The described notes should be identical to those of Elite Gentlemen Reserve, as it is basically the same fragrance under a different name. I would call it Vétiver Reserve or Gentlemen Vétiver Reserve, because it smells overwhelmingly of vetiver and almost nothing of Exclusive; it has a serious, formal character, ideal for the office. The opening is rich, with watermelon and very fresh, generic ozonic notes, but with a spicy twist that gives it distinction. Unfortunately, that fruity and fresh opening lasts only 5 or 10 minutes before giving way to a sweet vetiver facet with cardamom that lingers until the end on clothes. In my case, perhaps due to my skin’s pH (I do not have dry skin), it does not last more than 2 hours; afterwards, you have to press your nose against it to catch any trace of amber. My conclusion is that it is a rich, ephemeral fragrance with a formal character and extremely short longevity, but given its low price, it is a good and distinguished proposition. Do not be deceived, it seems fresh, but it is more of a mid-season scent due to its woody evolution.
