Impact by Tommy Hilfiger

SIMPLE, FULFILLING AND GOOD PERFORMANCE. Its aroma is not novel; it can remind you of many fragrances but doesn’t specifically recall one, so it has its degree of ‘originality’ without being a different smell. It is simple (Citrus, ‘Dark’ Woods and Musk), I perceive modernity; it doesn’t evoke something old, quite the opposite, it feels current and youthful, consequently interesting. I think it is more SUITABLE for heat and day; while it can be a 4×4 and a signature, it lacks sensuality for a night date, I don’t consider it elegant although it is casual or semi-formal, it looks excellent for the gym and any outing with friends. I received compliments of the type ‘you smell very rich’, from ladies and gentlemen, it was noticeable and of general taste, without negative comments and great personal enjoyment. PERFORMANCE excellent, lasted me 7-8 hours, projecting strongly for the first hour; after 15 sprays I reduced it to 8 because it was potent, I also noticed a denser trail than usual for an EDT. PRICE was ‘affordable’ 3 years ago, outside department stores it didn’t exceed $1,000 MXN, it could easily be a BBB perfume, surpassing more expensive fragrances, so don’t hesitate to try before buying. Compliments 9, Longevity 10, Projection 10, Trail 9, Price 10, TOTAL 9.6.

It has a… strange and particular smell. It’s very woody but smells a bit like hair gel or something synthetic; I can’t quite describe it, it just smells odd. Citrus and woody from start to finish, fresh and ambered. It’s very versatile, but its best moment is in mild weather, especially on rainy days; I feel it fits perfectly with the smell of wet earth. Suitable for all ages. Note: if you are looking for a blue scent like Sauvage or Y, this has nothing of that, nor floral or spicy notes, less fruity, it leans more towards Bleu de Chanel. Good longevity, minimum 7 up to maximum 10 hours if you apply many sprays, projecting about 3 hours. It’s a very good option for a signature scent; although it seems like many fragrances in its simplicity, that strange and rich smell makes it distinctive. Not impressive, just fulfilling. Pyramid: 50% Woods, 30% Citrus, 20% Amber. Extreme heat 6/10, Heat 8/10, Cold 8/10, Extreme Cold 5/10, Mild 10/10, School/Office 9/10, Dates 7.5/10, Special Occasions 7/10, Daily 10/10. If you are young, looking for something rich, woody and masculine for daily wear and safe for any occasion, it’s a very good option 💗.

I don’t understand what the coca leaf smells like, but the opening is indeed somewhat citrusy and ambered. A saleswoman gave me many 1.5mL samples (4 or 5, haha), and I took one of my empty 5mL decants and filled it; the liquid is blue. Now that I’ve been using it a bit more, I can say it’s a good perfume, versatile. I have preferences for perfumes of this type but less woody and more aquatic and marine; this is a rich woody scent. From here, I’ll add something based on other comments: I couldn’t detect that marijuana sensation they mentioned; honestly, if it were an undisclosed note, it’s not even slightly pronounced, nothing, it’s more reminiscent of Bad Boy Le Parfum. It reminds me of Terre d’Hermes Eau Intense Vetiver, though this one shifts to the woody side sooner. I can only recommend it, easy to like, not very distinctive but not a bad perfume. They prefer the Parfum version for the triad: vanilla/oud/leather, but that’s more because it’s my thing; in reality, they are two completely different perfumes. 9.3/10.

Well, what can I say… 1. I think it’s a perfume for elegant SPORT, suitable for any season… that touch of lavender gives you presence wherever you are, and if you’re well-groomed, it’s a 10… 2. The performance on my skin is excellent; it lasts past ten hours and projects for five of those… 3. It has that quite sweet but not cloying opening that accompanies you all day, along with the touch of lavender which, although not declared, is perceptible. To summarise, I’ve used it in all climates… it’s an excellent travel companion… being an elegant SPORT, it always leaves you looking sharp. I recommend it for men in their thirties; for those over 35 there are perfumes with more personality, but for me it’s a great success from the house. Cheers, hope this helps.

