    Nice office scent. Strong nutmeg, supported by lemon and fir, with vetiver drydown. Moderate projection.
    Not grounbreaking, but very wearable and good bargain (blind buy – $22 gift box with 3.4oz edt, 3oz shower gel and 3oz aftershave balm).
    Will not sell it, but won’t buy it again either.
    Fall/spring days, 30+

    Very fragrant smell of 80’s and 90’s!
    In the beginning I really remember the classic “Green Malizia”, but it has been a much better experience since the beginning! I would have to say that who would prefer to buy this scent to buy green Maliza because they are very similar to each other, but not so!
    This is a much more complex smell! It is more versatile in terms of its laziness …
    I think it’s still available at a price tag and it may be the reshaped version, but it’s classic and full of surprises …..
    Value for money is a great buy! The scent experience is a bit extraordinary and it is not obsolete at all! Its woody, earthy nature allows everyday wear and can even be special occasions! It is a pleasure for those who are wearing and for those who are in the vicinity !!!
    Great as it is for half a day on my skin, like the old one.
    Nice and eternal work!
    Ui: Malizia is an “Italian vetiver”, this is an “English fougere”!

    Herbal and cigarettes scent! (My second bottle now)
    I’m not a huge fan of 80s cologne but Dunhill Edition is awesome! I wearing it some times whenever I want to smell a bit bad boy ( I’m not smoking ) and want to leave a silage like smoker who just finished smoking and cigarettes aromas around my body. As you can see there no tobacco in the note, but the combination scent very similar to cigarette! Love it.
    I can imagine a man who wearing Rayban Aviator grasses standing beside the classic car from 70s-80s, wearing gray suit and smoking.. he wearing this cologne. It’s old school but timeless classic!
    If you wondering what it smells like, it smell like herbal spicy cloves, light citrusy (but not sweet and sour) , florals as background and cigarettes like vibes ( from mixed of nutmeg and dry vetiver)
    Very mature, very masculine and versatile, uniqueness and leaving the memory to people who smell it.
    The problem is performance, it last just 3-4 hours.

    It reminds me a bit of the current formulation of Halston Z-14, with a bit less cinnamon. I really liked Edition as a fragrance, but the performance was really poor, and as a result I returned it.

    My Review for “Dunhill *London* Edition” [Made in USA]:
    (from sample tester in shop) My first impressions were that of a musty cigarette ash-like smell (not in a bad way though), though images of woolen suits and businessy miscellanea came to mind. Very serious note, but sets the perfect tone for a manager or someone in a serious business setting.
    (after buying) smells a bit different. Wear to work – first in office. Office woman colleague walks into office and states that something smells of cats (I think the smell of cat’s urine). Must have got a bad bottle.
    – returned immediately – can’t wear!

    Right in the middle of Loewe 7 (dryer, more austere) and Cacharel Pour L’Homme (richer, sweeter), it doesn’t strike me as a ‘barbershop’ scent mostly because of its lightness, though is a really nice aromatic-spicy fougere with some sweetness in the background.
    A real grower on me, will give it some more time before scoring (or until i find a more satisfying scent in this genre).
    PD: I have the Netherlands bottle and performance is quite shy on me, 1 hour of projection and 5 as a skin scent.

    This is great I just got myself a bottle made (produced) in Holland (Netherlands) and the ones made in France are ones you should be looking for if you want some very good overall performance, the ones made in Germany and the US are pretty weak.

    I bought this in the year 2000 & still have 1/3 of it..fantastic smell..only will use it for special occasions..scent 8/10 longevity 9/10…sillage 9/10, an ‘”A’ list Frag…can’t get this in my country anymore..so goin to save the rest of bottle. Classic !

    Floral and spicy…
    Sweet and unappreciated…
    Not in demand anymore so bargain in price…
    Almost forgotten…
    In the 80s/90s, maybe I did not love you quite as much as I should… your smell is just intoxicating!!!
    You aged, yes you are an old lady now…
    Your performance is not like it used to be, but I still love you…
    If you were made by Creed, Amouage or Parfums de Marly, they would be talking about you every day…
    I still love you
    9/10
    [original formulation 10/10]

    I pray you secure the ‘Made in France’ version, not the insipid USA version. Ninety minutes have passed since I doused myself, and I chase the creation on the air, mouth turned down at the corners with the disappointment of it all. I wanted so bad for this to be as good as it once was.

