Nope, no pineapple that I can detect. Just the fuel resin and lots and lots of sandalwood on the drydown.

Mike: not a smidgen of pineapple on me, or turpentine. I have a sample of Chaos on the way…seems to be everyone's favorite.

Did noone smell the pineapple in this? I didn't like Fuel when I sampled it about a year ago (prior to this re-issue) and I thought it smelled like a mixture of thinning agent and pineapple juice. Blech!

Noe DK Chaos – that's some brilliant stuff!

Lucky for you!

I might just stick with my L'Homme and Zegna fragrances for now *hinthintforareview*

Oana: this seems to be one of those scents that DOES smell different on everyone…I didn't pick up any floral note at all.

His description is accurate. I still have my bottle. And it's more than half-full.

I vaguely remember some of the marketing copy that said the metal of the bottle is meant to pick up oils from a person's hand to give it a sort of personalized, patina look. (Whatever.)

In the picture, it looks as if the cap is still on the bottle.

When I've tried this one, instantly I associated with old lipstic scent. My Mom used some lipstic reminding this scent about 20 years ago. I found interesting and I would wear it myself For me it is similar to a character of Frederic Malle Lipstic Rose perfume.
