dawn original scent dishsoap, and this scent lingers for hours and hours until the cedar and vetiver in the base finally make themselves known again, but by then it's too late. A synthetic mess. I know a lot of people love the scent, but there seem to be equal numbers (on Basenotes at least, a forum about all things perfume) that truly dislike it. A common comment over there is that it smells of "rotten oranges" - and while I wouldn't use that exact imagery, I can understand where they are coming from. A better alternative is L'Artisan's Timbuktu, which starts out just as rich but even dryer, but goes through a much more interesting evolution throughout its life. I've also heard Cereus #5 is supposed to be similar to Terre D'Hermes. I'll have to give it a shot, as I like the concept of Terre D'Hermes, it's just the execution that falls flat.

Terre d'Hermes est un parfum subtil et merveilleusement voluptueux
