Descripción
Wings for Men by Giorgio Beverly Hills is an aromatic fougère fragrance for men. Launched in 1994, this composition was created by perfumer Jean-Claude Delville. Upon release, it unfolds a vibrant freshness thanks to lavender, green notes, bergamot, neroli, and lemon; the heart reveals a woody floral accord with jasmine, geranium, valley lily, statice, and coriander; while the base settles on a warm and persistent foundation of amber, tonka bean, musk, oakmoss, and cedar.

Reminds me of Calvin Klein’s Eternity but with a sweeter twist, perfect for summer. The green notes and lavender really dominate.
It is incredibly sweet for a men’s fragrance. The bergamot, lemon, and jasmine are very prominent; although the review doesn’t mention it, there is also a distinct vanilla touch. It is openly a unisex scent.
It reminds me greatly of Calvin Klein Eternity, but with a sweeter aroma, ideal for summer. Primarily green notes and lavender.
A delicious perfume I bought yesterday. It’s undeniable that it bears a strong resemblance to Animal for Men and CK Eternity. I’d give it a 9.0.
Agreeing with Sissy, it’s excessively sweet, but of that dusty and talc-like type, very difficult to wear in the heat.
According to Sissy, it’s excessively sweet, dusty or talc-like, making it very difficult to wear in the heat.
Very good fragrance, with incredible longevity and sillage. It’s sweet and spicy all at once. On my skin it lasts all day and I constantly receive compliments. The price-to-quality ratio is top. I recommend it for daily wear, the office or informal outings; you’ll always look good. Fresh and masculine aroma.
Wings had its golden moment in the 90s with that sweet, youthful, and catchy character, fresh and highly aromatic. It brings back good memories of my younger years; it is easy to recall and distinguish. Now, with age, it seems very synthetic at first, but dries down to something pleasant. I wouldn’t wear it at forty, but it is a good option for younger people seeking something striking, with excellent longevity and projection at a ridiculous price. It is a way to vary from the barrage of fragrances young people receive today. It reminds me a bit of Perry Ellis 360, although Wings has more zest. Nothing to do with Eternity. In summary: sweetened, pleasurable, not cloying, excellent price, and a nice bottle.

In summary: sugary, pleasant, not cloying, excellent price and a nice bottle.
So, if it arrived as a generic gift, I’d rather stick with the Swiss Army.
Reviewing Wings is like trying to capture the most strident and exhibitionist spirit of the 90s, for better or worse. It’s not a perfume for everyone; it’s an all-or-nothing affair that only makes sense in its own time. It inevitably takes me back to 1996, when I’d catch the early train to stroll around university with this scent. Today, wearing it is reliving exact and indelible sensations from that youth. It was a gift, not a choice, just like the other perfumes of the era. The opening is effervescent and artificial, a strange blend of lavender, bergamot and musk that screams ‘ultra-clean’. You have to decide: either you’re hooked or you’re repulsed. It doesn’t fit neatly into current categories, neither aquatic nor floral, but in the dry-down it shines with sweet notes, woods and a fruity cleanliness that projects and lasts longer than the average ‘freshie’. That aura of extreme tidiness makes me think of a trilogy with Sculpture and Versace Blue Jeans. It’s the most hated perfume that I love the most.
These days everything fresh implies ethereal, translucent and bodyless scents, sometimes long-lasting but with little projection; minimalism is in and anything that goes beyond is extraordinary. This Wings is like an elephant in a china shop; it doesn’t go unnoticed, a worthy child of its era. As Bofifa says, it’s a very clean scent, warm lavender, woody and white floral, with a pristine musk, ultra-sharp and scandalous, like neon lights, but of a beauty no longer seen, a calling card of the nineties. A vintage radioactive freshness that I love. I feel it as a mix of Alfred Dunhill’s Desire and Nikos’s Sculpture with a touch of Cool Water and a little enriched plutonium, a scandalous and jovial freshness with a touch of maturity. Performance is very good, longevity above average, striking trail in the first hour then dropping to moderate, which isn’t bad for the ridiculous price. It’s for daytime use and warm or temperate climates. To me it seems sumptuously pleasant for a fresh summer evening, less crowded, that won’t make you go unnoticed. I recommend it without doubt, but yes, to people who enjoy scents like Nikos’s Sculpture or Al Haramain’s Mystique Homme; if you don’t like this style, don’t come near, you could suffer irreversible damage.
These days, fresh fragrances tend to be ethereal and insubstantial, sometimes long-lasting but with poor projection. Anything that deviates from that minimalism is extraordinary. This Wings is like an elephant in a china shop: it cannot be overlooked; it is worthy of its era. As Bofifa says, it is an impeccably clean scent, with warm, woody lavender, pristine and sharp musk like neon lights, possessing an ancient beauty. It is a vintage radioactive freshness that I adore. I perceive it as a blend of Alfred Dunhill Desire, Nikos Sculpture, a touch of Cool Water, and a hint of enriched plutonium: scandalous, jovial, and with a touch of maturity. The performance is good, lasting longer than average with a striking trail in the first hour. It is for daytime use in warm weather. For me, it is perfect for a summer afternoon. I recommend it without doubt, but only to those who appreciate fragrances like Sculpture or Mystique Homme; otherwise, don’t even come near it.
