Dinner and a Show in Midtown
A manly scent with just the right amount of spice, powder, and creamy notes, in fact a nearly perfect blend of all three. In my view it's suitable for all seasons, but it leans toward fall and winter. It strikes me as similar to Égoïste Cologne Concentrée with less spice and without the off-putting animalic notes.

This is something high-powered businessmen and professionals in New York City wore in the 90's, something nice to throw on after work before a dinner, hot date, show, or a cocktail reception. The fragrance still captures that vibe. An upscale, metropolitan, complex, and cool fragrance with a personality all its own.

The original bottle for Jazz (1988) Eau de Toilette was really cool, so it's a shame that YSL stopped using it, but it's a boon that this quality fragrance is still available to purchase.
