I am going to be getting this in the mail soon. I am really excited about. It seems really powerful and bold. Anybody got anything to say about it, good or bad???

Warm and spicy. Definitely not boring. The orange/patchouli reminds me of Tabu.

Hmmm...this is based on memory, but I remember a powerful scent, powdery and sweet with chypre notes. I think it smelled nice, but too mature a scent for me back then. I think I was too distracted with the scent of Giorgio Beverly Hills for Men that I thought things had to follow suit to top that creation!

I'm impressed you found a bottle of KL...good going!

It's a good one. In wearing it, it's not quite as bold as I originally thought, but it has loads of presence--and it's actually more wearable than I thought it would be. It is an excellent 80's fragrance--as good as most of the 80's fragrances and the best of Lagerfeld as far as I'm concerned.

I seem to be able to find plenty of discontinued classics. I can't lay my hands on Niche frags, they seem non existent in RSA but I regularly spot at least 95% of the discontinued frags that BNoters harp on. Whats really great is that I see most of them for extremely cheap prices!

Got my eye on a bottle of JHL next

Ditto.

It's an old style oriental - the kind you can wear to work without lots of people thinking you'd rather be somewhere else partying. Very wearable.
