This one it’s a clone of Bond No. 9 New York Nights. It opens with an unexpected animalic nuance, but it only lasts about 5-10 minutes. Then, the green, floral, and sweet accords begins to elevate its alluring aroma. As it dries down, the sea, coffee, and woody undertones appear to create a perfect and balanced sent. This is a very subtle fragrance that might cause nose blindness. However, I can sense it every time I move (but the caveat hire is that I over spray it). It’s a beautiful scent, but too subtle to my taste. A safe, inoffensive, mass appealing aroma for the office, dates, family and friends gathering, flight, etc. Performance and longevity is average.

So I read this one, it’s Inside Hooks’ take on the best 16 of 2025, and there’s some interesting choices, some I know, some I’ve tried, some I’ve never heard of. Don’t shoot the messenger if you disagree. Yes @Lon Chaneyfield there are affiliate links but it’s not AI or sponsored. 😉 https://www.insidehook.com/grooming/best-new-mens-colognes
