"Old school" barbershop with good mood guarantee
Dunhill Icon is a great office fragrance for warm weather, but I'm only slowly falling in love with it. In the opening, it starts with a light citrus note that reminds me of 4711, and then quickly evolves into a neroli scent. It reminds me a bit of Tom Ford's Grey Vetiver, only a bit better for me, as I don't find it so "old" and it's rather gentle. The strongest notes I can smell are neroli, pepper, vetiver, lavender, leather and very little wood (it's supposed to be oud, but I can't tell which).
Dunhill Icon is for me a fragrance for spring, summer and autumn, but the best time is spring. He stays about 7 hours with me, which is absolutely ok for me. This is a safe choice for the office. Icon is my favorite among the vetiver scents.
A colleague who noticed the scent at my place remembered the scent from a barber shop in the 70-80s. It's a bit "old school", except that it has a modern touch due to the peppery background and a light lavender.
When I wear Icon, the fragrance puts me in a good mood and gives me self-confidence. For the price, it would be a mistake not to buy this fragrance. I don't need to mention the ingenious bottle here. It's the only one of my fragrances that stands in the living room and at the same time it's a small art object.

Not Halloween but Starbucks Dream
The opening is mainstream, the special thing about this fragrance is the heart note that develops slowly after 15 minutes. What I love here is the roasted coffee bean scent, combined with a leather note and some whisky. The leather is restrained, very fine. I don't smell cinnamon.
The durability is with me about 7 hours, the Sillage is good, at least one arm length with 2-3 sprays, he projects at least 2 hours. It is a fragrance for autumn, winter and for spring evenings, which one smells quite rarely, a fragrance that is something special. With the favourable price a clear purchase for me.
