1000 Jean Patou 1972 Parfum

How should I explain it, the Chypre? I don’t know. It’s similar to the universally popular offside in football. Please define! Uhhh.... I can’t, neither one nor the other. I recognize it/him as soon as I see it, or have a representative of its kind under my nose.
"1000" is 100% a Chypre. Just like they were thrown onto the, at that time still manageable, market in the 80s (probably even before that) in large numbers.
A successful conglomerate of various components, which I can hardly perceive individually,
The typical Chypre-nose "gong" is unmistakable.
Strong, assertive, and with a radiance that is rarely found today, in this form.
Very familiar, this scent reminds me of bustling, sunny summer days in the big city.
Of a time when one would generously spray heavy, loud perfumes completely unbothered on warm to hot days. Wonderful!
I personally didn’t wear this or any other "Jean Patou" back then, I was too young, or they were too "old", in any case, too elegant.
Nowadays I might give it a try. With a "little atomizer", very lightly dosed....
Great scent, reminiscence potential full 10 points.
