Tobacco, pine, leather, incense and arid wood. No skank or celery or marijuana. It's dry but uncluttered. If this was released today it would be a modern niche unisex cult favorite. In the past, I ...Read more

To me, smells like a scorchingly orange-hot, late-August afternoon in rural Texas... A still, old, falling-down wooden barn, alone in a dry yellow meadow, is full of haybales moldering in the airless...Read more

Wonderful scent, like others have described below, a real powerhouse earthy, leathery, spicy wonder. Reminds me of Gorgio Red, but without the sweetness and with a healthy dose of leather and animalic...Read more

Although a very masculine scent, I think a woman can pull it off if she is comfortable in such scents and I am. It is in your face in abig 80s way, use a gentle hand. It's dry, woody, incensy, spicy...Read more

To quote Curly of the Three Stooges, Try it! It's putrid!!" Nyuk-nyuknyuk... That said, it may well be an herbal vegetal fragrance, but but I love it. So many wild memories attached to this fragrance,...Read more

I would be very interested in smelling an actual man wearing this. I would admire him immensely for even trying to pull it off. On a woman, I would bow down before her. This stuff is just wacky! I had...Read more

This one walks the fine line between interestingly bold and off-puttingly strong. I get a lot of frankincense, pepper, and patchouli, all quite dry and spicy. Similar scents have worked well on me, bu...Read more

Trusting the expert's recommendations can be risky. Many scents praised by Turin/Sanchez are fantastic indeed - and I share their views - but YATAGAN is one of the most digusting things I ever smelt i...Read more

ow, this one is no joke:) I get a pungent tobaco and pine opening which in this case is not a bad thing, because it quickly transforms to leather, with a touch of animalistic scent to it. I gather fro...Read more

What a find - very inexpensive, pleasant, and long-wearing. One spritz and I was sniffing whiffs of it all day long. I am not a big fan of leathery, musky scents, but every once in awhile, I'm in the ...Read more

I find this very masculine, in fact, the most masculine fragrance in my collection. Before Yatagan, it was Aramis, which I tossed out on count it was old. I wear this quite often, even in the summer, ...Read more

Yatagan is magnificent. I hope Caron will never discontinue or change it. It would be terrific on a man, but it's also good on a woman. I love the way Yatagan opens; it smells like candied ginger p...Read more

This is a 100% masculine cologne. I would not like to smell this on a man and I would never wear it myself. To my nose (and on my skin) it's overowering leather, and arid woods. The leather is sharp a...Read more
