He Wood Cologne caught me off guard; it should probably be called He Iso- with violet, as it smells like steroids layered over pleasant wood and a genuine aquatic freshness. The other He Wood scents are more pronounced with better trail and longevity, but this Cologne offers superior freshness, feels different, and suits my nose better. I feel comfortable wearing it: it’s lively, easy to wear, and perfect for spring or cool summer evenings when the days are long, warm, and we spend more time with family and friends. Ideal for moments when you don’t want something heavy and overpowering in the heat, yet still smell good. It’s not an energetic citrus for the gym, but rather provides peace, relaxation, and cleanliness, all at a very reasonable price. The only downside is the short longevity (around four hours).

A genuine disgrace from Dsquared2 (though I must admit, the brand name is quite cool…). It doesn’t smell good even at the initial spray, which is remarkable given how difficult that usually is to achieve. Even the worst on the market typically manages five to ten minutes of pleasant scent; this does nothing. It’s a fragrance I believe they themselves weren’t entirely sure what they wanted it to smell like. It sits somewhere between floral and woody, yet everything is extremely faint from the start, of lamentable quality. The performance, trail, projection, and so on is absolute nonsense. To put it briefly, it’s like ‘He Wood’ but even worse… That said, it probably didn’t sell well, as it’s practically given away for free.