Very powerful… no one fails to say you’ve poured the whole bottle… but in the end, a very good scent, it brings me many university memories… excellent price and of course I will buy it again.
An aquatic proposal but dense, spicy with a powerful and intrusive opening that made me hesitate a little. In the first hour the trail is elevated. Over time it shows its true essence; it’s synthetic but there’s something that catches you and makes you enjoy it. I quite like it in the more relaxed middle phase but always strong and present. It has uncommon longevity; better not to over-apply so as not to flood everything (if you take the tube with six sprays, they’ll smell you on the whole train). Anecdote: I invited friends I hadn’t seen for a meal; the youngest girl approached, after the hug and a kiss she whispered with a little smile: you smell delicious. In short, refreshing with spicy and sweet touches, not bad and with surprising performance.
I had it at launch and it was a boom, just like Cool Water, just like Invictus or Sauvage are now. I bought it again two years ago and what’s more, if you want to smell like laundry softener, buy it; I ended up using it to scent my bed sheets.
I had it at launch and it was a boom, just like Cool Water was back then, or as Invictus and Sauvage are now. I bought it again two years ago and, well, if you want to smell like fabric softener, buy it. I ended up using it to scent my bed sheets instead.
Strong scent; the only thing is that it very quickly moves into cedar and woods, which is delicious, but you would have wanted to smell the citrus notes like bergamot a little more; perhaps coriander is a bit more predominant. Very good perfume.
OOF! I first encountered it via a sample in a fashion magazine back in the mid-90s. I adore it. Now that I’m searching for it on Fragrantica, I want to buy one because, although I only have a vague memory of the scent, I perfectly recall the feeling: cleanliness and happiness. It’s one of those fragrances you fall in love with quickly, making it a signature scent or at least a frequent favourite. A wonderfully crafted perfume.
Gosh, I remember meeting it thanks to a sample that came in a fashion magazine in the mid-nineties. I love it. Now that I’m looking for it on Fragrantica to buy it, although I have a vague memory of the scent, I perfectly remember the feeling: cleanliness and happiness. It’s one of those fragrances you get attached to easily, to make it your signature or at least one of the most frequent you use. A fantastically created perfume.
I can’t analyse it properly because I love it; it’s the one that has given me the most compliments. I usually don’t wear perfumes for compliments but for what they convey, but I must tell you that it’s very good. In much wind it seems to wear out faster in a fresh or cold environment; it’s phenomenal, sumptuously pleasant and sparkling. In hot weather it’s not its best presentation; it leaves much to be desired although it still smells phenomenal, it just doesn’t make the most of its phenomenal dry-down.
This fragrance is a total hit; I absolutely love it. It’s brought me the most compliments. I usually don’t wear perfumes for the sake of flattery but for what they convey, yet I must admit it’s excellent. In fresh or windy conditions, it fades quickly and doesn’t project as much; while heat isn’t its best moment and the dry-down could be better, it still smells wonderful.
Sometimes it has a sweet point, but I don’t see it as unisex. Everyone chooses what they like, but if we follow what is associated with feminine or masculine, this one leans towards the masculine side. Yes, it has sweetness and a hint of vanilla. The scent overall smells synthetic; the lavender with citrus and florals gives a feeling of extreme and very heavy cleanliness. Wings is strong and heavy. High projection for the first three hours, then moderate, but it’s noticeable all day and even the next. It’s not for everyone, especially compared to what is available today for millennials (who advertise heavy scents at the start that then disappear). With Wings, the story is different: it’s a proper bomb, worthy of an era when fragrances with substantial body and unquestionable quality were made. These are the heavy scents that if you over-spray you’ll hate them at first, until you get used to them and like them more, until they become part of you. Dear millennials, if you want real things, go back to decades before 2000 to feel a real perfume.
Wings for Men is aromatic, aquatic and fougère. The opening is harsh and synthetic, featuring lavender with green notes like pine or juniper. Over time it improves, the intensity drops and floral notes such as geranium emerge, along with a woody accord of tonka bean, musk and amber, very much in the fresh style of the nineties. You can tell its age; it’s not bad, but those who loved nineties aquatics like Cool Water or Polo Sport will enjoy it more. It’s economical, so we shouldn’t expect much from its quality, which is inferior to those references. Longevity is good, surpassing eight hours with decent projection.

You can tell it’s aged, but it’s not bad; I think those who enjoyed aquatic fragrances from back then, such as Cool Water, Aqua Quorum or Polo Sport, will appreciate it more. It’s quite affordable, so you don’t need to be too demanding on quality, which in my opinion is inferior to the ones mentioned. The longevity is good, lasting over eight hours with decent projection.
Caramelised apple and laundry softener, with no green notes here, perhaps a hint of lavender at the end that sometimes sounds pseudo-aquatic. Imagine walking past a late afternoon fair with caramelised apple, fresh from a shower, wearing clean clothes that have just been given a quick toss with softener. Good longevity and trail, but if you over-spray, you’ll sing a little because it’s ultra-clean.
