A forgotten classic!
This rich leather chypre had been part of my coming of age in high school. The "cowboy" thing was going around. I was not a cowboy, yet I knew what a brilliant chypre this was for about $5 a bottle! I still have my original splash cologne and not a note has gone off.
It opens casually and leads into some dirty flowers-lavender, jasmine and a touch of rose. Then a soft, warm leather sits amid sandalwood, oakmoss, patcholi and vetiver. Its very comfortable and self assuring.
It was from an age of innocence for Ralph Lauren. The company had just started out and this affordable launch was common in its time. Ironically, its affordability did affect the quality. I see bottles going for around $100 or more on e-bay now.
