I went back to the store and they didn't have it anymore. After months of looking I finally found it from that same ebay seller that gupts posted for $89.99. It seems like she raised the price now but it still isn't a bad price. I'm surprised at all the negative and neutral reviews of it in the Basenotes directory. Supposedly this is a reformulation of the original as seen here:

I plan on buying this one soon too which seems to be similar and has some good reviews here on BN.
Yes, they are very similar. I had the "original" one you referred to in your post but ended up selling it. I think Scent 79 is a lot more comforting and I enjoy wearing it more. I think the situation here is similar to Polo Modern Reserve which a lot of people here hate over the original Polo. I, for one, prefers PMR over the original.
