Managed to find a fragrance locally that has eluded me for quite some time and for only $39.99 AUD. Another discontinued Aramis men’s classic. I’m not outright dismissive of newer fragrances as a good fragrance is a good fragrance regardless of when it’s released, however, they just don’t hold the same appeal to me as these older men’s scents do. Perhaps it has to do with the sort of accords and notes that are popular nowadays. Too much ambroxan and syrupy sweet. Or a lot of contemporary scents have the sort of timelessness I’m looking for, unfortunately. No, I think I’ll take one of the classic oakmoss scents any day of the week.
