It is woodsy and slightly spicy and kind of linear but not bad overall. Star USA– Juniper berries, citron, woods, and ginger are the main stars of this moderate scent. Another one that could be worth picking up for winter wear, if the price is right. Though, I wanted to give this one a spot because it does smell good. Many John Varvatos scents (particularly the Artisan line), don’t last very long. However, the performance of that scent is atrocious. Note: Dark Rebel Rider, probably has the better smelling opening act versus this one. Still further: leather, herbs, and woods emerge to give the fragrance an interesting finish. Vanilla, tobacco, with some underlying rum give it a sweet smoothness that I find very enjoyable. I like Rebel, once that spice has burned itself off. The pepper note is pretty intense within that first 10 minute window, but settles thereafter. It starts out with rum, tobacco, and pepper. John Varvatos Reviewĭark Rebel– Dark Rebel is a masculine and spicy scent, with many similarities to Man in Black by Bvlgari. However, the smell is really attractive and a joy to wear. The performance is pretty mediocre, so, I’d only pick it up for cheap. In the later stages, most of the sweeter notes fade away and you’re left with: amber, leather, and woods. Dates, vanilla, amber, and caramel give this one a sweetness to play off the spice and woody ingredients. Between the dates and wood, John Varvatos for Men has a unique yet familiar scent. Then, you get the fruity notes, mainly dates. The initial start of the cologne is a mix of the leather and wood notes, like tamarind and fir. John Varvatos– A woodsy and leathery affair at first that emerges into a fragrance that has a certain sweetness to it present by the fruit notes. I’m also adding Artisan Pure to the list, as a sort of replacement. I’m going to leave it on the list, because you can probably hunt one down online, and I think that this was the best scent from the Artisan lineup. I haven’t seen any bottles of Artisan Black for a while. I think that this one has now been discontinued. This is a scent for the warmer months for guys who enjoy a sweet citric fragrance in the summertime. This one, has better performance, and stands out with its unique aroma versus some of the other options.Īrtisan Black-A citrus blend with supporting notes of ginger and some floral. I like the smell of many of the other Artisan scents.
#John varvatos artisan vs artisan acqua full
Pure is a very fresh citrus scent, full of rich green undertones, and a bit of a floral finish. Pure has the usual Artisan citrus flare, but pairs it with some nice herbal notes like thyme and petitgrain, to give it a slightly different touch. However, Black doesn’t seem to be around much anymore, so I’m putting this one on the list (Artisan Black is still below). Nonetheless, this is probably the best smelling of the Varvatos colognes, or at least top 2-3.Īrtisan Pure– Pure is in my mind, the second best fragrance from the Artisan line. Performance is decent, but not anything that special. Up top, those notes get lost in the fray, on my skin. As it dries down, I feel that it gets sweeter and the light citrus and rhubarb touches become a great deal more noticeable. I love tonka bean, as a note, which gets flanked by that suede note and rich cured tobacco. Much like the other scents, on this list, it will settle down into something that is more palatable and great. Fir and a blend of spices announces that Vintage has arrived. The opening act is pretty powerful and ‘in your face’. Notes include: tobacco, suede, tonka bean, jasmine, rhubarb, absinthe, and others. Vintage is a masculine scent that grabs attention in an understated way. Vintage– Warm, fresh, and incredibly smooth. What are the Best Smelling Varvatos Colognes? Best Overall Varvatos Cologne
