Typical 80's masculine scent although unique due to cloves
Jacomo de Jacomo is a typical 80's style masculine fragrance. What I found unique about it is the cloves note which hangs around pretty much for the entire life of the scent. The clove note isn't overpowering or Christmas-y like those cinnamon-clove pine cones sold around the holidays. In fact, I wouldn't have minded had the cloves been a tad stronger. Also has the expected oak moss & patch component that is so good in the classic fragrances from that time. It also has a touch of cigarette ashtray, but very subtle. Nowhere near as strong as with Quorum. The only downer with Jacomo is that the longevity isn't that great. After about 5 hours, all you're left with is a pretty close skin scent. Projection is also average after about an hour. I'll still hold on to my bottle because it is a pretty unique scent and I can always respray as needed.
