The Middle Path of Robert C.
Ordered together with Just Cavalli Blue as a set of 2, since I already liked Black. And I also like Blue in its naive-cheap way just enough. A big thank you to Mr. Apicius for such tips; you can always rely on his opinion, an absolute role model! What about Him?

It's a simplistic blend of Black and Blue, pretty much exactly in the middle. I have the 60 ml versions of Blue and Him, and the 100 ml of Black. Him is not bad, but far from outstanding. It's straightforward, flat, and unremarkable; moreover, the ugliest Cavalli bottle is extremely off-putting and brings down the associations with the scent. But it's not unpleasant and certainly doesn't stand out badly. I think it hardly stands out at all; I would love to know if anyone has received compliments on it. I can hardly imagine it.

The bottle is terrible, and even the colors don't match like with Blue. The sillage is in the middle range, right between the two brothers. It's well-suited for the office and the beginning of summer. The longevity should be around 6-7 hours, but unfortunately, my nose got used to the scent after 3 hours and I could hardly perceive it anymore. But I am sure it was still there a bit longer.

The middle ground of extreme citrus freshness and light flowers and spices is uncomplicated and okay, but I prefer the two that choose a direction. At first, there’s a bit of bergamot, mixed with rosemary. I had no idea how rosemary smells before, but I researched, and that’s probably it. I could have guessed lavender or something like that. In any case, it’s a pleasant, soft spice that contrasts with the citrus and gives the scent a more masculine, everyday power. Then it goes into the floral direction, more towards bitter flowers like roses, which I actually like less. In the end, the flowers grow into real trees, and a frequently seen wood-musk base emerges.

Overall, Black plays in a higher league than Blue, and I find it a bit more pleasing than Him. You don’t necessarily need all three, but I also don’t urgently want to get rid of them from my collection. If I had to choose, it would definitely be Black!

A Price Tip for Summer
Just Cavalli Him is a beautiful and uncomplicated fresh-citrusy men’s fragrance.

Upon spraying, this scent direction is immediately present, albeit altered. You can sense more than just the lemon, but you can't quite pinpoint what it is. Only when looking at the pyramid do you realize it - Just Cavalli Him has a distinct rosemary note. Not the pitiful dried rosemary from the spice rack, but a towering bush under the Mediterranean sun. You can clearly smell the essential oil of the rosemary.

After a while, something floral joins in, but not too much: the geranium. Geranium has nothing to do with geraniums. It is derived from a type of pelargonium. Its scent is mostly rose-like. It is a common alternative to expensive rose oils. Then, a bit of spice and some woodiness become noticeable, but not dominant. However, the rosemary note from the beginning fades quite quickly. Now the scent is floral-citrusy and remains so. I wouldn’t pay too much attention to the impressive further details of the pyramid. They suggest a complexity that isn’t really there. For example, I didn’t notice any iris.

I have worn Just Cavalli Him on various occasions. It is a fresh, light, and subtle office and summer scent. The Cavalli fragrances are readily available in southern Germany at Müller drugstores, where they are positioned at the lower end of the mid-price segment. The current price of around €30 for 60 ml is okay. I find Just Cavalli Him a good alternative to more expensive and stylish aquatics and citrus summer fragrances; it doesn’t need to hide at all. Just Cavalli Him is not overly scratchy, although one must expect cheaper ingredients in this category. I have a slight suspicion that this perfume dulls the wearer’s sense of smell after a while. Other fragrance reviews elsewhere have reported this as well. In any case, I won’t be tempted to reapply. In this respect, there is a resemblance to the price breaker Tabac Original.

The presentation of this fragrance is peculiar. It comes tightly sealed in a rectangular, semi-transparent, and cheap-looking plastic box the size of a cigarette pack. Strange graphic ornaments in ochre and purple are printed on it. Quite ugly and off-putting. There is no particular statement or style direction to be recognized. They could have just written “Yes” on it, but I believe that brand exists elsewhere…

Really fresh scent. I think the performance ain't that bad than what is stated on Parfumo but guess that it is because of subjective matters

Fresh and aromatic, it's a good and easy to wear scent I liked immediately when I tested on the strip and on my man's skin.Recommended.

Unbearably synthetic, not worth 10 euros. I smell an undefinable herb mishmash from the lab.
