Two things are necessary to our work: tireless perseverance and the willingness to throw away something you've put a lot of time and effort into. Albert Einstein
Fragrances, perfumes or whatever you want to call it are actually still luxury products. The products in the middle segment like an Eros belongs to it. It's stuff you buy when it promises uniqueness and sovereignty.
The fashion with the supposedly higher concentrated perfume creations is somewhat on the wane, it still exists in numerous forms.
The Cool water intense eau de parfum was a good descendant of the too aged and too oldfashioned original cool water which works well in durability and zeitgeist. The Eros Parfum can unfortunately not continue this flow.
Something veiled and uninspired it smells no stronger or weaker, just more boring than the original. Sharpness or spice makes the Flame in the red design really well, this perfume descendant is unfortunately completely lifeless and with a question mark. One doesn't understand why this fragrance exists at all. Sloppiness in marketing or just overtiredness and the false belief after easy ruble without much effort.
The durability is weaker, the appearance less dominant and the finesse is missing.
The sweetness is close to the original which lasts longer despite being lighter.
This from the point of view of Eurotialia actually a genickbrecher, as this perfume remains a mystery. The patchouli is here more mixed with the vanilligen. Otherwise unclear what this one does differently than the first blue one from Versace.
A reformulation of the original Eros would be an explanation, but took place after two years after checking the new badges felt not.
For an otherwise success-proven Euroitalia, this throw probably falls very short.
Hopefully the really good products like Blue Dylan and the Flame will be retained and such bottles will be discontinued for more innovative new releases.

People who are always thinking about what others think of them would be very surprised to know how little others think about them. Bertrand Russel
With Brioni it is such a thing, there is a blog of a guy who wears a not really fitting suit of Brioni and tells and explains how cool is such a thing. The whole video makes you think why what is possible, such a bad fit and such an overconfidence of this guy. Brioni is not fast fashion and you can't wonder why these suits are so expensive. The pieces are all hand made and even the button holes on the cuffs can be opened. This does not exist even in a Pal Zileri suit, maybe I missed something.
Exactly the same with this fragrance, it's not a sillage monster, it's not pungent, it's not hey there I am. Distinguished is possibly a description that fits. This Brioni is quite distinguished and has class. You will find this in vain in many mainstreamers, what is absolutely positive and pleasant in the foreground here is missing in most of this class. A Immergeher which reminds me of the Bally fragrance from the eighties. The sillage is not too strong yet always perceptible, in the manner of a majeure dissey which is also permanently here, but never tends to overload.
The longevity is amazingly good, here Lalique has pulled out all the stops, you can see the signature of Michel Almairac which has shown all his skill. No fragrance of Puig or Loreal currently has this understatement and still makes such a good mood.
If you are looking for a daily companion, which generates style, class and also still good feedback makes you with this Brioni everything right. If one looks for however a space filler, then an Eros, Le Male Parfum or AMen is the better choice. As a signature or signature also suitable, here is the Baldessarini from the nineties also very present, which has a similar finish. The comparison with Cool Water is not recognizable, the comparison with Fahrenheit only conditionally, because it becomes relatively quickly woody and warm.
A recommendation and a bow to Lalique.

Every generation smiles at the fathers, laughs at the grandfathers and admires the great-grandfathers. William Somerset Maugham
The Ur-Le Male is unfortunately only a copy of its time or shrunk to an old father. The durability and the sillage is compared to the earlier batches, according to my own memory only a hint of that time.
After twenty-four apparitions with the same torso, the thirteenth perfumer has finally and unexpectedly had the courage to focus a little more on durability and strength since the ultra-painting. Most of the successors all felt twenty minutes at sea and then drowned miserably.
These times seem to be over with the dinner jacket and the great self-confidence of a dreamboat captain, the fear of a narrow-breasted and mismatched silvery iron does not come up here. The air bubbles of the eternal charmer of the Black Forest are also not an issue.
The dominance goes in the direction of the Haddock, which repeatedly mentions its tirades of flight over the strong lavender. In memory of the four times cheaper Uomo of Ferragamo, this space filler appears pleasant and harmonious.
For lovers of the right values such as freedom, honesty and loyalty, this dark beautiful Beau in his Dinner Jacket is right and well invested.
It does not look cheap or in any way artificial like many comparable products in terms of durability. Despite the vanilla, it is not immediately spoiled, which would be a reason, since the presumed cedar wood has a very balancing effect. It is also not superficial and annoying like many cruise ship polluters, who bore each other to death in irrelevant small talk.
Despite the weight it has a lot of power and pleases quite well.
Was there a French Admiral godfather here? Memories of the intense Dior come up, through the iris which was stored in the olfactory memory as such.
As an alternative to the as mentioned unfortunately weak ancestor a good alternative, but rather as a new independent fragrance which only by chance has the same upper body.
The top solution for people who want to perceive their own scent under the face mask.
For purists and the fresh pleasant-for-the-environment-smell consort not exactly recommended as an entry-level product.

