Intense B140408 Eau de Parfum, 3.4 Fluid Ounce

One of the best colognes I have ever smelled! Very masculine and the scent lasts forever!

Unbeatable for the price, very "rum" scent

I'm very surprised to see so much positivity for this scent. To be clear: it's not bad. In fact, it's clearly very good, it's just the type of scent I thought went out of style in the 1970s with the advent of the musk and sandalwood forward hyper-masculine orientals. Bay rum scents are the kind of splashes your grandfather would wear, if you grew up in the 1970s. Or the 1770s... Still, they are always popular amongst the wetshaving community, so i suppose it was only time that this scent profile would get retooled for the larger fragrance market. Now, I am a fan of Nathalie Lorson. She made one of my absolute favorite scents with Encre Noire a l'extreme.. and though this is very well made and balanced (more so than the new iteration of Royall Bayrhum 57 for example), it's just a bit underwhelming to me. What this adds to a simple bay rum profile is nice: There's a good kick of pepper in the opening which dries almost immediately to more woody goodness. This will stick around for awhile along with the clary sage, giving almost barbershop vibes every once and awhile. There is (to my nose) a dark powdery note enhancing this effect. Maybe the incense? The benzoin, cedar and patchouli are noticeable to me and make for a great base that I really love. In fact, The drydown of this fragrance, i must say, is phenomenal. This is heavier than most bay rum scents and will last a fair amount of time. It's not a sillage monster, nor does it last forever, but by the time it is a skin scent, it is delicious. Ask me next month and i may be addicted, but for me right now, this is a staple scent i wouldn't wear in a formal setting. For a night out or a day exploring, it's perfect. I love amber-benzoin fragrances and this fits somewhere between the really oriental Moustache EDP and the far more aromatic Bijan. I just find myself reaching for those more.

At first It was a NO now after sitting a bit its good, and boozy one dimensional but goes well in the winter months

Best way I can describe it, it smells like you are putting fresh sappy tree branches into a woodchipper, then adding some smoke and spice to it. Price for value is amazing. I like it because it smells good, but it is not some crazy attractive smell. I am 42 and I just like to smell good. Like other post say, it is a strong smell, but for me it only seems to last about 4-5 hours. I do two sprays on the chest. If you spray it on your clothes, it is very strong and last a really long time (It bothers some people though). I think it is better suited for Men than Women. Personally, I like the smell right when you spray it. Then give it 10 minutes and it is perfect. If I sweat, I noticed I have to use more. Chilly days here in CA do not seem to bother it.

How to describe it? Well, it does have a unique expensive smell to it. But it’s more like a high cost fragrance that you wonder why they would make something so stinky? Like something Tom Ford might come out with, but it never sells compared to their flagship fragrances. I would say this is a little bit on the weak side for EDP concentration, it lasts about as long as most EDTs last on my skin. Which is to say - not exceptionally concentrated. It’s very woody, very musky, although the stale moldy smell fades with time. It’s not not a top choice for me. It would be better for winter time, not summer. I wish I could return it.

Best cologne i ever use 100% what i expected

Great value and smells fantastic. BENTLY cologne has an earthy smell. I keep it on hand all the time

Ce parfum reste mon favoris depuis des années.

Very good perfume it lasts in skin for a whole day.worth buying...

jeden z moich ulubionych perfum! dobre męskie nuty, jakby kto zapalił cygara, oblał się kompotem z wędzonych śliwek i tekilką. Plus do tego intensywna mięta

The product is as described, it lasts long like 8-9 hrs on skin only, the base and middle notes are the strongest, I really love the middle notes, this basically smells to me like an aromatic blend of spices and rum. It’s a sweet smell overall with a punch, you won’t be disappointed plus it’s reasonably priced most of the time. Define lay an autumn winter vibe with this one.
