    Man, you are quickly becoming one of my favourite reviewers, and cool that you are giving 212 some love, an all time classic and hands down the best fragrance from CH (sorry CH Men and Privé). Scentwise, one of the best green scents ever created, as for performance, after who knows how many reformulations, still a beast! You cannot ask for much more... Great review!

    I still love and owe this more than 14years... still one of my fav & no others brand can replace this scent. Unique smell. Even though not much ppl wear this, but when someone does wear it and walk past, I will smile because they use 212 Men :D

    Actually it's a very popular fragrance, it's been in the top 10-20 list since it's release and it's Carolina Herrera flagship scent it's their personal top selling fragrance. Just because you don't smell it much in the community doesn't change anything. It's interesting most men don't wear fragrances.

    I picked up the little bottle super cheap from Fragrancenet (blind buy) smells somewhere between good and great and it performs well on my skin and a spray or two on my clothes and I'm good for 8+ hrs easily .. and I've gotten a fair share of compliments. For the price I have absolutely zero complaints

    I bought 212 back in December 2022. I have great memories from a holiday years ago wearing this. Difficult to gauge if it's as good as the original because it was so long ago, what I can say however is it smells how I remember and performs really well on me. CH Chic arrived today too, I'm just about to test!

    My uncle had a bottle of the original version in the 90’s ... one of the best colognes I had ever smelled as a kid... fast forward to now... I came across this very version ( 212 men nyc ) thinking it was the original ... to me it just don’t have the kick to it like I remember, hence to why I see everyone saying it’s somewhat watered down and has no longevity ... but I’ve read some like it... I want to return it but I may just roll with it to see how it performs ... thanks

    i get absolutely no longevity issues with this one. even hours later when i can't smell it & hav returned home my wife is like "why are u spraying on cologne at home?". My rainy day scent along with Cool Water. (which i wore today). If i'm doing something, i go with 212 Men, if it's just a casual runaround, i go with Cool Water

    Hope u didn't purchase from grey market. Also the way, temperature at which it's stored in the stores is important. Never buy the one's kept on display with light bulbs around'em. Also skin chemistry differs. U cam try one puff each beneath a 100% cotton shirt and check the longevity. 212 men is such a beast that one may get a whiff even after a wash...

    Reformulated ruined watered down crap = current formulation 212, must be the heat that makes it perform because this stuff was gone on my skin within 3 hours and was a skin scent in 15mins. Pleased you get good performance with it Joy 👍hope your well brother.
