My go-to on the dog days of Summer
MODERN VERSION 2005+

Excellent fresh Spring/Summer green scent. The zesty citrus opening leads to a woody, floral dry-down. Its performance is slightly better than most Summer fragrances, but still nowhere near I'd want it to be. Alongside Trussardi L’Uomo and Armani EPH, this is my go-to on dog days.

Masculinity Level: Magnum PI teaching a hot girl how to swim.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

VINTAGE VERSION (1990-2004)

The vintage is less fresh, and is more suited for Spring and Autumn rather than Summer. The dry-down is richer, woodier, closer to Boucheron Pour Homme.

Masculinity Level: Still Magnum PI, but he’s not at the beach.

Every beginning is enchanted...
... this applies, for me personally, exactly to this special, albeit already outdated and, as I have just noticed, newly created scented water.

Everything has its beginning here. For me unforgotten and the magic is unbroken until today, because it revealed to me a whole world - more precisely the olfactory world regarding perfume.

I don't know the 2005 version, so I dedicate my comment to this original version, which I owned in 1998. It was my first perfume at the tender age of 14, which I was allowed to smell during a trip of the confirmation lessons at a co-confirmant. It fascinated me and the scent never let go of me and after I had softened all the nerves of my mother, she gave it to me, completely incomprehensibly like such a young boy (I repeat, 14 years), this scent only could wear?

So it had happened and I carried him with love and passion, every day, to school, in leisure time, even to sleep at night. Unfortunately I can't make any more 100% reliable statements about the course of the fragrance today, I only know that he had a good shelf life - felt and remembered, half a day (at warm temperatures) and the sillage was so trimmed, that today's fragrances (designers) are allowed to orient themselves on it now and then.

I owe this oldie that comment. It is my origin for the interest in perfumes and the beginning of a 21 year journey that will never end as long as I smell.

Exactly four fragrances, have immortalized themselves, today, trend-setting and formative with me:

1. Nino Cerruti - 1881 pour homme (in 1998)

2. Chopard - Heaven (around 2000)

3. Creed - Aventus (2016)

4. Tom Ford - Oud Wood (2018)

The 16 years between 2000 and 2016 were a wild journey with many great scents, but none of them had "guided" me.

I don't love everyone anymore, but I am indebted to them forever.

It was a b-day gift in 90. Not my cup of tea at that time, it made me sick. We change over time, and now I love it, due to the reformulation
