Believe the Hype...BUT!
I have several Tygar clones and a small sample of the actual fragrance but decided today to pull the trigger and get a full bottle (discounted). Of course this is a fantastic "FANTASTIC" fragrance.
It's a warm, spicy, fruity, aromatic fragrance, with notes that are sweet and sharp. It’s a balanced fragrance that gives you earthy and bright. The note breakdown emphasizes grapefruit in the opening and while I got that, I pick up ginger immediately and it’s what carries it into a wonderful dry down that is very ambroxan forward. The transition is smooth as is the fragrance overall. It’s said to have vetiver in the base but if it’s there it missed my nose, but I really didn’t missy it. This did fine for me without that note. This stuff lasts a long time and its projection while not room filling is very “in the house”.
Having said all of this and I love this fragrance, here comes the "but" pay the full retail price can’t be justified because there are so many excellent clones that come so close that only an expert could tell it’s not the actual Bvlgari fragrance. So, paying 4 bills when the same aura and aroma can be gotten for a fraction of that just smells bad lol.
