This is a pretty good fragrances. I mainly smell mandarin orange, lime, jasmine, slight rose, some cedar, and musk. It’s great for the summer. The performance for me is below average about 4 hours. It projects for maybe an hour. Then more of a skin scent, people will still smell it but not as strong. It’s not a favorite of mine, but it smells nice. I do notice women seem to compliment this one. So I guess that’s where the name comes in. Compliments make you HAPPY! Give it a try.

Husband and I really like this one by Clinique. Happy for Men is a musky, citrus, fresh scent that your man will love! This is a light scent that’s not too over powering to the senses. When your man is wearing this you’ll be ready to cuddle ladies. 🥰 Definitely will continue to purchase for his collection. The only negative is the scent doesn’t last all day!

Great Scent With Very Poor Performance

First of all, let me start out by saying that Clinique Happy for Men smells great. It smells exactly how I remember it smelling when I first tried it over 20 years ago. However, Clinique has either diluted / weakened it or somehow changed the formula since its inception. It is basically a “skin scent” now. Even with 8-10 sprays on chest, neck, and arms, it doesn’t project and its longevity is around 1-2 hours at best; very disappointing.Having said that, it is a wonderful fresh scent. It is very green, citrusy, and floral at the same time. This scent will not offend anyone, but it is just unfortunate that it performs so poorly.I advise anyone wishing to purchase this scent to just go to the Clinique counter at their local department store, and sample this ... MoreFirst of all, let me start out by saying that Clinique Happy for Men smells great.

Great value, unisex better than original Happy for women

First of all, this is a masculine scent but absolutely can be worn by women as a fresh summery scent when you don't want to smell like a cake pop or classic floral. It's a great first fragrance for young men. It is better than light blue imo. I am a Happy in Bloom girl and faithful Clinique customer. I don't prefer the other Happys except for these two. This is the one perfume I got for my man and still the only perfume he wears. For a men's fragrance, it's sweet but in the smoothest clean citrusy way you can imagine, with a masculine, aquatic, herbal twist in the background. It is not a bitter, harsh citrus. It is perfect for a beach vacation or a trip across a California or Tuscan countryside. It just gives me a summer breeze carrying citrus blooms and green. It's ... MoreFirst of all, this is a masculine scent but absolutely can be worn by women as a fresh summery scent when you don't want to smell like a cake pop or classic floral.

It's a light masculine scent that is complimentary to a man's skin chemistry, not overpowering to it with herbs and musty metallics, leathers & spices like most cologne. Depending on chemistry and activity level, it has moderate longevity and intimate to moderate sillage. This will make you want to get close to smell him. It's not a migraine inducer but a love inducer especially for someone you already love. The perfect gift for any special man in your life. I can't see anyone disliking this, but some may prefer heavier, more manly scents. Lastly it is probably one of the most affordable mid-grade perfumes on the market.

Wonderful cologne. Fresh and fruity

I kept seeing this cologne pop-up and the reviews that it had. I finally decided to buy a bottle since it's on the less expensive side. I was pleasantly surprised. When I first sprayed it, I couldn't smell anything, so I was a bit discouraged. It takes a few minutes for the aroma to really mix with your skin. I went to my sister's house, and everybody started complementing me on what I was wearing. It's a very light cent but it seems to trail. I really enjoy it and think it's a refreshing summer scent especially on those hot days.

fragrance fades within minutes

I purchased the Clinique Happy 3.4 fl oz bottle and even had next day shipping as I was excited to be reunited with a fragrance that was familiar and that I loved growing up. I received it today and tried it. It smells good and familiar but fades extremely fast almost like it is watered down. The bottle also felt very cheap, although it looked the same it was different. Any way I also thought I was getting the eau de parfum and ended up with the toilette. Ive read reviews where the customer care has stated it was parfum but it was not in this case as it was clearly stated on the outside of the box. I am very disappointed, even more so that I paid for next day to get a product that is not going to be any good for me. An expensive airfreshner is what I got. Hope this ... MoreI purchased the Clinique Happy 3.4 fl oz bottle and even had next day shipping as I was excited to be reunited with a fragrance that was familiar and that I loved growing up.
