British aristocratic stiff soap. Cold citrus notes over lavender herb, floral bouquet at the lapel, bitter orange & clove. A delight!

Floris isn't usually my thing, but this one sounds pretty good.

Definitely very fine and British, but not really my style at all.

I think it's great... and really quite British.

I can feel that it belongs in my gallery of ancestors.

Since you own No. 89, you probably won't dislike this one. No. 127 is the lighter and less "dandy" version of No. 89. The only question left is which one you would prefer.

Familiar notes, but the combination makes the difference!

You could probably trace everything back to Eau Sauvage when it comes to an Eau Fraîche (which is more than just a regular Eau de Cologne), but that wouldn't be entirely accurate... this one is closer to Eau de Cologne while still staying true to the original idea. I really like it.

It's very nice and has been on my wish list from time to time.

I think as an "old" Brit, you should consider getting it soon :), especially since you can find it online for a pretty good price... I'm really excited about it.
