The Strawberry Top Note
This classic has now been around for 90 years. One of the very few that still exists in almost unchanged form. Alongside "Tabac Blond" by Caron, it was probably the first true leather scent of modern times for men. According to Tania Sanchez...

My Spring and Summer Fragrance 2017
I have a somewhat divided relationship with Armani. Fashion-wise, I tend to be rather conservative and particularly committed to the (non-)color black, which I like on one hand but on the other hand, the overpriced mediocre designer...

Havana was my first men's perfume in 1995/96. I was both shocked and fascinated by the spices and aromas that sprayed out of this blue conical bottle. Until then, I was only used to Cool Water, CK One, and Be. But this one olfactorily surpassed...

Committed to the Spirit of the Times
The 70s and 80s were characterized by rich, mossy, heavy, room-filling, testosterone-laden distinctive fragrances like "Azzaro pour homme," "Antaeus," "Patou pour homme," "Quorum," to name just a few. A bit later, "Boss No. 1" and "Zino"...

Cold Clear Water
Prometheus. Intro. Creation scene. The camera flies over wild, rugged mountains shaped over millions of years. Torrential streams, wild rivers sending their cold clear water rushing downstream. Rugged, harsh terrain. It is cold. The snow has not completely...
