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.

Tygar is good but it’s simply outclassed
Tygar is good, but it’s boring, and overpriced

After having tried the below perfumes, it just feels crude and uninspired compared to them
Given how much more expensive it is, there is no reason for me to even consider it

Aqua de Dora is a straight, significant upgrade in terms of scent, creativity, complexity, performance and price

Ingenious Ginger smells a LOT better, and is much more interesting. Performance isn’t a whole lot worse, and it’s half the price

Forever Love (Pana Dora) doesn’t smell hugely similar, but Tygar reminds me of FL if they forgot to add half the ingredients

Roja citrus perfumes aren’t very similar either
But I found Burlington 1819 and Isola Blu all WAY more pleasant scents, made at higher quality and with more interesting dna

8/10 - a good perfume but simply not as good as competitors

A long lasting, people pleasing, luxurious fresh fragrance.
It smells (very) pleasing, the best way i could describe this perfume is a: Fresh & candied orange with a very high concentration of Ambrox of very good quality and small dose of woods.

I like to wear it when it's sunny but not too hot outside (as the ambroxan can be a little overwhelming in the high heat).

It projects like a monster and the longevity is out of this world for a fresh fragrance, i wore it a couple days ago, i got complimented over ten hours after applying and was told that it smells strong so...

It's simplicty makes it very pleasing, but for 340€ it's a bit high of a price for such a simple formula it's not refillable like the LVs and it's 100ml, a fair price for this perfume would be 260€+- (same prices as Dior & Louis Vuitton perfumes)

simple, elegant and addictive
Right amount of ambroxan addddicccctiveee musky citrusy fresh scent i love it. Cannot stop smelling it nothing comes close. People think this is similar with LV- L'immensité but LV is much rounder and if i had to describe it i would say L'immensite reminds me a 20-28 age group man who enjoys his BMW and goes to the gym smells clean fresh, good looking. Bulgari Tygar on the other hand is BUSINESS... a man who has done it has a big family. Drives his Mercedes S- Class. Not playful its more mature, classy and SHARP.

The Grapefruit King
This is the best fresh scent Ive ever smelled. It’s bright, its clean, uplifting, and smells like a grapefruit exploded. Overall scent wise this is what a fresh everyday scent should be. Its like Blu de Chanel but way brighter

Now the only issue is I wish it lasted longer. Its a bug 4.2oz bottle so you can just respray it. You can always get Turathi Blue as a dupe. Lasts just as ling but its cheaper. Or get Sospiro Vibrato which is a more beast mode version of this DNA that lasts (and most people prefer)

The fact this fragrance has inspired versions of itself speaks to how good it is. Masterpiece Fresh Fragrance right here

I’m surprised by the high rating of this scent, to me it smells like any Big Brand generic, like Boss or Lacoste. The price is ridiculous.

Not to sound contrarian, but the grapefruit note here is a touch too hazy, sweet, blunted by ambroxan. I prefer crisper interpretations. Ugh

Fresh grapefruit with some sweetness and spiciness in the opening. A smooth, creamy and woody Ambroxan in the base. Modern scent for Spring.

Stellar summer citrus/grapefruit blend grounded by the ginger. Not enough differentiation from dupes to justify the cost
