Metallique is a polarizing fragrance that impresses initially with its aldehydic metallic opening but disappoints with weak longevity and a simple vanilla drydown. While the community appreciates its unisex appeal and cozy warmth, most agree the performance and innovation don't justify the premium Tom Ford price tag, with many finding cheaper alternatives more satisfying.
