to me it has that something very luxurious for fashonistas...the name Douglas Hannant reminds actually of the fashion designer with the same name, so it is very representative.It is a very modern, cosmopolite scent.I love it.Lasting power: 6 hours on my skin,and moderate to heavy projection.
i also believe it's that kind of perfume with social skills so to speak, because it generally leaves a very good impression among men and women...
This is Fracas Light with a pear topnote. It is a very nice perfume, but as others have remarked, very linear.
For some obscure reason my earlier review of Douglas Hannant was removed. I don't recall being politically incorrect! I stand by what I said - it's strident and obdurately linear. I kept waiting for signs of life but to no avail! Either that or my olfactory attributes have hibernated. I don't recall jasmines, gardenias and other whites being so shrill, so bitter. Fragrances normally mellow out on my skin, but not this one. It remains after four hours as blindingly monochromatic as it started out!
Definitely shades of Fred Hayman 273. And Giorgio, Interesting that packaging on both is terrifyingly yellow! Very Unjasminey to me, all three. But I do very well with the other Piguets, especially Calypso.
No doubt my chemistry is to blame, Mr. Hannant.
What i can say bout this douglas its a bloom floral when i spry on my neck.. it so attempting smell.. expecialy in hot weather like malaysi its make me feel like a queen among the people... best compliment ever!! love it... <3<3<3<3<3<3<3
Mix this one with epic from amouge theres no doubt for me. sweat for a long hot sumer days i still smell good in any weather condition
I tend to always go for florals, so this is a good introduction to other types of scents (as it is mostly floral with some fruity/ soapy notes). It is quite sweet but not overpowering. A good every day (feminine) scent, that can also be worn at night. Lasting power is pretty good. I sprayed it on my wrist and could still smell it 3-4 hours later, though slightly faded.
I own a bottle and will be experimenting more. :)
It's a nice perfume, it smells indeed a litlle bit like Fracas, but this one is soapy, while Fracas is creamy and much classier.
If Fracas is Grace Kelly, this Douglas Hannant may be identified with Duchess Kate or any other contemporary style icon. Elegant and classy but unmistakably modern without having the cheap soapy feeling too many contemporary creations do possess.
If you love Fracas and you consider it as a standpoint with no followers, then you might be disappointed with DH, but if you see Fracas as an opportunity and your horizons are wide enough, this is a wonderful alternative.
The pear not is not too prominent, it just melts into the tubereuse and the gardenia and gives a little boost.
I am usually a purist and love the scents of the past, but this one does have something that makes me want to wear it every day.
I haven't smelled Fracas, so I have no comparison to it, but I can't stop smelling my wrist! This one is heavy on gardenia then comes the tuberose. I'm missing the orange flower and pear, but I'm sure they are in there somewhere. So far it's the perfect amount of floral and sweetness.
Longevity is very good and sillage is also good. This fragrance is definitely wearable to the office and any occasion day or night.
A very nice fragrance for white floral lovers!!
This is a strange ultra-strong sickly overly fruity pear-version of FRACAS. Think it's intended to attract a younger crowd to Piguet-perfumes, considering the fruity-punch a'la FRACAS-gone-bad. FRACAS is nice and classy. This made me feel real sick. Had to wash it off. (Ps. I own FRACAS -and love it)
Douglas Hannant spoke recently with regard to the launch of his inaguaral scent and after I was given a sample and... it appears to be a winner (we will see after my lady wears it out)! Classy and elegant but not in that "born to the manner" way. This is very approachable.
Put tuberose, gardenia and jasmine together and things get intoxicating but this done without the sledgemhammer!
Ok, the notes as I kscent them to be: orange blossom (love it) is short lived and works well with the gardenia. But, they soon depart and the march of the tuberose comes by (strong but restraint) and hangs around for awhile before the base of musk and sandelwood rounds it out.
Sillage is nice and longevity is most excellent.
This is indeed the new Fracas, but younger, rich, fruity and floral - very modern.
If I would not know, it´s from Douglas Hanannt/Piguet, I could swear, it´s from Guerlain.
The head smells like orange blossoms and is not too strong. It is really captivating. The middle notes is all about tuberose, but not so artificial, like Fracas is, but more naturally, exactly like Carnal Flower smells. This middle notes lasts much longer than Carnal Flower. DH lasts the whole day on me and became more and more intensive. For this reason I guess, they added aldehydes into it, too. Even the next day I got a nice whiff of it. If you like tuberose, loud and long lasting fragrances and fragrances like Carnal Flower, Fracas (which is more simpler, tamer and not so loud), and for example Blonde, you would love it.
A scent for all time - day or night and a perfect scent for hot and warm days. You can wear it in the office and in the bar also. But you have to test it, because it´s really strong tuberose in the middle part.
I am jumping around very happy to discover such a beautiful tuberose and orange blossoms fragrance!!!
It took a long time before I got to hear of a new Piguet fragrance.
I am not so much into florals but I can't wait to test this one, I do not know when it comes out here in Italy but it would be great to hear from fragranticans who have acces to it sooner
