Smells like Indiana Jones hunting for lost treasure. This vintage Morris is a straight shot from the 70s: tough, unforgiving and intensely bold. Citrus notes over wood, cedar and a hint of spice and lavender that won’t leave you indifferent. It’s dense, dark and evokes a thousand stories. A wild yet sophisticated proposition for men of steel, Clint Eastwood type. Starts strong but improves with time, leaving a potent trail worthy of a cologne. A classic with its own personality.
My story with Morris is recent: I received it, tried it, read Josesan’s review and, seeing it was cheap and vintage, I bought it. It arrived this morning and keeps its promise. It’s a typical 70s cologne: a fresh citrus opening that dries down to dirty, woody and green tones. Smells like old-school barbershop, without reaching the ferns of the 80s. In Spain we had myths like Napoleon or Otelo, body-rich yet soft colognes for the man who has just shaved and wants something discreet that won’t clash with smoke. Morris fits perfectly: it evolves from bitter citrus to swampy woods and is far from boring. Very masculine, classy and lasts about five hours. Ideal for a silk robe, a brandy and the newspaper. A key step before the fern boom.
Perfumerie continues to surprise. I’ve just discovered MORRIS COLOGNE FOR MEN, a strange and original scent that I’m not sure I’d wear daily, but it’s worth trying. It’s a bitter, sombre fougère. My bottle has vertical fluting, typical of vintage batches. The initial notes are dense and damp: forest leaves about to rot, mouldy moss, fallen and decomposing citrus, with soft aldehydes. It evokes landscapes by Friedrich and Constable, Gothic ruins and mist. Lavender, soft tobacco and patchouli give it a light soapy air, yet it retains that abrupt tone of ravines and acidic leaf litter. It’s a completely new combination for me, impacting me as much as Kouros or Grey Flannel. I only recommend this to lovers of forgotten perfumes and those seeking new aromatic textures.
