New York
Eau de Toilette
by PARFUMS DE NICOLAI



The Scoop
As dynamic and seductive as the great city itself, and as difficult to properly describe with mere words. The opening is citrus, there are spices aplenty, there is gorgeous powdery amber and there is snappy vetiver – but they all come together in a magnificent way that is far more than the sum of its parts. Simply put, this smells incredibly good. Mellow, polished, deep, spicy, complex and seductive. We could see a suave millionaire playboy wearing this, especially if he’s secretly a superhero, as well. Sexy and confident.

This is one of the fragrances in my husband's current rotation, and probably the one I like best on him of all the things he has worn over the years. Whenever he is wearing it, I just want to keep smelling it. It really is hard to pin down--although it does contain citrus, spices, amber, and so forth, no one note really stands out. All the notes just blend together so well into a wonderful, smooth, classy whole. To my mind, this is what a classy men's fragrance should be. It is so much better than all those characterless "sport" scents on the market, and yet it is not at all weird or edgy like so many niche scents. At the risk of sounding as if I am damning with faint praise (and I certainly don't mean it that way), it just smells really, really good.

Incredibly suave, smooth, nuanced, refined and leaning towards the masculine. Handsome like no modern masculine is handsome. Nicolai fragrances are blended with supreme elegance for supreme uniqueness; they make department store fragrances seem like AXE by comparison. I know New York is the suggested locale here, but this fragrance smells somehow Asian to me... like tatami flooring and bamboo buildings, or reedy, like a fine Panama hat. A man could wear it informally, but in a tux or costly suit is where NEW YORK belongs. Has a "James Bond" kind of ultra-suaveness... sure to be swoonworthy to women who buy it for their men.

Luca Turin, the Emperor of Scent, gives de Nicolai's New York his highest praise when he writes, "I wore it for a decade." This is one intoxicating woody oriental.

I ordered a number of samples from this site, and this is the first one I tried. It wasn't love at first sniff, as New York seemed a bit too traditional for my modern aesthetic, but as the day wore on the scent grew on me until six hours later I found myself sitting in a chair with my nose buried in my wrists, waving away anyone who looked like they might want to start a conversation. This is really good stuff, expertly balanced. It's vanilla and dry wood, a touch of citrus flowers and incense smoke, clean leather and burnt sugar. It smells like good whiskey with a splash of Drambuie. It feints and thrusts and parries throughout the day without ever going overboard. I don't agree (at all) with the reviewer who said it smells like Old Spice. This is a more sophisticated fragrance of corner offices, conference calls, power lunches and leather upholstered bars whose glowing shelves are lined with bottles of single malt scotch. A classic.

So smoothe. The transition from the warm bergamot opening through the peppery spices and into the vetiver/amber basenotes is the smoothest transition of any fragrance I've smelled. Warm and nearly perfect.

Actually, I've worn this for a few years now, and people often ask me about it. Sometimes they're surprised to hear that it's a man's fragrance, sometimes not. But as a woman, I'd find it heavy in summer and only wear it in the cooler seasons ...

Nice, elegant. Dated IMHO, but not without consideratble charm.

A wonderful citrus/spice/amber fragrance with depth and longevity. It's heady and the amber makes it slightly powdery. This is an elegant, sexy, masculine frag., that IMO can be worn in any season, for any occasion. Old Spice this definitely is NOT!!!
