The last shout from Halston
This was the magnum opus from Halston. Couture was lost in the shuffle in 1988 as the market was literally flooded with every designer producing so many new offerings.
The bottle is iconic. Its sterling silver and gets tarnished. I polish it often. This seemed to be Halston's farewell gift to the world as he would leave it in the next few years. He was the most revolutionary US designer ever paving the way for the Tommy Hilfiger and Michael Kors in his wake. No one will ever raise a commotion like Halston. His fragrances were a major event in my life. They represented a night on the town.
It contains a sharp distinct very green chypre that is somewhat familiar yet truly original. Perhaps the last of its kind to grace our collections. Chypres began to get sweeter with less oakmoss in the following decade and are now gone forever. Its also clean without being soapy. It radiates elegance and Halton style 100%.
The flowers are well blended as is the entire composition. On my skin its flawless. Perhaps the tree above is missing a few notes? Galbanum, iris, neroli and a lot of green. Rose, patchouli, vetiver, oakmoss, amber and heavy woods are a potent and dramatic production here with the lights turned up on the dance floor. This is last call and there is some time for that last drink if you hurry!!!
Supplies are dwindling on line and do not hesitate if you are a fan or curious.
