Man, he's ugly as hell

Once again a memory of the 80s, my youth with head hair and the upper Italian Laghi after the motto: there was still something or someone...
Sergio Soldano Black, formerly just Sergio Soldano. Black flacon for Uomini and white for Donne. The brand has disappeared from the market even in Italy except for the fragrance division. Former competitors like Enrico Coveri, Renato Balestra or Roberto Capucci still live a modest life in the form of key rings, purses, socks or underpants, but Sergio Soldano disappeared without a trace.
The flacon, a fake of Trussardi Uomo 83, is butt-ugly, but fits the times (open shirt and gold kettle, convertible, Ray B’)
Arrogance Uomo 87 also copies the Trussardi flacon, but almost perfectly. Of course, who knows Roccobarocco Fashion Man, a flacon in the form of a Zippo, black rubberized, whereby the rubber after a few months develops a disgusting rancid surface reminiscent of adhesive strips for catching flies, will appreciate this flacon at least haptic.
The spray button is flawless.
The fragrance is a brother in spirit of Arrogance pour Homme 82.
That's what the Italians can do. Copy themselves and thus cover their tracks. It starts freshly woody with nicely dominating musk, then turns floral green and patchouli hits through nicely delicious at the end. Synthetics are strangely completely absent, though from the look and feel I would have strongly suspected them. An all-rounder that is wearable all year round, beyond 30 I would think charming.
