John Varvatos Nick Jonas Jv X Nj by John Varvatos for Men

John Varvatos Nick Jonas Jv X Nj Cologne by John Varvatos, Launched in 2018, Jv x Nj is an aromatic fougere men’s fragrance that also features spicy and woody accords.

In its top notes, fresh bergamot and sweet mandarin complement each other while pink pepper, kaffir lime leaves and cascalone supply rosy, intense citrus and aquatic tones. The heart offers a distinctive herbal blend of mint, clary sage, rosemary, lavender and hedione, a citrusy floral compound that’s found in jasmine. Base notes such as sandalwood, clearwood and ambrox super finish the fragrance and give it body with earthy, woody and musky aromas.

This scent resulted from a collaboration between perfumer John Varvatos and superstar musician Nick Jonas. Crafted to evoke the upbeat energies of city nightlife, it benefits from the American perfume label’s edgy and sophisticated sensibilities. While the label itself was founded in 2004, the first fragrance was released in 2004. This scent is one of 17 creations to date, joining standouts such as 2010’s Artisan Black and 2016’s Dark Rebel Rider.
