Bang

The best black pepper fragrance. I’m a fan of the rose and black pepper combo but there weren’t many fragrances with those notes back in the day and this baby here and a nice rose fragrance layered are simply too good 😌

As soon as I sprayed it on my hand I smelled like a fresh black pepper before you put it on a steak, sorry but I almost puked

According to this database, only 10 perfumes with Pepperwood™ have been released since 2010!

I truly miss this. Even with its heavy-handed pepper note, it always maintained a sophisticated, expensive edge. It’s the 2010s in a bottle for me; I used to work with another male hairdresser who wore it, and he was absolutely that guy. We have enough Daisy flankers to last a lifetime—it’s time to bring back this bad boy!

smells like a fishy dirty pussy, approved by my PR team

Zara A Night ve CDG Blackpepper'da kullanıyorum ancak bunun etkisi sanki bir başkaydı. Belki de benim bu DNA'da kokladığım ilk parfümlerdendi o yüzden. İltifatı bol , yayılımı son derece yüksek bir kokuydu. Aklımda güzel hatıralar ile artık ne yazık ki piyasada yok.

While not being a 1:1 clone, Zara A Night Fragrance really does smell slightly reminiscent of my bottle of Bang from the 2010s. I usually avoid the overly synthetic, crud fragrances from Zara and Banana Republic like the plague, but the quality is surprisingly decent compared to the usual mall-tier slop. It's the only fragrance released since Bang that has even remotely reminded me of it. I've smelled both CDG Black Pepper and Bentley Infinite Rush. The Zara veers closer to Bang than either of those two.

Opening of this perfume is f****** disgusting absolutely dog s*** after about 5 minutes it becomes a very good scent and after 10 minutes it will be it becomes very very good fresh scent this scent is so gorgeous overall except opening. Scent: 7/10 Longetivity: 2/10 Sillage: 0/10 Mass Appeal: 7/10 Compliments: 5/10

Wild that so many people only want to associate pepper with this, which it has really only at the start, but it’s the drydown that’s the best part. Everyone adding anything with a peppery note to the smells like section are missing the point.

Ahh this perfume.. It was year 2011, i was in the summer school of the university. At that time i had a rich boy friend, who was 7+older than me- this was a cool combination at that time for teenage girls like myself... anyways.. One night after having party with my friends he came to pick me up. When i got in the car, oh my got. This perfume glamorized me and i started kissing and smelling him non stop. And you can imagine how the night ended. Since then i always mention about this perfume as women killer 😄 i can still remember how amazing this perfume was.. yeah.

One of my all time favourites. It’s sad they discontinued this one. This was for sure ahead of its time. Might be a good idea for MJ to launch this again? 😍✨

I know this has been discontinued for years now but I feel it deserves a review anyway because of how much I adore this. Firstly I should say it’s my husband who wears this and it’s my all time favourite men’s fragrance. Its super masculine, spicy yet fresh, sexy and addictive. It smells sooooo expensive to me, the kind of scent a refined gentleman would wear. I think if it was released now it would do super well especially if it was packaged in a TF bottle. I feel it was a bit too ahead of it’s time when it came out. Men were wearing softer, ambery, more feminine leaning fragrances at the time. This as the name suggests was loud and masculine and powerful. I fear men found it too grown up smelling at the time. These are just my opinions and I can see in the comments not all young men were unaware of it’s tremendousness. It satisfies me to see so many other comments from folk screaming for Marc Jacobs to bring this back. I concur. Before I go, I just wanted to say I don’t agree this has poor longevity and I would admit if it did no matter how much I’m blinded by love for this scent. I can smell this on my husband for a good 6-8 hours and his clothes still smell of bang the next day. Go on Marc, please BRING IT BACK

Bang by Marc Jacobs absolutely hypnotic scent! Discovered by accident and can't forget it anymore. Scent is like true Piece of Art - feels so mysterious , so masculine, so intriguing. Such pity that no longer produced.

The smell is ok on its own. I've paired it with lotions that have a dark berry scent, which is too feminine on its own and it is an amazing combination.

Purchased (2) bottles at a local Marshalls for 19.99 recently blindly assuming it would make a good gift even if I hated it ,and wasant aware of how much these going for I left 3 that were gone after I found out , but the smell is great nice peppery spicy seductive almost spicy powdery hard to describe but I'm enjoying it and have plenty so minus well enjoy it

I got this and had to toss it. I was younger and had no appreciation for this type of scent. Girls did not like it or did not notice/care. I would like to smell it again but not worth a bottle for me. Buttery Synthetic pepper green is the smell i got. Never really stood out enough

