Gtabasso

Impact by Bergerac is a cologne spray with citrus, carnation and benzoin with orris and sandalwood; soft, spicy, creamy and powdery sort of like Bellodgia and Shalimar had a baby. This history of the perfumer is interesting. He was very influential in the industry and with Revlon.

powdery and lovely with violets but green and grassy and a bit bitter with peach, coriander, freesia, musk, sandalwood; a pretty powdery vintage fragrance with a bitter edge, not your average violet fragrance

The notes are marigold, cockscomb, cocoa, sugar, votives, honey. This is a lovely sweet gourmand boozy chocolate with a little waxy and bitter edge like dark chocolate and ash. I only have a large sample and would definitely like a larger size.

My nose says hyacinth, narcissus, lily, aldehydes, oakmoss, sandalwood. Very sweet in the top dry and creamy in the base without being soapy or powdery. Very light like a cologne of its time. Glad I snatched this rare beauty when I could at a great price. It's a collector's piece.

I have the Eiffel Tower bottle unopened with the plastic stopper sealing it. I opened it today, and it is as fresh as if it were made yesterday. So lovely and unique. The only way I can describe this is not really a chypre with any detectable oakmoss but a lovely odd unique powdery floral with some aldehydes that smells like nothing else. I can't detect distinct notes. There's a little musk, maybe some narcissus and osmanthus or orange blossom. Just beautiful.
