Impact
Impact by Tommy Hilfiger is a masculine-leaning eau de toilette from 2020 in the designer price tier. It opens with apple, grapefruit, bitter orange, bergamot and pink pepper, moves into elemi, cypress, clary sage and labdanum and dries down to cedarwood, amber, musk and sandalwood. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Apple Crunchy and tart or soft and red, depending on the treatment.
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Bitter Orange Marmalade without the sugar. Sour and slightly medicinal.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Pink Pepper Fizzy, rosy and bright. Adds sparkle without heat.
Heart
- Elemi Peppery resin with a lemon-pine lift. Bright and dry.
- Cypress Cool, green, resinous conifer. Sharp and clean.
- Clary Sage Softer, sweeter sage with an ambery undertone. Warm and herbal.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
