Quick help from Isfahan

.... promises the bottle (for frivolous minds) with dysfunctions in the subadominal area. Plainer characters recognize in the form rather the famous fat-baked Kringel from the U.S. called Donut whose designation apparently rather advises against consumption (Do not).
If Bijan Pakzad (shrill and formerly on Rodeo Drive resident fashion designer) had designed the flacon in Tehran at the time of Ayatollah Khomeini` would probably have been proclaimed at that time probably quite quickly the fatwa against him and he would have shared henceforth with Salman Rushdie the bower in London and kneaded erotic articles ... Rushdie has little hair left on his head and Mr Pakzad has since passed away.
Reference to the fragrance: - 0.5.
Bought the fragrance in the souk at a more than fair price from AquaFrisch (Merci), which maintains a decent and almost generous sale and offers its items (unlike many others) not more expensive but (oh God) no cheaper, than in online retail feil offers (applause).....
Bijan for men is, if you take the price into account, a veritable bomb, namely a spice bomb that makes you a dervish at the end of the day, so that the greasy donut almost comes up again. The opening is already quite promising - a soapy, spicy almost fruity start that makes the bobbles on your beaky shoes jingle. At the point is usually referred to the state-certified "thoroughbred perfumers" who can say to the individual notes rather what....
What follows in the DryDown was probably the biggest surprise: Although the fragrance to the vintage version (flacon in the stylized, small "b") was probably significantly trimmed you have for hours what of the sandalwood orgy, which you mistaken for incense. Wow! The, the, the tonka or vanilla that sends most here into ecstatic rapture is used so tastefully and subtly that even the "unsweet purists" don't mind it for a minute.
In short: For the price - a lot of ChaChaCha and no ChiChi at all... One does not even want to know how probably the vintage version (not the one of FiveStarFragrances) has smelled... so and tonight comes "The Masked Singer" in Farsi for study councils ;-)

The 80's was the age of fougères and they occupied the industry as orientals are doing today. And like always, only the nobles survive.
Bijan Men, although is regenerated in 1987, still has considerable charm and class and, in my idea, is one of the most innovative fougères ever that tends to chypre. It's around honey, moss, leather and clary sage. An ultradandy ultrachic heritage. And… among a collection of about 100 perfumes, it is what I wore in my wedding! Still splendid.

Great new acquisition!

It was only by chance that I came to enjoy this great fragrance. Strangely enough, I didn't notice it in the 1980s for whatever reason.

Already the first spray left me with no doubt that this is a fragrance that I like very much. Just my style: woody and spicy. If it comes from the same decade as the once so celebrated "Giorgio Beverly Hills", it is even possible to draw a few scent parallels, even if only marginally. The whole thing seems to me like a very successful mixture of "Terre D'Hermes", "L`Artisan Timbuktu" and a little "Tom Ford Noir Anthracite". Unfortunately I don't know the Vintage Vesion, but this new bottling has already convinced me very much and that at a very slim unbeatable dumping price! Unfortunately, the cap of the bottle needs getting used to and looks like a relic from the 1960s. Owners of the fragrances mentioned here should definitely test it here, if not already done!

Pacifier bling bottle with special fragrance for everyday use/ reformulation in the hole?

Oh yes... this bottle, in my opinion a very beautiful, yes different but this holes my curiosity every time - not only when I first discovered this, no, again and again I have to whether I want to apply the fragrance, or I instead of comic / book reading, sports, Netflix & co rummage, or what leisure activities here captivate one or possibly distract - again and again I grab Bijan men and this pacifier bling bottle.
Each time he pulls me into the spell - I marvel, a simplicity and simultaneous luxury in one - I feel the curves of the hole and yes the outside to explore here is just as much a pleasure as to let this fragrance work of art on itself, the inner values away from the hole, so to speak.

For me, we have a heavy smoky spicy oriental with clear vintage vibes, filled in all the nooks and crannies without a hole - the smoke is creamy underpinned, overall seductive - and there is a cuddly cozy feeling, a date in a smoky pub.

He also holds out the day, or the evening going into the night - but I feel Bijan very suitable for everyday use - especially natural, he definitely stands out, no otherwise sweet fragrance or next Fresh laundry, times what completely different...

And there now come my thoughts on reformulation, possibly even representative - clearly, the fragrance is now not a weak breeze, yet this monster, is also no longer there - in this point, the hole seems to have spread, yet it does not interfere with the fragrance image itself, nor is the "performance" also not underground, can even be seen in my opinion.

I will someday, I hope, find this ur-variant and add, but it will not diminish and change anything in my evaluation, possibly supplement.

Parfumo has yes definitely coined an eye on the subject of reformulation, even as an inactive reader, still unregistered reader, however, this batches thing is getting a bit too much for me even as an active writer and reader, or maybe I'm missing the perspective there.

Thanks for reading - enjoy the day to the fullest, don't fall into a deep hole ;)

Egg-laying pillow

"Bijan Men" was a blind buy, to Oscar de la Renta's "Pour Lui". I love classic masculine powerhouses, at the same time I usually avoid blind purchases, but at the price and hooked on the fragrance pyramid, I could not say no... And I regret nothing!

How does "Bijan Men" smell now? Typically for the time, the fragrance notes are so densely and compactly interwoven that it is difficult to identify individual components. From the beginning, the soapy oak moss is very present, joined by the spiciness of rosemary and nutmeg, sandalwood also plays not exactly restrained. A touch of lavender. Musk and patchouli? Yep, but rather in the base and restrained.
The individual ingredients also do not have to be errochen individually. Their interaction is what gives the full fragrance experience. Dense, somewhat loud and riotous, but at the same time absolutely harmonious. As the fragrance type diagram aptly suggests, there's something here for everyone. "Bijan Men" is for me spicy, fresh, oriental, slightly leathery-smoky, green, minmal earthy, quite animalic, and it fits every season (apart from high summer) to every occasion - the titular egg-laying Wollmilchsau!

...well, the bottle is really on the border of ridiculousness. The glass container with hole is still ok, but this oversized white plastic cap on it does not go at all. Anyway, it's the inner values that count. "Bijan Men" has plenty of those! I am more than happy with this blind purchase.
