Great scent. I am very picky and this is one of two scents I buy (the other is Polo Black by Ralph Lauren).
Only issue is it wears off quickly. So it's not "overpowering," but it doesn't hold long.

otherwise great price and value on this website.

My husband sampled this cologne in a department store and he loved it. I ordered this gift set for him for Father's Day. Great price considering it comes with a travel spray. He has been using the metal box to keep samples and other small toiletries organized.

The scent is really beautiful, but doesn't last as expected.

Mmmm, What a lovely clementine - I mean cologne. It's not really clementine, it's more like a mandarin tree was grafted to a pomelo & orange hybrid then the product was genetically merged with lavender by mad scientists because why the hell not. What you get is really good.

It's not bad, the reviews suggested it was excellent however the smell is not as strong as I would like although it does smell nice. I prefer a stronger smell like boss or paco. But this is decent so don't be put off especially when the price is great.

Nice smell but doesnt last long than i expected..

Fragrance is excellent, but only problem is fragrance do not last long.

It is almost silly to review this fragrance, as it has been available for years, and you can find tester sprays at almost any department store. Here goes anyway: yes, the fragrances are Tangelo, Marjoram, Thyme, Murraya, Lavandin, Kephalis, Ginger Absolute, Serenolide, Belambre, Orange Blossom,...

Fellows!!! This is it/The One!!!! I'm very excited about this sexy-scent from John Varvatos! In the description, Artisan is noted as being invigorating, woody and citrus. It's definitely all that and then some! Since purchasing a 2.5oz bottle, I've gotten compliments from both men and women.