    Try Dunhill Edition today. It open with Clove and Vetiver as background after 30 minutes I can caught a little bit of Geranium , Lavender and Jasmine but it a kind of dried flowers. This fragrance come with feeling like warm and spicy. Not for blind buy, please test first.
    Longevity is weaker than expected 2-3 hours! Good for a who ages over 30 (not for teenage) you will get some good compliments if you are smokers because this blend with tobacco very well!

    I am sitting on my leather couch on a cool late summer evening. The comforting, spicy sillage of Dunhill Edition envelops me as I bask in this little moment of perfect masculine enjoyment. This fragrance is so interesting, deep, and inviting. It is 100% manly as many ’80s colognes are. However, I find Dunhill Edition feels less dated, more at home in any era than so many of the powerhouses from those times. To be sure, there are similarities in DNA to classics like Quorum, Poco Rabanne, Polo (just look at the notes- sage, fir, nutmeg, geranium, cedar, lavender, oak moss). Its not the old school beastie like those scents, but it is more genteel, seamlessly blended, and thus smells less tied to a certain decade. For me, this is a fantastic, inexpensive, mature men’s fragrance that more guys need to experience. Just a good quality, old school aromatic fougere that is quite timeless- smell great, fellas! Give this a try.
    Update: smelled on the skin, I get a dill pickle vibe. Weird. Sillage scent is great, though!

    One of my all time favorites… if this Scent was sold by Chanel or the house of Creed you would see thousands and millions of people going crazy about it… but since it’s made by dunhill it doesn’t get the attention it deserves.
    Edition is more than just a perfume. .. it’s art in a liquid form. If Dunhill sold it for $1000 I would still buy it…
    10/10 A masterpiece unfortunately appreciated only by few

    I don´t know what the reformulated version smells like but the vintage one I own has a heavenly (but not heavy) clove note that blends beautifully with the nutmeg and this cologne lasts for many hours. However I wouldn´t recommend this to anyone under 30 (just my opinion).

  16. :

    4 out of 5

    A gorgeous floral and spicy Dunhill. Lasts and projects well on me. Edition has an attention getting silage and is a lovely man’s perfume.

  17. :

    First this perfume is refomlated and became different from 80’s version then it’s discounted for period of time. Now there are tow versions available one of them made in USA and the other one made in Germny I didn’t see the franc version for this reasons I don’t konw which one I have to buy.

  18. :

    3 out of 5

    Simply stated, this is my favorite scent ever. There is only one (minor) problem with it–it should last longer and have greater sillage. Otherwise, as close to perfection as I’ve ever smelled in a fragrance. I often pick up the bottle just to smell it because it makes me happy.

  19. :

    I wore it in 5th grade everyone asked what I was wearing. Short story aside; I’m so glad that it’s still available. This respectable masterpiece is for the gentlemen only.

  20. :

    3 out of 5

    Great scent but the US version is very weak and lasts on me 45 minutes seems very diluted, don’t get the box where its says Dunhill London Edition you have to get the box thats says Dunhill Edition, and the Edition word not written in a silver framing, or the best are the ones with the word Edition written on top of the lining of the box and Dunhill on the lower part of the box. I’ve learned the hard way or you could say the pricey way.

  21. :

    Thumbs up to cvaile’s review below, my thoughts exactly.
    Has to be one of the most inoffensive scents I have come across, that is not to mean that it has no character, far from it. Edition is subtle, warm yet fresh, it will give the impression that you are not wearing a cologne but have just walked out of the shower.
    Also from reading about problems with the longevity (mine is also made in the USA) personally I do not get that. After applying after a shower I still smell it at least 8 hours later, maybe it just reacts well with me.
    To be honest I have yet to come across a Dunhill that I even feel neutral towards, I find them to be well made (the bottles especially are beautiful in their simplicity) and perfect for when you are socialising or at the office as they tend to be restrained yet classy.
    Dunhill Edition is probably aimed at a mature (30+) market but I think a young guy would stand out as having class by wearing this at something like a job interview.
    Edition is slowly becoming one of my favorites 🙂

    At first when openning, l was uncomfortable with balsamic scent but after a few hours of dry down l found and fond of its base note of both oakmoss and fir, prevailing such a good scent for the grown up anyway this one is good to me it can be last for at least 8 hours in the warm weather.

