Knowing Estēe Lauder 1988 Eau de Parfum

The 1980s re-interprets the chypre-bomb
Very 1950s, opens as big chypre bomb! It quickly turns very chypre-floral indeed, and reminds me of Chanel No. 5 Eau Premiere. It’s the late 1980’s reinterpreting the chypre perfumes of the early 20th Century.
It turns down some of the ‘cat-piss’ smell that the early 20th century chypres can overwhelm with and turns up the floral and oriental notes.
A very compelling perfume, definitely worth it at this price point!
