Perfect Subtle Wood Scent
(
This review is of the VINTAGE bottle of preferred stock by coty
)

This is a amazing wood scent with a blast of Aromatic smells.
When sprayed on you get a quick, short lasting smell of aromatic, citrus (now it might be me but I do not pick up the Citrus too well) and some alcohol. (excepted from old cologne like this) After this quick blast of a lovely combination of smells it quickly dries down to a subtle wood scent that makes me drop to my knees. It is truly a amazing smell and might be one of the best that I own when it comes to a wood smell that isn't too protruding. Now the longevity isn't the best (especially in the newer formula) but it does the job and gives you a solid 4-5 hours, but along side the longevity comes to projection and sillage, the projection is quite strong at the beginning but not headache inducing strong. but as said earlier it dries down to the base notes quickly, quicker then I'd like to be honest. It last around 30 mins - 1 hr then becomes a skin scent. The Sillage isn't the greatest and only last for the beginning of the scent.

Scent: Synthetic green notes, slight citrus, then dries down to a very natural fresh cut dried wood.
Smell: 10/10
Performance/Longevity: 5/10 (If sprayed on a sweater or something similar it last up to 6 hours)
Projection: 2/10
Sillage: 4/10
Bottle: 2/10 (Nothing special. Has plastic cap)
Sprays: 4
Overall: 7/10

A masterpiece hidden in an attic
Every now and then one hears of someone discovering a masterpiece of art forgotten in an attic or in a second-hand store. When I was at Art School I heard tell of someone local, who had stumbled across a famous artist's painting in a second hand store. This is somewhat like my experience with Preferred Stock. Walmart is not known as being the centre of culture (unless it is a culture growing in agar in forensics lab); however since I visited America for the first time and went to Walmart there, to me the place is somewhat exotic (there are no Walmarts in Australia, where I live). It is at Walmart that I blind bought a two pack of Preferred Stock (for $14.84 US not including tax). I had heard that it was a worthwhile fragrance, for those who liked old school or powerhouse fragrances and so on this basis I bought the two 50ml bottles. I wish I had bought more. To say this is a great fragrance is an understatement and it easily 'blows away' 95% of my fragrance wardrobe.

The scent is a citrus and lavender fragrance of great strength and pleasing longevity. Fans of Worth pour homme, English Blazer and other similar fragrances should love this one. It is clean, crisp and classy and has a simplicity that makes it a very 'honest' perfume. It is not pretentious and undoubtedly masculine.
