USED THIS COLOGNE MANY YEARS AGO AND ALWAYS ENJOYED THE FRAGRANCE, RECEIVED NUMEROUS COMPLIMENTS REGARDING IT'S USE AND GLAD TO HAVE A FRESH BOTTLE AGAIN. ARTISAN LOOKS GREAT ON YOUR VANITY OR DRESSER BUT THAT IS ONLY THE ICING ON THE CAKE. TO WEAR THIS COLOGNE IN ANY WEATHER IS A STATEMENT MADE TO ALL YOU MEET, THAT YOU ARE CONFIDENT, COMFORTABLE AND COGNIZANT OF YHE IMPRESSION YOU LEAVE ON OTHERS. AS YOUR NATURAL BODY HEAT CAUSES THE FRAGRANCE TO WAFT AROUND YOU, DO NOT BE SURPRISED WHEN THOSE YOU MEET SEEM TO BE FRIENDLIER AND ATTEMPT TO STAY NEARER. YOU ARE ACTUALLY ENHANCING YOUR OWN ATMOSPHERE. NOT A SISSY SMELL, NOT AN EARTHY SMELL. THIS IS CERTAINLY A MASCULINE AROMA THAT DOESN'T DETRACT FROM YOUR MASCULINITY NOR REINFORCE A BELIEF THAT YOU MIGHT SLEEP UNDER A BRIDGE AND USE COLOGNE TO MASK A FOUL ODOR.Read full review

It is almost silly to review this fragrance, as it has been available for years, and you can find tester sprays at almost any department store. Here goes anyway: yes, the fragrances are Tangelo, Marjoram, Thyme, Murraya, Lavandin, Kephalis, Ginger Absolute, Serenolide, Belambre, Orange Blossom, Clementine, Purple Ginger, Ginger root, Mandarin Orange, Georgywood. In other words, few of the ingredients are natural. The initial impression is herbal, almost earthy. It is subtle, not overwhelming, and not especially long-lasting as men's fragrances go. It is neither one of those fruity citrus-y splashes popular with teenagers and the timid, nor a formal fragrance - it is in-between, and suitable for the office, dates, and special occasions. The wrap is hand-woven straw, and the consumer is paying for this luxury touch. Still, the contents do not disappoint, and I recommend you try it! An additional word, beware the "flankers", the similar-looking bottles from Varvatos that ride on the coat-tails of Artisan's popularity.Read full review
