Casanova Pheromone Shower Gel and Shampoo for Men 200ml

I was very intrigued when I first saw this shower gel appear in the what's new section. I love a nice fragrance and I'm always on the look out for different delights for one of my keenest senses.

My OH is very particular about smells and doesn't like anything too overpowering but at such a reasonable price for 200ml I thought that this product was well worth a try to give him a little treat.

It arrived quickly and discreetly in a box with some other goodies and I looked forward to my OH trying it out. I quickly removed the shrink wrap plastic cover on the lid which I thought was great for avoiding spills in transit and which also let me know that it hadn't been already opened, possibly spoiling the fragrance by it going off on the shelf over time. I opened the flip-style lid to have a quick sniff and I was very impressed as the lovely scent met my nostrils for the first time. As a previous reviewer said it smells very familiar but I also can't think what it is that it reminds me of.

It has a lovely, fresh, expensive, masculine smell but not in an overpowering or overdone way. It won't stink the house out or make you choke because it is so strong unlike some other male fragrance favourites can.

I hoped that my OH would also like it when he tried it out and I'm glad to report that he did. He took it into the shower and used it on his body and hair as directed. He thought it smelled nice and was easy to use and it felt "okay" on his skin and hair. He didn't go into raptures but he's just not that type of guy.

I was upstairs while he was in the shower and as I went to go back downstairs again the gorgeous aroma of this had drifted through the house and I could smell it at the top of the stairs. I went down to the bathroom and although the whole room was lightly enveloped in this wonderful fragrance, bizarrely it wasn't nearly as strong as it was upstairs. In fact I went back upstairs just to check and it was still very detectable there.

My OH smelt divine when I gave him a hug after he had dried himself off and for the rest of the day I was following him around having another sniff at him every chance I got. We did joke about whether he noticed any increased attention while he was out and about during the day. I imagined a line of followers in the local supermarket as he went down the aisles when he collected some groceries but he just laughed at my silliness.

I could still detect this wonderful fragrance faintly on his skin later at night when we cuddled up under the duvet.

I know it says on the front that it's "For Men" but just like in the Yorkie advert I thought, that's very unfair and this woman should also get the chance to enjoy it too, so, the following day I used this on myself during my shower. It was lovely. The smell is so nice and combined with the pale blue colour of the gel it reminded me of sunny Mediterranean days with it's fresh clean fragrance. I used it first on my hair and although I needed to apply it twice as I have long hair, it lathered up nicely and left my hair feeling super clean, soft, shiny and smelling great. Usually with any two-in-one style products that I've used before in the past my hair feels very overwashed, stripped and very dry afterwards but this product was very gentle. I used it all over my body and a little goes such a long way and it didn't have a drying effect on my skin at all and left it feeling lovely and soft afterwards.

I have yet again spent the rest of the day sniffing but it was myself this time and I've been thoroughly enjoying the trace of the fragrance left on my skin.

I would thoroughly recommend this to anyone who likes clean, fresh, masculine but not too overpowering fragrances and for anyone who enjoys a two-in-one style product for the shower. Great for use at home, when away for the weekend or even for popping in your sports bag for showering at the gym, where at least you'll have the strength to "fight them off" if you have to.

This would make a great gift at any time of year and is a super stocking filler idea for Christmas.

I can't guarantee that it will enhance anyone's pulling power but I think everyone enjoys having a fresh, clean smell regardless.

Casanova is a gorgeously fragranced, quality product at a super price. It should last ages as only a little is needed each time but if you buy this for your OH and also enjoy using it yourself on a daily basis then it will get used up much quicker. I will definitely be ordering this again when our one runs out.

This was a little bit of filler purchase to get my order free shipping but the Casanova Pheromone Shower Gel and Shampoo actually smells really nice and it feels really nice on the skin.

I haven't had women flocking to me like a Lynx advert but I didn't really expect that. Although this product is a little bit expensive and I don't know if it actually works as a pheromone, it smells better than any other shower gel I have used and I would purchase it again.

My partner was having a look on the Lovehoney site and saw this pheromone shower gel. He said for me to have a look and see what I thought. When I had a look at it I couldn't really say much other than buy it. It really wasn't that much for a bottle so it didn't hurt to try it.

When the package came we couldn't wait to have a look at it and smell it. I am some kind of weird person and with anything smelly I had to smell it. My partner had a little look before I did and he just thought it looked like a normal bottle of shampoo and shower gel. Apart from it having Casanova written on it nobody would know it was a pheromone gel.

My partner was going to have a shower anyway so he went in and used this wash. He said it felt really nice on his skin. The only thing he didn't do was wash his hair in it. The only reason being is that he has funny hair and it is very particular with the shampoo it wants.

He came out of the shower and he said he couldn't really smell anything on him personally. When he got to me I could definitely smell something on him. I wasn't too sure about the smell. It was masculine and kind of smelled like something I remembered. I think when I first met him he had a spray that smelled quite like it.

When I had a few hours around him I could tell that I felt really attracted to him and that he smelled so good. It was something in it that just made me feel like he was a magnet and I was a metal object being sucked in. It felt really good and I couldn't take my eyes off him. And I couldn't keep my hands to myself. My partner could tell and he took advantage of that.

We had a really good session after all of that and it felt so good. My partner really liked the fact that he was the centre of attention and that I couldn't keep myself away from him. The results of the first night were amazing so we couldn't wait until the second time of using it. So he didn't hesitate to use it the next night. To my surprise, it didn't work as well as it did the night before.

I was a little disappointed but thought that using it so close together meant that it just wasn't powerful enough the second time. We left it a few nights in between using it again and it worked so much better after that.

We would recommend this to anyone wanting something to keep the women swooning around you. It will work but just don't overuse this otherwise I don't think it would have the desired effects. For the price, you really cannot go wrong, it isn't like you are losing much money even if it doesn't work that well for you. But in our experience I think that it will work well for anyone – if you don't overuse it.
