  This leather floral is the evolution of those eighties ferns and cypresses projected into the nineties. It remains old school in its three-phase evolution, yet Moschino PH is neither as abrupt nor as serious as the leathers of that era; it simply preserves and evolves by placing the floral notes front and centre rather than the citrus or aromatic ones. It opens with fresh, soft, and non-acidic citrus, thanks to the salvia sclarea which accentuates the flowers, makes them more enduring, and keeps the citrus, spices, and woods in the background. The dry, powdery Florentine iris stands out, becoming the protagonist as it dries alongside the balms, moss, and leather, leaving a residual trail where the leather is not powerful but persistent, almost bitter and deep like a Pirandello play, with Moschino PH halfway between the real and the imaginative. The gold wrapping of hearts and spades and a bottle mimicking a fine whisky signal that it is aimed at a mature man, no longer a lad, who knows how to appreciate such a scent with good taste.

  This floral-leather is the evolution of the 80s fern and leather fragrances into the 90s. It remains old-school in three phases, but Moschino PH isn’t as abrupt or serious; it preserves and evolves by putting the floral notes in the foreground instead of the citrus and aromatic ones. Soft, non-acidic citrus opens up due to the salvia sclarea, which accentuates the flowers, makes them long-lasting and keeps citrus, spices and woods in the background. Dry, powdery iris stands out as it dries, dominating with balms, moss and leather, leaving a persistent trail, almost bitter and deep like a Pirandello play, halfway between the real and the imaginative. Golden bottle with hearts and spikes imitating a whisky, for a mature man who appreciates good taste. Rating: 7

  Well, very similar to Bel Ami, especially at the start, although throughout the development, to a lesser extent, it gives me a fresh aroma, like lemon. From the beginning, that leather-cypress is noticeable thanks to the combination with styrax and moss, almost a carbon copy of Bel Ami. And that’s about it, truth be told; good performance, perhaps not as strong as the vintage nor as airy as the current version. Perhaps a bit sweeter and balsamic in the deep dry-down. A classy scent without doubt.

  Very similar to Bel Ami at first, though fresh like lemon throughout the development. From the start, it smells of leather-chypre thanks to styrax and moss, almost identical to Bel Ami. Not much more to say, truthfully; good performance, perhaps not as strong as the vintage nor as airy as the current version. Maybe sweeter and balsamic when dry. A classy scent without doubt.

  Quite intense; the opening is odd for me, but it improves in the dry-down. Well-defined spices and leather, natural with a smoky and raw nuance. A difficult scent to take on; I’ll try it later or in cooler weather to see if it evolves with some freshness. For now, it doesn’t convince me; Ted Lapidus Altamir is much better on flowers.

  Quite intense; the opening is a little strange to my taste, seeming to improve a bit in its development, at least in my perception. Spices and leather are well present and feel natural in tone, something smoky and raw. It is a type of scent that I find a little difficult to assimilate; I will try wearing it at another time of day or in cooler temperatures to see if a bit of freshness makes it evolve differently; for now, it doesn’t convince me much. As for floral notes, Altamir by Ted Lapidus is far superior.

  One of my top picks from the 90s. Intense, sexy and fresh, yet nothing childish. I’m surprised it doesn’t carry whisky or something similar, as that note was almost dominant (perhaps masked by the sweet notes) and there was also coffee. It was a joy to buy Davidoff Horizon and have it remind me of this, even if it’s a bit more herbal.

  One of my favourites from the nineties. Intense, sexy, fresh but by no means childish. It seems strange to me that it doesn’t contain whisky or something similar, as it was almost a predominant note (perhaps it is the salvia sclarea mixed with the sweets), and it also had a hint of coffee. It was a pleasant surprise buying Davidoff Horizon and having it remind me of it, although it is a bit more herbal.
