This scent have a lot for thumbs up but a lot for down. But for must off all I think biggest surprise is when you first smell the scent. Yes, very synthetic but cinnamon dominant note is done pretty well. Also longevity is very lasting, so for the price when it was sold it was if not good backup scent. Maybe too much for sillage which for this kind of smell I do not like to have.

It represent me the organic Rooibos tea with vanilla and orange and some spices I used to hate, but smell was great also, it is like a scent have tendency to bee little bit bitter.

Good was for little money and not even hated by women...so overall 3.

Wowzers! A sharp, in your face cinnamon scent, overshadowing most of the other notes in the composition...not for everyone, that's for sure. I would either spritz a tiny bit for regular wear, or just on the wrist to sniff as desired; this one can be QUITE cloying if oversprayed.

I just remember this being a harsh, spicey cinnamon + aniseed bomb. Not a pleasant experience for me. Sillage and longevity were good and it was cheap.

I can honestly say I never knew a fragrance could smell this terrible!
It smells like a grandmothers spicy perfume.

I'm surprised by this fragrance. The bottle, like the other Diesel fragrances, is dull at best, even ugly. The market for Diesel hardly is the old school jetsetter, yet this fragrance seems more suited to a person who enjoys Old Spice and Tabac Original.

This doesn't smell like Big Red gum to me. It certainly does have a prominent spicy note, but the floral elements seem to be at the forefront to my nose. Not too sweet either, which is just fine by me. For the price, this is an acceptable, even worthy, option for those afraid to wear something that originated before they were born.

( Instructions on ) How to build a Bomb !!

Stick some rose petals into a balloon; then fill the rest of it with Johnson's Baby Powder, and a ton of dry cinnamon (ground so fine that it can easily be sucked up by air, through someone's nose and directly into their sinuses). Then tie off the end. Now, If you POP that balloon two inches in front of that someone's face ?

That person, would have just experienced...

DIESEL. Zero. Plus. Masculine !!

This one can be purchased pretty cheap now.

I bought a bottle of this unsniffed at a discount store years ago, thinking it was something else. Since then, I've tried to learn to enjoy it, but I've come to the conclusion that this is just a terrible perfume.

It's a mix of cinnamon candy (like red hots or Big Red gum) with cloves and cherry Kool Aid. It has a thin vanilla base, but the dominant smell is the cinnamon/clove mix, which smells like cheap Christmas potpouri. Seriously, imagine Christmas time at the cheapest store you can imagine and the scented junk they sell smells like this.

It's too sweet and strong to wear to work, and it's too Christmas-specific and cheap-smelling to wear to a club. I'd use it as a bathroom freshener at Christmas time, but I have much nicer candles and stuff for that, so this hasn't even proven nice enough to drown out the smell of my farts. Sorry, but this is a fail, both in terms of artistic merit and wearability.

A lovely floral, musky, spicy scent. Longevity and sillage excellent. It's cheap too. Love it!

Cautiously tried half a spray after reading some other reviews. Cinnamon is dominant and pleasant but the opening blend of the other spices smells bad to me, cannot put my finger on the exact note. The cinnamon stays throughout and the drydown is actually quite pleasant and sweet. Projection was ok, even with half a spray. Cannot comment on the longevity. I do not recommend it. Please try before you buy.

If you don't like cinnamon, don't buy this.

If like me,you do, this is a great fragrance for the winter. Its very spicy and sweet, and envelops you with warmth. I think this is too warm a fragrance for the summer, and it will just get cloying if you wear it then.

The longevity of this is very good, I get about 8 hours. The projection is also excellent, so don't spray too much on. For the price (as this is discontinued), this is well worth investing in if you like oriental spicy fragrances.

This is a very immature fragrance, I used to wear this when I was about 10 or 11 without knowing what it was my mother sprayed me with every morning. I'm joking, but the point I'm trying to emphasise is that it is very 'one tone', the scent doesnt change over time, but why should it need to, it's a nice scent. It's like spicy, yet sweet and mellow suede - yeah, exactly that.

...for sheer originality.

It's like being punched in the face with a fist made of spices. On my skin (apparantly as others') it lasts maybe two hours before fading to a generic patchouli scent, but Diesel has created a fun, *masculine* fragrance that works perfectly as a year-round night scent.

Woah that is a spicey meatball, lovely smooth spicy fragrance not too heavy or light and perfect for daytime. Smells like Christmas to me with the nutmeg and cinnamon

A damn shame both zero plus and plus plus have been discontinued, and were left with such rubbish from diesel such as 'only the brave.'

Although discontinued, Diesel Plus can still be found easily on the web.
Initially I liked this, but after wearing just a couple of times over the Holidays I found it too much of a novelty. Great for The Winter Holiday Season but I cannot imagine wearing this any other time of year or wearing as an everyday fragrance. A bit one-dimensional. It is also just a little too strong and makes me think that a bayberry-cinnamon candle is following me wherever I go. Still a thumbs up as a sweet Holiday adventure. Longevity is very good. But it's time to blow out this candle until next Holiday season....

Good lord - a spice rack bomb! Diesel Zero Plus Masculine combines clove, cinnamon, nutmeg, and some heavy florals for a powdery sneezer of a fragrance. A little vanilla to sweeten things up. Stays this way pretty much the whole way thru - although I do notice the rose a bit as it dries down some more. Lasts a while for me, don't overspray, and don't wear it in the heat! I find it just "okay". Can be had for very cheap, even though discontinued, can still be found in America at TJ Maxx/Marshall's outlets.

This can smell like a tin of cinnamon, or a heavenly spice and flower melange. It all depends on the weather and how much you spritz on your body. It is soft and ingratiating in the dry down.

First I tended to like it. Mostly because it reminded me of the 90s in a very warm and touching way. Maybe there were too many people wearing this around me back then and maybe it reminded me the smell of Diesel stores then although I just suppose this.Nevertheless, this remained the only trick of this fragrance for me. It just somehow falls apart to its parts, no consistence. It's the cherry-cinnamon coke - spicy 'red' part and then the dry powdery base, a little similar to Burberry Touch but without any depth and much cheaper smelling. So it's like the fragrance is divided in these two layers and they never connect in a convincing way. I thought Zero Plus would make a nice everyday fragrance but this doesn't work for me either: too obvious somehow . Maybe romantic, but in the way certain shots in fashion magazines are romantic: you don't actually see people with feelings, you see the clothes. But even if this is your kind of thing, you'd want to go for something more up-to-date.

Such a shame it is discontinued. Such a cinnamon gem this scent is! I was planning to own it. I hope I get lucky even though it is discontinued.