Now and Forever is hard to understand; it’s a sweet-aquatic-citrus opening… unusual. The dry-down projects cleanliness; it’s not bad but not for everyone. I always give it a second chance, though you need to know the situation in which to wear it. I’d define it as love and hate; it impacted many strongly while others simply couldn’t handle it.

When he was a child his scent enchanted me. I loved it. At the time I smelled Nautica Classic and it reminded me of it a lot. Recently I bought a cologne like Esss Fraiche, the Blue Dylan, and I loved it, this came to mind. I got a similar scent, clear later I read that Wings is like an economical version of Blue Dylan. On the other hand I’ve had the original Eternity and Cool Water, honestly I don’t feel them as similar, a bit like Cool Water but more like Blue Dylan.
Wings is like a unicorn. Many compare it to Cool Water, but I think it’s synthetic, plastic and sharp, going for the Joop! Homme style, not by scent but by concept and formula construction. It’s not marine, nor citrus, nor floral, or it’s all that at once. The opening is sharp (the first time I thought you had to be careful), authentically nineties, thinking about how they imagined an alien perfume in the 90s. It’s one of the most peculiar in my collection (I like them, obviously), I don’t use it much because I can’t find the occasion, though it’s daytime for temperate weather and can also be winter, it’s versatile. The price is a bargain, made in USA, and that peculiar blue bottle could last a long time. It projects normally, lasts normally, but with heat it can keep giving bursts, it doesn’t die easily. It’s a scent for personal appreciation, not to please everyone. Low cost but with a feisty air, challenging, with its own personality that doesn’t want to get lost in the sea of freshies. Giorgio Beverly Hills came very close to Jacques Bogart’s idea. I’m using it today and I wonder where that oakmoss hint comes from (one of my favourite notes) and it’s the Wings itself that keeps surprising, even when it’s dying down to the skin.
Let’s go back to 1994, when Real McCoy and Mariah Carey were playing non-stop. This fragrance came to compete with Cool Water. Although it had 60% similarity, it was ideal for hot days. If we bought it today, 2024, it would smell generic, like Nautica or many blues, perhaps a bit more light, but very versatile, smells clean and girls love this type of scent in men. I’ve bought Giorgio Men several times because few have copied it and it has power and classic interest.
I bought it for my husband and in the end I used it myself because I love it. It’s fresh, clean and persistent, combines very well with any fruity and sweet perfume. I love the combination!
I bought it because I’m a fanatic and nostalgic for the 90s and I knew I had this scent. I still can’t talk much about performance, but it’s going quite well. Totally masculine. I’m surprised no one compares it to Eternity in its EDP version. I feel it’s totally green, slightly spicy, with a barely sweet base that rounds it off. I see it as very similar to Eternity but with more punch. If I have to compare it, it’s close to the classic Eternity EDT and EDP, with brushstrokes of Cool Water and Dylan Blue, but not very noticeable. Anyway, I’ll try it more and update. Already by scent I fell in love, it reminded me of when I was a boy. EDIT: it’s spectacular. It’s Eternity but aquatic and with better performance. If you like 90s scents, go for it.
I bought Wings to give to my husband and also the women’s version. I think it’s the same as with Eternity: the men’s version smells clean, very green and masculine. It’s fresh, ideal for summer. I can’t find an aquatic scent. At first a slightly musty note dirties the combination, but then it dissipates leaving a neat perfume. Longevity is 8 hours.
I’ve been looking for it for years, only remembering the bottle. I smelled it in 1995 when I was almost a child with an inexperienced nose, but it left a delicious memory. Now that I’ve tried blue perfumes, it brings to mind more than anything Dylan Blue, Nautica Voyage and the Añgo de Fierce.
First review of the house and it’s Wings for Men by Giorgio Beverly Hills. It’s the epitome of herbal-citrus: the projection in the first hour is stratospheric before calming down to become moderate. It gives lots of vitality thanks to that herbal-citrus mix with lavender. Longevity is medium, around 5 or 6 hours, where you notice the coriander and oakmoss with cedar at the end. In my opinion, it’s ideal for autumn and spring; in summer it can be overwhelming due to its potency and is better for daytime. It can also be worn at night, but I wouldn’t recommend it much. It has that vintage touch that makes it perfect for the office or a suit, conveying neatness and masculinity. In short, it’s vintage but doesn’t smell old, suits any occasion, has potent projection and moderate longevity that will revitalise you and bring compliments.
I’ve been hunting for perfumes from this house for ages, and now that they’re accessible, this was a total hit since I was looking for something ‘vintage’. Wings caught me off guard: for under £9 for 50ml, it’s a summer proposal with an 80s soul. It’s not aquatic, but fresh and aromatic. The opening is a green punch, Hulk-style, which can be dizzying at first, but within a minute it settles into a floral with cold lavender, a bit synthetic but well done. There’s a controlled sweetness that harmonises everything. The longevity is good, but the trail is a monster: for the first hour it floods the room and can give a headache, so be careful with the spray; less is more. I’d wear it all year, save perhaps for winter daytime, though it has enough body to wear at night without issues.
