Joop! Jump Cologne Review

My guilty pleasure! A far cry from the original dark pink Joop! Homme, Joop! Jump is a punchy, spirited scent for men with oodles of appeal. Did I mention it has a vodka accord? Now I have your attention!
Joop! Jump is an uncomplicated fragrance that embodies some of the things we enjoy most in life: sunshine and shots! It's grapefruit / rosemary opening is aromatic, summery and vibrant, and a rich green vein of vetiver; earthy and lush. The heart is transparent with a lip-smacking vodka accord, and clean white musk. There is an underlying base of tonka and heliotrope which add a slightly creamy, saccharine texture which helps anchor this eau de toilette to your skin. If you enjoy the likes of Jean Paul Gaultier Le Male, or Paco Rabanne 1 Million, then Joop! Jump is likely to impress. It has all the markers of a fine scent that can be worn casually or for nights out on the town.
Joop! Jump is sophisticated in its simplicity, and it transcends many of the "sport" style fragrances on the market. In short, a crowd-pleasing party cologne.
CK One Fragrance Review
Most people, at some time or another, have been introduced to CK One - Calvin Klein’s best-selling fragrance chock full of universal appeal. Few scents have managed to unite the sexes in the same way CK One does!
Introduced in 1994, CK One remains at the top of its class. Its masterful composition transcends age and gender; it is celebrated the world over as a scent to be shared between all people. One scent for One race … that is, the human race.
CK One explores olfactory androgyny, and started a unisex trend in perfumery in the mid-90s that we're still seeing today. With notes that run the gamut from pineapple to papaya and violet to sandalwood, CK One is revered by men and women alike.
It has a fresh aquatic quality that's as bracing as an arctic breeze, yet it's as sunny and exciting as a sultry spring fling! Its energizing citrus opening dries down to a wonderful aromatic woody/musky base, and it radiates a general sense of vitality and well being.
CK One is a great "go-to" scent and can be worn anywhere, anytime. It is also available in a generous 6.7 oz. flacon which will allow you (and your partner, of course) the opportunity to spritz and splash with mad abandon. An essential in everyone’s wardrobe!
Terre d'Hermes Cologne Review
Terre d'Hermés is a fragrance triumph. Voted 'Best Fragrance of the Year' by FiFi in 2007 in the 'Men's Luxe' category, there is much to love in this weighty square-shouldered flacon!
Its opening accords of fresh green/orange citruses are sharp and refreshing, however, it quickly shifts into an unusual chocolatey/jaffa note, before some rich earthy and elemental accords come to the fore. It is the scent of a long-forgotten orange orchard that is overgrown and untameable... one that can only be reached by cutting through thick, tangled undergrowth that has flourished over several centuries through abandon and neglect. There is almost a sense of an "electrical storm" hanging overhead... a threatening heaviness, accompanied by the sharp spike of ozone in the air that declares when clouds, swollen with precipitation, are set to burst. One can detect the aroma of dusty, turned earth as it is speckled with fat raindrops... soil that is littered with over-ripe, mouldering oranges that have fallen from the green canopy above. Sound evocative? Well it didn’t win global accolades for nought! Definitely a highly recommended staple in every man’s collection!
Terre d'Hermes comes in two concentrations - an excellent EDT spray, and a pure parfum spray (somewhat rare amongst men's releases these days) which will last pretty much all day long.
