Fresh, fruity and only slightly synthetic...

Pleasant and inoffensive. The middle part is constructed around herbs (sage or tarragon?) and a mild cedar while the base is built around musk and light woods.
You should note that there's no comparison to the saffron bomb of the original Versace Man, this one comes off as a clean citrus fragrance with a hint of apples in the opening. I feel a certain sweetness lurking in the back, almost like some vanilla notes peeping out at times. If you're into Nautica Voyage, this may be right up your alley as well. There's also a hint of the "dryer sheet" background like in e.g. Montblanc Individuel.

Definitely a summer scent, and I'd say mostly aimed at young carefree gents maybe due to the sweeter background. Actually it's a great all-rounder, could be used for formal wear with a shirt and suit, but also casually with a t-shirt and shorts. I used to be very fond of this one in the summertime, but the sweet background has landed it on a "meh" spot for me after using it through two summers - maybe I'm just a little too old?

Overall the smell is very nice and longevity not too bad, I usually catch 4-6 hours of projection from this one.
