Fragrance Reviews by JYvdK

I really admire this one, again,for sentimental reasons: the late sixties,the era when a charter flight to Alicante, and it's minimalist design Airport was still considered exclusive and people wore Cardin suits to board!

Here's the trick; When I bought it to bring back these memories, I did note it wasn't as strong and sharp as I remembered it; Then my mother explained me my dad's trick:

He used to place a cigarette in the bottle, a Gauloises to be precise, something the lads did in the French para's. This definatly gave it the edge!

( The author of this review cannot be held responsable for any individual trying this odd addition...!!)Good luck!

This Dior is I think nice , but nothing special.it is too safe, maybe ok for office use, or as a Christmas gift for a non- user;to me it's just like one of the other hunderds of fragances that come out every year;time will tell...

When it comes to vertivers this is definately my favorite.It is the first fragance I can remember as my father, your typical 60's French dandy used lots and lots of it.It is clean,and not spoilt be to many added top and middle notes.Great for the summer, but all in all perhaps not for everyone.

Patou pour Homme, a real Kerleo gem!One cannot compare this opulent fragance with the stronger fragances out today, and I cannot understand, like many of you surely, why it has been discontinued!It represents that what what a fragance should be about; stimulating the imagination,the scence of luxury, the scent of the mystique,this fragance does all that!
