Halloween Man Shot by Halloween

The iris, cardamom, leather and vanilla with a cocktail twist make it intense and warm; I tried it and yes, it smells of iris and vanilla, a real winner for this Halloween!

It’s a fragrance that doesn’t recall anything specific but is pleasant and not at all alcoholic; as it dries down it feels talcum-like (literally talc) with a floral touch which I think is the iris. It’s warm (not sweet), incredible for day or night, school or office in cold/temperate weather. With a few sprays it’s intimate, but with 7-8 notes you’ll surely receive good compliments. It lasts 5-6 hours with decent projection for about an hour, without an incredible trail. It’s not a spectacular fragrance but I like it; my father uses it too and it’s a good option for a father or a young person wanting a good aura in the cold. It’s not for a specific age, but as it’s not spectacular I don’t recommend buying blind, try it first! A few days ago I tried L’homme by YSL and it reminded me of Man Shot: this one is warmer and L’homme is fresher for the office.

It doesn’t resemble anything, La Nuit de L’homme is more similar to Dolce & Gabbana The One EDP.

A sexy and coquettish fragrance based on leather and vanilla; its sweet and charismatic scent could generate curious glances on a night out. The trail isn’t very pronounced but noticeable, it combines perfectly for a date. Ideal perfume for the romantic man.

Undoubtedly it’s the ideal scent for going to a quiet bar. It’s not scandalous, it makes you feel relaxed because it won’t leave you down with two or three compliments. Age range 18-32. I can’t imagine a girl using it. It’s a sophisticated masculine scent but not intense. It leaves you wanting more. Short trail, so it also serves in the office or work without moving much, otherwise it disappears quickly. It’s economical and despite that it’s not mass-produced. At least it doesn’t seem like a deodorant scent.

Do not buy this for anyone. It smells nice at first, but once it dries down, it smells like my grandmother. My aunt wears the same one and now I feel old. Regards…

Not a bad one; I bought it blindly looking for something cheap for cold nights. At first, it smells like a seventy-year-old lady’s perfume with a masculine twist, hehe. Once it dries down, that scent fades and it becomes more masculine, with notes of pepper and a creamier finish. It’s not ideal for young people, although a boy could wear it, it just doesn’t smell youthful. I’m not disgusted by it; I’d gift it to my father, it would suit him better. I’m not an expert, but this is my opinion.

Excellent for the evening, even when it’s hot. Perfect for applying under the face and chest so you smell occasionally. It’s not tiring and one or two sprays are enough if you’re looking for something close to the skin.

If you read the notes, it seems like the most enchanting night lotion, but the truth is it’s more than that. The price-to-performance ratio is excellent and it’s worth it, but don’t go in with high expectations if you buy blind. I would have liked more cardamom and less liquor, something that would give it more personality. It’s elegant and rich, but smells a bit generic. I quite liked the bottle. 7.5/10.

What can I say about Halloween Shot? I’ve been testing it for weeks and I like it. The bottle has an interesting design: gold on top with a gradient from black to grey. In terms of scent, at first it smells slightly alcoholic with a spicy acidic touch for 3 to 5 minutes, surely evoking daiquiri, pepper and lime. Then it moves to that sweet creamy note combined with something powdery, probably cardamom and iris. On my skin it feels very sharp; the heart is sweet, creamy and powdery. A classy, natural and elegant perception. The trail is moderate-soft, about 50 cm around you. For a casual outing, it lasts about 2 hours with you and then sits close to the skin. The base notes are dry leather and ambered, surely some wood resin. It’s worth having, not easy to get in Colombia. It costs around 250,000 pesos or less. I recommend it for going out with friends and girls, they might like it, it’s not invasive. I agree with some people on carrying a refillable perfume atomiser to reapply.

No one knows what to think, haha. Some say it smells like The One, others like Valentino, but the truth is it has nothing to do with either, haha.

If we combined all the fragrances recommended for going out at night, this Halloween Man Shot would be the result. It’s a perfect summary of a warm perfume blending the sexy cardamom of La Nuit de L’Homme, the amber notes of Armani Code Profumo and Absolu, Montblanc Legend Night and D&G The One with that iris which adds elegance and a creamy sensation. The only downside is it doesn’t last long, but since it’s economical, you can apply more and use a decant to refresh. Highly recommended.

It’s a copy of D&G The One, though with minimal variations, leaning more towards Prada L’homme. It’s a good fragrance and doesn’t change much as it dries down.

I think the scent is very common in men’s fragrances for cold climates. Here in Mty, Mexico, it’s very hot and if you wear it at 25 degrees or more it will give you a headache. It’s for night and fresh use; otherwise it will cause headaches. It’s potent at first but fades very quickly, lasting perhaps at most two hours. I recommend saving a bit more and buying something of better quality.

I’d say it’s a blend of Montblanc Legend Night and Armani Code Absolu Gold. I already had the regular Halloween Man, I have the X, the X is the most hyped, but I think this Shot is the best, the most elegant and the most seductive of all I’ve tried.
