I wonder if there is a matter of personal chemistry or just an overdose of smell, but I feel some pleasant and really rarely met by me side of pachouli-violet duet: I feel earth. I mean not the very intensive spring smell, but more likely it's the one very inviting scent of cool and moist shady corners of a park or forest on a hot summer day. But, alas, it doesn't last long: the musk comes. It's not that don't like musk or something, but as to me, I would prefer the other development. But I have to admit it stays highly wearable :) Kevin, thank you for a very informative review!

NR is of course VERYsimple compared to it, but you can fin in both base notes dirty, agressive, dusty and animal notes. And of course, the comparison ends here !

(I've been to Dismal Swamp in HOT weather and loved the aroma). That being said, NR, alas, just smelled like a sweet ole fougere to me.

I like a variety of scents, even some that others find 'repulsive', but NR for Him is a complete disaster in my opinion. Just smells like you're wading through a murky swamp on a hot, steamy day. I gave it a chance, kept checking it throughout its development, but no go. Sorry to those who like this, but this is one of the worst fragrances I've ever smelled.

Robin, it would be interesting to see if anyone else has reactions to either of the NR scents. The only other scent that I have had a reaction with was Cuiron by Helmut Lang and that brought me put bright red on my neck wear I spraued it.

Whatever the chemical is that is causing the problem must either be rare, or be used here in much larger quantities than it is in other scents.

I've been reading "for fun" the Cosmetics Database lately and after seeing the list of DANGEROUS ingredients one finds in basically EVERY toiletry product I'm almost ready to moisturize with organic lard, exfoliate with horsetails and wear flowers in every buttonhole to scent myself.
