A must-buy. It’s worth far more than its price; it’s a real gem.
Fantastic value for money, perfect for crisp mornings or chilly days. Dries down reminiscent of Asad but creamier, lighter, and more everyday. Smells more expensive than it is. The blend of coffee, balsam, and sandalwood is brilliant. I’d recommend it to men aged 25+ seeking elegance. 9/10 for price and quality.
Lovely scent! Lasts for several hours and I recommend it without hesitation. It’s sweet and balanced, nothing annoying. Smells like a much pricier fragrance. For the price, it’s excellent value and collectible.
Good perfume; reminds me of Halloween Man X due to the coffee note, ideal for winter and crisp days. PS: Edit – it’s VERY similar to Zara For Him Intense; anyone with both will confirm.
It’s a captivating and slightly addictive scent that invites you to wear a little on the wrist. It’s sweet, spiced, with the coffee note predominating. It reminds me a bit of Polo Red Extreme and Halloween Man X. If you like those fragrances, you’ll appreciate the Nike Urban Wood. Its longevity is more than acceptable, six hours on the skin, projecting quite a bit in the first hour. I use it in winter and especially at night; it performs very well in outdoor spaces. In enclosed spaces only in winter and taking care with the sprays. It’s one of my favourites in the line, I recommend it as a blind buy, and the risk of regretting it is very low given the price.
Captivating and addictive aroma, perfect for wearing on the wrist. Sweet, spicy, with coffee taking the lead. Reminds me of Polo Red Extreme and Halloween Man X. If you like those, you’ll appreciate Nike Urban Wood. Lasts over 6 hours on skin and projects strongly for the first hour. I wear it in winter and at night; works well outdoors, but indoors only in cold weather and with caution. One of my favourites in the line; buy blind with low risk.
I bought it for the price and the ratings after trying several of Nike’s, but I didn’t like it at all. It smells old and overly sweet, reminding me of some cheap perfume from the eighties. I can’t see anyone young wearing it.
Bought it for the price and reviews after trying several Nikes. I dislike it; it smells old and cloyingly sweet, like cheap perfumes from the 80s. I can’t imagine it on anyone young.
Opens citrusy then warms up to become spicy. Ideal for crisp autumn, winter, or night, but never in the cold with heat; it would be overwhelming. If you dislike sweet and warm scents, abstain. It has an almost gourmand sweetness but doesn’t become overpowering. The notes are very distinct, so despite being economical, it’s well-made. Citrus opening, moves to spicy, finishing with that sweet balsamic tone which is delightful in the cold. I recommend buying it, but start with the small bottle as it projects strongly. For me, longevity and projection aren’t bad; noticeable after hours. Edit: after wearing it regularly, it’s STUPENDOUS. At this price, I doubt I’ll find anything better. Edit again: the coffee note is addictive. I like this perfume; it’s exquisite and… 3€ for 30ml!
Excellent for autumn/spring, even cool summer evenings, but never in the heat. Although projection fades over time, you can’t ask for more at this price.
Economical yet well-constructed with decent quality. There are houses that make cheap fragrances without losing standards, even if they are inspirations (look at Arabian perfumery). Opens with a very measured citrus note then becomes spicy and aromatic with a subtle sweetness. I’m not sure what its original is; it could smell like another fragrance I don’t own. I bought it at a laughable price in 30ml, the ideal size for testing. Made in Spain. I see it as a daytime scent for autumn and winter. I will test its performance (I don’t notice projection), without great expectations. Next, I’ll try Nike The Perfume Man, which is said to have some Dolce & Gabbana. (Indeed, it’s skin-scented and I don’t think it lasts more than 6 hours to be generous. Good aroma, but short longevity.)
I have it by chance. Blessed chance! I love it. Intense and long-lasting scent, which is uncommon. You might call me crazy, but it smells like Interlude to me. A great fragrance at a very low price.
I got it by chance. Blessed chance! I love it. Intense and lasting scent, uncommon. You might call me crazy, but to me it has an air of Interlude. It’s certainly a great fragrance at a very low price.
I gifted this to my partner because it smells like Dior Sauvage Elixir but softer and fresher. While the original leaves a rich trail, this one clings closer to the skin. It also reminds me a bit of Armani He. It’s ideal for the gym if you like spiced scents but want to avoid soapy-smelling perfumes without spending a fortune, or for daily wear with plenty of punch.
To start, I think this is the best Nike fragrance out right now. The opening is potent and sweet, then floral and coffee notes emerge, before the base takes over where the musk shines (and I’d say vanilla too, even if it’s not listed). It’s sweet from start to finish. As for performance, two or three sprays are enough to project strongly for about half an hour, with a moderate to heavy trail, before settling close to the skin after two hours. The total longevity is frankly excellent, surpassing seven hours and reaching 10-12 in favourable conditions, though it stays very close to the skin in the final hours while retaining its sweetness. At under £10, it’s a top choice, especially if you’re young or enjoy sweet and gourmand fragrances.
Blind buy: I saw comments from a Spanish YouTuber and decided to order online. At first, I sense a well-articulated blend that doesn’t smell urban, although it follows the gourmand line, its opening is different from anything I’ve tried. An exquisite Peruvian balsam that reminded me of the power of Dior Homme Intense, though only in intent, finishing with a pleasant incense just to avoid being too loud if you project a lot. My brother-in-law, a lover of this type of fragrance and owner of several, didn’t know it; despite using Armani Code Profumo and Million by Paco Rabanne, he was impressed by the performance and asked me to gift it to him for Christmas. Certainly, the packaging and price don’t matter because the contents demonstrate elegance, formality, and audacity. I feel women love this type of composition for its unisex touch, which gives greater acceptance. I bought two bottles but will go for more, I fell in love.
I don’t know what it is, because I don’t understand notes, but I can’t stop smelling it. I love it, it lasts much longer than others from the brand. For the price, it’s well worth it. I’d recommend at least trying it.
I think it’s the best of Nike. It’s not bad if you want to wear something cheap and smell good. It suits me more in open and not too hot environments: an evening or night walk, rather than for the office, to be honest.
