About David Beckham Instinct

Its formula was created by an acclaimed perfumer, Nathalie Lorson. This perfume is an elegant yet bright composition that speaks for a man who is self-assured and has a charming character.

Aromatic Fougere

Scent Type:

Fresh, spicy, woody

Notes:

David Beckham Instinct Cologne opens with a bright burst of Italian bergamot, grapefruit, and mandarin orange, creating a refreshing and invigorating first impression. In the middle of the perfume, one can feel the fantastic combination of pimento, star anise, and cardamom that is spicy and aromatic thus forming the character of the scent. The last notes of Haitian vetiver, patchouli, and white amber tie the fragrance down with a warm, woody, and slightly erotic finish, and are thus a reminder of it.

Suggested Use

For optimal experience, apply David Beckham Instinct Cologne directly onto pulse points such as your wrists, neck, and behind your ears. These areas naturally emit body heat, which will help in intensifying the fragrance, ensuring it lasts throughout the day. This versatile scent is suitable for both daytime wear and evening occasions, enhancing any moment with a touch of elegance and charisma.

It's not all in a name

On recommendation I obtained a bottle of Instinct. I originally thought that by attaching a celebrity name was just a crass way to sell something unsellable. How wrong I was! This is a wonderful scent. It satisfied my preference for gentle citrus tones initially, which then develops to a lively

spicy note before calming down. If you want to impress somebody, be sure to have them nearby after applying a dose so they too benefit from the whole life of this scent. My only complaint would be its' lack of longevity.

For the price tag

Probably the best scent you can purchase for this price point. Definitely not overpowering and doesn't hold very long, but what do you expect for an under 15 bottle? Great smell for the price you pay. I wear this often.

My girlfriend told me to write this

My review is really based solely on how my girlfriend reacted to me wearing this cologne compared to another one I purchased form here. Her exact words were "David Beckham is good at everything." I didn't know whether to feel jealousy towards him or to feel thankful. Is my girlfriend now going to pretend that I am David Beckham? I experienced a full range of emotions from excitement to slight regret that I had maybe gotten her hopes up too high that I could perform at such a peak level as the Becks himself. Anyway..the cologne works I guess. I am probably overthinking this whole thing.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I use it when just about to go out, lasts​ a few hours at least, spraying too much could overpower you just want a hint that you have something on but the scent does fade after a few hours I personally love this scent the larger bottle was a great price I couldn't find a better price at any retail store which would be $100 or more for a bottle this size

Smells cheap

It's not a masculine scent. I received it for a Xmas gift, I would never buy any cologne by a celebrity. They have no business in making scents. They tend to lose $$$ when it comes to sales and that's reality. It smells cheap and thank goodness the scent doesn't last very long because I don't want to smell fruity all day and night.

No, I would not recommend to a friend.
