Type in front of the washing machine
Hey you there!
Yes you, exactly you!
Are you tired of those old detergents with flowers and roses?
Not your world at all?
Are you more like the rooster in front of the helpful washing machine?
A bit of a muscle poser between the pre-wash and main wash?
Preferably at a fresh 60°C?

Then let me pull out a black bottle...

Fizz!

My dear goodness, this is white musk in a gentlemanly style!

Well, does it tickle in your nose?
So greenish spicy?

Boy, oh boy, this black Jacob really gets straight to the point.
Citrus cleaner like never before.
Here, one knows how to help oneself, as cardamom and juniper will mark the laundry room in a chitinous green. Your territory!

But don’t worry, the punch effect is somewhat softened by the listed spices, especially the star anise. This goes quite well with the balsamic elemi resin and a peculiar orange blossom, which mimics the scents from the main wash.

Well, buddy, are you already setting the iron to level three?
Cistus and vetiver make the iron steam nicely, right?

Your followers will be thrilled, such a wobbly dachshund butt on the appropriate platform comes to you with the smoky woods and slightly dirty earth of the base so naturally, as if you had been sucking on rumba rhythms with your pacifier.

But watch out, my dear, don’t forget the iron on the laundry for too long, or patchouli and oud imitation will fill the place with smoke!
Now that’s what I call a sporty round of washing dirty laundry.

I can already hear the screams when you dress your alabaster body again.
But as a content creator, you can easily let a catfish in a tight shirt and snug pants waft around with aromatic, freshly washed woods; your audience will love it!

Mr. Clean was yesterday.

Be the black-intensive Jacob!

I say YES to COMO ;-)
So here it is, the successor to Jacomo for Men, which unfortunately is far too unknown
even here on Parfumo. The predecessor is a really great fragrance. It has since been
discontinued, but can still be found online here and there. Its Achilles' heel
was unfortunately the weak longevity and sillage.
Now there is an Intense version, but with a completely different fragrance pyramid.
A nice Parfumo user pointed out to me that Jacomo is sending out samples.
Since the fragrance unfortunately has not yet been released in Germany, I wrote an email
directly to Jacomo in France and lo and behold, a week later I had the sample in
my mailbox :-)
I was very curious to see what the fragrance would be like and whether the H&S had been adjusted.
To cut to the chase: The sillage and longevity are really better. I am very
satisfied with it. It lasts about 7-8 hours on my skin and projects well.
The fragrance itself is damn great!
You mainly smell something citrusy in the top note, mixed with cinnamon and nutmeg.
Delicious! I'm telling you!
Later, the orange blossom and a slight anise note join in. The whole thing is
underlined with woodiness. Really well done.
A fragrance where you constantly have your wrist in your face... you know what I mean ;-)

The bottle is like the original, just in black... a real eye-catcher.
Heavy glass and a high-quality metal cap.
The fragrance is best suited for autumn/winter, but also in the evenings during spring
and summer when the temperature has dropped a bit.
If you want to test it too, then write an email directly to Jacomo.com, or
wait until it is released in Germany.
The wait is definitely worth it.
A really great fragrance that could be a hit with the right marketing...

Here is the fragrance pyramid from the internet:
Top: Cedar, Pepper, Pineapple Leaf
Heart: Coffee, Nutmeg, Plum
Base: Tonka, Amber, Vetiver

Can it still remain a hidden gem?
I’ll try something: so far, this Eau de Parfum is still completely unknown. At least in our latitudes. Yet it offers tremendous potential to shoot through the roof. Let’s see if we can get something moving here.

Perhaps the top note with its citrusy-bergamot opening is relatively conventional and doesn’t captivate you right away. But at the latest, when cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom sneak in as a sweet-spicy trio and blend with the balanced hint of refreshing orange blossoms, it could be game over for some.

It’s almost like taking the spicier version of Wrigley’s “Juicy Fruit” and a sliver of “Red Band” along with half an orange “Tic Tac” all at once - in a gustatory sense, of course.

The fragrance feels overall uncomplicated, yet not entirely simple - like a brilliantly produced pop song that meanders into your ears, making you think how simple it is, only to secretly realize there’s a bit more behind it.

