Bellavita Luxury CEO Man Eau de Parfum for Men, 3.4 fl oz (100 ml)

I’m not a cologne connoisseur by any means but I would definitely say I’m an enthusiast, I don’t buy the super expensive colognes but I do enjoy more affordable scents. As you can see lol. And with all these colognes on my shelf, there’s a reason ceo man is at the front. It’s my signature scent and I have it at the front so I can grab it easily. You might be asking, “out of all the colognes and choices in the world this is REALLY your signature scent?”. Hear me out. I first bought this cologne at a Burlington just to see if it was any good, at the price I had nothing to lose. The reason Im doing a review on Amazon is because I bought a second one so I can have a backup and also start the maturation process. Anyways, upon opening and spraying after I bought my first ceo man at Burlington, both me and my girlfriend were shocked. This smells goooooood. It is so well balanced it’s insane. You can use this all year round, from gym, to work, to date nights, to hot days, to even the coldest of winters. It’s fresh yet warm and inviting all at the same time, it’s masculine but in the most humble way. I like fresh colognes to smell clean and I also like colognes that are masculine, but aren’t screaming it in your face, that’s what I usually use during the colder months or nights of summer and spring. This hits that mark. Fresh but also warm and a little sweet from the tonka bean. When you get a masculine scent that still has a perfect balance of a little vanilla or tonka bean it’s game over for the ladies. AND fresh enough you can still wear this YEAR ROUND? Insane. It’s not too bold yet it still makes a statement. All in all I’d just say it’s class in a bottle. This is VERY mass appealing, or at least on my skin it is (your skin can sometimes alter how something smells, you could take two people and spray the same cologne on their skin and get two totally different notes…to an extent). ANYWAYS—- After coming home from Burlington that day and spraying my shirt and wrists, my girlfriend literally word for word kept saying “god you smell so good” and “you smell so YUMMY”. Keep in mind she’s said in the past “you smell goood” but the emphasis she was putting on these words this time around, I know this fragrance was a keeper and definitely had to be in rotation. I personally like how it smells but the fact that she really likes it as well really sold it for me. This cologne really turns heads, when I’m wearing this I notice customer service from women are a lot more talkative 😂 one time I had an appointment at the doctors and after checking in (with the front desk lady being oh so nice) I sat down in a busy waiting room, a couple minutes of sitting and I notice in my peripherals the lady next to me looks up like she smelled something and then glances over at me. She then goes back to her phone and after a couple minutes she puts her phone down and glances over at me from time to time with what it seems like she’s trying to make eye contact or strike up a conversation. Her body language I also notice that she’s sitting more leaning in my direction now. I know what you’re thinking, no this was not a “EW what is that smell” or “GOD this guy sprayed too much cologne”. Trust me. 3 sprays was all I did that morning, two on the wrist one on the shirt (you could def do more if you’d like but I knew I was coming back home after this appt so I could always reapply). I of course didn’t entertain anything because I’m happily taken but all I’m saying is this cologne is good. We tend to get super into colognes and look into it too much and want something super duper complex and expensive but it seems like the simple ones work the best. Don’t get me wrong I’m all about different notes and types of fragrances but in my experience it always seems to be mass appealing when things are more simple. I’m not trying to toot my own horn but I’m 1000% not a bad looking guy, I will say my height probably carries me lol. But my point is, I’m not some 3000lb Jabba the Hut saying that this cologne is getting me attention from girls, I promise I’m not being delusional. This cologne is extremely disarming, it’s probably my most favorite part about this cologne. It’s humble and inviting and disarming. Especially if you’re a masculine looking guy or look a little intimidating. It’s great if you’re in sales, run a business like me and are meeting potential clients, or just out and about on the town or jus goin to the gym. This cologne is disarming and inviting, once you smell it you’ll know what I mean. NOW, tips and tricks. This cologne doesn’t cost an arm and a leg so take it with a grain of salt. WHEN YOU FIRST GET YOUR CEO MAN COLOGNE….Open it and spray it into the air away from you 5-7 times. Yes I know you’re thinking your losing precious cologne but trust me this is crucial. You’re getting out all the alcohol that built up. If you spray it once on you after initial opening and smell it you’re gonna wonder why the heck I made this long of a review. NOW that you’ve sprayed it 5-7 times you’ve now officially started the maceration/maturation process, you’ve introduced oxygen into the bottle which will help make the cologne smell even better and last longer as time goes on. But of course you still want to smell it right now right? So spray it onto your wrists BUT wait 7-10 minutes to wait for the DRY DOWN. The dry down is how it’ll actually smell. Initial spraying on this cologne does have some alcohol I will admit. But you gotta trust the process. After you waited 7-10 minutes, THEN that’s when i want you to judge this cologne. And then after smelling it, remind yourself you started the maturation process and it’ll only get even better from here. I’ve only tried ceo man and ceo man intense and both are good but the original is a lot more of a everyday scent for me, the other one is well, more intense lol. I will definitely try their other ones as I wean my fragrance collection down and finish colognes that I don’t see as permanent in my collection. But for now I just got ceo man and ceo man intense. All in all for the price id rate this cologne an 11/10. Genuinely surprised. I know all the fragrance snobs don’t like this brand but after giving them a shot I’m definitely invested. BELLAVITA, please don’t change ceo man or reformulate it, please keep making colognes until I pass away lol, you’ll definitely have my business. Just don’t change a thing on this ceo man, if anything maybe longevity, but if that’s at the cost of changing how it smells I’ll take it exactly how it is. TLDR; get this cologne and give it a try, if you don’t like it it’ll definitely be a good room spray at the very very least. You genuinely have nothing to lose, cheers!