  23. :

    5 out of 5

    This is a great masculine, subtle scent. This is an example of a scent that might prompt people to think “he smells great” rather than “his cologne smells great.”
    This does do better for me in cooler weather, and it would make a fantastic office scent but overall I prefer to wear it casually on the weekends or for home use (where I will reapply quite often as my fiance loves it on me). I also find it a good, reliable travel scent that never fails to get me compliments from friends, family and strangers alike.
    Elegant, soothing, complex yet approachable, extremely versatile by day/nigh/casual/formal and a STEAL at current prices.

  24. :

    3 out of 5

    Dunhill Edition can be summarized into a wonderful, refreshing, aromatic fragrance. This is an ideal cologne for warm weather, but it could work just as fine in cooler temperatures. Why? It has a fascinating cool/warm juxtaposition. Lavander, vetiver and nutmeg are what I detect the most. The vetiver/nutmeg combo gives it a warm, spicy backbone while the lavender and the citruses soften the composition. This is a quintessential gentleman’s cologne,a must have for fougere enthusiasts. It is from the 80’s and I should say proudly so. The decade of origin should not limit your ability to enjoy beautiful fragrances like this one. It bears a resemblance to Cacharel Pour Homme, but I prefer Dunhill because the nutmeg is tone down a bit, whereas Cacharel is very in your face.
    Smell great, my friends!!!

    I do not have all the sophisticated description of scents & perfumes but when it comes Dunhill Edition ( the vintage version)I can simply describe it as a perfume that makes you feel really good.I have about a 1/3 bottle of the old version and it spreads its fragrance just passing by it without even moving the bottle. I discovered this feeling recently when I “released” it from hiding and when I passed by the ambient smell it created I had this joyful good feeling and I believe that this is the ultimate that a great perfume should do!
    Dunhill have the duty and “must” kindly bring back the original version.I’m sure the new generation (I’m 61 years old)must have the same chance we had in enjoying it.

    The current version (made in USA) is still a watered down version of the original. Disappointing.

  27. :

    4 out of 5

    I’ve seen many Dunhill fragrances in the stores but have never owned any. However, I’m curious about its releases of the 80s and 90s particularly ‘For men’, ‘Edition’ and ‘Burgundy’. So, when I saw a 100ml bottle of Edition going for US$15, I simply couldn’t resist.
    I was really expecting great things after reading the overwhelmingly positive reviews about this fragrance here. People simply love this fragrance. On unboxing my purchase, I was a little disappointed with the presentation. The designs of the bottle and cap are distinctive and elegant but the cap felt very light and plasticky. Not a major issue but I can imagine the vintage products would have had a solid heavy cap. When I removed the cap, I noticed that the metal atomizer head is quite crudely attached to the bottle. It looked quite naked and unfinished. An attachment to hide the fold of the metal to the bottle would have made the presentation look perfect. I’m not complaining given the low price that I paid but it’s a great pity that this stunning bottle design isn’t given the respect that it deserves by the makers.
    As for the scent, well what more can I say that’s not already said here. It’s truly one of the most intoxicating, addictive, alluring, romantic, seductive,……..fragrance that I’ve come across. It’s amazingly complex with sweet, spicy, aromatic notes playfully swirling around me and delighting me through the day. Performance and longevity are absolutely remarkable. Two days after wearing it, I rushed back to the store to get a few more bottles as I decided that I’d never ever want to run out of it. Three of my friends after smelling it on me immediately went and got a bottle each. It’s really that good.
    A 9 out of 10 for this great scent.

    Just bought a new one and I can’t believe the 1984 vintage is back!Not like the 2-3 years previous production. Thank you dunhill. I’m so happy. 10/10

    Timeless fragrance for men, the scent never wears out. I bought a bottle just couple of days ago surprisingly scent still the same i had back in the 90’s. I must say and will always adore this dunhill creation. It deserves 10/10 score

    Please, If you are to try this superb masculine, you must obtain the vintage version. Why? It is rounder, richer and with excellent projection and surrounds the wearer with an ”old school” but by no means outdated sense of sophistication and grandeur. Dunhill Edition is one of those masterful blends that makes me understand why I truly love fragrances. A timeless masculine of good taste and class with a great sense of style. For myself, I would only wear this with a suit. It is one of those rare fragrances that exudes a subtle power and charm. Clove and oakmoss, slight citrus on top and the geranium and nutmeg so beautifully interwoven, this, for me, is a man who knows himself and is unapologetic in his chivalry and grace though knows how to be forceful and persuasive when needs be. James Bond in a bottle. For me, a masterpiece.

    Cartier Pasha soft version!!

