Truefitt & Hill Luxury Cologne - Grafton - Premium Long-Lasting Amber and Leather Men's Fragrance Presented in a Beautifully Etched Traditional Atomizer Bottle - 3.38 oz.

I like the smell, it’s not too overpowering and your nose gets used to it pretty quickly so be careful not to apply to much otherwise it could be overwhelming for others around you

This is my third purchase of Trafalgar. I like the fragrance very much. Especially pleasant in the Spring and Summer.

Great product, timely delivery.

Awesome fragrance!!! My ladies love it!!!

Very good quality

Smells great 💯, I just wish they had a "perfume" version where the scent would stay with you longer!, the fact that it where's off to fast makes it not worth the almost $100 I paid for it!, should be at least $30 cheaper!

Great light scent.

A brief blurb to place my fragrance sensibilities: I'm a middle-aged professional man, father, who enjoys a nice wardrobe, including fragrances. My collection is considerable, numbering in 'several hundreds'. I enjoy anything that is well put together, smells pleasant, and has acceptable longevity. I despise cloying fragrances, especially artificial ones, cheap, synthetic "woods and spices" types (astringent old-man smells), and many "red" fragrances for lack of a better term, based on cinnamon, cardamom, amber. Things often called "Desire" or "Night". I love aquas, chypres, florals, fougeres, oudhs, attars, orientals. Good ones anyway.I was very excited to try Truefitt & Hill after reading reviews here as well as on basenotes.net. It sounds like a great British perfumer; similar to Czech & Speake and among their full range of fragrances, it sounds like it's hard to go wrong. I purchased 5 of them: Trafalgar, Grafton, Freshman, Clubman, and West Indian Limes.Trafalgar, as with the other bottles, has a terrific presentation. The box is ornate and very neat; the bottle is heavy, solid, has a matching ornate label on the front and a gorgeous etched pattern on the back. Wonderful.The fragrance itself is a bit of a letdown. The topnote was lemon. One of the better, natural, lemon-forward scents I have experienced. The mid-note begins to dry down into a really subtle, pleasant jasmine and what seems like a seriously subtle hint of rose. Then, the basenote... lemon. Just lemon. I couldn't pick up anything else. I had a clean palatte and really, it's pure lemon. I simply can't pick up anything T&H describes this fragrance as having.Additionally, the longevity is dismally bad. After an hour the sillage was down to about 1 inch from the application, and after about 3 hours, there was no trace whatsoever. I chose to move on trying something else; I didn't even need to wash my skin or change shirts. It was simply gone.It does appear to be high-quality, as every review does claim about other T&H fragrances. It seems to be very natural, and as such, it's tough to combine that with longevity. I'm thinking Creed; some of those fragrances are spectacularly nice, but don't last.The fragrance is so linear, one-dimensional... it's an excellent lemon-forward fragrance if that's what you're after, but it really is nothing more than that, just a great natural lemon. There's just a bump in the midnotes that you won't notice if you aren't really paying attention, smelling for it. The longevity isn't even half-day, so it won't last you until a lunch date. For the price, the lemon just doesn't add up.I'm still very optimistic about the other ones. I will review them all in turn. However, this one leaves a lot to be desired; it's OK, short-lasting, and not special, not unique. I would have loved it if that jasmine kept blooming in the basenote but instead it receded behind the lemon. As far as this particular scent, I can't endorse it simply because of the price. It'll be nice enough to wear but really isn't exceptional and is overpriced for what it is / does.Cheers.
