My Happy Halloween #SOTD 👻🎃
(The scent and the bottle are spooky; I think it should be on a dresser in The Haunted Mansion at Disney World!)
EUCRIS

It should! Even the label is scary, looking like something on a tombstone.

Cuvée, Ferrari. 1988.

It immediately reminded me Montana Parfum d'Homme.

Is it the "extra rich" or "extra dry" version?

SOTE: Bayrhum Vetiver by Creed

Green flannel...the vintage versions are better than the more recent....

I don't know, I don't have the box...I didn't see anything mentioned on the bottle.

Which versions do you have there? Sanofi or FF?

I'm pretty sure I had a bottle of the Cologne (Epocha/Cochrane) version back in the day as I've been wearing Grey Flannel since the early 80's.

The 2 on the right are 80s bottles, but they are minis so cant determine wich distributor. But they only have new york on the bottle, wich indicates older years. I couldnt score a big bottle so went with this. The other ones are 90s bottles as far as i could determine, also with some help from the seller. The older bottles smell waaay better. Still want a 80s big bottle!

The only thing I'm wearing with any consistency is Antaeus Sport.

It is coming up on 200 recorded wearings. Tonight when I took off the cap, I got a blast of patchouli. I usually don't pick up individual notes, and that moment of clarity was lost as soon as I sprayed.

Some more frequent thoughts are:

1. How could the people I've sent samples of this not be more into it?

2. For fans of Antaeus and Ho Hang Club, this has to be the perfect middle ground. And

3. Basenotes came up trumps leading me to this one.

Lauder for Men is my SOTD.

I've struggled to date Grey Flannel bottles due to there being so few distinguishing marks, but the base of the bottle should tell you who the distributor/supplier was.

Oh it’s great stuff, no doubt. Just hard to come by.

Also, look for “Cologne” instead of “Eau de Toilette.”

Tonight I’m wearing Alviero Martini Uomo. I really like this slightly spicy/herbal fougere.
