    Mmmmm… a bit skankier and stronger than vintage No. 5 Cologne. Which is good news for me! I love anything that smells like a time machine. 😉
    Similar to the big vintages- No. 5 cologne, My Sin, Primitif– aldehydes and animal civet/musk heaven on top of florals. Powdery animal sweetness.
    There seems to be a bit of spice to this, making it spicier than No. 5. (mind you, this is only similar/alike to vintage Chanel No. 5 in cologne formulation.)
    I’ve smelled this before, BUT– they don’t make perfumes like this anymore, so therefore I love it and will prob start hoarding affordable bottles that pop up on ebay.
    Longevity for the Parfum Cologne is kinda meh. But on par with the other oldie colognes.

    Max Factor was the make up artist to the stars and his fragrances reflect the popularity of perfume at the time. Big stars like Rita Hayworth was a perfumista and collected many fragrances. Hypnotique is an old Hollywood glamourous boudoir type of scent. It’s really quite simple but not always easy to wear. I think of it as being something that would have smelled amazing on Elizabeth Taylor or Sophia Loren. This is indeed a hypnotic perfume. The scent casts a spell and you’re transported back to when perfume was perfume.
    The opening is fresh summer citrus. I detected lemon and bergamot orange notes. It’s a tad similar to Shalimar or really good aftershave. Then I smelled some white flowers, a mix of gardenia, tuberose and jasmine. I like white flower scents so for me this is a treat. It has a very old fashioned Fracas type of vibe. It’s all about those lush white florals with a heavy tuberose. A white wedding bouquet.
    The dry down becomes woodsy although no wood is listed as being part of the notes. There is musk and even civet. It’s spicy, floral and musky. Very elegant and glamorous, although it does tend to remind one of Church lady perfume. I bought this for my mother and she loves it. I do like it myself and dab on a little sometimes, especially at night for a formal dinner.
    For me there just is no such thing as a bad perfume. And this is certainly not a bad one.

    I had bought this frag as a teen in the 80’s. Little did I know it was a vintage from the late 50’s.
    One of my mother’s friends went absolutely bonkers and offered to pay me up to 25 bucks for a small decant bottle that cost $5. I said “no”.
    I liked it that much that I didn’t give it away…..actually , I would have most likely sold it for 50…..but…..
    I remember this as a very mellow fragrance, as if there was no alcohol in it, like it was a fragrant tea. Very musky, lightly floral, very sexy scent, yes….. hypnotic, if you will.
    I’d like to purchase it again, if I could find it.

    Ah, nostalgia! I haven’t seen this one in YEARS! I thought it was discontinued. Does anyone know? This was the only scent that I wore when I was fourteen years old, and the scent could not be mistaken for anything else.
