When I first sprayed this, it reminded me a lot of Cristalle EDT, with its citrus burst, herbal notes, and lingering oakmoss. Nice news--because I adore Cristalle. But as the perfume progressed it...

Very strong citrus opening. Smells to me like a bath product. Dry down is much better. Reminds me of no.19 just a little. But there is something in it I must be anosmic toward. Whenever a frag...

While this perfume is classified as a male fragrance, I find it to be unisex and more so on the female side of things. I allowed my husband to try this and he could not imagine wearing it. I...

This perfume was too "In-your-face" for me, floral mixed with citrus and leather notes is doing too much there, like a type-A personality that indeed belongs to New York. It never calms down on my...

So far, the only Nicolai scent that really struck me has been Vie de Chateau. I tested New York but I couldn't find anything interesting in it, despite the very complex pyramid that I found...

PdN New York gives the impression of leather, tobacco, iris. For men or women.

I bought a sample of NY in my first Beautyhabit sample order and it was love at first sniff. I was really surprised that it is considered masculine - I think it's very unisex, and very gorgeous! ...

At first sniff, I thought Whoa!!!!!, no way. Very masculine after-shavey. It took about 5 minutes to morph into something I kept holding my arm up to sniff closer. Very soft and aromatic. It makes...

When I first applied New York I thought it was just another typical masculine citrus chypre. Nice. Was hardly enthusiastic. Quietly hoped the lasting power would be extremely poor. Ten minutes...

Pepper? Moss? Tobacco? I only get one note: gorgeous. Wonderfully, classically elegant and refined scent with impeccable manners and great taste in clothes. I con't know if I can live up to this...

I was completely revolted during my first encounter with this; I had vision of grandmothers. However, this is one scent that grows on you. It is constantly metamorphosing on your skin; bergamot one...

This somehow reminds me of a classic oriental fragrance at the beginning - reminds me strongly of EL Youth Dew, but is more elegant and refined. After awhile the boldness dissipates leaving a...

This is a really groovy cologne that is unisex but smells undeniably sexy. I put it on in my office and a couple guys came in and said 'Something smells great!' It starts out with a lime note...

It was love at first sniff with this scent. If you like Guerlain scents, I urge you to try New York, you will love it! The top notes reminds me of Jicky, the middle notes reminds me of Vol de Nuit...

I own several PdN scents, but New York is my favorite. Originally created as a men's fragrance, women probably now outnumber men in buying and wearing this. Very strong and lovely bergamot notes...
