Lancaster - A classic
With my perfumes it behaves, as with my favorite football club, which belongs to my heart, which is not changed.
In the spring and summer I use for 25 years Acqua di Parma Cologna, Hermes d'Orange Verte or Harry Lehmann's Orange and in autumn & winter for 35 years Lancaster Eau de Toilette Concentree.
Lancaster is one of the very few oriental-heavy fragrances that does not smell vulgar, crude or dirty on me, but elegant, clean and neat.
I first bought it when I was 20, it smelled sensual and mysterious to me, like a big wide world, had that unpretentious bottle, was affordable in price and available at our small town department store.
Every time I put it on and closed my eyes, I saw myself traveling to New York, London, Shanghai and Paris. An elegant lady, with a leather travel bag, cashmere scarf, and travel journal.
That feeling hasn't changed to this day.
For me, a fully perfect perfume, with an excellent price-performance ratio.

The ultimate fragrance even for the hottest summer days
The only fragrance I can stand even on hot summer days, which still surrounds me with a touch of elegance and freshness despite sweating.
As with lemon ice cream, the art is that it should taste like lemon, but the balance between sour and sweet is the art.
Here it doesn't smell like a rest stop, but like a relaxed ride in a cabriolet along the Amalfi coast, with a light breeze, on a hot summer day.
I've been using this fragrance for almost 30 years now and every summer I think you could get something new.
Then I smell my way through 30 new perfumes to end up with one of my two classics (Hermes Orange Verte/Aqua die Parma Colognia)
The term timeless fits here like ass on bucket.
