This stuff is AMAZING!!!
This fragrance is AMAZING!!! They need to update the description though because this product is an Unisex item, and I'm definitely a man! I got tired of buying the samples and my wife decided that it was time to get the whole bottle because she loved the smell so much! My only complaint is that I wish it held as long as other fragrances, but the initial contact from it is everything! I definitely receive positive comments when I wear this fragrance, and I highly recommend it for any man that's looking to turn some heads and receive some attention LOL!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Disappointing
I really wanted to like this, but it's just not even in the game. Scent doesn't have to be large, but it should at least be noticeable. To say this is a skin scent is an understatement. No projection ... none. I've always heard that Bond No. 9 was really hit or miss, mostly miss. I can now corroborate that.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.
