Very nice Hacivat flanker

This is a combined review of Hacivat and Hacivat X which I tested from samples on consecutive days and also compared directly. I've never tried Adventus, so can't compare these to it. I do have and enjoy Montblanc Explorer.

Hacivat is a really nice, strong and masculine fragrance with a great pineapple-citrusy opening. The dry down does have some subtle old school vibes with the oak moss and woody accord. Hacivat strikes me as much smoother and less woody than Hacivat X and Explorer. Overall scent is people pleasing and is a definite versatile easy grab for most any occasion. Longevity is very good with strong sillage.

On to Hacivat X. The major different between it and the OG is that X has a much more pronounced woody accord, the pineapple/citrusy opening is not as prominent and X comes across as sharper or less smooth. The OG seems a bit sweeter than X. I'd also say that Hacivat X is closer to Explorer, although Explorer is even sharper and more woody. X is also a very masculine fragrance (perhaps more so than the OG) with the same great performance as the OG.

In the final analysis, Hacivat and Hacivat X are both great fragrances, so it just comes down to personal choice on which you'd prefer. My preference leans towards the OG and it isn't redundant seeing that I also have Explorer (they don't smell alike). Hacivat X would be redundant since it's much closer to Explorer. My recommendation would be to start with Hacivat. If you want something woodier, go with Hacivat X.

Hacibaba X

Hacivat X
Like the og opens op with pineapple and citrus and you get that oakmossy vibe only this time it’s like a smoky vetiver. like smokey birch style like oakmoss. This time the pineapple is accompanied with a lime note making it a touch sweeter and more creamy i think because of the lime and maybe some jasmine or hedione touch. this for my first impresions is still like 85/90% like the og it smells very very nice. The legendary hacivat dna is still here. It’s hard to talk about perfomance because the samples spray so little it can’t be compared to a real bottle atomizer. But i think its good in the power department. Haci X dries down and keeps this creamy oakmossy vetiver while it lingers to softness. If you love the og you will also love this.

Excellent summer fragrance

I tried this at the store and had a good enough first impression of it that I decided to go for the bottle. On skin I feel it's fantastic, absolutely perfect summer fragrance. The pineapple I'd been told about is there but a little more subtle, a kind of lime/bergamot scent seems to take center stage instead. On the dry down it does take on more of a warm sweeter side I've come to associate with some other Nishane fragrances. Very happy to have this

It Is Good But A Lot is Missing

I am surprised that this is classified as "fruity" because I am definitely not getting fruit from this. I am also not picking up any of the floral notes. I would say this makes for a great chypre fragrance. The top is spicy with the pink pepper and a hint of bergamot. I maybe get a hit of the lime in the middle but it is easy to miss. Mostly, the Haitian vetiver dominates this scent from the start. Its little bit smoky and very woody. That paired with the sandalwood and patchouli just makes this scent very woody to me. Its good, just kinda disappointed that the other notes are lost. It lasted on my skin about 6 hours and projection was about 4.

Hacivat X I Wrong expectation + herd behavior + influencer = rather negative evaluation I RETHINK!

First, let me say that I have been using the traditional Hacivat for years and know the fragrance DNA very well; also the surrounding themes like Creed Aventus over several batches/years. Why do I start with this comment? Well, from my point of view, extremely many reviews have been too strongly based on false expectations - what does the community expect in a flanker?

- Had the performance been pushed up with even more oakmoss and ambrox, comments would have fluttered in like "Hacivat has brought out an elixir, little innovation, who needs more performance, would have expected more"
- If you had completely changed the fragrance DNA, it would have become yes no anniversary version, but a new line hidden under well-running brands; even here I see many opinions already coming

You see, no matter what the niche houses do, we always find reasons to criticize what was done and everyone with their personal expectations or even worse; the personal-other-influencers-influenced opinion.

The idea behind Hacivat X is from my point of view not to get closer to Aventus (sorry, but who knows Aventus batches, knows that even the Hacivat X has absolutely nothing to do with any Aventus batch), but to bring a more "mass suitable" variant of the Hacivat on the market, the

a) gives niche lovers enough "niche", but makes the fragrance more suitable for everyday use for Office etc

b) newcomers not the full edge oak moss gives; which is really challenging for many

On the fragrance itself, finally:
- I find that the Hacivat X is already similar to the forefather, the Hacivat . The additional bergamot takes out the already aggressive, rather pungent pineapple note in the Hacivat a little. The opening is in this respect not so "harsh", but far more round

- The drydown also seems to me more harmonious, rounder and a bit more floral. The big difference is that the base is now rather woody, slightly floral-fruity; the Hacivat balls here full edge oak moss and woods

- The H/S is really good, of course not as extreme as with the Hacivat, but we are talking about well above average projection and durability; do you really want to ball out 24h is the question. If you want to show that you have spent a bit of money and need the performance - well, then rather go for the Hacivat. But who is looking for a pleasant companion for everyday life, is very well served with the Hacivat X

- The price - well, at the beginning known high, much too high. I think the prices will adjust drastically once the fragrance is fully retail-ready, the ideal price point for the 100ML are in my view at 200-220.-

- Comments on sophistication; well, was the Hacivat really more sophisticated? It's far harsher, edgier. How do you even define sophistication? Roja has a high level of sophistication, but then that's where we complain about performance :)

Overall, a successful fragrance for me, and I can unfortunately not agree with many comments here. But that is also not my goal or mission, objectivity is much more important to me here. Just enjoy the scents, and let the fragrance affect you without thinking in any direction.
