Yachtsman Fragrances is an American perfume house debuting in 2010 with four fragrances: CABO, TOBAGO, ZANZIBAR, HOME PORT. Five more perfumes are to be launched this and next year (2011). The house was founded by the avid sailor and perfumer John Verde. The idea was born in 1995, but it took 15 years of explorations and passionate work before he was confident enough to say that his fragrances were ready for the public.

We have 25 winners(!) of the Yachtsman Fragrances give-away today. Each of them will get a gift box with two 5 ml trial-size roll on bottles. Each winner will choose two fragrances he/she wants, + 2 ml samples of another two. Fragrantica and Yachtsman Fragrances are thankful to everybody who wrote his/her vision of a new Yachtsman fragrance. We wish you luck in our future competitions!

Congratulations! Dear Winners, you will be contacted by the perfumer John Verde, please prepare your choices of two perfumes. Another two you will get as 2 ml samples.
The contestants that didn't win can get four samples with 2 ml of each fragrance. To get them please register with the Yachtsman Fragrances site (you can copy your fragrance story from Fragrantica and paste it in the Comments field on the Yachtsman Fragrances site).
Please visit the official site of Yachtsman Fragrances
I just wanted to say that although I was supposed to be one of the winners..
All I got in my mailbox was a few 2ml sample vials of the fragrances..
It's ok though!
Thanx John Verde!
Thank you Jon Verde.
I received my samples today and am sniffing them all trying to figure out what to write about each one. Give me a few more days though because I have sinusitis at the moment and my sense of smell is not quite right.
Still waiting for my samples. Maybe I'll get them in 26 july when is my bday. What a great present for my birthday hehe :D
Tobago is my favorite. Then Home Port. These are all very nice frags. Thank you for doing this promotion. It was fun!
I received the fragrances yesterday, Thank you very much Jon Verde.
My favourites are Zanzibar and Tobago and my brother loves Home Port and Tobago.
I received my samples today. I'm so excited!
I have smelt them from the samples and all are really fresh, green, woody and inspiring.
Now I'm wearing a drop from Home Port sample. It's so soapy and clean!
I will review all of them here in some days.
Thank you!
Thank you Jon Verde! I received my gift today. In one word I would say beautiful fragrances. I will write my reviews one by one. I will say about the fragrances that you definitely created them keeping the fragrant air of the places in your mind 'cause when I sniffed them one by one I felt my self at those places and felt as if I was sitting by the breezy air of the sea. I can predict that Yachtsman is soon going to become a name in the world of fragrances. Wish you all good. And how can I forget to thank Fragrantica for this beautiful gift.

John thank you, I received my samples yesterday. Can't wait to testing each one. I always test scents out three times before I write a comment/review or even purchasing.
Just from sniffing them from the samples, Tabago may be the winner and the one added to my collection.
I love exploring new fragrances because they allow me to travel to different worlds.

I'm still waiting for my samples and I'm looking forward to trying them.
I'm in the mood for fresh scents these days.
As promised John Verde sent me the 4 Yachtsman fragrance samples, and quickly too! Thank you very much! So far, I've enjoyed trying and have been happy to have reviewed Tobago and Zanzibar, and look forward to testing the remaining two.
Jon Verde wrote me and told me that he didn't recieve my two choices of fragrances. Are we supposed to write our fragrance choices in the comments box? Thanks
Just received a message too. :) Well, I just wondered if there was another person in the same situation as me. But okay. Thank you again, Jon.
Yes, I also received a message from Jon Verde. Could you all please tell me if you also wrote down your mailing address on the Yachtsman Fragrances website or just wrote down the e-mail address. As of me, I just mentioned my email address as I thought the team would email me back and would ask my mailing address.
