About this deal

This fragrance balances kind and sexy at the same time, and as much as I respect lavender it is far from being my main weapon but in this case I shall make an exception knowing full well I'll find it too boring or synthetic in a week's time.

i know it's almost a blasphemy, but i think this one is even better than the so much loved paco rabanne. Unlike some online retailers, all of our products come in the original manufacturer packaging and are 100% genuine. My uncle passed away last night and it was a cool, crisp spring morning today, so I decided to reach for my favourite from the house to honour the situation, Bogart signature. Bogart is akin to a nice country home or cabin, sitting on a back porch with your feet up, cleaned up after a long day. This is a spicy, dark green fragrance in the vein of Tsar, Polo Green, Quorum and Jaguar for Men; though this might be my favorite among them.Regarding comparisons, Bogart doesn't smell like Quorum to me, but it's the same general wheelhouse. Oftentimes referred to as Jacques Bogart Signature, it's easy to remember that from the cool fountain pen design on the box I wish was part of the bottle design, but that's ok. Wearing Bogart now feels like I'm getting plucked out of time, not just to the 80's but to any time period before the internet, smartphones, and now, the advent of AI. My nose sniffs out the heart notes of cloves, juniper, and nutmeg quickly and they're comforting and easy to enjoy. I definitely get cherry pipe tobacco fragrance notes even though this is not listed in the fragrance notes above.

The drydown will also somewhat change and loose a bit of its dark essences once it reaches its final stage. However, for being a Bogart fragrance, it surprisingly does not perform as well as the other Bogarts (which are all nuclear), so I ended up giving this away - although I do love how it smells. The first hour of the drydown is to die for as the aroma fades into a bitter and fresh tobacco accord that plays around with the fading middle notes.A great fragrance for those who want a classy, streamlined and modern scent but want something more unique. In 1975, there were only about a half dozen fragrances that attempted birch since 1828, the note I was most drawn to in selecting this one. It's on the sweeter side and it definitely approximates the cherry tobacco thing you find in Naxos, but this is much more focused on the musk like a late 90s fragrance, not the tonka focus of today. The floral notes are reminiscent of Xeryus Rouge and Insense but done better here which is saying something about the composition.

totally wearable in any situation and not too overpowering or obnoxious that it cant be worn in the summer.

All the cheese of that era is suddenly being acknowledged for what it was - bold, confident, self assured. Just a little bit sweet lemon at first, then cloves-levander-juniper and finally oakmoss, birch and a touch of leather.

It is strong enough that caution needs to be used to avoid over-spraying: I stick with one spray to the chest and one per wrist, at most. Nowadays your lucky to get something that actually makes a statement and smells good without being a mass produced copycat cash grab.