The superfluous is a very necessary thing. Voltaire (1694-1778)
The presentation in the shop window of the big dealer with the many shower and cleaning products and the department store on the first floor, is actually ok.
The connection with the actor Arnaud Valois in his green polo shirt comes across as attractive, fresh and quite certain of victory.
The campaign appeals to the customers very well adapted to a summer day like today and a temperature of 33 degrees. The anticipation to receive a good Lacoste is great, the disappointment afterwards once again programmed.
No men's fragrance should be so strongly floral with a sweet smell, this species belongs in the ladies' world. For a men's fragrance in a polo shirt it is too flat, sweet and much too sticky.
Lacoste or better Coty has started an unfortunately superfluous attempt to connect the world of polo shirts, the real supreme discipline of Lacoste, with a fragrance. Why this story was not started with the classic Lacoste pour Homme and a newer and better development is incomprehensible. The association with a fragrance and a polo shirt has always been this one, published in 2002, pour homme. The perfumer Labbe did herself no favors with this order.
The scent is already eliminated in the preliminary round.
Every x-any Axe, Rexona or Old Spice is superior to this weakling in the green elevator. One remembers another sport in which the English ski jumper Eddie the eagle made a fool of himself, only this one was cult afterwards.
The Axe wild Green plays this Lacoste in the condition loosely to the wall, it is not to be understood how such a count of Münchhausen can be related to a match point at all. Not even wild card worthy is this laughing stock.
After an hour the sad game is over and nothing more can be seen. Vetiver and cashmeran is at the top of the text, nothing is to be seen in the bottle.
If that's Coty's strategy for Lacoste fragrances, then soon there won't be any justification. This would be the time for the Lacoste family of owners, Maus and Nordmann from Geneva, Switzerland, to seriously sit down with Coty to put an end to this behaviour. Here the license has gone completely out of hand.
The perfumer Francis Kurkdjian once said that many orders for fragrances are not even finished yet (source not found anymore), but the marketing department has already finished the whole campaign. This is the biggest problem of Lacoste, the fragrances are not in line with the marketing department.
After the Timeless and the Intense, Lacoste continues on the path to insignificance, which is not even worth zapping past the match point on TV

Compliments may be a pleasure for the self-confidence, but never a medicine. Ernst, Prof. Dr. Christian
Most of the fragrances I like for myself and I wear them because they support my mood for the day.
It can happen that I study a fragrance when it comes back about a repurchase or to whom I will give it away
Not so with this playing boy, he runs after you whether you like it or not, he hides and suddenly he comes out in front of a rack and announces loudly that he is still here. Either this snotty brat annoys you or the humor wins over this naivety and kindness
As an advocate of strength, directness and sovereignty, he must be considered a top performer. He is peppery and off-beat in the opening like no other fragrance in this price range.
For a designer product Euroitalia has pulled out all the stops here.
The new Eros eau de parfum also gives hope.
The only disadvantage of the cash register in the miller is that you have to be very resistant against discriminating looks, similar to a love utensil, with this little black bear in leather on the cash register tape. Not all righteous citizens and people who prefer to watch other people rather than themselves understand this.
The heavy metal fan with the thin long hair and bald forehead with the Axe-Wilde scent, the tank top with the worn light blue jeans and the black old shoes that smell all the way to the cardholder, this bear is a mystery.
Just as for the Jack Wolfskin Shoftshell-mid-forties with the healing sandals which probably also come from the adventurer Jack, the accurately boring haircut and the organic ear-sticks, this one doesn't resemble a homosexual bear at all and is a declaration of war on normality and virus-like conventionality.
For all others an absolute recommendation. No one lasts longer and remains true to his line.
Nutmeg appears quite dominant after pepper and leaves many contemporaries with the question what smells so pleasant here.
With the compliment index of 0-10, for example, an Eros is on a seven, this blackboy is on a nine.
The feminine rose with clove leaves no one cold. At temperatures around 32 Plus, it still goes, but with the necessary caution, as the compliments could quickly change into feelings of annoyance.
If this happens, however, I stand up straight with my leather suit, pull my dark leather cap up and show the alleged harassment victim with two fingers and the gesture on him afterwards to my eyes that I am watching him...
