Mark Cross Mark Cross 1978 Eau de Cologne

At that time, really quite at that time, I think it must have been 30 to 40 years ago, my colleague at that time wore this scent. I found it soooooo great, this scent. The colleagues too.) It was a scent to run after. A strong, strikingly masculine scent. One that immediately caught my attention. Somehow a fragrance with which one associated only positive things. A Happiness-Mach-Scent. All the girls loved it then. It was usually the sporty, smart, confident type of woman who wore it.
I got a miniature as a present by chance and I hardly trust my nose...... This scent, which flashed me like this back then, somehow only smells like alcohol and (sorry) old-fashioned scent. What happened? Is it because of my nose, my sense of smell, that maybe has changed, or has this wonderful scent been changed?
I am totally disappointed:(
My evaluation is of course the fragrance of the past and not this adulterated water of today.