At first smell it smells like a women's fragrance... However once you put it on the skin it opens up into this fresh Lemon Starburst smell ... Imaging you eating a starburst and then make yourself smell like it all day ...ha ha it's a 9 out of 10 for quality for cheap price and you get 3 times as much 3 oz instead of 1 oz for $20 ... Only reason I give it a 9 out of 10 is because it's def a de parfume trim but they watered it down a little so it only lasts 4 good hours In stead of full 8 hour day... Overall buy it you won't regret it as a man!!!

I got the Goat and the CEO Man, they both are really good I favor the CEO Man so far but I have noticed that the Goat gets better as it lingers. They last the long enough even through showers. I love them I will always have these on deck.

Honestly great so far smells good you get a good amount for your money although if your not into strong smells there might be a small issue their but other than that it’s good

I was really impressed with this cologne. The scent smells much more expensive than I expected for the price. It has a clean, masculine fragrance that is noticeable without being overpowering. A little goes a long way, and I can still smell it several hours after applying it. The bottle and packaging also have a nice premium look. Great option for everyday wear or going out, and I would definitely buy it again.

I bought BELLAVITA LUXURY CEO MAN after reading tons of positive reviews, but personally, I’m not a fan at all. It smells clean and pleasant, but the scent is very weak on both my clothes and skin and doesn’t seem to last. I honestly don’t understand what all the hype is about. Unfortunately, this one was a disappointment for me.

Big bottle smells so manly I got it for my man’s birthday and I can’t wait for him to explore these new scents so far the black bottle is my favorite the brown bottle smells very musky woody I have to get use to it for sure

This cologne smells good but not perfect. To me it’s not very special however some people might like it. It has too much chemical in to me.

This CEO scent is just so nice, so if you like fruity sweet aromas with a subtle freshness like Musk perfumes then this is the one, if you've worn Burberry London the one in the brown tartan bottle and you like that one then I'm pritty sure you will also like this as they are very similar but both have there own distinctive scent, both are not too over powering as I have Asthma but there still strong enough to last on your clothes for atleast a day or 2. the GOAT version is also nice in this brand but I would say that's abit stronger scented some might fine it too over powering but if you like milder scents then trust me this scent is just magical, I tried the KLUB of this Bellavita brand too but it's not for me I found it was irritating my sinuses and tickling my throat not sure if it was too strong or just the ingredients but I guess everyone to there own.

A peine ouvert, le spray ne fonctionne pas... et si on insiste ca coule du bord !

Bon parfum

This is my first BellaVita perfume, and I’m impressed. The scent feels high-end and refined, and the bottle design is simple yet classy. It’s perfect for office, meetings, or even evening dinners. Overall, a fantastic purchase and great addition to my collection.

A wonderful scent , at a fantastic price, would purchase again
