About this deal

The first aromatic-aquatic appeared in 1991, making this signature a relative newcomer to the fragrance world. The herbaceous notes are brightened with cooling seaside tones, resulting in a salty, rugged freshness. When this particular product is first applied, grapefruit, ginger and lemon are recognisable. Next middle notes of sage, lavender, waterlily and marine notes take the spotlight. At last a deluge of amber, moss, cashmeran and patchouli soars in to round out the olfactory experience. (Cashmeran is a synthetic used to enhance woody-muskiness.) Jesus del Pozo Fragrances: Price UK For me, this is a pass. It isn't terrible but I'll take something with poor performance and better composition and respray that even though it is twice the price. Actually, when you factor in respraying it becomes 4 times the price. Hmm, maybe The original Halloween Man made me nauseous, but this flanker is COMPLETELY different. There's nothing annoyingly synthetic about this one. It's utterly crowd pleasing, performs decently, and it's really well priced. Two thumbs WAY up for this one!

However, the base seems to have been constructed independently of the mish-mash laid on top of it, giving the very-long drydown a unique, narcotic and sexy character. It is almost enough to fully-redeem the journey to that point. I like the slightly sweet alcohol note and the lavender/ violet leaf in this… Makes it a bit more tamed and not as in your face as 1 Million can be.

Halloween Man X to me is a hybrid of so many other fragrances. Ironically it is a Frankenstein DNA, which fits the name "Halloween" perfectly on this occasion.

In my opinion, they do share very similar DNA between, but definitely not a clone. Each perfume do have their own unique character and I liked both of them. However, personally I prefer Halloween better since I find One Million is not that versatile one to wear on daily occasion; Halloween is also more of clubbing scent, but I find it could be worn on a daily basis during the cold weather. After the initial blast, ginger, green apple, cinnamon, frankincense, and the leather accord dominate. I'm a bit disturbed by the watery/ozonic note gliding along underneath- it lubricates and cools when I would prefer things to stay a bit warmer and drier. I suppose it was added to freshen the apple note, but I think this fragrance would do better if it was turned down more than a wee bit (especially as, in tandem with the white musk and fruity notes, it also keenly reminds me of "the B&B vibe"). But it's an interesting take on a fruity oriental, with leather, gourmand and basic fougere elements included as well, giving a nod to 80's powerhouses without venturing too far in that direction. Halloween Man X is beautiful fragrance. Prominent coffee note, mixed with warm cinnamon, sweet vanillic tonka, and boozy whiskey to create this sweet yet rich coffee aroma.We're talking the situations you'd wear it, affordability, scent profile with the coffee and sweetness, juice quality and finally performance, but the list could continue. At times the freshness of the lemon and vanilla mix to give off a Versace Eros vibe (Eros does it with mint and vanilla).

Projection Power: 10 (Fills a street), 9 (fills a room), 8 (can smell from 5 meters), 7 (3 meters), 6 (within arms reach bubble), 5 (20cm from skin) For dinners, especially since this is a gourmand, be careful with overspraying, might even council not to wear this to dinners since it is pretty strong, heavy, deep, sweetish, desserty scent. I would not stand this scent if i was eating - lets say - a steak. Initial projection is strong at around 6 feet. Sillage is strong as well, leaving an easily noticeable scent trail. After a few hours the projection was still about arms length and there was still a slightly noticeable scent trail. Altogether the scent lasted on my skin around 10 hours. Not bad for a cheapie. Female version is a combination of sweet caramelized vanilla,boozy fruity notes and a touch of powder.this one is exactly it's masculine the other halfThis fragrance IMO...it's like CH Men Prive By Carolina Herrera & La Nuit de l`Homme By Yves Saint Laurent...had a love child that, no one knew about(Just walking around out in the world). And grew up with his older adoptive brother Valentino Uomo Intense By Valentino. I do have to agree that this is a clone or attempt at copying La Nuit and I do see the similarities but the differences are that La Nuit is WAY better blended and this is very cheap smelling and synthetic.