  32. :

    4 out of 5

    It has absolutely N O T H I N G in common with Pasha de Cartier.
    I have owned two bottles of Pasha and one bottle of this. Pasha is natural, pretty and refined.
    This is synthetic horror and the worst scent by far Dunhill has ever released.

  33. :

    4 out of 5

    Classy fragrance, super in its composition and lovely fresh woody taint. It still is timeless. All of the Dunhills IMHO are great with a few that make it into my top 10. This is one of them. Everytime I wear it it takes me to special place. It is like beautiful wine, or woman you long for that sensation never to end. Makes one feel very special and distinct.

    I finally got my hands on the Dunhill edition. Oh man! i cannot expalin how nostalgic i am, right now. This scent brought back so many beautiful memories of my childhood. God has been very kind to let me experience that feeling, those days, those moments once again in this lifetime. The smell opens up with a nice rubbery note and the fragrance becomes so sexy after dry down that i feel aroused, bounded and captivated. The new composition is actually a flanker to the original one that i had 26 years ago but neverthless the feel is intact.
    I would suggest all men to have this permanently in their collection. You will never go wrong with this, be it day, night, office, party, home, gatherings, anywhere. Just anywhere guys. Its a sure shot real pantydropper.

    I think I have new re-formulated version. I was wondering how all of a sudden it was readily available in all stores. The newer version is definitely lighter, softer, and “watered-down” compared to the original. It does not even last an hour on me, and a person standing next to me can barely smell it. In my opinion, Dunhill probably should not have re-launched this fragrance if it was not going to stick to the original formula (which was brilliant!).

    En vacances somewhere hot? India, perhaps? Then this is as important as your malaria pills. Beautiful citrus, spice and woods with subtle floral additions. Great longevity and oodles of stimulating vibe to keep you comfortable from Tamil Nadu to the Himalaya.
    Been around a long time now, and easy to see why. Could quite imagine the great man wearing something just like this. Dunhill’s best for sure.

    Dunhill Limited Edition is like old baseball glove of my younger days. There’s something about it you just don’t want to give up untill there’s none leftover.
    After many years later, I was going through a store that had some discontinued fragrance’s and there it was a 100ml bottle which I wasted no time and bought it at a really good price.
    Now about this PHENOMENON fragrance, K1 hit it on the nail….it’s different. This juice has depth with herbal/woodsy notes with a touch of bergamot which is sinfully naughty when you want to tempt attention and it will do that !!!!
    The heart of this frag comes from nutmeg with floral notes of lavender and jasmine. This fragrance really becomes desirable from oak moss, virginia cedar, and fir….a really masculine woodsy aromatic scent being luxurious.
    Both amber and tonka bean adds to the warmth of this frag making it ABSOLUTELY nothing like anything else in the market…a real MASTERPIECE from Dunhill.
    Longevity and Silage are EXTREMELY high-quality.
    Overall opinion,
    Believe me when I tell you, if you want a fragrance which is considered THE BEST of Dunhill, Limited Edition is for you!!
    If you ever find it you’ll definitely understand what I mean that this fragrance is definitely unique and deserve the accolades.
    Thank you Dunhill for the AMAZING fragrance….10/10. ABSOLUTE five ★★★★★ :-)))

    in middle 1991 my family traveled to London UK, we stayed there for couple of months right after the war that my country was in, i was a child back then, & my mom & auntie always takes me & my brothers to oxford street, so we went to Selfridges once and there was that promotion of Dunhill Edition in the main sector. Models were the ones who markets this perfume, so you can’t believe how many lipstick was all over my face from those beautiful models. One of them were a beautiful tall Asian female model, once she saw me she thought i was Asian as well 😀 so the kisses again came on me like rain. according to that mom bought me this perfume where also it came with a medium to large handbag that until today i have it. & that was the first ever perfume that i got and since then it became my first passion and my love.
    as years goes by i kept on buying it, as i forgot i was doing this since just 2 weeks back when my younger brother told me that he wants some perfumes from me, and he asked me something that even took me back in time when he said “i remember few days back i smelled a perfume you wear that reminded me of the 90s when we used to play nintendo 64, and dreamcast in your room” then i took this perfume out and sprayed it on him, he felt quite comforting and happy as it truly reminded him of good old days.
    It is my long lasting LOVE.. it is very comforting and the best in their collection, or let’s say the only one that i’d wear from dunhill. it has lavender and few combination that makes it blissful.
    i have edited my comment as i was too harsh on the new formula which i tried on (23rd feb 2014) and i was over exaggerating calling it chaos as honestly it wasn’t that bad. what made me think it was chaos was me sniffing allot of perfumes at the same time as the sellers there was spraying allot of perfumes on my arm so they got mixed all together specially that the sellers was spraying the annoying collection of Thierry Mugler.
    i tried it just today again (19th April 2014) the new formulation…. the main different was the top note as they are kind of different in a way that the new formula has bitterness in it & it remains even if it dries down, but you won’t notice it much if you don’t have that sensitive nose. To me there are quite different things between the new and the old. i don’t want to be harsh again but there are similarity & i need to give it more time cause this formula is new, and even the formula that has been givin’ to me in 91 was 7 years old. it remains my loving memory and i hope the new formula will be the same.

