whats the difference between this Artisan and the Artisan Black?

About Artisan: black: It's a bit rougher around the edges and the base notes have been beefed up with the addition of leather, iris and vetiver along with some of the other notes making it dark and spicy . This gives it that "black" title which is to say, in the world of marketable scents it's slightly Animalic yet socialble. A note about the scent: I've heard that for some people the blend doesn't work well on their skin. for me it shows up as leather, citrus and spice for others it might mix with their skins chemistry and become slightly "cat pee-ish" though the chances of that are random for the most part. It's a good scent and in my opinion more geared towards being in large groups aka: it requires warmth to get the best results. This scent will get you noticed and will get you compliments. So with all that said I would try to get a sample of it so as to make sure you are not one of the few people that have that issue with the scent not blending correctly with your chemistry.About JV Artisan: Take what I said about potential for cat pee and leather and darker and scratch that the original artisan is like the cleaner and more simplistic of the two blends, it works well on generally everybody and has a very prominent floral note on my skin(the greek lavandin).Notes: For this scent I have heard of some people saying it's "generic" but I didn't think so, on the other hand I happen to think where as it smells good in general and is almost perfect it could be a little too perfect causing it to have a synthetic quality to it owing to its base notes of kephalis and georgywood and other components. In all it is good but it is also carries a synthetic nature. I wear it primarily summer/fall the only problem others and myself have had with the artisan series is that "it's there and gone in the course of a few hours" again get a sample and see if it works for you. But if you're looking for a "black" scent that behaves well and is predictable get Armani code: black, it's generally pricier, other wise either of these two fragrances are nice and are nicely priced for what they offer. I tink the division to the two of these scents is: are you looking for ,morning to mid day? or afternoon to night time?

whats the difference between this cologne and the john varvatos by john varvatos?

It's been a while since I've smelled the original John Varvatos, but I know Artisan has hints of citrus. It's very casual and perfect for summer.

I have used John Varvatos for years. How can I be certain that your product is 100% authentic and not some knock-off or watered down version?

The one I got from them was original came with the nice box and the lotion or aftershave. Good quality.

Hi this is a Seller of John Varvatos I buy direct from Elizabeth Arden warehouse, Amazon has stick policies of only allowing an authorized dealer to sell on its site. I'm not big enough for Amazon for this product but I do purchase from Elizabeth Arden warehouse. Michelle's Fine Perfumes
