Don Algodón Don Algodón 1985

Years ago, an acquaintance was opening a gift, it was a perfume box, one of those that has the bottle of cologne and body milk. The color of the box was blue and the woman, all excited, thought that it was Light Blue by Dolce Gabbana, but when she saw that it was Mr. Cotton, her face changed and she said contemptuously: "It's the cologne that old women use," I, who At that time I was in my early thirties, I told him: "I use it, do you consider me, as you say, an old woman?"
A person can say that they don't like a perfume or that they don't identify with it, but it is unnecessary to disrespect anyone.
Everyone puts on the perfume they like or feel like, it is enough for that fragrance to make you feel good, beautiful, fresh, sexy...

It is a fragrance that has been and is used by many generations in Spain and by people of all ages.
I've been wearing this fragrance since I was 14 years old and maybe I'll still wear it when I'm "old", because I like it, I identify with it and it makes me feel good.
It is jasmine in its purest form, with creamy nuances, leaving in its drydown an aroma of shower gel and even freshly washed sheets.

Its sillage and longevity may not be the best but you can always reapply.

As the title says: Don Algodón smells like lilac to me, a very feminine perfume, and I would love to wear it if it weren't for a penetrating chemical note like cheap sunscreen. This note is present from the very first moment and does not fade away.
I received the perfume as a gift and will probably leave it sitting in the bathroom cabinet forever...
