Hello everyone,so i got ultra male but im skeptical if its real,
If anyone could check it out for me that would be highly appreciated.

Hey everyone, I wanted help figuring out if it’s authentic or fake.

Before posting here, I checked: Fragrantica, Batch code sites, Reddit legit check posts, YouTube comparison videos but I’m still a bit confused

I attached pictures of the bottle, box, and batch code. Does anything stand out as fake or does it look legit?

Woody fresh herbal/green

When I Bought It

2024

The Scent

It is an woody fresh uplifting scent that reminds me of fragrances from late 1990s toearly 2000s like Burberry for men

Vibe: woody, Green, fresh, clean, masculine, and mature.

Notes -what I can smell

Fragrance world website didn't have much details about notes when I bought it. This is a clone of Brioni EDT or EDP. I'm not sure if this is even true because the notes of both these fragrances are different from what Fragrantica lists for all these three.

From Brone what I can smell are Bergamot and lemon in the opening, Galbanum and nutmeg in the middle, and vetiver, oakmoss, and woody notes in the base. This seems like a very light lemon-vetiver-woody note fragrance. Even though fragrantica lists many more notes like lavendar, patchouli, and tonka, I can probably smell earthiness of patchouli which goes very well with oakmoss, and vetiver.

Is it Dated?

Some people call it old-fashioned, but I find it classic and timeless. It is ideal for a mature men who loves classic smelling fragrances.

Performance and Wearability

The formulation is highly versatile and inoffensive.

Office Safe: This is one of the office-safe fragrances for a mature man. It smell like man with a class.

Wearability: Safe for virtually all occasions, from the office to a casual evening out. It's especially suited for summer and monsoon(Asia) seasons.

The fragrance is quite mild and quickly turns into intimate scent very quickly.

Signature Scent Worthy?

Yes. It's unique enough now that you won't find many others wearing this fresh woody herbal fragrance which was popular in the early 2000s.

Downside

Unfortunately, the performance of the current formulation is its biggest con.

• Longevity: I only get less than 3 hours of wear time even though the bottle has been sitting for a few months(those who believe in maceration, i don;t)
• Projection: Mild and intimate.

This is a close cousin of CK One in terms of projection and performance. Performance is the biggest con of Brone EDP. It doesn't even seem like EDP, it performs like cologne

Final Thoughts & Alternatives

Brone by Fragrance world is a fantastic scent for a mature man who appreciates fresh woody clean scent and doesn't mind a soft performance. It has a very smooth opening. For the price, this does punch above its weight. It is not a blind buy worthy fragrance because this style of scent were popular a few decades ago. If you like fragrances from the 1990s and early 2000s, do try Brone EDP by fragrance world.
