A friend said this is one of his favorite Bond's and had me try it. I was at a Sak's and what I smelled was not pleasant at all, I was sure the bottle was bad. So a week later I was in a different city in a Nordstrom and tried again. Nope.. the Saks bottle wasn't bad, that's just how this one smells to me, like a fragrance that has gone off. Perhaps the dry down is better, but I couldn't bring myself to wear it.
