Bare fact of the matter is this got too long in the tooth. Im not old 70s80s kid but even I was late to the party when recommended this in 1987.ARAMIS have more recently moved on and left TUSCANNY behind. Dont know why, some sage reviewer will eventually tell us.However if you dont have any prior prejudice or brand snobbery, I would wager that this remains one of the most sophisticated male perfumes around.Heavy with sandlewood oil, it evokes the definition of aroma without the flowered stink that modern franchised brands are known for. It has a mature genuinely expensive flavour yet never becomes oppressive.Ladies do appear to respect it gents shouldnt feel overwhelmed by it.If a signature scent ages then this is perhaps the only genuine criticism that I think can ... MoreBare fact of the matter is this got too long in the tooth.

Indicating that the products are 2 Years and 8 Months old at the time of purchase.This product was compared against a 120ml4.1oz After Shave from the newer Blockbuster set EdT, Aftershave, Aftershave Balm, Body Shampoo, Deoderant Stick purchased from a reputable bricks and mortar perfume shop 012017. The Date Code on this 120ml is A86 which indicates 082016. There is no difference in colour, smell or lasting. Its the same product. If the Blockbuster set is genuine, then so is this product from Perfumes of London at a very reasonable price 20.97.Note The old Blockbuster set included soap on a rope was being significantly reduced, approx 13 off, at a well known UKwide high street pharmacy chain. It would make perfect sense that older stock is simply reduced in price.There are plenty of reviews and opinions on what people think it smells like, so I wont add mine.This product does smell different on different people. Its advisable to sample a fragrance before purchasing, and to also leave the fragrance to develop throughout the day, as the initial smell can be quite different to what remains after even 30 minutes.Compared to the Eau de Toilette, the After Shave is softer in scent and doesnt last as long. However the Aftershave is meant to be used after shaving, on skin made more sensitive. The ingredients list is the same as EdT except missing in the After Shave is Benzyl Salicylate, Farnesol, Benzyl Alcohol and AlphaIsomethyl Ionone.

Hello, My name is Bobby and I have been wearing Arimas Classic, since introduced to me in 1971 by a good friend. Aramis is not a cologne for every man. Sometimes our chemical make-up, along with the result of perspiration, can produce very positive results and on very rare occasions, just the direct opposite. The great thing about Fragrance X is you have a very good open bottle return policy. Another item that stopped me from using Aramis for a short time until I found out about Fragrance X, is cost. Where I live all, and I mean all, retail and specialty stores have priced themselves almost out of the business of men's cologne. I worked as a Carpenter for over 40 years until retiring. I worked very hard then and still, to this day. When I'm working, I like to smell ... MoreHello, My name is Bobby and I have been wearing Arimas Classic, since introduced to me in 1971 by a good friend. Aramis is not a cologne for every man.

The great thing about Fragrance X is you have a very good open bottle return policy. Another item that stopped me from using Aramis for a short time until I found out about Fragrance X, is cost. Where I live all, and I mean all, retail and specialty stores have priced themselves almost out of the business of men's cologne. I worked as a Carpenter for over 40 years until retiring. I worked very hard then and still, to this day. When I'm working, I like to smell pleasant even with sweat just pouring off of me. Sometimes I wish my former coworkers, and people I come into contact with daily, thought as I do about Personal Hygiene. Thank you Fragrance X, for being out there for me when only a few months ago, I was content to believe the days of smelling that real manly man smell of Aramis was over. lastly, the cost of an 8oz. yes, can you believe it? I haven't seen an 8oz. bottle of Aramis in over 40 years. And the beauty of all this is, I bought two bottles at a 75% savings compared to anything in a retail store locally. Thanks. p.s. If you are not buying your mans cologne from Fragrance X, then you STINK!!!
