From Different Planets

Outside of the very unique bottle, this stuff is horrific. Of all the scents I've ever smelled and reviews I've ever read, this particular polarizing "fragrance" (misnomer) leads me to believe people are full on delusion participating in group think. Honestly, I get a terrible headache whenever I'm anywhere near this stuff. It's like being at a gas station and pumping gas all over yourself. You really want to smell like gas mixed with burnt tires? Perhaps, okay if you're spending a day at the drag races, but I can't think of one legitimate occasion, outside of that, to ever don this stuff on your person. I'm baffled every time I see a positive review of this... Any other fragrance I can see how personal bias comes into play but there is no mistaking this is just awful, awful, awful stuff. It makes me believe that if Bvlgari scraped up dog poop from the sidewalk and liquified and bottled it that it would have legions of fans raving about how fantastic it is. Dollar store cologne is better! Everyone who has ever written a positive review of this stuff PLEASE tell me you did it for grins. PLEASE! I hate this stuff so much I've returned from a multi year hiatus after seeing an email to a link to another review extolling the virtues of this bottled garbage. Thank you, Bvlgari Black for bringing me back, if only for this.

To Tdebruin73... You need to learn that my opinion is my opinion. You realize that many people get headaches from smells because they're toxic just like BB? Never said my opinion was superior. Just gave my honest reaction to one of the single worst smells I've ever smelled.

You need to learn that your opinion is not superior and cut down on the hyperbole.
Aside from the fact that i tend not to take anyone seriously who complains about "getting a terrible headache" just from a smell (consult a doctor if you really do), the same goes for anyone who is obnoxious in being completely unwilling to accept that others might actually enjoy something that they don't.
We get it. You don't like this. Stop pretending you are presenting facts rather than mere opinions.

All of us have a scent that we hate but others love. So many variables - associations, one's personal scent, etc. I therefore think it best to shy away from insulting those who love what you hate. Someday, you'll be on the other side of it!

:) I just HATE this stuff and have very very hard time believing any person could spray this and actually say anything other than it smells terrible. Then, again, I've known folks who like the smell of skunks, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Hmmm. Is this supposed to be a critique of a fragrance you happen to dislike or of the folk who enjoy it?
