Review (4/5): Two 5 STAR and Two 4 STAR Fragrances- some are sure to please every man
English Laundry Men's 4 Piece 20ml Coffret is a truly wonderful men’s cologne set. You are getting four fragrances- rated 4 and 5 STARS all in one box. The fragrances rated by me are based on my years spent working in a cosmetic factory. I will list each fragrance separately.
ARROGANT- With top notes of bergamot and cedar you get a woodsy freshness to the scent. The middle notes of coriander and lavender bring a warm, clean freshness. At the base are sandalwood, amber and musk bringing a warm, sensual, spicy scent. All together, you get a spicy, warm, woodsy scent with a distinctive freshness to it. This light, sensual scent lasts all day and smells wonderful on almost every man, so 5 STARS.
OXFORD BLEU- The top notes of mint and lemon add a citrus freshness. The middle notes of iris and geranium bring a very light floral scent. The base adds sandalwood and vanilla for a woodsy delicious scent. All together, this scent is light, with an undertone bit of floral and clean citrus and a nice light woodsy smell. This light, woodsy fragrance smells fabulous on almost every man and does last long for 5 STARS.
RIVIERA- With top notes of lemon, bergamot, lime and cedar, you get a refreshing citrus/woods scent. In the middle are jasmine, patchouli, vetiver, lavender and mandarin- most of these were used in the 60's sexy, warm, earthy scents. At the base notes are nutmeg and coumarin to add some spice. This is not for every man, but for a man who likes a more vibrant scent. These scents are very noticeable and not light, being a very woodsy, earthy, warm fragrance with a touch of zest. 4 STARS.
NOTTING HILL- The top notes begin with bergamot, lemon and lime for a clean, natural scent. Then the middle notes have bolder peppercorn and jasmine bringing a rose/herbal scent. At the bottom are cedarwood, sandalwood, amber and a powdery musk for a very potent woodsy, animal musky scent. This is definitely not for every man being very heavy scents. There is nothing light about this fragrance. 4 STARS.
With four interesting fragrances, two being light and two being heavy, every man is sure to find one he will like. Lighter scents always smell wonderful on almost every man and the bolder scents smell great on a man depending on how his chemistry goes with the bolder fragrances. 4 ½ STARS.
