I never realised that so many of the fragrances I have loved over the years were in fact created by the same man so thank you for creating this post! Mania is seriously underrated, I belive it's because it's overshadowed by Armani Code namely and other men's fragrances in the Armani line.

Stays close to the skin but emerges in the most wonderful way as your body temp goes up a little (on a lunch hour walk). About that; ol Kurkdjian said in an interview once that this was his favorite designer he'd ever done at the time, which really didn't hurt its legacy now that he's celebrated himself. For example, I learned upon re-purchasing this old favorite that I no longer needed Jack Black's Blue Mark, Ineke's Derring-Do, YSL's L'Homme Libre, and C. way though it could easily be unisex, airy moist and fresh sort of spring water fantasy like, very likeable and appealing, open and light ideal for daytime, is this sexy or seductive? Its not only that I've smelt this frag a hundred times before, or that so many people wear it, it's that I've been told by SO MANY sales-monkeys to try this one and I never do.You won't stand out in a huge crowd, but whoever is next to you will notice you're wearing something distinct, refined.

Many reviews I've read have put Mania down saying it's nothing special, but I disagree - I really like it. As you might suspect, this was the designer doldrums whipping boy of its era much like whichever Bleu de Chanel (2010) clone or Dior Sauvage (2015) smell-alike would be to anyone in the late 2010's.I bought this perfume for my then boyfriend now husband when it first released and he has never been without it. Fragrance itself is lets say enjoyable but I could definitely live without this one and still prefer Code or very similar Burberry rhythm 1 or Allure. Its potential for seduction think no more than a first impression, it is relatively easy to confuse their scent.

So then you get boring, been-there-done-that cedar for another measly hour or so before Mania completely craps out into a thin veil of woods and white musk, nothing more than a skin scent if that.

My wife had trouble even detecting it on me while we drove to work this morning, even sniffing at my wrist. I used to get many compliments wearing it, I found that I could wear it in various situations as well.I am so upset I started wearing this 15 years ago as a newly wed- ironic we finalized the divorce this year.
