Another discontinued Halston flanker
Halston Z came on the scene very quietly in 1998 as a Woody flanker to the original Halston Z-14. This is a mediocre Masculine Aromatic that underperforms in a big way and that's a huge disappointment, considering the scent itself is really nice. I still love Elsa Perettis bottle design as it's immediately identified as a Halston product and could've been found in any drugstore. Back in 1998 I was 27yrs old and back then I still had a big interest in fragrances but for the life of me I simply cannot remember this one at all. I'd love to get my hands on Amber Man because I have a feeling that one is a winner but every time I look for it it's always sold out. This fragrance has notes of Bergamot, Coriander, Lemon, Mandarin Orange, Lavender, Cedar, Geranium, Juniper Berries, Lily of the Valley, Jasmine, Neroli, Oakmoss, Musk, Vetiver, Ambergris, Sandalwood and Palisander Rosewood. Boy I wish I had a better trained nose so I could better identify the Fragrance note by note so I can get better at fragrance reviews. Everything I talk about comes from my memory and maybe I'll tell a story or two. I have a Vintage bottle from French Fragrances that's well blended and has a light woody scent that unfortunately dissipates much too quickly. In fact, the Longevity as a whole is mediocre at best. This Eau de Toilette, you'd think, would or should last longer than 4 or 5 hrs, especially when you consider the note lineup here in but with fragrances I swear you just never know so you have to just hope for the best. Halston Z is definitely not a popular or much discussed Fragrance but that doesn't mean that it's no good. In fact, i like this Woody Fougere and it does have some positives going for it. It's a pleasant, inoffensive and linear fragrance that'll take you back to your younger years and last but not least I have no idea whether or not this was ever reformulated but considering the fact that there's Oakmoss in the base I'd say yes to it being reformulated.
