Another fantastic fragrance from Montblanc. I have owned the original Starwalker for quite some time, in fact it’s probably one of my best ever blind buys. I can say the Extreme is nothing like the original but I cant blame Montblanc for wanting to use such a stellar name like “Starwalker” for another one of their fragrances. Starwalker Extreme to me smells a lot like the original Coach for men with a tiny bit of Chanel’s Allure Homme Sport Eau Extreme in the background. I am not mad at it one bit, this is an extremely good fragrance in my opinion and the notes all blend together extremely well creating a slightly sweet fruity creamy fragrance. The performance is also fairly decent. I have a feeling the bottles that are left of this are slowly dwindling down and this one will be quite hard to find eventually. I am very happy to own it as well as a back up bottle.

Alright, to whomever is in these reviews trying to decide if they should purchase Missoni Wave or not I will give you the best information I can possible. I own both Chanel Allure Homme Sport and Versace Pour Homme and love them both to death, in fact they are two of my favorite fragrances and have been a very long time.. Missoni Wave doesn’t smell identical to either of them but that’s not to be expected. What it does do is its own sort of thing while taking a fair bit of inspiration from both of its main predecessors. Wave does start off a bit screechy synthetic and will slightly be almost off putting from the first initial sprays. Some of that will go away with maturing and also it will slowly start to go away into the dry down. Once this fragrance settles down a bit you’re left with a very charming creamy citrus slightly floral fragrance perfect for warm weather. I would have to say Wave is a bit more comparable to Chanel Allure Homme Sport as it has that creaminess aspect to it that Versace Pour Homme does not. What Wave does have that favors Versace Pour Homme is that floral aspect introducing itself in the background. My verdict is for the price point this fragrance is 100% well worth it. If you like it’s Chanel or Versace predecessor’s very well then there’s a good chance you will enjoy Wave. It takes a little inspiration from both but like I mentioned above it’s creaminess aura makes it lean stronger in the Chanel direction. The longevity and projection on Wave are also good considering it’s DNA and price, I have always gotten 4-7 hours of longevity with 5-8 sprays and about a foot and half of projection. Take the chance on this one and ride the Wave!

Ero’s Energy does what it’s supposed to do extremely well. As the name suggests it is bright, zingy and bold. This is exactly what a through and through citrus dominant fragrance should be. Right out of the gate you’re met with a refreshing burst of all the citrus top notes. You can smell them all forming together creating that energetic, bright and zingy opening. As it slowly starts to dry down all of the citrus notes start to intertwine with traces of the black currant and amber while there is a slight tinge of spice from the pepper. As time keeps rolling on the oak moss blends right in nicely with the black currant and the continuing blast from the citrus medley. I see so many linear comments about it just being “lemon” but it’s much more than that and should be appreciated for what it’s supposed to be. This is a hot weather beauty and is so uplifting and captivating.

In my opinion this is actually a wonderful Aventus clone especially given its extremely affordable price. I think this is much better than the most popular clone which is Club De Nuit Intense Man. If you come across this fragrance definitely give it a shot if you haven’t already. I must say the performance is good too.

This is a newer fragrance from Kenneth Cole and what can I say? I am very impressed with this one. This is actually quite similar to Bleu De Chanel. I tested both on strips side by side and I must say Kenneth Cole did a wonderful job. Now Bleu De Chanel does smell more quality and has more depth but overall Moonlight Blue portrays it quite nicely especially given the very affordable price. Performance is actually pretty decent as well. If you’re looking for something that smells like Bleu De Chanel but can’t or don’t want to spend the money give Moonlight Blue a try.