"رایحه این عطر شبیه رایحه برگ اکالیپتوس هست با شدت 70 درصد از تند و تیزی رایحه برگ اکالیپتوس در ذهن من. شرح رایحه: رایحه ای شبیه رایحه گرم کاج که از صمغ المی موجود در این عطر هست(کاج رایحه ای چوبی معطر و گرم با مقداری تلخی ترشی و شیرینی) که ترکیب شده با رایحه فلفل سیاه که مقداری حس فلفل و خاکی به رایحه گرم کاج داده. رایحه خزه درختی هم باعث شده فضای کلی رایحه کمی دارای حس تلخ کف جنگل بشه. اما یک حس سرد و باطراوت هم در لحظاتی پیوسته در فضای کلی عطر به مشامم میرسه. نمی دونم از چی هست. جوری که انگار از حس سرمای موجود در پس تندی و معطر بودن حس برگ اکالیپتوس به مشام بیاد. کمی بعد به نظرم علاوه بر وجود حس تلخ گیاهی چوبی خاکی، انگار عطر به سمت حس شیرین هم تمایل پیدا میکنه. آن حس سرد که گفتم و نمی دونم منشا آن از چه هست باعث شده علی رغم حس گرم در رایحه، حتی در فصل گرم اگر استفاده بشه راضی کننده و انرژی بخش باشه. به نظرم در مواقع معتدل، گرم و شاید خنک نه سرد، این عطر قابل استفاده هست. پخش و ماندگاریش هم متوسطه. یادمه سال 90 بود، تابستان این سال، با این عطر در عطرافشان آشنا شدم. و اون تعریف هیجان انگیز این عطر توسط عطرافشان که هنوز عینا در صفحه این عطر هست، من رو مدام حرکت میداد که بخرمش. من از سال 86، با کمک سایت عطرافشان و یک سایت دیگر، تونستم به مرور عطرها رو بیشتر ببینم و حس علاقه جدیدی نسبت به عطرها در مقایسه با قبل حس کنم. هر چند که یادمه اولین عطری که خریدم سال 75 یا 76 بود. عطر زرو وان انگلیسی بود که عکس یک پسر خوشتیپ با کاپشن چرم نشته بر صندلی و دو دختر خانم مو بلند با کاپشن چرم کنارش ایستاده بودند روی جعبه آن. بعدش عطر د مموری آف تایتانیک بود که عکس جک و رز اصلی در کنار هم داشت و ..."

It is very similar to Lalique Encre noire, but it smells much more stylish, fresh and sexy. Lalique bitterness is mixed with vetyver and creates a dreamy scent. It is a perfume that accompanies looks and heads along your path and the most courageous of them comes forward and asks the name of your perfume. It is unique.

Fragrance in three words: Fresh Powdery Pepper This is a discontinued and sort after fragrance. It's not mega rare or a holy grail and sold really well at the time, enough to warrant a flanker, Bang Bang. Current prices seem to be around £80 for the bigger bottles. When launched I think the price was around £40 for 100ml. This uses a unique combination of three types of pepper (Black, Pink and White). It is noticeably peppery, but I don't get the pungency of the black pepper. Drydown is a sort of woody and very clean powdery scent which is undeniably masculine. it would maybe be considered old school now, given vanilla, cocoa and amber have become the base notes of choice. I know a lot of people have reported poor longevity and projection with this and I can see why. I might have been fortunate in that it lasted around 4-5 hours with medium projection. Like Karma Chameleon "it comes and goes". I smelt nothing after an hour and then Bang it was back as strong as when it was first applied. It's nothing amazing, but I really enjoyed it. Scores: 7 out of 10

Just gorgeous. Gorgeous pepper, sultry fragrance, but ... terrible performance. If that could be fixed, I'd give it a 10/10. Shame it's been discontinued and now only available at over-inflated prices from resellers.

I was literally on a hunt since 2011 to find this again. Back then I wasn’t into peppery frags, did overlook. But then it became a favorite note in my perfumery journey. Today I found a full 100 ml bottle in an underground perfume shop. I was so excited, sprayed with the thought that i would definitely buy as it is so rare and it is considered a pepper masterpiece. But i did not. Back then Bang was unique but today I felt unimpressed. I might still get it to sell, but honestly when you have CdG Blackpepper (Bang was the reason I was holdin' up to buy Blackpepper, yeah), there’s no need for this one. Even Bentley Infinite Rush can fulfill my desire for Bang. Sorry to the fans, but this is what i felt today. It opens with a blast of pepper, amazing. But then it doesnt stick, pepper is so diffusive, it just goes away in few minutes. Then i'm left with a smell of faint peppers and more something like incense-ish and dry resins. Performance was not good overall, I think if Bang was on the market today, it wouldn’t be high in the ranks.

Classic and cutting edge in the same breath, Bang is an original without deviating too far from the standards set for its time. The fragrance itself is a rugged and earthy woods mixed with a blast of spice over a base palette of resin and burning coal. It smells like an old 20th century lumber mill surrounded by woods in northern Quebec in mid-October. This is impressive as a work of ingenuity because the designers were able to find a balance between shock and classical elements in the overall blend they constructed. Gottlieb and Vasnier stick to a palette that compliments each other note and conveys an overall theme of damp woods, spice, resin and earthy minerals. The composers find a nice compromise of classic and modern, with 1970's and 1980's stalwarts present in the warm emissions of the benzoin, patchouli and oakmoss that mix beautifully with the pink pepper and black pepper to create a subtle work of integrity. This one won't garner a lot of compliments in clubs or on dates. It's a fragrance best suited for work, travel or casual weekends in the fall, late winter and early spring. Bang! has a fantastic therapeutic element to it. It's best suited for the pleasure of the wearer itself and for me, has been a very calming force on stressful days where I need to publicly speak for 4-5 hours in front of big crowds. When I inhale it, it immediately brings me back to the woods of my childhood and soothes my worries away. The subtlety of this fragrance is quite remarkable. It won't impose itself on your or others, but rest assured, it's there and it's leaving a significant scent trail. It gives off a rather East Indian table spice meets murky woods and wet rain forest just after a mid-day storm meets rocky & muddy river bottom vibe that sets it apart from a lot of other contemporaries. If you want something original for your collection, this is something to get your nose on.