Because even what seems to be stated and perhaps remains hidden makes sense overall. Spicy, fruity, sweet, floral, fresh, woody are its attributes with a slight twist into the gourmand - and all of it quite masculine!

Thus, Jacomo for Men Intense simply radiates heaps of good mood and ultimately makes it a universal go-to fragrance that can be worn regardless of seasons and times of day, moods, and life situations. Well, maybe more when the sun is shining in the sky and in the heart, but I would just as well spray it on rainy days as a mood lifter.

I can congratulate the perfumer Vincent Ricord for truly creating something appealingly unique, even if the fragrance remains rather straightforward and doesn’t allow for big twists. On the other hand, this means that despite generous longevity, one shouldn’t have too high expectations for the base notes.

Anyone who feels addressed so far is welcome to take a sniff, because this Jacomo is still a hidden gem, and it shouldn’t remain that way. After all, it truly deserves to be shared with the world.

Is it good or just average?
I had high expectations for this blind buy based on the comments and statements. I really enjoy buying blind! It's always exciting to experience how different subjective perceptions can be. I never really encounter complete rubbish, as I can trust the significantly better noses here. The anticipation for this Jakob was enormous!
I tore open the package right away and applied it to my wrist. I was just out doing the weekly shopping with my frail mother and held my wrist right under her nose!
"Smell a new one!"
"Fragrance? Good toilet spray!"
Well, my mother isn't exactly a fragrance expert. However, she is a grateful recipient of my cheapies, which I find too boring. In her assisted living unit, she currently always appears in a cloud of Hash Intense. And that with a parrot shirt and at 74. Love my Mamicka!
In this case, I have to agree with her! The top note is really fucking toilet spray! You can't imagine! Synthetic bergamot.
This house spray note lasts about an hour. And you have to endure that.
A sensitive nose will throw in the towel after a maximum of 20 minutes and probably disappear for an hour in the shower. Then pour half a bottle of Bentley Intense over it to compensate and get drunk on rubbing alcohol.
Thank goodness my nose isn't sensitive!
The best of Jakob actually comes after an hour. Muted sandalwood and cedar! On a bed of orange blossoms and patchouli. Unfortunately, unfortunately, without strength. Now, of course, a sensitive nose could pick up a lot... But those sensitive noses are now completely overwhelmed with rubbing alcohol in the corner and are being treated by the emergency doctor..
For me and my nose, it's simply too little. Almost unnoticeable after 2 hours.
For that, I don't need a fragrance. Out of respect for the grandiose namesake from the same house, I will still gather reactions from other noses and possibly expand my comment. Speaking of Jacomo by Jacomo: this one has nothing in common with him except for the name. Please don't be misled into thinking Jacomo Intense would be a stronger continuation. It's a completely different fragrance DNA.
Yes, and only because of the grandiose father will I give Jacomo Intense another chance.
I can always wear it because I can't smell anything after 2 hours anyway...

It's a shame you overlook me…
I know that I am a wallflower. One of those quiet beings in the land. Most people overlook me, … but why actually? Because my siblings are more attractive than I am? Because they can sell themselves better and shout louder: Here!? It just embarrasses me to have to praise and promote myself… that doesn’t match my character…

There is one who has recognized my inner self, who likes me just as I am. Namely, not “sweet,” but straightforward and with edges and corners. I can also be quite rough, unrefined, if you will. But I am genuine and not deceitful. I would never pretend to be what I am not.

Maybe you want to bring me out of the shadows and get to know me? I hope to surprise you with my inner self, which smells of cinnamon and wood and mirabelle, enriching your presence with lastingness all day long.

It doesn't really have much in common with the classic Jacomo. But this blend of cinnamon and orange blossom radiates something positive.

Freed from soot, dressed in a fresh outfit, and enhanced with subtle sweetness, the transformation of the original version is truly successful.

Now that's what I call a real insider tip. Fruity - spicy, initially conventional and then completely different. A confident companion!

After the first test, it already seems heavy and soulless. Cloyingly chemical, disappointing! Never again blind buys.. maybe .. as if .. shaking my head.
