This one didn't meet my expectations. It doesn't smell BAD; however, it is very average and smells like any other "sport" version of a cologne. I can say that I haven't had a single compliment on the smell. To me, it's the kind of cologne that you can take with you to the gym, or if you go to the lake or something and want to freshen up after a swim, without wasting an expensive cologne. But for Issey Miyake, it's a let-down. Not an every day cologne, and definitely not a date cologne.
