Agua Brava Antonio Puig for men

happy herbs! Not bad at all.

I have a thumbnail of this fragrance, I find it a cologne that an eau de toilette, but this is something timeless fragrance (and here I repeat myself) back in time, when during the holidays as a child I felt this grassy notes of underbrush wood and bark brittle mixed with a good dose of citrus, was and is a fragrance for adults, the bottle is reminiscent of a pebble polished by the waves of a dark green glass on which is engraved the name Agua Brava, it's great to hear him in one summer night while the crickets are serenading the moon and bleach a garden in bloom.
Has not (at least to me) a good longevity, but
This stuff is really exciting, only to find the bottle gives me the impression of being in possession of a potion or a wizard alchemist ...
Merlin please buy it ... nothing spells.

respect to a classic, my dad,who,s 83,loves that kind of colognes and suits really well to the grey folks like him

I tried and tried to like AB, but couldn't. I think it stinks. I got absolutely no citrus from this, just sage and some other heavier notes. I cannot envision anyone under 65 wearing this.

Quite spicy, woody and warm,not quite lasting but very interesting, wore it for years as daily cologne, very classic, serious and recognizable.

sometimes when i feel tired of all those modern sweet/synthetic scents, i fall back on agua brava to take that nice bath of refreshing masculine herbs
i'm 25 and i love it,
and women do too..
the bad thing is that it lasts only a little

It´s a very fresh herbal/pine/wood cologne. If you like pine, as I do, this is very nice and long lasting.

It is one of the very first perfumes I grabbed from my father, it was rather it is still definitely not for my age group. I think its for mature males. It smells quite loud and spicy perhaps unbearable to many and its totally a masculine perfume and no woman can dare to wear it. It smells rugged and rough & tough. It opens with blast of bitter herbs and spices and stays almost the same throughout its journey. Projection and Longevity is very well. It is a unique fragrance in its own way it is love or hate perfume like Grey Flannel. I have to go neutral about it. One thing more it can be made less harsh by layering it with some softer perfume like quorum silver. I like the newer version Agua Brava BRAVE which is in green bottle it is not in fragrantica database but it has got very peculiar aromatic/spicy fragrance.
I give it 6 out of 10.

Nice herbal fragrance , I really like it and used to wear this on holidays . I too have mixed this with yatagan & enjoy the mixture as i find yatagan on its own too offensive .

یکی از بهترین عطرهایی که تا به حال داشته ام و متاسفانه زیاد هم معروف و مورد قبول عامه هم قرار نگرفت و شاید یک دلیلش بسیار کلاسک و سنگین بودن رایحه آن میباشد
در بین دوستان و فامیل همیشه از این عطر من تمجید و تعریف شده و میگویند این رایحه انگار برای تن تو ساخته شده است
در زمستان و پاییز بهترین زمان استفاده از آن است
در فصول گرما باعث اذیت دیگران خواهد شد و ممکن است برای بعضی ایجاد سر درد نماید
بسیار مردانه
شیک
کلاسیک
جذاب
گرم و تلخ
خیلی قوی
خیلی با دوام
نکته حائز اهمیت این است که این ادکلن را اگر در بازار با جعبه و شیشه بدون کیفیت و حتی درب چوبی بدون کیفیت دیدید خریداری نکنید که تقلبی میباشد اصل آن هم شیشه و هم درب چوبی و هم جعبه اش دارای کیفیت میباشد درب چوبی اش از جنس چوبهای بی کیفیت نبوده و ترک ندارد
عطری برای شرقی ها و اسپانیایی ها

First notes are dominated by an aromatic blast mixed with citric notes, odd for modern day tastes, it feels quite bold. But, of course, this fools the wearer, because the aromatics give way to the citric notes one or two minutes after application, these ones playing the role of a liason between the top and the base notes. These mid notes are somehow subdued, but, nonetheless, a mark to AB's virile character. Finally, the tree and the oak moss as well as the vetiver join together as a way of remarking its classy personality: at this time, Agua Brava becomes much of a skin scent, for the olfactive journey proposed by the blend is, for sure, a very rapid one (it is an EdC).

Please be aware that in the case of AB's, more is not better: liberal sprays on skin and clothes the way someone would apply a body spray will turn the moss and the patchouli in it into a foul concoction. Also, avoid the mistake of thinking such an EdC won't get noticed an hour or two after application, I got compliments from it even though I could not get whiffs of it nor feel it.

This is a staple in my wardrobe: I like it when I don't want to wear a longevity - wise scent, generally, after taking a post - workout shower at the end of the day.

I just remember this one was one of the most famous vintage stuff in my country during late 80's. So classy and on fashion. I don't remember the scent unfortunately but I think it was more aromatic than chypre. Preferably "mehrdad" should leave a comment on this perfume, it was his best once a time.

A traditional cologne that i tend to blend with Yatagan...sometimes i spray this on the clothes and Yatagan on myself; great smelling woody and not overwhelming fragrance. Smells of herbs, citrus and wood.
