1974, Wall Street, shortly before 9 a.m. on a Tuesday: I'm frantically looking for a cab, I'm running extremely late. Ah, there it is. I'm sitting in it shortly afterwards. Surrounded by skyscrapers to the left and right. A new trading day is about to start on the stock exchange. As a broker, I have to give my all again to be faster than everyone else, to earn more and more money with shares. There's always a hint of the perfume I sprayed on this morning. ARAMIS 900, which suits this job and this decade better than any other I know. The trading bell rings again, this time at the close. The day was okay, but there have been much better ones. Exhausted from the day, I wash the sweat off my face and look in the mirror: brown suit, American cut, Oxford shoes and my hair slicked back. Hm, and what do I still smell? ARAMIS 900. 8 hours later and with a potent aura.

I would compare the fragrance less to Wolf of Wall Street and Leonardo DiCaprio and more to something more serious like Wall Street and Charlie Sheen. Not a fragrance for parties or the beach. Chyphre classics at their finest. The rose mixed with the patchouli hits it straight and hard. Lemon and the animal civet can be smelled in the background. It ends with green notes. Not for little boys. This one is for grown-ups in suits who want to earn money.

Before I really immersed myself in the world of fragrances, this was one of my perfumes of 2016. Of course, I wouldn't wear it nowadays, it's far too synthetic and sweet, just like an AXE body spray smells. The EDT version with the "classier" name Tobacco & Amber stays on the skin a little longer. Nothing you could praise. In terms of smell, you get what it says on the tin, just tobacco and amber with a lighter freshness, but in the purest, most synthetic form. BUT I have really only received compliments on the fragrance over and over again, but unfortunately not on me, rather on how good it smells in my car. Because I have to admit, when the time came with higher quality designers, the fragrance was unfortunately unwearable for me and it ended up in my car. There it was perfect as a car fragrance. 10 sprays a week on the floor mats and the car smelled extremely good for a week. Cheaper and better than any car perfume. So it has found a place in my heart after all.

I might be the first commentator on this perfume...

I received this scent as a Christmas gift from my girlfriend. Unwrapped the gift. I was first happy that she thought of my love for perfumes and then sprayed it on my wrist.

A little side note: She told me before unwrapping that it was a blind buy.
And so she ordered it on my favorite site with N.

It's quite a challenge to open this bottle. As you can see in the pictures here, the cap is not exactly the best and the bottle is certainly not the prettiest.

Before I smelled it, I first extended my arm to her. Her first response with wide eyes was "sorry."

The second person who then had wide eyes... was me. So wrist to the nose and sniff.

What struck me immediately was a terrible citrus synthetic note, but I said to myself that I would give the scent time to develop. And that time was well spent! After unwrapping her gift (about half an hour later), I thought about the perfume on my wrist and smelled it again. Uhhh the synthetic note had vanished, what remained was an aquatic note paired with green apple. Now I really liked it, so fresh! It has that barber note that I always enjoy after getting a haircut. Great fruit.
Very nice to wear in summer and spring.

The longevity of my friend is good for a fresh scent. It lasts about 4 hours, which is noticeable to those around me, and then up to 8 hours close to the skin.

In terms of price, it has the nice affordable Jaguar prices that don't hurt the wallet, even if the perfume isn't very liked.

In conclusion, I can say that I am glad to have this in my collection now. Otherwise, I probably would have never had it on my radar. Definitely worth a try!

I don't quite understand all the negative comments about this fragrance. One of the best when it comes to performance. Best worn in winter, 2 sprays and you feel about 4-5 degrees warmer right away. Women also have no problem with it; in fact, several have said that they prefer to smell it on me. And since it gives off a certain warmth, women love to be close to you in winter. Longevity easily lasts up to 8 hours, not a work fragrance, but since my colleague likes it so much, there's still some in the office :D. Sillage is also noticeable at a very good distance. My favorite fragrance for winter. Christmas market = top. And at this price, you can't go wrong. Please don't hate too much, this was my first comment.
