That said it's actually really likeable. Unique, No, but given its bargain price it's a really good fresh out of the shower smell, with great longevity. opens on my skin with a green,masculine,slightly resinous and citrusy lavender mingled with juniper. Many people say that this Cerruti reminds them of the past, connecting this perfume with something old like grandpa, smell of barber shop and so on, right or wrong ? The opening (only around 30 seconds or so) is slightly harsh to me but soon calms down and becomes fresh, green and strong.

Cerruti 1881 Perfume Samples UK are available at perfume-samples.co.uk. Who said '90s fragrances are no longer wearable? Cerruti 1881 Men is a very nicely crafted barbershop/aromatic concoction that opens with a fresh and classy lavender/bergamot/juniper accord, very much in the rein of many of the '80s powerhouse fragrances but with a touch of mentholic bitterness which I assume comes from the cypress.

Find in store

Edit: I think I didn't give this enough of a chance, and I even ended up selling my Boucheron bottle in the end. Boucheron is gorgeous, don't get me wrong, but it's pretty solidly perfume-y. This is quite a similar vibe in the air, but it's slightly more casual, and much less heavy and strong. This is a clean brisk green soap. Recommend. I blind bought as it was cheap, which was another oddity. A fragrance so new it wasn't even on Fragrantica nor did it have a tester (in the store I went to) and yet was already reduced in the bargain bin?

Apply it to your body warmest points, such as crease of your elbows and wrists that intensifies longevity of the fragrance.Nevertheless, its overarching green theme some consistency and the notes are brought together through fresh accords.

It is one of the 80's aromatic fougere beastie mode frags that still sells today; Thanks god for it as it would be a shame not being able to buy this Cerruti masterpiece any longer. I get three distinct phases out of this fragrance. In the opening I get a blast of lavender, juniper and cypress with other green notes making the scent smell herbaceous. It's a bit rough for the first forty minutes and then settles down nicely and reminds me of Lauder For Men. I've been wearing this to work for a few days now and I like it more and more each time. A blast of citrus/ oranginess followed by some agreeable marine notes that don't get too 'minty' unlike other 'Blue' aquatics. Cerruti launched 1881 Pour Homme Aftershave by Cerruti in 1990 as an aromatic fougere fragrance for Men. 1881 Pour Homme fragrance starts with lavender, carnations, galbanum, juniper and cypress then moves onto a blend of vetiver, ylang-ylang, rose, lily-of-the-valley and cassia then finishes off with musk, patchouli, sandalwood, oakmoss, cedar, pepper and pint tress to create this charming scent. It’s hard to escape the initial impression of a barbershop combination with soapy undertones. The fragrance seems to target an older audience, arguably those aged 40 and above. Imagine walking into a room filled with leather-bound books and the lingering scent of vintage aftershave — there's a distinct, nostalgic aroma of old books.I hate to say this, and especially as the first review but I was disappointed with this release from Cerruti. Yet, its very unremarkableness makes it somewhat agreeable for specific occasions. While not a standout, it's a fitting choice for a rainy spring day, emitting an uncomplicated freshness. However, the scent does have a sharp quality, almost piercing to the eyes and nose, undermining its otherwise mild and delicate profile. Its beasty longevity is easily 14+ hours. You may over spray a bit - 4 sprays not more - for a bigger sillage. I've never smelled PR Invictus, which this is being called a clone of, but I'd rather pay the asking price for this and it's fantastic bottle than 3 times as much for a gaudy bottle knowing so many other great, sophisticated scents are available at the higher price point. The mixed bouquet of floral and citrus notes takes away the brash masculinity that this fragrance could have. However, certain woods and aromatics ensure that this is conventionally moderate as masculinity goes. That said, it is often referred to as something of a macho Italian dad fragrance.
