X-Centric by Alfred Dunhill

I could not find the "Eccentricity" of this perfume at all. It is so common, actually it reminds me of several other scents. The word for it is "mediocre", and that is being generous. On the other hand, it is not repulsive, it is actually pleasant and I could wear it anytime, specially if I want to go unnoticed because it will no call the attention of anybody. (Good "camouflage" scent???) LOL

The scent's name is misleading, and that's probably the only thing worth mentioning about it.

How some guys of you manage to identify something "unique" about it remains a mystery to me. Definitley not suitable for eccentrics, rather for the average man working in an average company looking just alright, aged 40.

This is my new standard "everyday" fragrance. While there are others that are excellent for specific occasions, this Dunhill X-Centric offers up an extremely versatile frag that feels as comfortable in a suit as in jeans and a camp-shirt.

The opening is quite unique, actually. A little bit aquatic, but spiked with a warm peppery note. It dries down musky-woody, but not in the same way that every other drugstore frag does. X-Centric maintains is character, It stays more dry than sweet.

Stefan has mentioned that X-Centric smells a lot like Bond No.9 Riverside. There are certainly similarities, especially in the drydown. But Riverside has a more citrus opening and is sweeter overall. I purchased a sample of both to compare, and must say I prefer X-Centric. It's just a more distinctive scent.

The bottle is very attractive, with it's flip-down cap. But the atomizer itself is not very good. It tends to squirt kind of weakly instead of giving a good dispersion. This is not too much of an issue for me as I decant most of my regular frags into a 5mL sprayer and just use that.

Intense at first minutes, woody-spicy-fresh with some ambar tourch, many memories with this dunhill, but not in my present to wear it.

longevity and sillage are powerful..

Stefan

after smelling riverside dr by bond 9, these 2 have much more in common

Fabricio

I liked it ver much. It is in the same mood of CKs Eternity Summer for men 2005. I bought one bottle back in 2002 but never had the chance to get a new one after that. I surely recommend it though.

Probably the most fresh scent I have besides IZOD and UR by usher.

vertigo

woody-spicy;
intensive, sensual, warm, manly;
for men with a sense of individuality and inner strength;

The bottle was created by Franzrudolf Lehnert.

Cassiano

This scent is very good for the Brazilian weather. The green leaves make this cologne very fresh and comfortable to be worn. I have the impression that I have just finished to take a shower. However, it is strong and lasts for hours.
Good choice for meetings and casual encounters.

SandraS

One of my favourite scents for men. One you want to stay close and just breath deep for hours without becaming tired. it gives a sensation of freshness. As others have said its unique, very original to be used by a men of personality, by a trend setter and not a trend follower

ThePerceiver

This is a very nice and unique scent. Quite masculine for sure.

Oh, and it is X-Centric NOT X-Centic.

jeca

Intensive, with powerful cypress, very masculine, but simple. I think, in American style.
