Image Cerruti for men

Cerruti Image, is a very fresh scent, rather than call it fruity, almost sweet, in essence, that has water that can remember the harvest.The fruit that stands out with strength and delicacy at the same time is the pear, this fragrance is the perfect for me in the spring when the flowering trees give off those scents that are transported by the wind, but as Image capture the senses, the delicacy of envi scent is irresistible, could be counted among the classics of perfume, but it has an edge and its name is a guarantee, I am still admired since the first time I had the chance to smell it, I was transported back in time when a child on the way to school was a fruit shop, and when you I entered I felt the smell of the fruit for sale, some of those emotions is trapped or better infused into this gem ...
Cerruti Image Madeleinette like Proust?

Crisp, bright, green, fruity, slightly sweet and transparent. It starts with pear, mint, pepper and some green notes. Then floral and fruity notes take over the construction. Base notes are made of light sandalwood, vetiver and musk. It's incredibly nice and inoffensive. It works for me as a perfect office and spring time scent. I think it is more refined alternative to the popular mainstream aquatic/woody crowd. It attracts girls' attention due to light, clean, refined and kind of laidback (nomen omen) image it creates. Longevity is good (6-8 h) and silage is low. The only downturn is that it sometimes gives me a migraine. Can be acquired at very low price. 7/10

This smell like an alcoholic pear/plum drink which is so refreshing and great for the summer.

Very interesting fragrance. It starts citrusy and joyful. I couldn't notice any fruity notes at this point, neither plum nor pear.
After maybe 15 mins on my skin it started to smell like thick marmalade, became sweeter, with notes of caramel and maybe vanille.
Now, after 2 hrs. the dryout makes me think of a precious book which has been kept in a cupboard with many marmalade jars. It has something cultured, preserved, ancient. I like it.
Sillage and longevity are average.
I disapprove however the spray mechanism. It looks peculiar, but instead of a cone it delivers a cloud, so if you want to apply the Edt on yourself instead of the atmosphere, you have to do it close range.

so fresh, fruity and woody

like this one alot. my father had it. but now i can not find it anywhere. so fresh and cool. best in spring/summer

A very nice and long lasting fragrance. A tarragon/pear start, and a lovely fresh soapy drydown. One of Cerutti's best in my opinion.

Notes / scent: 3
Longevity / sillage: 3
Overall / subjective feelings: 3.5
Description: perfect mix of everything, hard to separate any component
Short opinion: It is said to be distinguishing. But for me it is just average, maybe a little bit better than ordinary.

Image is a very nice clean out of the shower type scent! It is crisp & beautiful for spring /summer days right after a shower! Had a change of heart, longevity is about 8 hours, altho it does seem to become faint the longer it is on your skin, but it is still there! & yes spray on alot! You wont overdue it!

I had this back in 2000 and reminded me of hitting the town with old friends. Forgot about it then Christmas 2008 was in TK Maxx and found a big bottle for £20, couldnt say no to it! Fond memories of this one!

it's a more refined scent for an older guy and a bit strong........go easy!

Love this fragrance... it really is a chick magnet, the girls love the smell, specially on summer time. Keep one bottle handy for an ocasional re-apply and you are good to go.

I agree with tommy_girl about the hugo boss comment. What the other commenter say about the longevity is true too which is probably why I see my husband constantly dousing himself in the stuff to the point where he broke the lever on all three bottles purchased. I like the lingering musk and wood notes, I can always pick it out in a crowd and yes it does attract women.

I bought this one unsmelled as there were no testers. It is not very common here in Australia, and so when I saw it on sale I bought it. On paper the notes seem very interesting (especially the base notes). Vetiver, patchouli,cedar and sandalwood are commonly recurring notes in my favourite fragrances and they are all listed as ingredients.

From reviews I read I could see that this one might be a bit of a risky proposition: mainly in terms of its strength and longevity.


What swayed me to buy it was the bottle:
it is a work of art. The lever dispenses the fluid really well. The fluid itself is crisp and green and opens with mint, pepper and fruit notes. They are all so subtle that it is hard to pick out too many individual notes.

This is sharper than the majority of fresh fragrances I have experienced, yet at the same time manages to be relatively unobtrusive.
I read a reviewer somewhere say words to the effect that it is impossible to overapply this fragrance. This is pretty much true.

The woody notes like the other notes are subtle and never really exert their own individual characters, but work quietly in the background.

After half an hour or so, there is a similarity with Bulgai pour Homme: it is one of those fragrances that are almost not there, but which still exert enough character for other people to detect them on you. I much prefer this one to Bulgari.

Longevity is an issue for me: It lasts for less than 3 hours.

This is an interesting addition to my collection and definitely has a unique place. I just need to make sure I have it handy to re-apply. Often. The sprayer mechanism is too much fun. You know what they say small things amuse small minds.

Remember the Meaow Mix commercial???
Apply that tune:

Bland, bland,
Bland, bland,
Bland,
Bland, bland,
Bland,

get my drift?

Don't get me wrong, I do not dislike it, just too bland, but that can be good, perfect for the office, if you must commute in a crowded intercity bus o metro, for a job interview, etc.

the last time i worn this was in 2007 got it from a perfume shop in mid valley kl, and I think it's an old stock already. I first tried this in 2000

I can't tell how insane I am to smell this perfume again!I remember about 8 years ago,when it was just launched I found it easily in stores and I was crazy about it as one of the rare male perfumes that I loved,but now I don't find it in any store where I live.I even don't remember exactly how it smelled.I just remember that it was incredible.the interesting point for me is that the designer(Nose Ursula) is the nose behind hugo boss,hugo(f) which is another my favorite perfume of all the times too.

Great fragance, fruity and woody, well balanced. Best when you wear it in spring/summer. Women loves it.
