A Vital, Sweetly-Aromatic Fougère
The opening presents itself as bitter-herb and develops into a sweet-bitter, dark leather accord with aromatic spices. This impression is extraordinary, edgy, and interesting.
In addition, a newly interpreted aromatic fougère emerges. Above it lies a hint of fruit-floral framed sweetness, accompanied by subtle notes of smoke and tar.
During the first use of the bottle, these notes were distinctly more pronounced and distinguishable from one another. In the subsequent uses, everything condenses into a compact fougère composition that is more recognizable and direct as such. It appears more classic, with the sweetness and bitterness muted. The drydown increasingly presents itself as floral. Meanwhile, the leather notes and fruitiness submit to the aromatic and spiciness. The conclusion consists of blue shower gel fruits alternating with finely crafted synthetic soap.

I can imagine "Connect Him," due to its relatively dark aura, for the evening or during cooler seasons. If it were a bit more upscale, it could also work for a date, a dinner, or occasions where an overwhelming sillage is unnecessary.

Those with an affinity for classic scents, industrial or mechanical smells, as well as classic leather, might find an interesting experience here.

It is noticeable that while the execution of the fragrance leaves a less premium impression, it still represents a significant improvement over its predecessor "FCUK Him." The longevity is low for both.
For ambitious perfumistas, this average quality might ultimately be decisive in seeing no further use for this perfume. In the context of the low price point, this can be overlooked. Ultimately, I sympathize with "Connect Him" for its reference to classic fragrance ideas and its endearing awkwardness. It is remarkable that FCUK dared to launch a release in 2007 that strays from its target audience and is so inspired by classic fragrances.

Blind Purchase
I like the FCUK him. I had ordered this one with the addition "Connect" blindly, as it was quite cheap in the sale.

It is thick, leathery, penetrating. Imagine opening the 70-year-old leather toiletry bag of an even older gentleman, in which aftershave has spilled more than once, and taking a whiff of it.

Unbearable. Still, it always stays in my memory as my first bad blind purchase experience. It can't go well forever.

Gentle, aromatic Fougere of the modern generation, with a floral twist. Pleasantly dark. Unusual to release something like this in 2007
