    A fruity blend with green freshness and soft floral notes. Bamboo, mandarin, and wheat evoke a spring meadow with a creamy, non-spicy base that is very calming. Honestly, it doesn’t come close to the charm of its feminine counterpart; perhaps there was nothing left for the brand’s men. It is solid but dull. Versatile, it doesn’t bother but doesn’t dazzle either. It passed without fuss or glory and I wouldn’t recommend it at that exorbitant price (unless you’re a fan).

    I wore it in summer and I swear it smelled of watermelon. It was a very fresh, fruity EDT with great longevity and projection. What a pity Lancôme didn’t boost their men’s fragrances and discontinued them; at least this Ô was fantastic.

    For many, it was our first perfume of youth. They killed it when they discontinued it; no matter how hard I’ve tried, I’ve never found another like it. My first kiss was with this scent and my first summer love. Back in student days, wearing it in the morning was a huge energy boost, just as much as after afternoon training. If anyone knows of anything similar, let me know.

    It was one of my first perfumes and I didn’t need another; when they discontinued it, I tried everything looking for a clone without success. There is nothing equal to it, although Carolina Herrera’s 212 VIP comes close, but nothing gives me that pleasure this one or the Lancôme did. I even tried replicating it with essential oils and nothing came of it. If anyone knows of something similar today, I’d be grateful. Regards.

  5. I just picked up this 90s treasure from the shop, it brings back so many memories of my youth and my first job in a perfumery. I used it practically every day and finally, after a long time searching, I’ve managed to get it, although in splash format, at a moderate price considering its discontinuation. I’ll have to use decants to apply it properly without wasting more liquid than necessary. A wonderful fragrance like the ones of old, lots of nostalgia. A gem worthy of any collection that now belongs to mine. Really pleased.

    I remembered this incredible perfume on Wednesday, 19 July 2023, which I bought when I was young and didn’t really appreciate at first. Now I think it would have been spectacular; knowing it’s no longer available brings me so much nostalgia. Does anyone know of something similar? I genuinely miss it. I’m from Chile and I believe there are still bottles somewhere out there. It was a classy fragrance at a good price, and it was through this one that I started collecting scents.

    I remembered this incredible perfume I bought when I was young, which didn’t have much effect on me back then. Now I think it would have been something special. It fills me with nostalgia thinking it’s no longer available. I’d like a friend to tell me if they know anything similar because I really miss it. I’m from Chile and I believe there are still bottles out there somewhere. It was a classy perfume at a good price; it’s what made me start liking the fragrance collection.

    Some unusual and fresh note combinations make this proposal ideal for spring-summer. The flowers and the slightly sharp green notes are very noticeable, making it versatile and captivating, very pleasant for the nose, with a longevity of 4 to 5 hours in my case. It was certainly avant-garde in its time; I think it’s another good proposal that no longer exists, which I was able to get to know and appreciate thanks to the kindness of Josesan, owner of an impressive collection. Thanks, mate.

  10. What a pity with how well it smelled and the energy boost it gave in the morning, not to mention good longevity. What a shame it disappeared.