    Dunhill Edition is a sophisticated and timeless masterpiece. Spices, florals, woods and so much more creating elegance and warmth in a manly manner. One of the most versatile fragrances I have ever worn. Edition doesn’t need to shout from the rooftops to make its presence known. It doesn’t try to be something it’s not. Wearing Edition simply makes me feel good with myself and the world around me.

  42. :

    5 out of 5

    I believe Dunhill Edition has been re-released as it’s become more avidly available online with a modernized box. Likely reformulated, but may not be discontinued after all. I happen to own a full bottle of the vintage version and will not know the difference between that and the current version for a while.

    Dunhill Edition, For Men, and D all come in the same bottle. That might account for the confusion? Personally I enjoy the Dunhill Fragrances, however they are strictly
    middle of the road in quality and price.

    @Housebliss…
    Are you sure your juice changed colour? There is a Dunhill ‘For Men’ than comes in the same bottle and is the colour you describe.

  46. :

    5 out of 5

    I’ve had this for a while, but I always thought the top smelled a little off. I bought a new bottle recently, and now I understand why the first one didn’t win me over.
    The one I’ve had the longest has gone bad. It has a golden brown colour compared to the new one which has a light green colour (the way it should be).
    It’s a very fresh, citrus/floral fragrance. I find the nutmeg in this is much more balanced than in Cacharel L’Homme.
    It’s really good.

  47. :

    As others have noted, this is a perfectly blended masculine scent. A terrific fragrance of professional presence and purpose, definitely one of my most favoured work scents. Never knew I liked clove so much until I really began to appreciate Dunhill Edition. May take some time to get used to, but when you do it’ll feel like a second skin.

  48. :

    A very nice perfume in the classic cologne style with citrus and spicy notes at the start and then dries down to woody vetiver and a tobacco note. I know tobacco is not listed but thats what it smells like to me. projection is kind of soft. you wont be knocking people over across the room with this for sure and longevity is also average, i get about 5 hours tops. it is a short ride but while it lasts it’s absolutely fabulous.
    A very polished, mature, refined fragrance, something you’d imagine somebody like Clark gable or Carey Grant would wear. definitely not for the boys!! The restrained projection probably makes this work safe but it is more of an “occasion” perfume for me. Like so many other great ones, just wish it would last longer.
    Edit: My dad loved it so much I gifted him my bottle. He is more of a gentleman than I’ll ever be and this suits him perfectly.

    Legendary, very unique, rare and definitely a masterpiece. Took me years to find, I saw it on sell in an online store, didn’t hesitate to buy it. Everything seems to be right, flowers, lemon and vetiver. 10/10 for this work of arts.

    This takes me back!
    Edition is so unique, green soap like, herbal and has a maturity about it but very odd at the same time. I’d completely forgotten what it smelled like until I found it again recently…I need it in my life…it’s incredibly smooth and delivers all notes in equal measure like a symphony of loveliness.
    Great stuff!

    a legendary fragrance. one of the best fragrances of all time. to me I give this masterpiece 10/10

  52. :

    4 out of 5

    This is one of my “3 only in a lifetime” acceptable fragrances. It scores a 10/10 alongside Eau Sauvage & Gucci pour Homme 1. Nothing more to say. The best ever made in the 20th century; mysterious aroma to those around that smell it and totally different from all other EDTs.
    Hmmmm… further note.
    I just bought this this week via Germany, not sure how, as its supposed to be discontinued and it smells different. Maybe I forgot the scent as its been some years or maybe its been re formulated. This one is similarly quite strong, very peppery drydown which is good in my book but definitely different. Difficult to compare as the (vaporous, haha) mists of time have separated my nose with this for at least 5 years. Has it been re formulated does anyone know and is it being made under licence abroad? Seems authentic enough original bottle.

