Scent

Two worlds, one theme, many facets

The Private Line (dark bottle) was replaced by the Signature version (transparent bottle) by Tom Ford. In fact, I like both versions.

The private version is super green, multi-faceted and very playful. I once described this with a journey through the herb garden. The scent undergoes a strong transformation. And it's a little harder to understand.

The signature version is less complex and for me, it really only reflects the main theme of the fragrance (that wonderful zino note). Besides, the drydown is a bit monotonous. The Patch/Amber combination is less high quality, somewhat synthetic, even "sticky"
In the Private Line is for me the more exciting fragrance. It is exciting, versatile and complex The Signature version is the better one for daily use because it is cheaper and less dense and complex. Actually, as I was hoping. I keep both bottlings.

Durability and Sillage is similar for me. Actually, it's more about inner values than performance.

Interesting that you bring up the subject of the somewhat boring drydown. I feel the same way. Prelude and heart great, but after a few hours a little monotonous "ambry" mMn. Still a very pleasing scent.

I would be interested in the durability and Sillage in comparison - until now I only know the Beau de Jour from the Private Line and was absolutely thrilled by both durability and Sillage... What about the Signature Line? The same? Better? Worse?

Witty, the perfume consultant at the TF Counter at Douglas on the Zeil in Frankfurt last week insisted that the fragrance has been transferred unchanged to the Signature line. I missed the Private Collection version, and the Signature Verision was a bit too...pungent, biting from the middle out. I would have liked that one so much!

Ah thank you very much for the comment. I know what you mean. I really liked the private scent. Was a very pleasing barber scent and not as extroverted as others from the Private Line.

I think that besides 1 million Pac-Man and 1 million Monopoly there would be a place for an entry^^

...and it would make the perfume fragrance directory even bigger, more extensive, more gigantic! Parfumo, the largest encyclopedia of perfume in the W... oh what do I say, of the universe!!! :)

...and yes, why there is no independent listing of the variants here I don't understand either. For every carnival collector's edition of other fragrances, the same procedure is followed.

That's just like me! The wonderful Zino-Vibe was the reason for buying the Signature :-)!

You're right, Ivko. completely incomprehensible.

I think so, too, and so it is a pity that both are listed here together.
