“An enormous 1980s floral — tuberose and honey over oakmoss and civet, worn like a fur coat. Nothing made now smells this unafraid.”
The take
What works
- ●A genuine 1980s classic, still standing
- ●Complex in a way modern florals rarely are
- ●Bold and powerful from the first spray
Trade-offs
- ●Overpowering for anyone used to modern restraint
- ●The reformulation falls short of the original
