this perfume incorporates something that is Legendary. the strange thing is that in 1974 my Straight Twinbrother immediately chose to wear Gentlemen's fragrances whereas I, as a Gay Male, immediately wore the then and especially the in the 1980s appearing Heavy and Heady Women's perfumes. where we worked for 45 years as nurses I especially had the hobby of Fashion and Perfume. Ralph Lauren was the one designer who never had attracted me. not once did I found a perfume of his alluring or interesting. that is, except this one. I have never worn it but I owned it and I find it a spectaclular perfume. it embodies a rather oldfashioned Gentlemenship and all the aspects of Old Barbershops. it is an as subtle as intruiging perfume with a pleasant Opening, Heart and enduring Base. if I would wear this I would never feel as myself but that doesn't mean I can not deeply admire it or that it awakens a deep satisfactory feeling inside me. there are some other male Fragrances which also embody these qualities. Creed Bois Du Portugal, Chanel Pour Monsieur and then we have them. DS&Durga's Burning Barbershop. Aramis. never to wear them for myself but if I smell them they possess something enigmatic and truly masculin with sufficient elegance and sway. this perfume is timeless and effuses a sophisticated masculinity and groomed refinement. it is also always great to offer them as Birthday gifts or just inbetween. and of course then you share something of the 'Ralph Lauren Universe'.