Unbearable. It’s an amber-heavy, hemp-like scent with suffocating, spicy herbal undertones. A blend of green amber, spicy balsamic notes, and buds that smell like hemp. Like many perfumes today, it smells cheap; I’m not saying ten-euro scents don’t smell glorious, but this has the texture of current casino or hotel air fresheners. I haven’t tried anything so unpleasant in the designer sector for a while, a spray sentence that shouldn’t have been bottled. The top notes lead with coca leaf and amber; the Akigalawood molecule gives it that artificial oily wood sub-tone that becomes more noticeable as it dries.

This perfume holds the record for compliments in the shortest time. It’s dense, not for extreme heat. The opening is peculiar: effeminate, resinous, and heavy, with the citrus arriving later. It’s not typical where the fresh notes explode first; here, the wood enters within the first second and the citrus peeks out afterwards. Something curious is that it gives off a vibe of clean skin or sweat, nothing unpleasant. That strange note really grabs attention. It’s not the typical youthful perfume of today; it has personality, character, and a distinct style.

Great perfume if you can find it on offer (practically always). I doubt there’s anyone who wouldn’t like it; it lasts and projects well. On offer, you probably won’t find anything better in 100ml; at regular price it’s expensive for what it offers. It’s a scent that reminds you of others, likely without you realising it. It pleases everyone, which is important, but doesn’t surprise anyone, especially not collectors as it’s not revolutionary. Highly recommended purchase if the price is right.

I picked it up for the nostalgia of the brand, even though Tommy isn’t a powerhouse in perfumery, so I gave it a chance. Tommy Impact is a contrast: it’s not bad, but it’s not a phenomenon. It delivers but lacks what would make it unique; very linear. It’s a deja vu you can’t quite identify. Very youthful; for a teenager it would be top tier, but for a mature man there are better options. Tommy Impact Intense has what this one lacks, we’ll see. Cheers.

I picked this up at Costco today for 1,099 pesos, a fair price. I was torn between Spark and this, but I went for the safe option since I didn’t know the scent of Spark. To my nose, it smells very much like the first generation of Boss Bottled, Good Girl by Carolina Herrera, with a twist of Libre by YSL. I see it as unisex, perfect for any season and occasion, preferably casual. I recommend it to anyone who wants to feel good with a woody aroma.

Beautiful fragrance, undoubtedly my favourite among my collection of 60 perfumes. I’d never found a fresh perfume that lasted as long as this; it smells very rich and lasts well for a fresh scent. It’s a scent I have to keep smelling because I like it so much; girls love it. If it resembles its brother, the Intense, then in my opinion this one is much better, fresher.

Superb fragrance, delivers on its promises, with good sillage and longevity. Reminded me a lot of Hugo Boss Bottled, but that doesn’t take away from it. Well done, Tommy Hilfiger; I’m not a fan of their scents but I’m satisfied with the purchase. It’s a scent that pleases and lasts, which is what matters. Plus, I got it on sale, even better.

I’m 28 and own 30 fragrances. Tommy Impact is in my top three. A lovely citrus opening blending into woods, highlighting the Akigalawood. I prefer this original over its variants. Lasts 6-8 hours on skin with good projection for 2-4 hours. Buy blind; men and women both like it, easy to wear, and I’ve received many compliments.

A very rich fragrance. It won’t blow your wig off at first, but if you can get it at a good price, it’s a good buy. It has similarities with Boss Bottled, and I detect a hint of Ferragamo Intense Leather in the dry-down. The 100ml version comes with a decant in the cap, a great idea by the brand.

I was surprised; it’s truly masculine, very woody and rich. It’s versatile and good value for the price. At first, it didn’t last long, but after letting it macerate a bit, it lasts me 8-9 hours with about 3 hours of projection.

At first it’s fresh and citrusy; the woods make the dry-down soft and even. The sweetness of the amber at the end is wonderful. On skin it lasts easily eight hours and has good projection initially. Rating: 6.
