As a big fan of Trumpers colognes I couldn't resist picking up a bottle of the discontinued Royal when I had the chance recently.
It goes on with a very unified, smooth, mid range accord. Very blended, not much obvious definition in individual notes. It immediately reminds me of several other things, most of them, but not all, Trumper related. I get strong associations with Spanish Leather, much spice, a bit of Eucris-like blackcurrant, a tiny touch of the strange milky aldehydic floral tones of Milk of Flowers, maybe a little rose, something like an old school powdery citrus, pepper, some guerlain-ish vanillic base notes (again a little like spanish leather). Also perhaps a little of Creeds Royal Delight too, with the unusual floral-leathers. There is a green component too and some dirt, moss and musk.
With all this, I still feel like I'm missing much....
So please, if you have smelled this, help me out and share your thoughts
