The first time I tried this sample, I didn't like it. At first I heard a cold, old-school scent, more like a citrus and cucumber cologne from the past. It was flat on the skin, with more facets on clo...

A stunning classic. Originally this was released by Guerlain in 1959. It has been reformulated over the years, and gone through many bottle changes. The current bottle I have is from 2018, in a tall b...
