To my nose, this is a powdery rose fragrance, in a fresh-spicy format. Not a fougere. Signature scent worthy if not so stupidly overpriced

Linear (but great smelling) pineapple, citrus, wood, and patchouli. People who think this is very oakmossy don’t really know oakmoss.

An excellent cheap leather fragrance. The comparison with Fahrenheit is overstated—no violet leaf or florals. But it is a bit dirty/earthy.

I don’t doubt that the original version is superior to the current formulation—but don’t let that put you off. The current EDT is great.
