Exceptional Parfums Exceptional Because You Are For Men is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2008. Exceptional Because You Are For Men settles into a heart of Citrus, Woody, Violet Leaf, and Melon. Exceptional Parfums's Exceptional Because You Are For Men carries a Favourite verdict, a ozonic-led wear.

This one's a classic case of 'nice, but no cigar', or 'exceptional by name, but not by nature'. It's a clean, safe, mass-appealing freshie that many people enjoy, but its abysmal performance and generic vibe make it generally forgettable and a source of much online mirth.

When To Wear

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its clean, inoffensive, fresh, and weak profile makes it ideal for the gym, office, or very casual day wear where you don't want to project much. The utterly terrible longevity and sillage mean it's unsuitable for dates or formal occasions, as it'll be gone before you even get there.

About

Imagine a brisk morning breeze hitting a citrus grove, with a splash of sweet melon and pineapple, all underpinned by a clean, woody musk. It kicks off with a bright, zesty citrus blast, quickly settling into an ozonic freshness with a hint of vibrant violet leaf, and a subtly sweet, fruity heart. The dry down is a soft, clean woodsiness, making it smell like a fresh shower, but it fades almost instantly.
