Why did you have to leave?
I knew Legendary by Harley Davidson many, many years ago. Unfortunately, like so many other fragrances, it had to go. A few years ago, I was already searching for this scent. In vain.
Back in my early teenage years, this was a scent that I "borrowed" from my father. Who doesn't know it as a child? You want to smell good and just help yourself to your parents' fragrances. I wasn't necessarily a big fragrance fan at around 13 or 14, but I loved this scent. Nowadays, this type of fragrance is no longer my number one choice, but I would buy this one again and again.

Legendary is pure masculinity. Definitely one of the most masculine scents I have had the pleasure of experiencing so far. Even though I now prefer sweet and fresh fragrances, I was totally into this one and wore it daily. Even though the fragrance pyramid doesn't look particularly extravagant, overall it was just so good. Fresh, woody, spicy, balanced, and above all, masculine. At the forefront is a fresh and pleasant wood blend that is present throughout. At the start, it is really fresh thanks to a wonderful bergamot. Added to that is a really strong spicy cypress. Cypress is usually not my fragrance note, but here it fits perfectly like a glove. Harmonious. Following the spicy wood blend is a pleasant patchouli. From start to finish, it is a great companion with high everyday usability, even though it is quite strong. It is also a great alternative for more formal occasions. For a masculine appearance, it is simply fantastic.
The performance is also very, very good. It lasts for many hours with truly impressive sillage. A typical performance powerhouse from the 90s.

Unfortunately, it has been discontinued. Why remains a mystery to me. There are thousands of fragrances that had to go unjustly. Unfortunately, there isn't really a fragrance twin for this one, as Legendary has a high recognition value.

Almost Forgotten...
This scent!

Unfortunately, I can no longer really describe it.
Neither the effect of the different notes nor their transition.

But one thing I can say: As a child, it blew me away.
It was one of Dad's favorite fragrances, and how I loved it when he came home from work and (mind you, still!) carried that scent with him.

A pleasant, masculine aroma that invites you to sniff. :-)
It's a shame that production has been discontinued!

Born to be Wild...
Wow, I thought to myself when I smelled the fragrance for the first time!

Legendary Harley-Davidson is a robust yet refreshingly versatile all-rounder.
After just 10 minutes, a thought struck me: where do I know this scent from?
I soon noticed a slight resemblance to Hugo Boss N°1, no, not a copy but just a simple similarity!
However, Legendary Harley-Davidson comes out on top in this comparison!

I find it very unfortunate that Legendary Harley-Davidson is no longer produced!
This fragrance simply has so much potential...

I give the fragrance 90%
The longevity I experienced: 4 hours 75%
The sillage; quite strong at the beginning 75%

Anyone who likes N°1 from HB would love Legendary Harley-Davidson...

Beautiful Memory
I first discovered this fragrance on a flight to a vacation in Iceland
and I immediately liked it. Generally, I am drawn to green, spicy, fresh
scents, but this one seemed particularly fresh to me. At some point, I
got some more, and suddenly it was gone. I am not aware of any harmful substances; that would be really bad!!

Soapy, woody, spicy, warm with an extra dose of gasoline. A brilliant representative of its era. Unfortunately discontinued.

Dark fresh mint meets bitter-smoky wood. The scent definitely fits the brand image.

This scent has to come to Wacken. I still have some left in the holiday cabin in the Vogelsberg. It fits there. Nothing against the Vogelsberg.

I'm going crazy! The perfect men's scent. Steaming-woody, it delivers everything the ads promise: freedom, adventure, horsepower.

I have no idea what was supposed to be great about this. It came in a leather pouch as packaging, but otherwise just cheap drugstore chemistry for me.

As far as I remember, it was a great fresh, crisp, long-lasting scent. Too bad it’s no longer available next to Route 66.

It's a shame that so many great fragrances are discontinued. This one was truly a very, very good companion. Unfortunately, I only have the empty bottle left :(

Smells like leather and gasoline, like a leather jacket worn on a motorcycle ride. It was a drugstore scent, but very good sillage.
