For some time now, now tired of the modern pseudo niche, I started to (re)discover the old classics, the vintage ones as it's cool to say today (but I prefer to call them old classics).
Modern version;
a perfume of TWENTY EUROS (€20) which, apart from a slightly chemical opening (it reminds me of some detergents, but I really like it), literally puts the jewels on top of many modern design perfumes and niche products. However, it must be said that perfumes of this kind are children of an era in which brands were not afraid of offending anyone, were not subjected to political correctness or "gender fluid" and were not afraid to offer products that are openly and distinctly masculine or feminine; and from this point of view, here you can't go wrong .... we are in the presence of a true masculine perfume, on a par with Kouros, Zino, Platinum, Lapidus, Antaeus and beautiful company .... in short, a perfume that identifies a male, classic, with austere and perhaps refined ways. Everything is then strengthened by the very dense and full-bodied patchouli which, together with the amber notes, brings the perfume to a vaguely sweet and lovable finish.
Vintage from 1982;
a perfume so dated in the hints, complex and dense in the composition and in the rendering. The freshly sprayed perfume is very strong but the opening is extremely different from the modern one, it does not smell of chemicals but of green and natural, in full 80s style, it is felt from meters away with its bitter and aromatic green scents . The green aromatic part is then supported by a fat and dense base of rough castoreum very similar to Antaeus by Chanel but more marked and stronger than its cousin from beyond the Alps. The drying is similar to the modern one, let's say that the new one looks like the original vintage one but the differences are extremely evident. I own both and have a small stock of the vintage, but I also continue to use the new one whenever I want something good but undemanding and to wear casually.
Duration and trail important for vintage, reduced duration on the new which after the initial hit tends to diminish quickly within about 4 or 5 hours. In any case, whether vintage or new, promoted. For lovers of the classic fragrances of times gone by.
