  These days, it takes guts to keep releasing perfumes like this. The Soldano line offers incredible value, and the current versions uphold the essence of the past with dignity. I chuckle imagining that if a young person today stumbled upon this original in an old cellar, the association with a hairy-chested bloke driving a Series 2 Golf GTI would be instant. But there’s much more: a harmonious parade of elegant, uncommon notes that conquer old-school lovers. It’s a sweet-and-sour, multi-layered scent, perfect for fern enthusiasts, though not purely fern; jasmine and rose add refinement before sinking into a earthy, herbaceous dimension, turning sour, spiced, and soapy—informally elegant with all its chords clear. It’s a daytime fragrance that lasts from morning till night, surprising for the price. It’s always good to revive sensations that only certain calibre perfumes can, making you feel imaginative, powerful, or simply at ease with an undeniably old-school flavour.

  The olfactory quality is brutal for the price. It smells masculine and sophisticated without veering into formality; it’s a top-tier chypre. I think Jerry Drake nailed it calling it ‘bittersweet’, as it balances citrus, spicy, and floral notes in a sublime way. It’s one of the most balanced fragrances in my collection, which, in my view, makes it perfectly wearable today for men aged 30 and up; does it smell retro? Yes, does it smell old-fashioned? No. It’s a real gem in terms of value for money. The only flaw is that on my skin the longevity is just about right, but I forgive it for the sheer pleasure of wearing it.
