Imagine drakkar noir with some of that classic green palm olive dish soap to it. They added that extra bright bit of greeness to it with the dish soap to try and make it more youthful. If you like drakkar noir you'll like this. If you are smelling it up close the dirtiness from the patchouli and anything else goes away. If it was the scent alone I'd certainly rate it higher. However, the issue is that the longevity on this is a joke. Even wearing 10 sprays without any of the tricks to get the longevity to improve you're lucky to get 5 hours out of this. This is an easy to wear fragrance in almost any situation, mid 20s to early 30s minimum. You wouldn't get noticed in a club due to the poor projection, at most this is a school scent or something to wear to the office if you've got that one co-worker who claims they don't like fragrances. At the end of the day, if you like drakkar noir but want a more modern take on it, try something else like nuit d'issey (edt) by issey miyake or something else.
