Very good. Love the way the color brings your eye to the product name immediately.

Not a fan of the selective color with B/W but in this particular shot looks awesome. I like the combination with the color of the cologne. composition also works for me.

Excellent layout and very good use of shallow DOF. I like the grain. Very realistic as a magazine ad. Should do very well in voting. (Commenting only.)

Nice job. If this was a selective desaturation, the effect worked for you nicely. Good color scheme.

i like the choice of crop and composition - i would suggest this looks more ad like rather than product like - but no points off for that...

Selective desat put to good use.

Stylish execution. Nice desat. 8

Overall it's a splendid photo. Couple of items taking away from it for me are 1) noise - don't really expect it in a product shot IMO, and 2) I think the comp would be better served with about 30 pixels taken off the bottom. All JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Very pretty. I think the unusual crop is pleasing to the eye, but not particularly appropriate for a catalog or advertisement. Same with the image grain, which I personally love, but not for that application.

Great selective desaturation.

good crop and lighting. a bit much noise. placement and spreading of droplets could be enhanced

THis makes me think about an advert. It's got a bit of a murder scene vibe to it. A bit chilling and cold. Cool though

Nice shot. The grains in the background bothers a bit. You could have cleaned it, I think.

Nice shot, but it needed some noise reduction to eliminate that grain some.

very good
