Even without our heartfelt Dad/Granddad associations, the original Shulton formula was just beautiful. Not to rain on anyone's parade, but I've got an opinion that is worthy of expression just like anyone else's. It's funny because this classic perfume is perceived to be cheap when the actual juice most likely costs more than many of the mainstream perfumes sold under big name celebrities.

Old Spice for men was inspired by a colonial theme and the company's founder opted for a nautical branding. I do remember this having a slightly more vintage tone in days past (my dad used to wear this), did they change the aldehydes?I also get the mid note of flowers and cinnamon and on the skin it leaves a vanilla and musky smell. 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. As another reviewer here has stated, it is sure to remind them of men they've loved in their families.

Some may turn their noses up against Old Spice due to it being a common and cheap fragrance, but for what it is it's actually a pretty good fragrance. If memories from those parties are correct, this scent layers well with beer, good whiskey, unfiltered Chesterfield cigarettes and the smell of gumbo and barbeque. Heart notes reveal the luxury and sophistication of black pepper, sweet jasmine, subtle accords of cinnamon, green heliotrope and blooming geranium. thankfully none of my older relatives wear this so i don't have the displeasure of associating this with old people. It performs so well in autumn and winter here so I better get wearing it before our hot Durban summers take hold.

Great for everyday use during the colder months, I personally wouldn't wear it during summer but that's down to preference.

I smell some resins and pepper (maybe that's the pimento, but carnation can be peppery), and also sandalwood (which isn't listed).

Spice and carnations, lacerations, stubbed toes, bruises, cinnamon and no knowledge of 'dry-down' are the major notes of this treasure. If the Rubicon formula had a better base with darker powder notes, it would be spot on the same as Shulton, although I still wonder if the top notes aren't too creamy.

A nice simple, spicy fragrance for guys who are starting out or don't want to pay for the bigger names like Dior or Chanel just yet who are obviously going to give you a better scent and quality.

If this is an "old man" smell then this is how I want to smell when I get old because it smells very nice. i think if i mixed tiger balm and baby powder and rolled around in a flower bed id achieve this exact smell.
