80s Barbershop Bluebloods
My predecessor is absolutely right: no matter how noble the name sounds - "Château Philipp" is a more modern 80s barbershop lavender. So, if over the years you became a fan of the Stuttgart fragrance wizards and used to reach for masculinity multipliers like "Drakkar Noir," "Caesars Man," "Sung Homme," or "Taxi," you have discovered your more refined twist on this cool, albeit somewhat outdated subgenre.
Essentially a soapy-sweet, synthetic lavender - as if you’ve thrown neon shoulder pads over the famous scent and let it talk with its red blinking car. I love the 80s, I liked this direction for a while, but nowadays none of the representatives are in my collection anymore. I can't handle them as well anymore, I prefer things to be more high-quality, finer, and more natural. It sounds snobbish, but that's how it is, and it's purely a matter of taste. If you've been a Drakkar fan your whole life, you definitely have good taste and can't go wrong, you're confident and sexy as the 80s. However, I only had a brief phase in this direction. Trying is better than studying.
Bottle: the castle masters focus more on the contents.
Sillage & durability: both more than satisfactory, noticeable, lasting - 6-8 hours.
Conclusion: the castle perfumery bows to the old sea dog "Drakkar Noir" - a neon lavender between punk and disco.
