    Solid scent but I already found one flaw.... longevity and projection...come on buddy!!

      Definitely a huge drawback for a good scent. Good thing the bottle is sexy lol

      robes08 yes definitely them two points. The smell itself is pretty good. I suppose with the aftershave balm and shower gel the smell is likely to stay on a bit longer. My go to winter fragrance this winter in the UK. I got the 100ml set for 65.00 pounds last year

    I really enjoy this one but the performance is worse than Versace Oud Noir less than 3 hours.

    This is my absolute favorite fragrance of all time ! There is just something about it that makes me want to wear it constantly and make it my signature but unfortunately for the performance being so poor I can’t . Robes help me out ! What’s out there that is extremely close to this and gets way better performance? Love your videos to man !

    I bought one about two days ago -before eid- when i smelled it at the store it was gorgeous once i came home and i smelled it it was like Pine scented air freshener
    Once I heard the review it deferred i smelled exactly what you said
    And yes it leaves very quick ❤

    Yesss about time you tried this out. Love this stuff but its performance and longevity is worse than that of D&G The One. Otherwise, I'd have added it to my collection by now.

    Very solid and informative review. The only fragrances I’ve tried from Dunhill are Desire and Desire Silver. I thought they were ok, but not for me.

    I like all 3 bottles. The scents are all nice too however I think I like the gold, silver, black in that order but all are nice. I get better wear on my clothes with moderate projection and longevity but on skin it fizzles in about 3 hours.

    Nice take on this fragrance. I have the entire line (Icon, Elite and Absolute) and, while I am not one to go ga-ga over a bottle or presentation, these are gorgeous and manly as hell. Love 'em! Personally, I like Icon but cannot understand why it gets so much love in the fragrance community - it's okay. I actually prefer Elite and Absolute over Icon...nothing mind-blowing, just solid designer releases that aren't run-of-the-mill, only wish they would perform A LOT better.
    Anyway, I'm hoping to put my mitts on Racine whenever it's available in my neck of the woods. Enjoyed!

      I have it coming in the mail as well. I would love to now your opinion on it. I love the blend line.

    I love the opening and it’s gone after 30 minutes + - but I love the bottle. At 38 bucks it’s worth.

    No idea why they mention rose, bergamot, and jasmine? There are none of these in Dunhill Icon Absolute.

      Hopefully when the cooler months come a review will be released.

    These frags wear best in spring and fall. Why do you guys always assume oud is for winter? Geesh, especially any of the western designer ouds.😐

    • @robes08
      @robes08  6 років тому +3

      not assumed, just wearing it during winter since it's winter.

    This is an Oud Wood clone to my nose. Poor projection and longevity for me though.

      Thank you. I got that impression right away. Freaking love the bottles. Icon is magic, want to get Racing next! Only at NM that I have found here in LA.

    Weak. Weak. Weak. I blind bought it, got it yesterday, sprayed liberally. It lasted about an hour, became an ok (at best) skin scent after that. Selling it today.
    Very little oud, very little kick, very little projection, little to no sillage, next to no longeveity.
