Bang! by Marc Jacobs 2010
Fragrantica gives these featured accords:
Top: Black, white and pink pepper
Heart: Woody notes
Base: Elemi resin, aromatic benzoin, vetiver, white moss and patchouli
I am a massive fan of wearing men’s cologne, this is a different smell than I would normally wear but I really enjoyed wearing this.
It opens with an almost sparkling green note which is the vetiver already going strong. There is this warming sensation where the black, white and pink pepper comes through, the spice from the pepper combined with benzoin and vetiver makes this fragrance effervescent yet warm.

I am a very visual person and when I smell this I see a young well dressed guy. He has a good job, very caring and sweet, pretending to be a player. This is a sexy though somewhat comforting fragrance. Very easy to wear, über masculine to boot. Bang guys are date-able, maybe even marriage material.

I too am a big fan of men’s colognes to wear on myself! You have made Bang sound very appealing…and I like the visuals as well :D!!! Nice way to spend my Monday morning!

I do have to admit that I like how Bang! smells. Although, the ads and the marketing turn me off so much, I avoid it 😦 With all that foil, I can’t help but feel that MJ is about to be roasted like a baked potato . . .

Not a fan of the visuals of the ad, but I like men’s colognes too – in fact right now I am wearing Profumum Roma’s Arso.

I bought a bottle of this for myself and hubby seems to have taken possession of it. That’s fine though because it has zero lasting power on me so I enjoy it more on him.

He he he, in a reversal of usual. The guy steals the girls frag. That should be a movie.
