FRAGRANCE TIPS
Men’s Cologne will generally last much longer than After Shave. However, many men choose to wear both. The fragrance lasts longer, you can use less of each, and you get the facial benefit of an After Shave.

MY FIRST THOUGHT... "LEMALE." JEFFERY 07/14/07 02:47 PM 1 out of 5 stars
212 SEXY COLOGNE REVIEW BY JEFFERY
I have been an extremely loyal and dedicated Carolina Herrera fan for years. In fact, my adoration goes back to 1999 when 212 MEN was first launched. Ever since, I've experienced perfect harmony with her fragrances. I often wondered how I have such good luck with the fragrances that she puts out. Deep in the back of my mind, I figured that at some point, my luck would stop. Unfortunately, that day came with 212 SEXY MEN. I was at work in my office when my 212 SEXY MEN arrived. I remember being so anxious to try it that I opened the box and tested it right there. Unfortunately, the first thing that came to my mind was, "This smells like LeMale!" There's a very interesting note at the start, which I really love, and it reminds me of an intense Dr. Pepper soda smell. It's really quite good, and falls in perfect harmony with the coloring of the 212 SEXY MEN packaging. Unfortunately, this experience doesn't last very long at all. A few minutes at best, and then the similarities to LeMale kick right in. For those who don't think this smells like LeMale, I think it's extremely critical to remember the original 212 fragrance and how it was even worked so nicely into the other derivatives of 212 such as 212 On Ice/212 H20, and the 212 WHITE limited editions. I find that with 212 SEXY MEN, the reference to the original has been almost hidden if not completely removed altogether. The concept and marketing for 212 SEXY MEN has been done with impeccable taste and in true "CH" style, which anyone who is interested in seeing can view here: http://www.carolinaherrera.com My favorite part of the marketing of 212 SEXY MEN is that they referenced, "New York's mythical nights." I think that was really brilliant, and quite accurate. The imagery of the Empire State Building glowing at night, in the start of the 212 SEXY MEN television spot is also quite impressive, and sets the tone for the fragrance. I have tried the scent several times after my initial encounter with it, and have had no luck whatsoever. I've tried it both on my skin, on test strips, etc. and my reaction is the same with each test. In fact, I have also tested them side by side with LeMale, and while they are different, the references to one another are so similar in some instances that they simply can't be ignored. On a good "note," I will continue to try 212 SEXY MEN to see if on some lucky day, my nose will be in perfect sync with my mind, allowing me to toss all references to LeMale out the window and to really enjoy my favorite area code (212) bototled, as it happens when the sun goes down.

I AGREE WITH MARTIN.. ANDREÈ 07/10/07 07:58 PM 4 out of 5 stars
212 SEXY COLOGNE REVIEW BY ANDREÈ
this is not like le male, i cant stand that fragance, this 212 is oriented to a floral base similar with armani code, test both the same day and you will find similarities in the spicy-floral notes.. code is going to a creamy tunes and this 212 to a oriental base.. not a hit ok ? but is a really nice fragance for evening...
