Old Spice Original After Shave Lotion 150ml

Product Information

Nevertheless, it’s a distinctively masculine fragrance and its manly connotations denote virility and a certain gruffness. The splash can be hard to control and its easy to end up with a large puddle in your palm. Nothing comes out as you start to serve until the bottle is horizontal. However, when the bottle does begin to pour, it is exceedingly zealous. Therefore, caution is advised when applying. In Europe, the fragrance still comes in its famous white glass bottle. However, the USA now only features plastic bottles. Old Spice has a conventional life cycle, which avoids being entirely linear. It follows a decidedly classic dry down as the notes evaporate. The head, heart and base are clearly discernable whilst laced with transitional notes that pave the way. It’s a mature fragrance given its association with fathers and grandfathers. Nevertheless, it is perfectly wearable for younger men and Old Spice has been marketing itself thus for several years.

Fans of Old Spice often talk about their associations with the cologne more than the fragrance itself. Most people will whimsically refer to their fathers or grandfathers. Some will even reminisce about their first loves. I wish so much I could find the OLD ORIGINAL scent in a gift set. Its an amazing cologne that my dad used to wear, and my husband loves it. I hope OLD SPICE will have an aniversary set for those of us who love that old school clean smell Therefore, Old Spice has neatly established itself as a classic cologne and can be defined as one of the most iconic barbershop fragrances in history. The Life-Cycle Of Old Spice Original Old Spice is a surprisingly resilient aftershave. Even when the wearer will think that the fragrance has entirely expired later in the day, it will project faint notes of resin and vanilla.

Old Spice Original’s Composition

Old Spice’s secret weapon lies in its ability to provoke strong emotions through olfactory memory. Its composition is deeply rooted into both American and British collective consciousness. Its projection therefore is surprisingly delicate for a classic masculine cologne. Similarly, the sillage is very moderate and doesn’t leave much a trace when leaving the room. The aftershave comes in a splash bottle rather than atomiser. The plastic stopper, which used to be grey, is now a striking red that matches the bottle’s details. That was an excellent fragrance review, I must read your others. As a kid growing up in the 1970’s I always remember seeing bottles of Old Spice in the bathroom medicine cabinets, as my two older brothers and father were the primary users. What a great smell. Also, interesting how you mentioned people seem to like the nostalgia value more than the fragrance. The olfactory receptors have such a strong connection with our long-term memories, more than any other sense. So I can see the appreciation for Old Spice as it delivers an easy way down memory lane. I actually bought a new unopened bottle of the Original Aftershave in 2015, which I still use today. It is the ceramic bottle, large sailing ship on the front, grey cap and made by the Shulton company in New Jersey. For a bottle going on 30+ years it still has maintained its fragrance, which I find pretty amazing. Cheers mate! Unfortunately, the Original Aftershave has been all but discontinued in favour of the Classic Cologne. You can pretty much only find it in Europe these days.

Old Spice Original Aftershave Review: A Classic American Old Spice Original Aftershave Review: A Classic American

You mentioned that the Old Spice Original you tested was made in France. I’ve heard of versions that are made in India. Do you know if there’s any difference between the two? My I ask . I am in thailand. i have a bottle of old spice original. but it is not like old spice from us or euro. it is a all red box and the bottle is all red too . the old spice logo change from sailor ship to a yacht. it is from p&g . i just want to know does it smell the same as the white(original) bottle? Once again, you’re thinking of the Old Spice “Classic Cologne” and not the “Original Aftershave”, which are two different products. Sadly, the plastic bottled Classic Cologne is everywhere whilst the glass Original Aftershave is quite hard to find in the USA. Fortunately, they only produce the Original Aftershave on for the European market so you can still get hold of it. New products were introduced at the turn of the 21st Century and Old Spice was the subject of an aggressive marketing drive in the early 2010s.

The musky and mineral amber resin is the heart and soul of Old Spice. Its lingering notes are laced with childhood memories and sweet nostalgia. However, as an aftershave, the longevity is left wanting even if its hardy. If the fragrance is applied at breakfast, it will have more-or-less wilted away by lunchtime.

A citrus blast in the head followed by a floral bouquet in the heart and a musky resinous base. There’s something for everyone in Old Spice’s timeless classic.

The citrus fades with the spices leading the nose to a surprisingly floral heart. Discernable notes of carnations and jasmine reveal themselves from the bouquet. These linger for a while until burned away by dry cinnamon notes that emerge as the base’s precursor.

All of the caregivers think I smell very wonderful . Thank you for your product In this review, we will study Old Spice’s contemporary iteration of the classic cologne with a focus on the following topics: Old Spice is heralded as a tasteful and elegant men’s cologne despite the modest price tag. Although it makes for an excellent daily fragrance, men have been known to save it for special occasions. Therefore, although best worn at the office, it wouldn’t go amiss at a formal gathering.

Old Spice History

I have an empty bottle of Old Spice that I have saved since the 70’s. It is glass, and has the gray stopper. Even though it is empty the great scent is still there, and far superior to the new “classic”. I wish I could get a full bottle of the original somewhere. Pushing 80, Old Spice eternally struggles to stay relevant in the face of a dynamic and changing market. In the 1970s, Old Spice transitioned into a fragrance brand and distanced itself from its shaving heritage. Yes I have fond memories of Old Spice too as it was an aftershave that my father owns. However, it wears it a loss less these days. Although he tends to have a preference for Brut, this is the one I associate with him most from during my much younger years.
