Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
Azzaro Chrome United: the house never fails and executes everything well, from its 1978 classic to the Chrome and Wanted ranges, all boasting longevity and sillage that pricier perfumes would envy. This one surprised me: a potent citrus opening that transitions into a fresh, spicy trail for 6 hours with a clean sensation. I’m amazed a citrus can last so long; by 4 hours it was literally filling the whole car. Ideal for spring/summer evenings or informal gatherings. Any of the Chrome line is a safe bet with great value. Rating: 8/10.
Chrome United by Azzaro: the house never misses. From the 70s classics to the Chrome and Wanted ranges, everything smells great and lasts longer than many expensive perfumes. This United caught me off guard: a potent citrus opening that evolves into a fresh, spicy trail lasting six hours with a clean feel. How rare is it for a citrus to last this long! At four hours, it filled my entire car. Ideal for spring/summer evenings at informal gatherings. Any Chrome is a safe bet with the best quality-price ratio. Rating: 8/10
Smells very similar to Nautica Voyage but with less cucumber. It is a very powdery and soft fragrance; the more you wear it, the better it starts to smell. The only flaw is that the longevity and trail are almost non-existent after two hours
Very similar to Nautica Voyage but with less cucumber. It’s very talc-like and soft; the longer you wear it, the better it starts to smell. The only drawback is that its longevity and sillage are almost non-existent after two hours.
A very good youthful fragrance with a fresh aroma that generates compliments. Moderate longevity, with soft trail and projection
A good youthful fragrance with a fresh aroma that generates compliments. Moderate longevity and soft projection.
A fantastic blind buy; I doubt anyone could dislike it. It’s simple, fresh, and clean—a subtle basic that may not captivate everyone but certainly won’t offend. Following the Chrome base, which is a smart choice, and unlike limited editions that fade quickly, this lasts comfortably near the skin for 7 hours. At a good price, it’s a must-have for any wardrobe.
Fantastic blind buy; I doubt anyone could dislike it. It is simple, fresh, and smells clean… A staple that doesn’t invade and, while it may not fascinate, it certainly won’t offend. It follows the Chrome base, which is appropriate (the scent doesn’t change radically between versions), and unlike the limited editions which fade quickly, this one stays comfortably for seven hours (close to the skin, without invading). At a good price, it is an essential wardrobe staple
Weak! It lasts nothing on the skin. A super generic aroma that has totally disappointed me. In warm temperatures, it doesn’t even last three hours
I like the fragrance; I thought it had a pineapple note, it is the fruitiest aquatic I have tried. Previously (2014) it cost a ridiculous 499 Mexican pesos, now it is double that and a bit more (1,200), but it is still worth it. Note: some people do not tolerate the coriander note, which is present throughout the life of the perfume, so you are warned
I like it, although I thought it had pineapple; it’s the fruitiest aquatic I’ve tried. Previously (2014) it cost a ridiculous $499 pesos, now it’s double that, around $1,200, but it’s still worth it. Warning: some people cannot tolerate the coriander note, which is present throughout the life of the perfume.
From the other Chrome line. Starts very citrusy and the violet makes itself felt in a few minutes. Pleasant and powdery. A good option for a drink on a terrace in summer. I see it as unisex because the dry down has a quite feminine touch. Out of all the Chromes, I think this has the most projection or lasts the longest on skin, considering they are quite light. The final part is delightful
A somewhat shy fragrance… It is similar to Black by Ferragamo; although this one is more ephemeral and loaded with citrus notes with small powdery touches. It is totally separate from Azzaro Chrome, which has better trail and longevity than the United. The opening is deceptive: it gives a false impression that it will last 5-6 hours, being half of that and very close to the skin. It is pleasant but has projection and trail deficiencies… What a pity, I thought I had found a good perfume
A somewhat timid fragrance, similar to Ferragamo Black but more ephemeral and citrus-heavy with small talc-like touches. It differs from Azzaro Chrome, which has better sillage and longevity than the United. The opening is deceptive: it gives a false impression of lasting 5-6 hours, but it’s half that and very skin-close. It’s pleasant but fails on projection and sillage… a pity I thought I’d found a good perfume.
The first thing I thought when I smelled it was: Only Loewe Eau de Cologne Intense by Loewe. The curious thing is that they share very few notes. It is a fresh and delicious fragrance, with a target of 25 years and older. Ideal for hot days when you need a certain level of formality
Smelling it reminded me of Loewe Eau de Cologne Intense, though they share few notes. It’s fresh, delicious, and suits those over 25, perfect for hot days with a touch of formality.
It is a fragrance to use sparingly. I do not recommend it if you like soft fragrances. Nor for those who prefer to leave their essence trail around them. Due to its heart note, which is very defined to my taste
Use sparingly. Not recommended if you’re looking for something soft, nor for those who want to leave a trail. Its heart note is too defined for my taste.
