Definitely not for the faint-hearted, this is one powerful scent. Albiet, it may conjure up memories of the Eighties, but what's wrong with that (I say)? It truely remains around as an archetypal fragrance, that no imitators have perfectly replicated (hear that P.Diddy?). Just take a quick look at the BN community, for what tends to be considered as one of the "power scents" and this creation tends to take the lead (with a runnerup being Creed's other "dated" frag, Vintage Tabaróme). No need here to list the notes, as previous posters have already covered this topic quite proficiently. Two small sprays is all you need for strong projection (read "sillage"). Longevity is quite strong as well. Bought 3 250ml flacons - a lifetime supply!

Dzongkha - was it worth the wait? I find it turning into quite an earthy smell, a bit too soft on the incense, a slight floral note (but not overwhelming as in the beginnings of Dior Homme's iris), but still nicely balanced overall. I do detect a slight leather accord towards its base though. Quite soft for a leather (nothing hardcore as the one seen in Montale's CdA). Sillage seems a bit weak though. I'll stick with my favorite L'A for now: T42
