Diesel Only The Brave Street Eau De Toilette 75ml Spray

The scent itself opens with herbal, fresh top notes of basil, apple and bergamot. It has spicy heart of cardamon and unique licorice notes. It drys down to leave classic woody base notes of cedar and vetiver and softness with vanilla. The fragrance trail is moderate to heavy. The longevity (how long the fragrance lasts) is moderate, expect to need a top up after a few hours (4-6hrs). I’d say its for perfect for either day time or evening wear.

I searched high a low of a perfumecologne of some sort for my younger brother who is 18 years old. The issue is, I didnt want to purchase something that was insanely intoxicating and seductive. I would prefer to smell something like that on a hot guy and not my own brother. Of course smells differ from person to person. After weeks of torturing my nose with scents I finally opted for Diesel Only the Brave. Its not a heavy scent, doesnt incite nausea. I think with all perfumes and whatnot you tend to pay more because of the brand so pricing is justified based on that, still expensive unless you get a discount. Not overpowering and lasts for quite sometime when applied. I think something like this suits a young person.

I picked up a bottle of this cologne when it was first launched in 2009. At the time, I was pretty new to the world of cologne, and like any collegeaged kid I thought the bottle looked really cool. The initial spraying smelled nice and I decided to make the purchase.Today, about two years later, I have a hard time wearing the stuff. Interestingly enough, Only the Brave has good longevity, usually lasting a full day with only two or three sprays at pulse points. It also has good sillage as well, as it projects nicely even in winter weather. Moreover, I actually do get complimented on this fragrance whenever I am brave enough to wear it.I cant help but feel that the smell is overall too generic and synthetic though, and nothing really stands out to me. To be perfectly ... MoreI picked up a bottle of this cologne when it was first launched in 2009.

To be perfectly honest, I feel a lot younger wearing this, and I dont mean in the good Im 35 and feel 25 way but in the bad Im 25 and feel 15 way. In that sense, I feel I also should be wearing a pair of very baggy jeans, and a popped collar on my polo shirt while wearing this fragrance as I parade around high school after bathing in entirely too much of it.I dont hate Only the Brave, I just dont much care for it anymore now that Ive sampled and owned so much cologne over the years and found things that really do stand out and that I quite enjoy. I can still wear it, and I sometimes do, but I cant help but feel there is much better out there. Even within the Diesel house, both Fuel For Life Plus Plus have places and uses in my collection. Only the Brave doesnt so much anymore.Though, I still think the bottle is cool.
