Chrome cologne1/3/2024 Still a great performance value, for the price.Ĭhrome can easily be worn year round. I’m not sure how long it continues after that, but sprayed on a t-shirt, Chrome just kept on going. It’ll go 7-8 hours, off of 2-3 sprays, before become a complete skin scent. Updating this review here in 2020, I still find the longevity to be really good. However, the initial burst, will provide plenty of power. I’d say that the sillage overall, is pretty middle of the pack, once it settles. Chrome does settle down a bit, but it can be overwhelming if too much is used, in the wrong climate. It does seem to be pretty strong right out of the bottle, so there’s no need for more than a couple sprays. How Long Does Chrome Last? How Strong is the Sillage? It isn’t a complex fragrance at all really, just one that is straightforward with a clean, soapy, citrus, masculine aroma. Chrome becomes a clean woody scent, with citrus sitting on top of it, and the floral notes don’t seem as relevant anymore.Ĭhrome is just really vibrant and reminds me of a sunny summer day. The musk isn’t heavy, but it is noticeable. The notes that emerge during this time, are the various woods, and the musk. I like the dry down period quite a bit, and it does have a metallic vibe to it as the name suggests, but I don’t think it distracts from the overall presentation. Thankfully, they didn’t overload the neroli and jasmine, to make it a bath soap-like scent, those notes are empowered just enough to make Chrome smell great. The first hour or so, is really all about being a citrus/floral fragrance, with a light aquatic and soapy character. It’s similar to that note in Acqua di Gio, but these are ultimately pretty different fragrances. It has an aquatic-like smell at times, without having any oceanic notes, which is a nice little trick of the mind.Īfter the first few minutes, where neroli is powerful, the rosemary begins to come through with that herbal spiciness. The top is very similar to CK One, that citrus/floral aroma, has lots of overlap with that 1990s showstopper.Ĭhrome always induces thoughts are bright and sunny days, in the summer. Obviously, this flower plays perfectly off of the citrus top, and is joined by a light jasmine note. It is interesting how refreshing and bright this fragrance smells, it feels quite sharp and fresh. The first thing you notice about Chrome is the citrus notes, mainly a blend of lemon and pineapple. “A harmony as pure as metal, a blend of strength and complicity.” Notes include: neroli, lemon, bergamot, rosemary, pineapple, musk, woods, and jasmineīefore we get into my review, let’s see how Azzaro describes it: Fresh, vibrant, aquatic, woody. Not very close, but the closest I can think of.Click here to try: Men’s Chrome by Azzaro Eau de Toilette Spray – 3.4 oz. I give this an excellent rating based on the fact that it should be in all men's collections.Īs a mild comparative reference, I would give Curve and Burberry Touch 4 stars each since they are the only fragrances that come close to Chrome's scent. My sister also appreciates this fragrance on her boyfriend, so there's a woman's opinion to go along with the other women's opinion in this particular forum. Ultimately, you cannot go wrong with Chrome. I tend to use Chrome when I don't want to overpower an audience which is why it has been used more often than most other fragrances in my relatively extensive collection. Since Chrome is not particularly a strong fragrance, application to pressure points coupled with a sunny day will tend to aromatize the light Chrome fragrance on your skin. It's perfect for use on a nice spring or summer day. As I take a whiff of the nearly depleted bottle of Chrome by Azzaro, it definitely has an aquatic scent with perhaps a minimal, underlying citrus scent.įormal or informal? Definitely informal.
