The cologne has high quality notes that are very well rounded and balanced in a way that keeps getting my attention over the initial, potent projection, lingering aura, and long-lived drydown. As I have already said, this cologne while not a classic men's formula of darker deeper woods green notes or tobacco or spices, much less musk or leather, it's a masculine scent for a male who doesn't particularly care for cologne and would wear this after a shower to smell good for any occasion. Keep in mind that Rubicon's formula is the recent iteration of OS in India, coming after years of the Menezes Cosmetics' formula under the "Shulton" brand name (although it was never actually made by Shulton there). This fragrance has stood the test of time, and although I don’t have the older variations on hand, the newer one reminds me of CK Obsession but better.

we are talking about a product most of us associate with pleasure and possibly attraction; bias is the fun part to explore because we might learn a little about ourselves. My uncle didn't know it, but It was the sweet, cheap smell of car dealers that took me back, and made me dissolve into a dream of the past.

A unique composition will perfectly emphasise your outstanding image, complementing it with a real man's determination, confidence and resilience. If its popularity has waned, it's only because its use has diverted into it's sweet and fruity flankers like Wolfthorne and Krakengaard. If you want a classic Old Spice reborn as a fuller, richer, stronger, more fleshed out proper fine fragrance in EDP concentration, look no further than Paul Sebastian Fine Cologne.

Odd thing though is wearing the splash-on (wore too much perhaps) out in public, and having seniors actually say you (or rather the cologne itself. This is one one of the first aftershaves I ever bought as a teenager back in the mid '70's when I was 14/15 and had less hair on my face than my mother. A little splashed on the back of my neck was still discernible five to six hours later and getting more comfortable, stabilizing and, yes, nostalgic all the time; a lovely, dusty base with traces of musk, cinnamon, nutmeg and whatever passes for sandalwood. If one had to put only one cologne into a time capsule to describe the American male, it would have to be Old Spice, so that in the future, when mankind is long gone, an alien being from outer space can smell it and know what a man smelled like back on earth.This is really pleasant and fresh-smelling in a different way than "fresh-smelling" usually is construed today. The dominant character of the cologne is cinnamon, carnation and clove, as it is in the contemporary aftershave formulation, but here it is supported by a deep, almost butter-rum blend of benzoin, nutmeg and star anise that is truly mesmerizing. By 1938, Schultz released a second fragrance, this time an *aftershave* for men, simply titled “Old Spice”.
