If you start looking around the web on what are the best men’s colognes, you will see La Nuit on almost every list. Critics find this fragrance, manly, sexy, long lasting, and everything else a scent should be.

But what do fellow Cologne Gurus say about this fragrance?

Ok Here We Go!

Top notes: Cardamom

Middle notes: Lavender, Virginia Cedar, Bergamot

Base notes: Vetiver, Caraway

Most powerful note – Cardamom

Once again, I was very excited to try La Nuit because of it’s reputation across the perfume worlds as an incredible fragrance. If you watched the video above, you can see how one of the most famous fragrance reviewers feel about it.

Here are just a few others…

Fragrantica – A nice discussion on fragrances that women adore… one female in particular recommended La Nuit very strongly.

CologneBuys.com – Has YSL at #2 on their list

TheTrendSpotter – Has La Nuit on their top 10

Like I mentioned, these are just a few of the more popular ones. La Nuit is a fragrances that every critic seems to like for some good reason, because it’s fantastic!

The Good

Everyone loves it. Critics, random people, everyone… If you’re looking for a fragrance that is incredible but not a lot of people wear it, La Nuit just may be the ticket.

It has moderate projection. This is awesome because you don’t have to worry about making the guy next to you sneeze or move away because you smell too bad.

La Nuit has good longevity for an EDT. The typical eau de toilette has only 4-6 hours of life and this scent carries around that.

A common similarity between fragrances that are loved by the ladies are sweet undertones to them. La nuit hits this perfectly. Although it’s a manly scent, the fragrance changes into something sweet that ladies adore. I’m excited to test this out with real women to see how they feel about it.

What Fragrances does this remind me of?

Although La Nuit does not smell like these fragrances, I would put La Nuit in the same ballpark as Fierce by Abercrombie & Fitch and also Legend by Mont Blanc.

If you have tried the La Nuit De L’Homme Frozen Cologne edition, this one is the little brother of that fragrance.
