When I opened the box the smell was resonating from the package, I was very pleased. I sprayed it on lightly and it was close to what I recalled. You can sense this old masterpiece influenced many scents by Amouage, nasomatto and others. Today it is tough to find a fragrance today that will actually last the whole day. There’s nothing that compares to this 80s powerhouse.
It’s not exact but the dominant notes are there. I love this perfume but i did not buy because of poor longevity , surprisingly I found a matching Attar from my local store and that has crazy longevity . I don’t think anybody will think you smell good.
Ralph Lauren has mastered balancing comfort and taste to celebrate the delight in being American by focusing on traditional and decorative design in the spirit of conquest. I’ll be the first to say it; there is not only nothing wrong for a man to dress like a man, but more importantly, it is the way you should be dressing.

I put a little of the after shave balm on and wherever I went it left an odor trail.

Lauren stayed on as executive chairman and chief creative officer.
I do get the basil and drop of gin in the opening too mind, but overall it’s a leather and pine binge. I would suggest this for the mature man, 40’s and up. You won’t be getting huge compliments, as a matter of fact the opposite. This is a mature man’s scent and should be worn for personal enjoyment.