    I got my splash bottle of this blind but cheap, right before it started getting harder to find. I think this may be the best straightforward spicy soap smell I’ve ever encountered. It smells a little old-fashioned to me but in an extremely respectable, non-outdated way. There’s enough soapiness about it to make it clean but not slimy-residue-on-your-skin soapy. It’s a really nice office scent but it’s not as utterly banal as a lot of other “safe” ones…a sort of compromise between subdued office and richly formal. It makes me feel like a guy who’s serious and smart at work, and wants to allude to a traditional professionalism without giving up the ability to loosen up a little and be candid with coworkers. It’s really too bad that it was discontinued…others in its family are still fairly good but borderline too sweet (I’m looking at you, Bois du Portugal!). Hopefully 1 oz will last me a while. Zirh Ikon is the best substitute I’ve found, albeit weak, but still cheap enough to just spray heavily. The Poor Man’s BdP, Pierre Cardin, is stronger and less sweet…another good cheap sub.

    I’m surprised to find so many testaments to its masculinity; I’m a woman and it has been a favourite for years. Although I began wearing it because my (then) boyfriend wore it and it reminded me of him, I have always found it very light and sensual, very modern and gender-neutral. There is a big, soft, beeswaxy quality about it as well as the wood and white flowers. Despite the touch of lemon and lavender, there are no sharp corners here, just a big soft balmy pillow of scent. Delicious.

    One of the best male fragrance in the 20th century. I’ve always wanted a fresh product but with the same exact formula as it was in the 90’s.
    Although there are many new fragrances on the market, this one still kicks!
    For it deserves 10/10

    This is one of the greatest blends I have come across. It is a masculine fragrance that, in my opinion, is timeless. The clove is so well blended that it never over powers and adds to the quality. Add the nutmeg, geranium and sage and we have a classic for a gent. Some may find this dated but I certainly don’t. This is what a man should smell like!

    A very traditional English Gentlemen’s scent. You can imagine gentlemen in suits having a shot of Johnny Walkers and Havanna cigar at Savoy, London afterhours.
    Unleashes with spicy citrus note with clove and nutmeg heating up the affair. The heart settles the fire somewhat with an infusion of herbaceous notes of cedar, fir with nutmeg and cloves. It does give me a leathery vibe too. The base note lightens with some amber, vetiver and fir freshness.
    It is from the era of Azzarro, Cacheral pour home and Aramis worn with tailored suits and braces formally and unbuttoned shirts and hairy chest casually.
    Hard to find close contemporary available scents, I’d suggest M7 fresh, Fahrenheit & possibly Gucci pour homme (although this has incense making it richer and smoother).
    Sillage & longevity is strong and long lasting 9/10. Possibly too strong of a scent for daily contemporary usage. Overall 8/10.
    P.S A hairy chest is mandatory!

    Well my perception is going to be a little skewed as its been over twenty years since I have smelled this. The old formulation opened with a fresh spicy citrus which was quite strong then it got woody and mossy in the dry down. It was strong and the topnotes were more sparkling and spicy.
    The new reformulation seems very muted and light in comparison. The topnotes do not seem as spicy or as strong as I remember and this one seems to be more herbal than I remember too. It seems like a “diet coke” version of the glorious eighties version, maybe its my memory.
    I like it as it still has that classic gentleman’s old school spicy citrus/woody character but it smells like it has been watered down compared to the eighties version. I hate what they have done to a lot of the classic eighties fragrances as todays versions are a pale reflection to the glory of what they should be.
    Eighties original formula: 9 out of ten.
    Modern Reformulated formula: 7.5 out of ten.

    There aren’t very many details about the smell of this fragrance. And only three reviews. I am trying this today is a sample and I like the opening notes which are very fresh but have a slight woodsy/spicy smell to them. I cannot detect lemon at all! It starts off with a hint of spice, and I agree with the review below that there is a little bit of clove that I detect. For me it is very light which is why I think most people don’t “love” but would rather “like” this product. After in the middle notes for me come out in the form of a more woodsy fragrance. So think spicy at the beginning, woodsy at the middle and end, but maybe it’s just my nose but I don’t detect any floral fragrances at all! Not a whiff of carnation, rose, or lavender. So I think the category for this it would be better placed under Woody Spicey. It does hang very close to the skin and is very professional smelling. I think this would be geared towards those over 30 to 50. I don’t know about the longevity because I’m only into my second hour of wearing it. I think I would have to purchase a bottle and truly get a spray rather than a dabber to see how this fragrance spreads. Overall though I would say it