I'm on a pepper-focused scent search; L'Occitan Provence started me off but it suffers from a lack of longevity. Bang is the second I've sampled during this search (the first was F Black; not much long-lasting pepper). Bang has a hint of pepper which dissipates very quickly as does the entire EDT; serious longevity and sillage issues. I really wanted it to work, but it doesn't for me. HeWood DSquared2 Rocky Mountain has more pepper and lasts longer, if it just wasn't for that hint of "diaper" it has to it. Oh, well, on to my third pepper-focus sample scent: BLACKPEPPER BY CdG. (UPDATE: Third time's a charm; Blackpepper by CdG is a pepper monster.)

PEPPER! This is a great scent and what I like about it is that it smells very different vs other mainstream colognes that are out there today. Longevity- This cologne lasts 7-8 hours and have been very impressed with it. Would I buy this again? Yes, this is a very masculine scent that deserves more attention. This is especially good in the fall/winter. Trust me if you want to smell different get this one no one else will have it and it smells great! Notes- Pepper (but not bad!) The Gents score 8.5/10

The opening of this scent is a blast of pepper, both black and pink, spicy and sweet at the same time. It's wonderful, in my opinion, but I can see how it might be too sharp and invasive for others. If you like this opening, I have bad news. It dies out within 10 minutes. No joke, no exaggeration, these top notes disappear faster than any top notes I've ever experienced. What's left is the powdery scent of benzoin and resin working together with the "wet earth" notes of vetiver and oak moss, which, in combination with a whisper of leftover black pepper, somehow combines to create a kind of light cinammon scent. It smells very much like the cinammon dry down of Halston's Z-14. The projection is very weak after that first 10 minutes, and the longevity also leaves much to be desired. It's a skin scent in less than an hour. A very exciting and beautiful accord, no doubt, but it needs to last about five times longer to be worth it.

Man!!!! I cannot tell you how much I love this fragrance. This has been a favorite of mine for many years. This is now the third bottle I’ve owned and I’m still blown away by how good it is (for my tastes that it) BANG! Is a bone dry, woody-spicy fragrance with lots of really nice character. The blend of pink and black pepper is great, it’s got the perfect backing of dry woods, and there is a faint clean smokiness that comes through. It’s everything I love in a fragrance! To me, this is a cross between: Creed Spice and Wood (although that is fresher and a little lighter due to the apple) and CDG Wonderwood (wonderwood is richer and more complex) there is also a similarity to Montale Intense Pepper but the Montale drydown is really different and also their pepper note is totally different. What I like best about this fragrance is how easy it is to wear but how great it smells (and different to what the majority of designer fragrances bring to the table) the times I’ve worn this I’ve been complimented every single time. It goes with casual clothes and also is great for work and even great for a date with someone special. It’s also a fragrance you can layer with other fragrances (for instance for a really complex concoction you can layer Wonderwood with Bang and it’s great!) This and Wonderwood are my signature scents and I will forever love this fragrance. I wish longevity was better but it does better on clothing than on skin with that. Silage is a medium too although sometimes I can smell this radiating from me (when it’s hot and humid) If you like dry woody-spice this is your fragrance!

Love this fragrance, reminds me of poivre samarconde from hermessence line by Hermes. I knew when I started seeing a bunch of thee at Marshalls for 19 dollars that it may be discontinued or a bad seller. The I heard it was discontinued. It's a shame because it has an amazing after shave type of woodsy peppery scent and masculine beard conditioning vetiver feel that's very comforting

Pepper, pepper, and more pepper. I think Marc Jacobs is a fantastic designer and he's made some great scents, but this isn't one of them. Yes, it lives up to the name BANG, but in the worst way. It's an olfactory assault on the nose of pepper the overpowers anything else. It gave me a headache. I think the bottle design is some of the most creative I've seen among men's fragrances, but the scent itself is not for me.

A very generic black pepper, fresh spicy and woody scent. The name and bottle are the best things about this fragrance and everything else is just plain boring.

Marc Jacobs Bang, yes, it is a pepper bomb! It smells very masculine and is all about the pepper. I get decent longevity 6-8 hours, and good projection for the first few hours. I do receive compliments with this one and it smells really good. Plus, to use a pun, if you buy this at a discounter, it will give you bang for the buck. Great fragrance and great price. 9.5 of 10.
