The official scent of a bank's head office

Azzaro Chrome is the official scent of formal workplaces. It is not seductive, not very daring and probably has been worn by bankers and lawyers alike for the past twenty years, but I can't find a problem with that.

Chrome is a summer freshie at its core, with a nice, zesty but not juicy opening (very far from "Renaissance | XerJoff"). Its aromatic heart and base are perceptible almost immediately, and really are the core of the scent. Chrome stands on its own in such an unbothered but classy way... It's hard to describe. The metallic notes are also fresh (not ozonic), which plays into the perfume's character. At the end, a touch (and I mean only a touch) of wood and herbal bitterness show up.

Perfomance is excellent for a freshie, on par with Cool Water Eau de Toilette. Chrome has a strong projection off of my skin, and stays for 6-8 hours.

If you need to dress up for business and want a mature freshie that doesn't smell of generic deodorant, grab yourself a flask.

Freshie

I had this given to me as a birthday gift at eighteen and have been wearing it ever since I’m now thirty-four my wife loves it was the one I wore when we met she even made me spray he pillow so she could smell it when I wasn’t there .
It starts of fresh and a bit cold it has good projection and lasts a while on my skin awesome for spring summer and warmer autumn nights.
It can be worn casually or as an office scent and it doesn’t seem to offend anyone and it does get compliments I’ve had tons over the years if you don’t have this in you collection I highly recommend this

Classic summer men fragrance

bought in April 2008 to prepare for a hot summer in the south of France. I had already tested it via a sample and its freshness convinced me.

we are really on a fresh and aquatic synthetic fragrance, a classic of men's perfumery, a must have for every summer.

its smell is unique, to this day I do not remember having found a similar perfume that was more affordable in terms of price.

Fresh aromatic

Chrome has always been my favorite for men. I know it is out of fashion now, but it smells very appealing. It’s been labeled as aquatic, but it’s actually more a citrusy aromatic cologne. It starts out with some lemony bergamot and then gets into some light spices like coriander and ends up oakmossy fresh with some woody undertones for added strength. It can easily be an office or business friendly scent, and just as easily a date night one as well. I think it especially can suit a more reserved, introverted personality.
