“First, dab sampling: It seems like the idea was to increase the longevity of the opening significantly (compared to the original). I never got to the dusty, woody/patchouli dominated base that one finds in the original, but that may be because I fell asleep before it got there. So, this seems to be the one to buy if you want that dry yet soft anise and rosemary dominant fougere element to last. For those who don't know, this is not a fougere in that searing Drakkar Noir style. I consider that type of scent to be "barbershop," not this one.”
“A classic barbershop scent. I love the way this brings me back to my childhood at the barbershop in our neighborhood in NY. Some might even think of a country club's bathroom. It's perfect for men over the age of 25. It's clean, fresh and timeless. The intense version is much better then the original. It's worth looking into. Also a great wedding frag. Not strong enough to overpower the groom but loud enough to get acknowledged. I love it. Happy Hunting!”
“its something between Azzaro pour homme classic and Aramis Tuscany.when i smell this one reminds me strongly of these two.but is stronger and longer lasting from both...aroma from the 80s for sure.”
