The scent of Italy
Love this unsung treasure that was thrown into my lap via eBay for a sick price so naturally I jumped on it. This particular bottle is vintage and it's quite old so I was very pleased when I found the scent still in remarkable condition. Since this was launched in 1981 this bottle looks like it's from the mid 1980s at least. The scent is minty forest like fresh and the performance is quite good. It's a little bit harsh in the beginning but that eventually calms down and settles nicely for the next 6hrs or so. Considering it's an EDC that kind of longevity is a God send. It reminds me of those post WW2 Mediterranean marvels like Pino Silvestre and Acqua di Selva with much better longevity. This is definitely an older man's cologne and young people won't have much to do with this Classic and that's a pity considering the slop that's being shoveled out currently. I think they're making around 10,000 bottles a year aren't they?? Lol Anyway Victor Fresco was a nice surprising find for me and it fits very nicely with the rest of my collection.
