About this deal

Top notes are Nutmeg, Star Anise, Aldehydes, Orange and Lemon; middle notes are Cinnamon, Carnation, Pimento, Geranium, Heliotrope and Jasmine; base notes are Benzoin, Vanilla, Musk, Tonka Bean, Cedar and Ambergris.

Longevity is good if you apply a lot (splashing on the aftershave works best in this regard), but you must be careful not to overdo it, or the sweetness of the cinnamon, carnation and clove in particular can get a little overbearing. A unique composition will perfectly emphasise your outstanding image, complementing it with a real man's determination, confidence and resilience. Perhaps Old Spice was once sold at that level, then it's current makers decided to slide it downmarket. In fact, if women started wearing Old Spice, they would garner reams of compliments on their new, fresh, spicy amber.

Longevity is a problem with the aftershave as to be expected, will give the cologne version a go, too.

This smells more expensive than many of the designer and niche fragrances I have smelled on my fragrance collecting journey that started over COVID.I only use it around Halloween, sunday mass sometimes, thanksgiving day, Christmas eve, Christmas day, new years eve and new years day and through the end of winter.

A word about the two versions currently; the Indian version I am wearing is much softer overall and lighter on the carnation clove note. I never really knew what it smelled like until I got a new in package vintage bottle that isn't plastic. A nice simple, spicy fragrance for guys who are starting out or don't want to pay for the bigger names like Dior or Chanel just yet who are obviously going to give you a better scent and quality. Traditionally known for producing Old Spice for men, the company was in fact launched a year earlier with a scent for women.I have been fortunate to have purchased some recreations offered by various independents, upon trying them I instantly was taken back to my grandfather wet shaving, and completing the ritual with this classic (he even shared the final remnants with me). Old Spice Original has of course been reformulated a lot but it is still fresh, spicy, maritime and contemporary. This cologne smells of a badly perfumed, moth-eaten, musty, wool blanket that has been sitting in a trunk for too many years. I'm reviewing Old Spice, from a woman's perspective not because I wear the fragrance but I love the smell on the male species lol, I think Old Spice gets a hammering 'its an Old Mans Cologne' , . I sometimes will work out on lunch break and use it before work and I find myself loving it more and more.
