9IX Rocawear for men

9IX by rocawear really is a very well done fragrance and the musk, amber and timber wood really create a very alluring and warm, masculine drydown

This is not a fragrance you smell on the test strip and like immediately, it has to evolve on your skin and once you reach the actual drydown you get a great smell that everyone will enjoy

My boyfriend wears this perfume. It's beautiful.. lasts forever!

I got this fragrance for my boyfriend & he loves it :) I love it too it smells so nice & fresh. Kind of reminds me of Usher's for him fragrance.

I don't know what your poo smells like, but mine does not smell this good :P
I guess people's sense of taste is different. For instance, there is a indian/arabic sweet made from lentils that is as tasty as baklava but that westerners often compare to the taste of rotten fish. But enough about that, back to the cologne. It's really not that bad and i've gotten a host of compliments on it before. To me it carries a mysterious vibe that you don't find much on the market. Just make sure that you only put it on after a bath b/c the musk gets rancid on skin if you foolishly use it like a Frankish shower. I wouldn't buy it again (it's not worth the money) but i would buy for a nephew or cousin.

Thank you babybash44............

I am happy that someone else agrees that there is definitely a FAECAL MATTER (excrement) scent in this cologne. like i said there is a note that i can only describe as perfumed faeces

Good for the Gen Y's like myself. Fruity like smell, mango like. Smells hella good on the skin.
I rather this over the Rocawear X.

-0.5 for low radius
-1 for not lasting long enough

Rating 8.5/10
HOVA!

At first it was citrusy and nice! Then I totally smelt a note of fresh excrement. Not impressed, not happy, but extremely glad I didn't blind buy due to some good reviews. Seriously, don't blind buy this one or just don't buy at all.

When I first smelled this I liked it. But about 5 minutes later there was a distinct scent that I hated. A similar scent can be found in ESCADA MAGNETISM. I think it is saffron. I find it nauseous.
I smelled Rocawear several times just to be sure that my nose was not playing tricks on me. Lo and behold the dry down smells like someone took a little piece of FAECAL MATTER and perfumed it.

I think that this is in the same family as Kenneth Cole Reaction and Polo Explorer- same DNA
My wife thought it was just average.
My teenage daughter like it.

I got this from my girlfriend for my birthday. So what if it's a "fad" scent? What it lacks in dynamics it makes up in character. I mean Cool Water is a "fad" scent and nobody really wags a finger at it (even though it smells like dollar store potpurri!!!), but when a celebrity comes out with a decent, virile cologne, everybody thumbs their noses. Personally this is a great scent and my girlfriend can't get enough of it and once my 1.7oz runs out, i'm buying a 3.4oz.

Edit: I had this and cool water on different forearms at 2:00pm, seconds apart from each other. It is now 9 o'clock and I can still smell 9IX faintly but i can't smell cool water at all. Can you say "longevity?"

its Olfactive Group should be "Woody Aromatic"

Starts off sweet and fruity, The citrus note would be the cantaloupe more obviously than the mandarin, its not strong citrus. Then the drying down leaves the masculine, musky wood accord. A young scent, definitely for teens and young hearted souls.
One of my favourites.

I think we should all keep in mind, this fragrance is licensed to Elizabeth Arden. What that means to me: Every fragrance I have loved that I found was licensed to EA has turned cheap on the re-release. I bought Hummer and it was gorgeouse, the second bottle I bought was nowhere near the same, almost undetectable. The exact same situation occured when I bought Britney Curious, or tried Usher He, Dirty English and Rocawear 91X. So essentially, if you've owned it and loved it once, leave it at that, because chances are, it won't be anything like the first.

What I suggest: if you find, one day, tht 9IX isn't what is use to be, try Nautica Voyage. It's pretty close with the aquatic notes, though it isn't aimed at the teenage crowd.

I disagree. I don't think this is juvenille at all. My hubby is 33 and he wears this, it does not smell "young" or "teenage" at all to me. He used to always wear Drakkar, which I feel is somewhat of a classic male scent, and when he tested this one, he liked it also. I think it is a very nice, sexy, smell. It's not too "out there" like some colognes you can almost smell from a mile away (these are the ones that seem more "teenage" to me, the ones that smell like guys/men bathed in them, because that is what teenagers sometimes do) You have to get somewhat close to him to smell it, and when you do smell it, it just makes you (or at least me) just want to get closer to smell more of it! This is what exactly what a good scent should do, in my opinion. It should draw you in, and make you want to come closer. That's what this scent does, and I love it.

This is a very young, juvenile, teenage cologne! Its fresh, sweet like Pink bubble gum to my nose. While it wont offend anyone, O 1 should be so lucky! Also may I add it does not last long either, if this is what your into for a frag, than I suggest go for what you know. I wont give it a thumbs down, but I am going to give it a neutral rating on the more thumbs down side.

i wear this at school and every one says that i smell great
some times its annoying because i get told every day...

like ebento it is amazing some perfumes screams others whispers but with this one words cannot say much use it and u will notice that actions speak louder than words

I really like this scent! I think it smells fantastic on my husband, it's different from other colognes, after he wears it for a little while it doesn't smell too spicy or sweet, it just smells good, I want to hug him every time I get close enough to smell it!

True esence of HIP-HOP...I got alot more love for "The ROC" than sean john

this is one pungently intense sweet spicy scent i smell before.

I like the top notes, but not on the end notes. it is too sickly sweet and spice at the same time.

i first saw the ad in the xxl mag and i thought it would be ages before we got in in south africa .I walked into a shop and it was the first thing i saw, bought it and i give it a 100.

I watched this product fly of the shelves. So i bought it. I can honestly say that this is one of the best summer Fragrances that i have tested. It has a very calming Alluring effect on women. Not sure but if you take a deep breath. It makes you stop and think. Its was Fruity, but something interrupts the melon all the way through the notes. I believe its the coriander, and where its placed is perfect. Im not much for fruity Colognes, but this one definatley sits on top.

its allright,these FAD fragrances will have you smelling like everybody around you

I didn't think it was too strong. When my Hubby wears it, I can sense a touch of some spiceness at the beginning, but it dries down to a kind of sweet smell.

Really strong and unappealing at first, but then dies down to smell much sweeter. I think the strong musk/spice scent at first application is what makes me not a fan of this cologne. I shouldn't have to "wait" for a good scent.

spicy with a hint of musk...a totally club scent...I could not stop smelling my wrist when this was on.

It has an almost metallic aftertaste, much like paco unisex has. It lingers in your nose. It's fresh no doubt, but not intense so much as to cause a gag. It lasts a while from what people tell me, but I can't tell. Still a good buy/

tried this a few weeks ago. Love it, but if you're young and you want a good scent(all you high school guys) hint hint, then buy this....
